Yeah, WaIter. Hi, it's George.

with the Lockwise HeIping Hand account.

Now, I know it's your baby,

So, no probIems. We'II see you on Monday.

Don't worry about it.

-No, I wiII not.

George, yes. Where is George?

-I wouId Iike to speak to him.
-I don't know.

I don't even know who you are, young Iady.

-George.
-Thank God.

George, who is this young Iady?

-Here, honey.
-That's...

I can't do this.

That's my wife, Mom.

No. She's too young.

How oId is she?

We were married nine years ago, remember?

She's nine years oId?

Our marriage is nine years oId,
our marriage.

She's the second one.

No. I adored the other one.

I know, Mom, but,
you know, she tried to kiII me.

No, she didn't.
That was just a IittIe hit-and-run.

Yeah, weII, I was in traction for two months.

I don't remember that.

-Here you go.
-I Iike this one.

-WeII, that's the most popuIar one.
-Yeah.

There you go.

-We aren't done with this.
-Yes, I know. I know.

And why are you wearing a shirt and tie
on a Saturday?

I have to go into the office.

-You're going into the office?
-Yes.

-When?
-Now.

George, aren't you forgetting something?

No, I'm not.

I Iove you.

Nice try. Your son.

You promised him you wouId take him
to his basebaII game today.

I'm not teIIing him this time. You do it.

Honey, I'II be back in time.
The game doesn't start untiI 2:00.

1 :00.

I'II be back.

Mom, Dad, Grandma isn't eating.

God, I hate oId peopIe.

Watch your mouth, young Iady.

Why? It's not Iike she understands
anything we're saying.

You know what? I've had
just about enough of your attitude.

HeIIo? You Iistening?

iPod. They were made
to ignore the stepmother.

George?

Honey, wouId you take those things off,
pIease, and Iisten to your mother?

Okay, she is not my mother.

She's the mother of that thing.

-You're the thing.
-You're a thing.

-You're a thing, sister.
-Don't caII me that.

Dad, I'm reaIIy excited
about the game today.

It's gonna be so cooI having you there.

Jeremy's dad is aIways there,
but he yeIIs at me if I miss the baII.

WeII, that's not gonna happen today, son.

Now, I've got to run to the office,

but I'II be back in time
to take you to your game.

You promise?

Scout's honor.

Don't forget. I:00.

He's not coming.

That was the Star Trek sign.

He's a Trekkie.

And so am I.

-Morning, Jackie.
-HeIIo.

Don't you wish it was this quiet every day?

Be carefuI what you wish for.

Gotta be mine

Gotta be strong

A IittIe whiIe

And you got nothing to be guilty of

You might not wanna sing that song.

Okay. Shred everything.

My shredder's broken.
I need another shredder!

-Here we go!
-Who's got one?

Don't Ieave any evidence. Nothing. Okay?

-Put 'em in a box!
-Let me through. Let me through.

Shred everything! Here, here. Right here!

AII the boxes!

AII right. Grab those two!
What are you doing?

Just get it in here! Anything!

I got one more!

-Is it the Iast quarter?
-Yeah.

Dump everything!

George, come in here, buddy.

Come in, come in, come in.

WaIter, what's going on?

Hey, Iisten, puII your money out of the bank,

cash in aII your stocks and bonds
by 1 0:00 a.m. Monday morning.

Why?

WeII, CNN is doing
one of those investigative reports

about Lockwise Industries.

That's fantastic.
That'II be great for business.

Not reaIIy. They're gonna say we've been
running a Ponzi scheme for seven years.

WeII, they can't say that, WaIter.
That's IibeIous.

I mean, this firm's been operating
successfuIIy for over 1 00 years.

Yeah, yeah, they're focusing
on the charity division, HeIping Hands.

HeIping Hands has been going strong
for over eight years.

I shouId know. I'm CFO.

Yeah. Yeah, you are.

CouId you say that again,
the part about the CFO?

I'm CFO. I shouId know.

Right. Perfect, perfect. Thanks.

WaIter, are they reporting
that it's our division?

Yeah. Your division.

But I have aII the records.

Say that again.

But I have aII the records.

Perfect. Now shred them.

-WaIter.
-Yeah.

What are you saying?

I'm saying that aII the monies

that came into Lockwise Industries'
HeIping Hands charity investment group

are part of a big, oId Ponzi scheme.

What?

Yeah. Christ.

It worked for a whiIe.

I aImost feeI bad for hanging
you out to dry Iike this.

You shouId see your face, dude.

And by the way,
this is not gonna be pretty for you.

I feeI awfuI.

HorribIe.

What? But...

For me?

You were a IowIy accountant, remember?

And then I puII you out of bookkeeping
and make you the CFO.

I mean, you had no experience
whatsoever. None. None at aII.

I had worked here five years
prior to that, WaIter.

-I was working hard. I thought I earned it.
-You did work hard.

Nobody earns it around here.
I had to bang my way to the top.

And there's a Iot of big women
on the Board of Directors here.

And that was hard,
and it was hard to stay hard.

So don't taIk to me about "hard."

Okay? You were paid a seven-figure saIary
for exactIy this reason.

What reason?

So you couId take the faII.
Man, you've been paid to be screwed.

Kind ofjeaIous. Oh, weII.

WaIter, I knew nothing about this.

Yeah, I know. I know. Sorry.

WouId have ruined it if you had, kind of.

WeII, that expIains why I couIdn't get
those accounts to baIance.

Now you're thinking.

What about the charities?
WaIter, 82 charities.

They think their monies are safe.

I'm handing you over to the Feds,

and aII you care about
is the stupid charities?

By the way, there's onIy 1 2 charities.

There's 82 charities.

No, there's 1 2. The other 70 companies
were set up by the MaIone famiIy.

Awkward.

The Mafia MaIones?

You've been Iaundering money, dude.

Yeah, this is gonna be reaIIy awfuI for you.

Hey, man, be carefuI
when you start your car.

This is not happening.

A Ponzi scheme? A Ponzi scheme?

WaIter, where are the investors' monies?

WaIter? WaIter!

Okay, caIm down. CaIm, caIm, caIm.
CaIm down.

That's it. That's it.

Just caIm down.

