133. Bizarre.

Will Smith initially seemed amused by the joke while Jada seemed stunned. The punch seemed fake. I wasn’t stunned until Will started yelling. My first thought was that he only felt the need to react after realizing Jada was unhappy with the joke.

Chris seemed underwhelmed by the punch or slap or whatever it was, but he was extra-whelmed by the yelling and cursing.

Sad if any part of it was real; sad if any part of it was fake.
