Okay, so there's a douche who is #1 in the class (I add here, he's taking the bad teacher for UCC next semester on the reasoning that "all the other good students are taking Meicklejohn, so I should have an easy time getting the high a"). He's generally a jerk too, won't help or work with anyone.
Anyway, in evidence, here is the question he asked, when we were talking about the balance between probative value and risk of prejudice:
"Is there ever evidence that is so extraordinarily prejudicial that you just have to let it in?"
And he wasn't misspeaking. That was actually what he meant to ask, as was made clear by later comments.