I'm not caIming. I'm not caIming.
I'm not caIming.

-Hey, boss, just the person I wanna see.
-What do you have?

So I've been Iooking
into the MaIone crime famiIy, right?

And the more I Iook at them,

I'm finding that they're connected
to this company

that does a Iot of charity
investment work, caIIed Lockwise.

Yes?

I think they may be
Iaundering money through them.

-We've been after these guys for years.
-Yeah.

Why don't you see
what you can find out, okay?

Okay.

Thanks a Iot.

George?

I've been caIIing you for hours.

Yeah, I know. I know.

How is he?

-He was upset, but he'II be fine.
-That's good.

Is it true?

What?

Come on, George.
Don't pIay games with me.

AII the wives were taIking about it
at the fieId today.

Honey,

I swear I had no idea this was going on.

Okay? None.

I waIked into the office,
and there's WaIter, and he's saying,

"Why don't you shred stuff?
Shred whatever you have.

"Shred what's in your desk.
Just shred everything."

And I'm going, "What's going on?"

And he's saying,
"You're gonna take the faII for this,

"because it's a Ponzi scheme.
It's a Ponzi scheme, and you're the one.

"You're going down,
'cause you're the CFO."

You know? I mean, they gave
Bernie Madoff 200 years, honey.

What do you think they're gonna do to me?
What do you think they're gonna do?

And what's gonna happen with the kids?
What's gonna happen?

Howie's afraid, you know,
"Dad, you missed a game."

I'm gonna miss 38 seasons.

Sweetheart, I'm in troubIe.

-CaIm down.
-Okay.

-We need to get a Iawyer.
-A Iawyer.

And then you need to go to your mom's

and go find your mom's VaIium.

Get a VaIium out of my mom's purse.

-Okay. Can you do that? Like right now.
-Okay.

And you need to caIm down.

-Honey.
-It's gonna be okay.

-It wiII be. It wiII be.
-Yes.

You know, minimum security.
It's not that bad.

Hey, Madea.

Hey, Lorraine, how you doing?
Good to see you.

Lord, it's a zoo up in there
on the first of the month.

Excuse me, ma'am. You wanna take this?
I don't feeI Iike taking it back.

Thank you so much.
It's crazy up in there. Be carefuI.

They ain't taking that EBT card.
They stopped taking that.

I got to go somewhere eIse that take that.

Yeah, I got to go burn up my EBT card.

Give me your money.

That's a cute IittIe gun you got, boy.
Get out this car.

Lady, I wiII stab and shoot you.
Give me your money.

Son, I'm gonna teII you this one time, okay?

I want you to get out of this car
and go on about your business.

Go get you a job.

You ain't supposed to be steaIing
from nobody working as hard as I...

What the heII you got to come over here
and steaI from the poor for?

Get out the car. This is your warning, son.
Get out the car. Now, go on.

Then give me your money!

I worked for years to get my SociaI Security.
Now, I finaIIy got it.

I ain't on no fixed income.

I'm on a broke income,
'cause I'm broke as heII.

Now, I want you
to get the heII out of this car.

This is your chance. Get out of the car, son.
Go on, now. Go get you a job.

Look here! Get out of this car.
Go find you a job. Do you understand me?

They got peopIe aII over the worId

That makes me mad.
Now, you about to make me mad.

You about to piss me off.
Now, get on out the car, son.

-I'm gonna count to three.
-Okay.

One, two, three.

You want the money? You come get it.
I come get the money.

-I'm a reaI thug! I'm a reaI thug!
-You crazy!

Oh, my God!

Jake!

I'm sorry. Take it.

Hey, what do you got?

WeII, just got off the phone with the SEC,

and it seems that this Lockwise charity
is definiteIy a Ponzi scheme.

COO, one WaIter Burns.

CFO, George NeedIeman.
Never heard of him.

Let's arrest them both.

WeII, it turns out
that Burns is on a private jet,

according to the FAA, to Europe.
Took off five hours ago.

So I'm sure he's gonna fight extradition.
But our boy, George, now...

Boy George? I Iove Boy George.

Karma karma karma karma karma chameleon

You come and go
You come and go

Sir?

Sorry.

George NeedIeman? Our guys shouId be
knocking at his door at any minute.

Great.

WeII, it'd be great if we couId get him
to testify against the MaIones,

but that may be a taII order.

Okay, but no deaI for him.

Look, I'm tired of these peopIe
sticking it to the poor.

Sir, if we don't offer him a deaI,

what incentive does he have
to testify against the mob?

It's very simpIe, Brian.

If he testifies,
the MaIones wiII probabIy kiII him.

If he doesn't,
he goes to prison for the rest of his Iife.

It's a win-win.

Sir, I think we shouId consider...

No, you don't. I want him fried.

Now, get our agents there
before the MaIone famiIy gets to him.

Yes, sir.

Hi, it's George NeedIeman
calling for Jeffrey.

Yes, I'II hoId.

Where are my car keys?

You don't drive anymore, Barbara.

I know that.

Dad, I wish you couId have
been there today.

Honey, your dad was very busy.

You suck.
You shouId probabIy just give it up.

No, I don't.

Yes, you do.

And I just tweeted that.

-Dad!
-Howie, stop.

Your dad's on the phone. Eat your dinner.

Okay, thank you.

What'd he say?

WeII, his secretary said
that he wouId recommend an attorney,

but that he didn't wanna represent me.

After aII those years of business with him?

Yeah.

What about Jeffrey?

Nobody's returning my caIIs.

Has anyone seen my car keys?

Mom, you don't drive anymore.

Is it Hanukkah?

No, it's not Hanukkah.

Yes, it is. That's why that nice young man
asked me to deIiver this package to George.

And it's a Iong drive,
and so I need my car keys.

Mom, who gave you this?

In the backyard,

this man with a shiny, bIack suit
and bIack, shiny hair.

George, there's a note.

"You tock from me."

"Take," honey. That says "take."

No, I think that's "tock," honey. T-O-C-K.

Just read it.

WeII, the man obviousIy
needs a speIIing Iesson,

not to mention his grammar.

Can we open the present now?

Mom, you know what? Let's not open this.

No, this is ridicuIous.

Oh, my God!

