00:01Jeff Woods, this guy was the architect of comedy as we know it today.
00:05When I saw him, I said, that's what I want to do.
00:07Make the audience not be able to breathe the whole time.
00:10Next legend.
00:11No! See what had happened was!
00:14He's so funny, I actually want to break him off something.
00:17It's been a long time. I told him every goddamn thing he knew.
00:20If you're talking about somebody who is the best,
00:23then I think that the name Jeff Woods says it all.
00:27What a shame.
00:28What happened to Jeff Woods was a damn shame.
00:32When you black, you can't do all them type of drugs, man.
00:34You gotta be like me. Chill out, smoke a little weed, have a little drink, that's it.
00:39He went out there, hang with the wrong folks. White folks.
00:42I understand the situation, you know I'm an addict myself,
00:44so I'm proud of him, cause he's coming back, man.
00:47Jeff was one of the first guys I met when I got to L.A.
00:50We clicked right away.
00:51But you accept your friends for who they are, good or bad.
00:54And that brother Jeff, he my friend.
00:57He got a lot of nerves showing his face around here.
01:01That boy was nobody when Grant found him.
01:04Grant put his heart and soul in the guy in that boy.
01:08He's the only one that can stop him.
01:09He's the only one that can stop him.
01:14Grant flowers.
01:15Enchante.
01:16What's up?
01:17Oh my.
01:18That's cool.
01:20Word.
01:21I just knew no drug could hook me, you know.
01:24So I just, every time I got high after that, I was trying to get back to that feeling.
01:28The only one that can stop Jeff is Jeff.
01:29He's the only one that can stop him.
01:30I started writing Iris my first week in rehab.
01:31I write her and mail her a letter every day.
01:32I love Jeffrey.
01:33We've known each other a long time.
01:34I don't know how she does it.
01:35I don't trust Jeff as far as I can throw him.
01:37And I can't throw Jeff from me to you.
01:39I'm terrified.
01:40He's been away for a minute, he's coming back.
01:42I can't even move the last time I actually did any standard.
01:46Mr. Jeff.
01:47What?
01:48No, see what had happened was.
