Sounds Like: A man is walking down the street and accidently falls into a deep hole. A doctor walks by and the man yells up to him "Doc, I'm down here, can you help me out!?". The doctor writes him a prescription, drops it down the hole and walks on. A priest walks by the hole, and the man yells up to him, "Father, I'm down here, can you help me?". The priest says a prayer for the man and walks on. A friend walks by and the man yells up to him, "I'm down here, can you help me?" and his friend jumps down into the hole with him. The man says, "you idiot, now we're BOTH down here!". His friend says "yeah, but I've been down here before, and I know the way out". We are that friend.