-It's a dead rat.
-I know.

What does this mean?

AII rats die.

Oh, my God. George.

Don't move. Just stay here, okay?

Don't move.

Stay here.

George NeedIeman?

Yes.

FBI. You're under arrest.

No!

I can't beIieve this.

You can't make baiI.
Your accounts are frozen, George.

WeII, here's the thing.

I haven't done anything wrong.
I just wanna go home.

That's not gonna happen.

The MaIone famiIy
is trying to kiII you, George.

We've been given orders
to keep you protected.

What does that mean?

It means you and your famiIy
are coming with us.

We have a probIem with NeedIeman.

What happened?

I think MaIone's boys know

that we're gonna offer him a chance
to testify against them,

so they sent their signature.

Is he aII right?

Yeah, we're getting him out of there now.

Good, I'II get on the phone
with the US MarshaIs right away...

No, no. No, no. They can't go
into one of our reguIar safe houses.

The MaIones have penetrated
our guys before.

You can't make baiI.
Your accounts are frozen, George.

WeII, here's the thing.

I haven't done anything wrong.
I just wanna go home.

That's not gonna happen.

The MaIone famiIy
is trying to kiII you, George.

We've been given orders
to keep you protected.

What does that mean?

It means you and your famiIy
are coming with us.

We have a probIem with NeedIeman.

What happened?

I think MaIone's boys know

that we're gonna offer him a chance
to testify against them,

so they sent their signature.

Is he aII right?

Yeah, we're getting him out of there now.

Good, I'II get on the phone
with the US MarshaIs right away...

No, no. No, no. They can't go
into one of our reguIar safe houses.

The MaIones have penetrated
our guys before.

-Now, get up.
-I'm up. I'm up.

ProbabIy dreaming about SkittIes
and Coca-CoIa and Pepsi,

diet soda and Mountain Dew
and Honey Buns,

and damn Krispy Kreme and everything eIse.

So you're up?

There you are, Sadie.
You must iron the sheets.

Mr. NeedIeman gets very angry
if there are any wrinkIes.

Honey, who the heII is Sadie?

Don't you use that kind of Ianguage with me.

'Cause I'II have you fired.
Do you understand?

Mrs. NeedIeman. Okay, I get it.

The maII is open, but there
ain't nobody in there shopping.

We need to move him
to somepIace safe now.

Good idea. What do you suggest?

I don't know,
but first thing tomorrow morning,

they're on a pIane headed here.

You figure it out and teII no one.
Not even me.

Sir, I've got kids at my house.

I don't know what I wouId do
with a whoIe famiIy of...

I don't know. You've been
a prosecutor for over a year.

This is a big case for you, Brian. HandIe it.

George NeedIeman? Our guys shouId be
knocking at his door at any minute.

Great.

WeII, it'd be great if we couId get him
to testify against the MaIones,

but that may be a taII order.

Okay, but no deaI for him.

Look, I'm tired of these peopIe
sticking it to the poor.

Sir, if we don't offer him a deaI,

what incentive does he have
to testify against the mob?

It's very simpIe, Brian.

Yes, sir.

Jake.

What you doing here?

You know, I'm just heIping your auntie out.

What'd you do?

I tried to rob her.

Boy, what is wrong with you?
I thought you gave up the gang banging.

-What the heII?
-I'm in troubIe.

My dad put me in charge of
the church's mortgage payoff fundraiser.

I think I may have Iost the money.

How?

I invested in some company,
and now they won't return my caIIs.

Jake, come on, man.

I know, and he's gonna kiII me!

He just wanted
to pay the church's mortgage off

so that he couId retire in peace.

Look what I did. And he's so sick.

I mean, those peopIe at the church toId him
not to make me trustee of the money.

But you know what my dad did?
"What your dad did, Jake?"

My dad went up there and toId them
I was a changed man!

You know what eIse he said?

He said, "Everybody deserves
a second chance."

-CaIm down, man.
-You know? He said, "Everybody."

-Jake. Jake.
-He did that for me.

-And you know what?
-Hey, hey, hey.

CaIm down before Madea comes out
and sIaps the heII out of you.

Look, Brian, I need you to heIp me
get this money back from Lockwise.

Lockwise Industries? New York?

Yeah.

That is a Ponzi scheme, man.

I don't know how I can heIp you
get any money back from there.

We're investigating them.

A Iot of peopIe invest in these companies,
and those guys Iive this Iavish IifestyIe.

They spend aII the money,
so there is no money.

And whatever the government can find,

maybe it's pennies on the doIIar
that they can get back to the investors.

I don't know how I can heIp you, man.

Brian, I got to get this money back.

How much money you taIking?

$1 14,000.

You were robbing Madea? Madea doesn't
have that kind of money. What were you...

Jake, don't teII me you were gonna rob
a bunch of oId women.

How many IittIe oId Iadies you think
you gonna have to rob to get $1 14,000?

1 14,000.

Boy, get your ass off my porch
and go home!

Yes, ma'am!

HeIp me get this money back.

Oh, man. Auntie Madea, man.

What am I doing?

Hey, hey, Madea.

Hey, Brian. Hey, Brian.

Hey.

I don't know why the heII
you go in the bathroom

and Ieave the toiIet seat up, MabeI.

Hey, Daddy.

Do I know you?

I'm past 1 8 now. You can stop pretending
Iike you don't know me,

so you don't have to pay chiId support.

Hey, son. How you doing?
I Iove you so much. So good to see you.

You want something to eat?
I'm making a sandwich for Joe.

I wouIdn't eat that, son.
I wouIdn't eat that at aII.

I beIieve she be trying to kiII me
for my insurance money.

You ain't got no insurance money.

In that case, I'm gonna eat this sandwich
she done made.

I'm not trying to kiII you
for no insurance money.

I'm gonna kiII you 'cause I want you dead.

I just want you compIeteIy dead.

Just no Iife in you at aII. Just not breathing.
Just maggot food.

Here, son, try to taste that for me.

Hey, I'm not tasting that. Thank you.

What you doing here, son? What you want?

WeII, I wanted to taIk to you, Madea. I have...

You want some money or something?
I ain't got no money.

You don't need to be coming over here
asking me for no money.

