I don't know why the punch line on Zero's anecdote was separated. Any suggestions on how to keep them together?

I read this anecdote: Zero was at rehearsal for a show and was cracking down this young actor who was playing a private, he told jokes, danced and even gave him an evil eye and destroyed him, the guy couldn't stop laughing so he went to change his clothes for those of a monk so he had the hood almost covering his face, but Zero recognized him and kept staring at him, the guy bowed is head to avoid eye contact, so Zero went a little down and so was him, they kept going down almost to the floor..

@alfredgama2 Trying to keep a straight face when Zero was trying to make you laugh had to be impossible :) -Michael

Zero was sui generis, the great superclown of the American theatre, AND the first and greatest Tevye:) --

Anyone notice that song was sampled for Gwen Stefani's 2004 song, "Rich Girl"?
