He tries to get the teacher's attention in a lecture and ends up looking silly; but they meet again a bit later when they discover the dead body of Martin's landlord. The word choice in the script, Wood's lines especially, attempt to make the characters sound like the Oxonians they supposedly are, but everything that comes out of their mouths is really nothing but pure idiocy.

But with a clinker in the lead role, the film never takes off, and plays like a pretentious intro to philosophy 101. Very cute example of someone remembering what he was doing by looking only at the most recent step and reconstructing the rule each time, which at 3 -> 9 was ambiguous. The movie lags at certain points, and some portions of the movie seemed a bit pointless and just distracted from the overall narrative. Perhaps other readers can help on this one.