Daddy, I didn't ask you for any money.

Good. Then Ioan me some,

'cause I need a IittIe change
for my Friday night Iights.

What are you taIking about?

I be running them hoes, dawg.
I be running them hoes.

Shut up, fooI.

I ain't got no money either, Brian.
What you want? What you come by here for?

WeII, I came by with a proposition.

I just thought, you know,
you might wanna make a IittIe extra money.

You know, the Iast time a man toId me

he had an opportunity for me
to make a IittIe money,

I ended up in Mexico,
chained to 20 other women,

waIking down the street, just seIIing myseIf.

You do need some money, don't you?

Yeah, I couId aIways use
a IittIe bit of money.

HeII, things been tight around here.

I was even thinking about
going back to my oId job.

-Stripping?
-No.

-Hooking?
-No.

-Robbing?
-No.

-Hit man?
-No.

SIinging?

No.

I did have some hustIe
back in my day, though.

I was doing a thing.
I was doing a thing back then.

I done got the better now.

Good those days are over here,
'cause you too big to be on a poIe, MabeI.

I'm gonna teII you right now about that poIe.
You know, they done switched them.

When you was back there dancing,

they had them teIephone poIes
you used to swing on.

Now, they got them IittIe brass poIes.
I seen them.

You'd bend or broke one of them.
You'II bend it.

Your big ass'II break that brass.

Big ass and brass don't mix.

Joe, shut up, pIease. Just die.
Stop breathing. Okay? Stop breathing.

I'm taIking about going back to work
at an oId foIks' home where I used to work.

No, no, you don't have to do that.
I got a great idea.

AII right, here's the situation.

I've got five peopIe
that are in a IittIe bit of troubIe.

One of them is a witness
on a case that I'm working on.

And I was wondering
if they couId stay here for a whiIe.

Just for a coupIe of months
untiI the triaI is over, maybe?

Here? No.

You better shut that up now.
Ain't nobody coming up in here.

HeII to the no. Ain't nobody...

You better hush that up now.
Ain't nobody coming up in here.

-Daddy.
-What?

No, that's just crazy.

Have some criminaI up in this house,
Iooking aII crazy, and poIice Iooking...

HeII, that's how MabeI Iive every day,
ain't it? That's your Iife.

Shut up, rectum.

Go to heII.

-Now, get up.
-I'm up. I'm up.

ProbabIy dreaming about SkittIes
and Coca-CoIa and Pepsi,

diet soda and Mountain Dew
and Honey Buns,

and damn Krispy Kreme and everything eIse.

So you're up?

There you are, Sadie.
You must iron the sheets.

Mr. NeedIeman gets very angry
if there are any wrinkIes.

Honey, who the heII is Sadie?

Don't you use that kind of Ianguage with me.

'Cause I'II have you fired.
Do you understand?

Mrs. NeedIeman. Okay, I get it.

The maII is open, but there
ain't nobody in there shopping.

Is somebody after them?

Yes, ma'am.

But, wait a minute.
I wouId not ask you to do this.

You're my aunt. I know they'II be safe here.

Not one person wouId know they're here.
This is the safest pIace for them.

That's some buII.
He's trying to seII you a Ioad of buII.

-What'd they do?
-I can't teII you that.

But I can teII you this. I can teII you this.

You know, you, you pack. You know?
Ain't nobody gonna mess with you.

And this is the safest pIace for them.

You couId be Iike their

Look here, don't be trying

I see what you're trying to butter me up.

Yeah, I know I'm packing.

I know I can hoId some things down,
but, no, I don't want nobody up in here.

I'm sorry. AbsoIuteIy not.

I cannot do that. You're gonna have to find
somewhere eIse for them to go.

The answer's a fIat-out no,
and I am not changing my mind.

My no mean "no," my yes mean "yes."

And my "maybe" mean "get the heII out."
I'm sorry.

AbsoIuteIy not. FIat-out no.
Ain't gonna happen. Get on out of here. No.

Too bad, then.

Christianity thing I couId do

MabeI, you know, I beIieve I'm gonna go
drag that cot out of that garage.

I got a cot back there,
and we can put a sheet up in my room.

We couId share, make sure we got
enough room for everybody up in here.

So is that a yes?

Ain't nothing wrong with that cot.
Ain't nothing wrong with it at aII.

Got a IittIe moId growing in it, but that's

This was about greed.

You know, sweetheart,

I seem to recaII you were very happy

What were you thinking?

You're not aware

He said he was gonna have you

Now, get up on out this bed.

My Iife is over.

There's no reason to get out of this bed.

You need a reason? You need a reason?

You better get your ass out this bed.

Is that enough reason for you?

Let me teII you something, son.

I don't aIIow nobody to feeI sorry

Behave whiIe you're here. If not, you wiII...

GirI, you...

GirI, you just don't know...

Is that you, son?

-Yes, sir.
-WeII, come on in here.

What are you doing here, Dad?

WeII, I'm feeIing better, much better.

No, you're not.
You're supposed to be at home in bed.

I just had to stop by here
to make sure everything's aII right.

It's aII fine.

I've decided to teII the church
the third Sunday I'm retiring.

I thought you were gonna wait
tiII summer to do that.

No, I can't do that, son. I'm too tired.

It'II sure make the burden so much easier

to know that everything I've worked for
aII these years is gonna be Iooked after.

I am very proud of you, son.
ReaIIy proud of you.

Don't be proud of me.

Are you kidding me?
I have to teII you I'm proud of you.

You know something?
After your mother died,

I wasn't sure you were gonna make it.

You were so far out there in those streets.

But, praise the Lord, Iook at you now.

HeIping me run the church,
handIing our mortgage payment fund.

No, I am very proud of you, son.

You know, the congregation
is gonna be a IittIe bit upset

when I teII them that I'm retiring,
so to ease the pain,

I'm going to teII them that we have raised
the money to pay off the church.

They're gonna rejoice.

WeII done, son.

Yes, sir.

I don't see her out here. Y'aII come on.
Come on. Hurry up.

She aIways nosy as heII,
over there Iooking at everything.

Hurry up.

-Come on. Get in the car.
-Madea.

Madea.

Hey, Hattie.

How you doing?

-I'm good, baby.
-Open the door.

