0 for 2? and some other trivial questions

I love this musical, and I love Emmett! He's so cute, scruffy, intellegent, and adorable!

Anyway, here're some lines I do not understand. I am not even sure if I caught the words correctly since English is not my first language. Any help would be appreciated.

- what does it mean by Professor Callahan's line "your 0 for 2," when demanding Emmett to get the alibi from Elle?

- I have no idea about Elle's line "They walk in a two, They walk out a ten" in Take It Like A Man. What are the two and the ten refer?

- Paullette's "I have not had any yeager(?)" just after she saw Elle's greek chorus. What is she talking about??

Another question is what Paulette and Elle are talking by hand gesture after Emmett brings a Chrismas gift to Elle. Does Paulette found Emmett attractive? To herself? Or she is just teasing Elle?

Thanks in advance!

I think I can help.

Callahan tells Emmett to "led the team and get an alibi" Emmett doesn't do those 2 things so Callahan is saying he got 0 done out of the two.

I think "they walk in a 2, they walk out a 10" mean like their rating on how hot he looks but I'm not 100% sure, lol.

Yeager is an alcoholic drink so when she shes the greek chorus she thinks she hallucinating so she is stating that she is not drunk. lol

Yea, Paulette is kind of teasing Elle but saying that like he is cute or he is perfect for you or something.

Hope this helped! :D

Jägermeister is the booze she is referring to.
