If you were disappointed
This guy – honestly.
To be fair, he was somewhat taken aback by the fact that KJ is sharper than he is and knows a lot more about the subject than he does and was not shy or deferential about it. In short he reacted to her the way your average clueless sexist bloke does react to an uppity woman who is cleverer than he is.
Yes. And related to that was the fact that he didn’t do his homework.
He didn’t do it because he assumed that since he’s a man his view (whatever it turned out to be) would be the correct one and he’d be able to demonstrate the superiority of his position over that of a mere woman because he is a being of pure reason while she’s some flibbertigibbet shrill karen.
The consternation in his face is a thing to behold, as he realises he has completely lost control of the conversation from the outset. Because of the aforementioned knowledge and sharpness.
He really deserves some kind of prize for epic smugness.
