1 yells: The verb "to yell" means to shout, scream or cry out loudly. When someone "yells" they raise their voice, or increase the volume of their voice. In this dialogue, Donna tells Bruno that Horatio once "yelled" at her for an hour, and then brought her a cactus; presumably to apologize.
2 joker: A "joker" is someone who plays jokes or tricks often. The term is often synonymous with a comedian (though not a professional comedian) or a clown (though not a professional or circus clown). The "joker" is also a card in a deck of playing cards. There are 2 of them in a deck of 54, and when they are used, they are often "wild cards". In this dialogue, Bruno fondly calls Horatio "a joker", and then confesses that he loves the little guy.
