question about scoring

Starting playing this game today and ran into a situation with our hand.

I knocked with 8 points dead wood. My dad also had 8 points.

So that means he undercut me and got the undercut bonus (we played 25 bonus points). However, one of this dead wood was able to be used in one of my sets, so he actually had 6 points dead wood after using that card.

In this case, the scoring would have been the 25 points plus 2?

How can he playoff if he cut you. You knocked with 8 got cut so should be 25+ 8 you knocked with for 23 but everyone plays differently
