That's another one of theose rules.

Only ask why to your own witness
and then only when you're sure what he/she will say.

Another rule is never to ask the question if you don't know the response.

I'll give you an hysterical example of that mistake made by an opponent in a recent trial.

It was all I could do not to fall out of my chair laughing
when he heard the most unexpected response.

And normally, I have a perfect poker face in trial.
I had to dig my fingernails into my palms to keep a
sufficiently straight face.

It's actually harder not to laugh than not to react to
bad testimony.
