5 stars for evil. Let me tell you why.
1.) This is clearly a staged heckling. It's fairly obvious from the expertly placed camera ready to immediately catch the lady heckler right next to her in mid-sentence after saying one word.
In live tapings, this doesn't happen hardly ever, due to the roaming nature of the cameras and the near impossibility of pinpointing where voices are coming from unless a full dialogue takes place between the comedian and the random stranger in the dark in a room full of noisy strangers.
2.) Either this was filmed for his documentary "Heckler", a deconstructionist feature he produced on the nature of heckling and how comedians get revenge, or this was a hamfisted attempt to show that "he still got it!" after making the documentary and his fans (whoever those are) were expecting it to come up in his stand-up special since he is now associated with "owning" hecklers.
3.) The fact that this was staged means that every one of those comebacks was written beforehand as ULTIMATE BURNS.
