Answer=I did find a glimpse of Humor in Scene 1. The examples are:

1- This is my Dad. The most miserable man in existence. This is my mum. She’s OK. The only thing wrong with my mum is that she made my little brother. He’s the little squirt you just saw. (Act 1, Scene 1, p.g. 19, 9th paragraph).

2- Wanna bet? I’ve got a great history test all afternoon. If there’s one thing I hate more than Rhodes, it’s history.  

(Act 1, Scene 1, p.g. 20, 1st paragraph).

I hope this helps :D
