      @@PotatoMaGobinus If I remember correctly, in an interview, Will Smith talks about how James Avery (Uncle Phil) was hard on him every time they rehearsed this scene, telling him his acting wasn't quite there yet.
      When Will cried here, those tears were shed not only because of this heartbreaking scene, but for how much he wanted to impress Avery.
      That's why Avery whispered to him "Now THAT'S acting" when they hugged.

    Will didn't know Lou growing up, as he left his wife and Will when he was very young. Will had no interaction with him until he turned up that day at the college to see him. I still have no idea why Lou decided to come back and act like he was going to be a dad, when it seemed he only returned to see him temporarily. I imagine that he did this intending to try to get back into Will's life, saw that the responsibility would be too much, and ran off again. Sad how many people experience this exact scenario in real life.
    Will and James Avery really knocked it out of the park in this episode, and this is when Will began to gain real popularity and was taken seriously as an actor. You can even hear Ashley and Hillary crying in the background near the end. People can say what they want about Will now, his life is his private business, but he really is a fantastic actor.

    I raised my son from the age of 4, he's about to be 24. Last year he met his biological father. My son's girlfriend and my wife were very upset for me. Afterwards his girlfriend asked him "how could you hang out with him after Mike raised you as his own?". He told her "I just had to know, but my dad ( me) will always be my real dad". That was one of the biggest blessings of my life to hear. I was never really upset about it myself, because I lost my father when I was 2. I would give anything to meet him, so I understand. But people are flawed and I haven't walked in that man's shoes. That's the kind of thinking I want my kids to have. Great reaction BTW. I love everything you guys do

    I’d say the whole basis of Will’s joking and clowning nature was to cover up the fact that he was really hurting over this. In the pilot Phil chastised Will for not taking life seriously.
    But fun fact both Ben Vereen and James Avery appeared in and episode of Webster. Vereen as Webster’s uncle who wanted custody of him, and Avery as the judge who would decide the case.

    This episode... this scene, right here, is when I knew that Will Smith was gonna be a great actor. When you can evoke the emotions that he did... now, that is something special. R*I*P* Uncle Phil

    I really feel his pain. I do. My father, who was never in my life except a few times before, waited until after my mom passed away to tell me that he never wanted me, that I was a mistake he wished he never had. Words can't even describe how I felt from that day on. It took me many years to finally forgive him and move on with my life.

    Not to take away from the scene,, cause Will's performance was brilliant. But that exchange from Lou and Uncle Phil was intense. The actor who played Lou, sold it.

    Philosopher Allan Bloom said that to a child being abandoned by a parent is even worse than the death of a parent, precisely because the abandonment was a choice. Not to say that experiencing a parent's death is not traumatic, but abandonment leaves special scars. This is why the children of divorce often have such a hard time making relationships work.

    The look James Avery gives Ben Verine at 4:02 said a lot.
    The "you too. Lou" was the end of any relationship they were ever gonna have.
    After this scene, Ben Verine said in an interview that he broke down when he walked out of the scene because he has kids and can never imagine a father doing that to his kids.

    The only thing i learned from my father was the way not to be a father. My kids have their father, i always tell them, “Always remember Daddy loves you, and you will always have your father”
