Re:The Weekly Idiom: To be caught with your pants down - 2008/05/22 23:14
It means that he was "caught" in an unexpected situation. to be "caught with your pants" down means to be unprepared. It could be used in an ambush, for example: We caught the enemy with their pants down when we invaded their camp at night, or something like that. Does that make it any easier to understand?
