Character mistake: Ms. Lewis said, "Mr. Buddy, you may not have improved your handwriting in maths, for which, this once, in lieu of your intensified efforts, we will be willing to give you the benefit of the doubt, but you have improved your score." "In light of" - not "in lieu of" - would make sense. But if a student's numbers on math homework are illegible, the teacher should NOT give the benefit of the doubt, especially when doing so changes the ranks of other students to the point of being lower. (00:36:07)
Suggested correction: It's not known that his numbers were illegible. The audience may be led to think that he followed advice and made his numbers hard to read, but there's no evidence to prove that's what happened. The teacher saying that his handwriting hadn't improved isn't the same as saying it had gotten worse.
Ma: I didn't come up the loch in a bubble.
