Answer:

The comic relief serves as an avenue to brighten the atmosphere of the tension in the audience

Explanation:

Shakespeare choose to begin the scene with a lighter mood because one of the main cast of the play is in a tense and dire situation which affects the mood of the audience because of their love for the character so by introducing some small comic diversion would lighten the mood.
