A "humorous anecdote" is .
A "humorous anecdote" is a funny tale.
a funny tale: An anecdote is a short account or story, usually describing an interesting incident. Bruno refers to Trey's story about the bottles of perfume as "humorous" or funny. A "tale" is another word for an "account" or "story". Don't confuse a "tale" with a "tail", which animals use to keep their balance and a dog "waggles" when it is excited. Note the difference in spelling even though they are pronounced exactly the same way.
a dangerous situation: A "dangerous situation" is a situation which is hazardous or delicate in some way. This is not what is meant by "a humorous anecdote".
a kind of gazelle: A gazelle is a small, fast, graceful antelope found in Africa and Asia. This is not what Bruno is referring to in the dialogue.
a huge relief: The word "huge" means "very large". A "relief" (in this context) is the easing of a burden or distress, such as pain, anxiety, or oppression. For example "Oh what a relief, I have found my passport just in time". This is not what is meant by a "hilarious anecdote".