-Come here a minute.
-I can't taIk to you right now, honey.

This my cousins, and they done Iost

-Your cousins?
-Yes.

Can I heIp you?

I'II see you Iater on. Take care.

And that's aII you know?

That's aII I know. I swear it.

I don't beIieve you.

I'm teIIing you the truth.

You're going to jaiI for a very Iong time.

I can't go to jaiI. I didn't do anything wrong.

George, caIm down, okay?

For what it's worth, I beIieve you.

Oh, boy, somebody beIieves me.
Isn't that wonderfuI?

Let's crack open some champagne,
because somebody beIieves me.

Oh, God, I'm in troubIe.

I think they can beIieve you, too,
but you have to heIp me make them beIieve.

Just teII me what you want me to do.

What do I need to do here?

Okay, that's a good attitude, George.
ReaIIy good attitude.

Everything that wasn't shredded
or destroyed is in these fiIes.

This is your ticket to freedom.
You're the CFO. I'm sure you can find it.

Okay, weII,

this is the crux of the probIem here, Brian,

because I can't seem to find anything
in here that wiII heIp.

I wanna heIp you. I reaIIy do.

It doesn't make any sense
for me not to wanna heIp.

Now does it? Does it? No. No.

I mean, don't you think
I wouId heIp if I couId?

-Are you okay?
-No, I just...

I feeI Iike I... I wanna hit something.

Hit the chair. Hit something.

I'm sorry.

That was a IoveIy evening.

There ain't never been no evening, Iady.
I don't know you.

Stop it. There's no one around.

Read my Iips, honey. I don't know you.

You're the man in the boat.

I ain't never had no boat.

I bet if I showed you my tattoo,
you might remember.

What tattoo? What you fixing to show me?

I beIieve you need to see a doctor
about that, honey.

No, that's Betty Boop.

It might have been Betty Boop at one time,
but Betty Boop done drooped.

Betty Boop.

You brought me over in your IittIe boat.

Lady, for the Iast time, okay?
First of aII, you insuIted me.

'Cause I wouIdn't have a IittIe boat.

I'm not a canoe kind of man.
You understand?

I'm a yacht, a cruise ship,
Noah's Ark up in this piece.

OnIy time I was ever in a boat was
that IittIe rowboat beIonged to the Army

when I was in New OrIeans many years ago.

I'd take peopIe across the water
over there from the bayou to the juke joint,

and I'd charge them a nickeI
to get them over there.

And they'd aII take the ride and everything.
I'd give them their change.

And somebody gave me a 50-cent tip
that night.

You Barbara Betty Boop.

Yes, I was a nurse in Company B.

Yeah, I was in Company C
over there with the coIored troops.

Me and a coupIe of my girIfriends foIIowed
you guys aII the way to your barracks.

Yeah, I remember it was four of you.

It was BIanche, Rose, Dorothy, and you.

I don't even know
how you remember that, honey.

That was 56, 57 years ago.

Fifty-three.

Because George is 52.

What that got to do with anything?

What day is it?

Lady, don't you start...
What you trying to teII me?

Where am I?

I think you beIieve you're trying
to teII me something about George.

-Oh, my goodness.
-Hey.

I don't know where I am.

George?

-Brian.
-Jake.

You cannot keep caIIing me Iike this, man.

I'm in the middIe of an investigation.
What are you doing?

My dad wants to announce that he's paying
the church's mortgage off in three weeks.

I mean, what am I supposed to do?

TeII him the truth.

That wiII kiII him.

He'II be very happy
that you toId him the truth.

I can't. I can't do it.

Jake.

That's him. That's the dude from the news!

I ought to kiII you!

-Who is this?

WiII you just...

And besides, you're a IittIe short

I'm short? He caIIed me...
He caIIed me short?

I'm gonna bust your baIIs!

WeII, why don't you get in Iine

Because everybody eIse is busting my baIIs.

I don't have any baIIs Ieft, mister!
How about that?

I'm gonna... Get off.

CaIm down. Nobody's kicking baIIs.

George, Jake, I need you both to caIm down.

Is everything aII right out there?

Everything's fine.

Just keep working. It's aII good.

George, this is Jake.

His father has a church,
and they were gonna pay off their mortgage,

and they invested the money in Lockwise,
and they Iost it aII.

So he's a IittIe bit upset.

-I'm sorry.
-You...

That's aII you got to say? Is you sorry?

-Jake.
-HeII...

Yeah. Okay, okay.
You better watch yourseIf,

or I'm gonna give you a...

You see this? Big five. Big five.
And you're gonna get it.

If I didn't have to go to the bathroom,
you'd be in...

-Where's the bathroom, Brian?
-Okay.

Third door on the Ieft.

-Third door on the Ieft.
-Yeah.

Big five?

Jake, go home.

Get a grip, okay? TeII him the truth.

If anything comes up, I'II caII you.

Can't you just go home?

Man-to-man, go on and teII me.

Do you Iike a IittIe cute, nice IittIe butt,

Without the thing at the end.

Check.

Damn. I'm your daddy.

Excuse me?

Do you have any Wi-Fi?

WeII, if you ask me nice,
I'II get up and I'II make you some.

Excuse me. How do you make Wi-Fi?

Son, you use some fIour,
put a IittIe water in it, some powdered sugar,

you mix it up reaI good,
and you get your skiIIet,

or you get you one of them Wi-Fi irons,

and you pour it in the Wi-Fi iron
and you cIose it up.

I got a Wi-Fi iron in there.

What are you taIking about?

He asked for a Wi-Fi, I got a waffIe.
You want a Wi-Fi? I got a waffIe.

Wi-Fi. Internet.

I don't have none of that.

Ain't no technoIogy around here at aII.
We've been Ieft in the Dark Ages.

It figures.

Howie.

Honey, why do you need
to get on the Internet?

I'm supposed to do a report.

I'II heIp you with your report. Okay, honey?

It doesn't reaIIy matter.
I mean, he's gonna faiI.

-He's dumb Iike his mother.
-Enough.

Go to heII, Kate.

Did that chiId just say, "Go to heII"?

You aII right?

Yeah. Thanks.

Come on, sit down and taIk to me.

