That's embarrassing, all right.
Francis, if the transmission is overfilled it leads to pressure and it tends to push oil out the dipstick tube. If yours has a very tight fit, it may have been under pressure, and spit out when you let off the pressure. Check the fluid level from cold, but after a short warm-up spin. Then see if you need to take out some oil. Joe

I dunno Noob.
I'm kinda hoping it wasn't the way he pulled the dipstick.

If it was that hot, I would change the fluid. It probably got burnt and will lead to failure. I would also get an external filter and cooler installed right away. Heat will be the end of your tranny if it has not already been damaged.
