Please help me understand “ give comic relief ". Thank you！

Answer

A comic relief is the character in an otherwise serious movie, book, or drama, which makes the viewer or reader laugh. The comic relief is usually a part of the supporting cast, and usually (but not always!) a friend of the main character.