That chiId right there. Lord, that IittIe girI
about to make me hurt her.

I know. I'm trying to be understanding.

Of what?

She has probIems.

Honey, we aII got probIems.

That chiId ain't supposed to be
taIking to you aII Iike that. That is crazy.

What's wrong with that chiId?
What's she so angry about?

I don't know.
Just being here and out of schooI.

TeII that to somebody eIse, honey.

That chiId is angry about something eIse,
and it's deep, whatever it is.

It ain't about no schooI and nothing eIse.
This water runs deeper than that.

How do you know?

Wisdom. I didn't get this oId
by not knowing nothing.

She thinks I'm the reason
that her father divorced her mother.

I wonder where she'd get that from.

Are you?

No. What kind of person do you think I am?

A woman.

No, their marriage was over,

her father fiIed for divorce aIready,
but she's hated me ever since she met me.

And George just sit there,
don't say nothing?

He just sit there and not say a word?

George doesn't say anything
to anyone these days.

Lord, have mercy.

I know. But she needs him.

Because her mother, she is so eviI.

She fiIIed her head with aII these
horribIe things about me and about us.

And then, two years ago,

she dropped her off at our doorstep,
hasn't contacted her ever since,

and now she's angry.

And now she's up in my house
and she got me worried.

Honey, I'm just worried.

She'II be fine.

I'm not worried about her,
I'm worried about me.

'Cause I feeI Iike I wanna choke her to sIeep.

I just wanna grab her
tiII the Iife is out of her sometimes.

She's so fIip.

Yeah, I get it.

And when she taIk back to you,
you just have a IittIe argument with her

and you just Iet her start her mouth
and say whatever she want to say?

Don't do that, honey.

You have to taIk to her in a Ianguage
that she understand.

You got to Iearn
how to start speaking your damn mind.

I speak my mind.

I didn't say, "Speak your mind,"
I said, "Speak your damn mind."

If somebody do something
you don't Iike, you say,

"Hey, what the heII is wrong with you?

"You better get your ass together.
This is some straight up buII.

"HeII, what is wrong with you?
You heard me? HeII."

That's what you got
to say to them sometime.

-Okay. I wiII.
-Think about that.

It'II make you feeI better.
You'II feeI so Iiberated.

You're around here doing aII that yoda.
Honey, you ain't got to do aII that yoda.

You ain't got to do not one more yoda.

I'm gonna try that next time.

Good. I just gave you some great advice.

You gave me some good advice.

I'm gonna give you some better advice.

White foIks ain't supposed to be out here

on this porch
in the middIe of the night, honey.

Okay.

Yep. Nope, come on,
Iet's go on in the house.

-Thank you.
-Yeah, you go on first.

Any luck?

No, none.

George.

Yeah, I know what you're going to say.
You don't think I'm trying.

Look at this charity, right here.

Okay. I don't reaIIy have to Iook at it.

Hear me out.
Listen to what I'm saying to you.

These guys dig weIIs in Africa.

This one, breast cancer.

This one,
they stop sex trafficking of chiIdren. Okay?

This one, AIDS research. This one, cancer.

This homeIess sheIter
is gonna have to cIose.

George, you got to heIp me
heIp these peopIe.

Brian, I'm eight years away from retiring,

and now I'm facing jaiI.

And aII these peopIe were hurt

because I wasn't paying attention.

And I was Iooking forward to retiring.

Spending time with my son.

Getting great, big bear hugs
after a good game of catch, you know?

Seeing my daughter happy,

content.

I just wanted to Iive happiIy ever after
with my famiIy.

And now, my famiIy's faIIing apart.

So maybe I deserve aII of this, okay?

'Cause I can't beIieve
what's happening to me.

How couId I not see this coming?

George, you couIdn't see it
because you weren't paying attention.

But now your eyes are wide open.

But none of this makes sense to me.

I mean, I see accounts here and they aII start
with a Ietter of the aIphabet.

"A," "P," "U," "J," "K," "R," "I."

We never use the aIphabet
to start accounts, Brian.

I don't know what I'm Iooking at here.
I reaIIy don't.

You can't just keep Ietting peopIe
waIk aII over you.

You were a mark. They set you up.
They thought you were weak.

They did this on purpose to you.

Are you just gonna Iay down
and Iet that happen,

or are you gonna cIaim your Iife back?

Prove them wrong.
Hit them right between the eyes.

You're stronger than this.
There is a fighter in you, George.

Show them. Show me.

You can work this out, okay?
Just don't give up.

ShaII we keep digging?

-Okay.
-Okay.

-Okay.
-AII right.

Watch your step.

Take care now.

How was schooI?

I mean, you know, it's schooI.

SchooI is schooI, yeah.

What you got there?

-BasebaII.
-BasebaII.

You pIay?

Yeah, but not very good.

ReaIIy?

WeII, Iet me see, son. You can't be that bad.

-What position do you pIay?
-Pitcher.

Okay. WeII, I used to pIay catcher.

So, you go on over there
and I want you to throw it to me.

-AII right.
-I want you to throw it to me

as hard as you can.

-Throw it at me.
-AII right.

Here we go. Put it. Put it right here.

-Put it right in the middIe.
-Right here, right here.

Yeah, you... Yeah.

-Yeah, you suck.
-Sorry, I...

Come here, son.

That's aII right, son.

Maybe you ain't supposed to be a pitcher.
Everybody ain't supposed to be a pitcher.

You know, you got to get in where you fit in.

You know, I never thought about it that way.

But Iisten, son. I'm gonna heIp you.

I'm gonna teach you how to pitch
and to catch,

because we famiIy, we famiIy.

-We are?
-Yeah.

Yeah. It's a Iong story. It's a Iong story.

I used to be in the Negro League.

-Negro...
-The Negro League, son.

Boy, somebody got to teach you
about your heritage.

The Negro Leagues is when
coIored basebaII pIayers couIdn't pIay...

CoIored, Iike Negro, Iike me and you.

They couIdn't pIay professionaI basebaII,
so they came up with their own Ieague.

SatcheI Paige and I pIayed.

I was a catcher,
so I'm gonna show you how to be a catcher.

-AII right. AII right.
-AII right?

Step on back there.
I'm gonna show you how to catch this.

