» Accidental innuendo

reflex action
I don't know if this is innuendo but it is a social cock up that i was reminded of on reading the question so here it goes.

I was at this bbq with a bunch of people i didn't know and one particular person i didn't like, as he stood around by the grill outside generally full of himself and getting cockier still. well the friend hosting the bbq was doing it at her mother's house and her mother could not help moving about trying to get stuff done. He was mocking everybody around him.
Enter mother to ask him a favour. Although she had trouble finding the right words for it as she stuttered to ask him for a hand
"sorry there. Could you do me a...would you do me a... would you do me a...?"
So instead of prompting the right word out of her or assuming it he said,
"Eh...no i wouldn't do you" finishing with a smile at which point everybody in the party went quiet.
Does innuendo count if it's intentional?
