A little backstory to this clip before you watch it:

Will Smith’s father abandoned him and his mother when he was a child, and when Will was finally getting into show business and making a name for himself, he tried to snake his way back into his life like nothing happened. Will co-wrote this episode, and James Avery (Uncle Phil) said “this scene was the hardest thing I’ve ever had to shoot in my life. Every emotion, every word.. that was Will”

Will was actually supposed to play it off and then walk away, and there was originally an alternate scene that was supposed to happen, but he actually completely cut out what was supposed to be said, and did all of his own dialogue. The hug at the end of this scene is completely genuine, and this was a stepping stone in Will’s career where he started to take on the “do what feels, sounds, and looks right” approach to his acting.

So I’ll just leave this here. Enjoy. 

it’s sad that so many people relate to this

This is my tenth time watching but the first time reblogging

ditto on that. every time this episode replays on nick at nite or something and it gets to this scene i get really emotional and well i’ve seen it on tumblr quite a couple times but reading that little additional bit… that explains why this scene is so strong. i’d venture to say it’s probably one of the best scenes in tv history.