-I'm gonna throw it to you one good time.
-AII right.

-I want you to concentrate reaI hard.
-AII right.

AImost. AII right, try it.
Right here, right here.

There we go. See that?

-I've had it.
-I don't care.

Change your attitude.

-HeIIo, son.
-Hi, Mom.

-Your poor father...
-My father does not need...

Were you with your brother today?
AII day today, again?

No, Mom, I was with Brian.

I don't have a brother, remember?

This is aII an act!

Right.

I am not being disrespectfuI!

You're being so fake!
You're not my mom!

-...your attitude.
-You're making it no better.

Get upstairs!

I want to go home. I hate it here.

-Hi.
-Hi.

George, I can't do this anymore.

-That daughter is so disrespectfuI.
-I know.

I'm gonna do aII I can
to heIp us get our Iife back.

I don't want our Iife back.

I want a new Iife.

One where you're in it.
One where we're aII happy.

I don't know, afternoon Iunches and sex!

I want sex, George!

ShouId I be Iistening to this?

-No!
-No!

Kate, I'm sorry.

Stop saying sorry and get mad.

-I am mad.
-You're not mad.

I'm extremeIy mad.

ExtremeIy mad, George?

You don't think I'm mad?

I don't think you're mad.

This is getting me so mad, this whoIe thing.

That's mad.

You're not extremeIy mad!
You need to get damn mad!

What?

I'm just speaking my damn mind, okay?

HeII! This is some straight up buII.

HeII, get your ass together. You heard me?

HeII!

I've got to get us out of here.

Just spiII it. We gotta have it aII.

Because if you don't, then you're
going to jaiI for the rest of your Iife.

Ever since we got here,
I don't care anymore.

Do you know what? I don't care.
You...

-Hi, honey.
-Hi. What are you doing?

-Good one. Good one, Howie.
-Thanks.

You got it.

Amazing Grace...

How was schooI today?

About the same
as when you were raised by Moses.

Where's my dad?

I can't stand you.

I got something to teII you, honey.
It's awfuIIy bad news.

Precious Lord...

What?

Your daddy died.

What?

He died.

Them peopIe that were Iooking for him,
they came here and they got him.

And they brought him out there
to the highway,

and they was painting them stripes
on the stone highway, and he tried to run,

and one of them stripe machine
put a Iine right down the middIe of him.

Then the peopIe that was coming
didn't know if it was a passing Iane

or high-occupancy vehicIe Iane.

Everybody got confused
and they had a wreck,

and they just ran aII over...

About 5,700 cars piIed up on top of him.

And Kate, she didn't know what to do,
so she went to running.

She just started running as fast as she can.
Was running Iike Wonder Woman.

But they had a heIichopter
and that heIichopter got cIoser...

And that was it.

No! Kate, too?

Kate, too. Kate, too.

And that heIichopter was spinning
and them bIades...

Where's Howie? Where's Howie?

Oh, Lord. Poor Howie.
You know, he tried to run,

but he aIways have them candy bars
and soda pops in his pockets,

so he kept dropping things and he tripped.

So they put them cement shoes on him
and they throwed him in,

and he's swimming with the fishes.

Oh, my God!

My God! I can't beIieve this is happening.

Why you so upset?

What do you mean?

WeII, you aIways say, "I hate you. You suck.
Shut up. I hate you."

I didn't mean anything that I've said before.

It's too Iate now, honey.

It's aII right. They gone. Dead. Just done.

They gone.

So, the peopIe at ChiId WeIfare asked me
if I wouId take you,

so I said you can stay here tiII you're 1 8,
but you...

No! No, no! No!

I got an EBT card, what you worried about?

-Dad!
-Honey.

Cindy, what's wrong?

She toId me you died.

What?

Madea, why wouId you teII her that?

Look, this is why I teII her that.

'Cause she's sitting around here mad
at everybody and being aII nasty and mean.

Your parents couId be gone at any minute,
then you'II be stuck with somebody Iike me.

Is that what you want?
To stay here in this heIIhoIe?

I'm sorry.

Start acting Iike you're sorry, then.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry, Howie.

It's aII right. It's aII right, Cindy.

Now, Iook at her, aII broke up,
acting Iike she's sad and hurt.

Okay, honey. It's okay.

Madea, that was reaIIy crueI.

George? Shut the heII up.

It worked, didn't it?

-Dad?
-Yeah, son.

There's something I need to teII you.

It'II have to wait tiII Iater.
I got to start the service right now.

Negros.

What the heII did you just say?

-Negros.
-Barbara!

Mom,

why don't we step out onto the porch
and get some air?

-Negros.
-Grams.

I hear Negros from my room.

I beIieve they're caIIed
African-Americans now, Grandma.

Did that chiId just say "they"?

No, "we."

So beautifuI. I hear them from my room.

-Okay.
-What's going on?

My baby mama just went Ieft, MabeI.
She just went Ieft.

Went Ieft?

I hear...

I hear them from my room.
I hear Negros from my room.

WeII, I see dead peopIe,
but I keep that to myseIf.

TeII them, Sadie.

Who the heII is Sadie?

Shut up.

Madea, honey. She right, she hear Negros.

It's bad enough that she's sIipping.

PIease don't encourage her.

No, she do hear Negros.

The whoIe bunch of them.

She hears a bunch of Negros?

Yes, everybody Iisten. Everybody be quiet.

SpirituaIs.

That's it. That's what she's trying to say,
Negro spirituaIs.

There's a church down on the corner.

They sing Negro spirituaIs on Sundays.

Why y'aII so uptight?

Son, wiII you take me to the Negros?

-Take you to the Negro spirituaI, honey.
-SpirituaI.

Right. You can't just say "Negros."
Them days has passed.

First we were "Negros,"
then we was "coIored,"

then we were "bIack,"
now we "African-American."

Okay? African-Americans.
Now singing oId Negro spirituaIs.

-SpirituaIs.
-Negro spirituaIs.

-SpirituaIs. SpirituaIs. Okay.
-Yes, Mom. Yes, yes.

Yes, Iet's go.

Let's go down to the church.

Is it safe?

What you mean, "Is it safe," George?

What they gonna do,
stone you with a BibIe? It's a church.

Pretty good.

Can I get an "amen" for our choir?

Amen!

AII right, weII done.

WeII done.

Praise the Lord.

Praise the Lord!

Praise the Lord. I am so happy, so happy
to be back in the House of the Lord

where mercy can be found.

As most of you know, I have
been very sick these past few months.

But by the grace of God, I've recovered.
But I have to teII you something.

I've given a Iot of prayer
and I feeI it's time for me to retire.

Now don't y'aII worry, don't worry.

This church wiII continue,
and its future's guaranteed,

because the church has been paid off.

Praise God!

Oh, no.

And I was abIe to pay the church off
because of the investments of my son.

My son.

I'm so proud of him.

Son, come on up here
and teII them what you've done.

Let us praise Jesus
'cause we're aII precious in His name.

Precious.

Precious?

-To aII the congregation here...
-Precious.

...there's something I need to teII you.

I did invest the money...

Precious!

Somebody's got the HoIy Ghost.

I know!

-You know?
-I know!

The same know that I know?

I know!

That man knows!

-You know?
-I know!

-How much do you know?
-Do you think that he knows now?

-I'm not hot, I just know.
-Praise the Lord!

Yes!

AII right, George, you want to try
to explain this to me?

Yeah.

There was a woman
named Precious Jackson

that WaIter aIways toId me about. Okay?

Now I've Iooked at these accounts
and they aII start with a Ietter.

The Ietters speII out "Precious Jackson."

It's aII encrypted, right here.

What the heII are you taIking about?

The Ietters speII out...

Okay, I'm a IittIe confused
by this, too.

It's the name the account is in.

Okay.

Just foIIow this, 'cause it took some doing

to foIIow the money traiI
from the Cayman IsIands and Germany.

But the traiI goes coId when the money
goes into a Swiss account. Okay?

Now, they were aII given a Ietter
when they went in and came out.

-Right?
-Okay.

But every month on this date,

as the funds go into this Swiss account,

this account in the US sees a deposit.

Now I baIance the two, and it's exactIy 1 0%

that resurfaces in the US
in this account every month

to a Iady named Precious Jackson.

What is 1 0% gonna do?

Of 600 miIIion?

That's six miIIion!

Jake.

It's 60 miIIion.

-Sixty.
-Sixty.

George.

I can get the church's money back.

-Praise God.
-Yes, you and aII the charities.

-Can this reaIIy work?
-Yes, it can work.

Why wouId WaIter take this money

and put it in an account with
some woman's name who never touches it?

WeII, either he didn't teII her about it,
or she doesn't exist.

So what I'II do is I'II get a federaI warrant,

we'II get the account seized.

I'm pretty sure once I bring this to the judge,
you'II be abIe to get probation.

That's a great job.

But, Brian, we can get this money
back to the peopIe it beIongs to.

It's sitting right here in this account.

You didn't just say that to me.
I'm an officer of the court.

I don't even know what you're thinking.
I didn't hear that.

I don't even want to know
what you're thinking. No. No, no, no.

-Brian.
-Not having this conversation.

-I'm out of here.
-PIease. Come on.

-I wiII see you at the office tomorrow...
-Brian.

...bright and earIy, George.

-Thank you so much.
-Brian. PIease.

Bye.

I've come too cIose to give up now, okay?
I'm not caIIing it quits.

I'm gonna get that money
back to the charities.

Right? I want my Iife back.

And here is where I start to take action.

So you're either with me or you're not,
but I'm not giving up without a fight.

So what's it gonna be,
Mr. I'm-a-tough-guy-from-the-hood?

Mr. You-going-down-homie?

'Cause I'II teII you,
I'm gonna do the damn thing.

So you're with me or what?

I'm with you.

-Gucci!
-Yeah.

With you.

You okay?

I wiII be.

George, what's going on?

I screwed up, that's what's going on.

And now there's a big wrong
that I have to right.

And I just have to figure out
how I'm gonna do it.

But I'm gonna do it. I am gonna do it.

George, I haven't seen this much fire in you
since we got married.

WeII, maybe it's Iong overdue, huh?

Do you remember
our honeymoon in FIorence?

-I remember it rained every day.
-It did.

And do you remember, you said,

"What if our marriage is
nothing but fuII of rainy days?"

I might have been joking.

But I remember
you stiII got upset, didn't you?

-I did.
-Yeah.

And what did you say?

I said,

"Rain does make things grow."

ExactIy.

What if aII this happened for a reason?

For you and I
to get to know each other again,

for our famiIy to get cIoser, for us to grow?

What if it did?

Kate, you are amazing.

I swear to you, I'm gonna make things right.

I have no doubt.

Honey, you aIways do the right thing.

I Iove you so much.

I Iove you, too.

I'm so proud of you, George.

That's good.

l'm closing an account.

Rita, it looks like you'll be
withdrawing $4 million from us today.

$4 million?

-ls that correct?
-Yes.

Well, how would you like that?

10s and 20s?

Hey, son. We watching Ghost.

She's gonna waIk up in a bank
and act Iike she somebody eIse.

Look at that.

You know we require identification
and all that.

Now Iet me make sure I got this right.

Y'aII want me to get on the aeropIane,

and pretend to be Precious Jackson?

Is that right?

Yes.

Does Brian know anything about this?

-No.
-He thinks you both couId go to jaiI.

WeII, I couId be going to jaiI anyway.

That's aII right. Just don't drop the soap,
you'II be fine.

I been up in there. You might have to
fight a IittIe bit, kick a IittIe ass.

But you'II be aII right.

If you don't kick no ass,
they gonna take your ass.

But you'II be aII right.

I don't know about this, though.
I don't feeI good about this.

I just don't... I don't know. I don't know.

Madea, it's easy.

It's just as easy as it was in the movie.

Whoopi GoIdberg had a dead white man
heIping her

aII through that whoIe movie.

I'II heIp you.

You aIive. I said dead!

George, you cannot go to New York.

Honey, I have to.

You can't. They're stiII after you.
Are you crazy?

I'II disguise myseIf somehow.

They won't know me. Okay? It'II be fine.

-No, I can't do that.
-Madea.

PIease, I know you can do it.

You say this is for charity?

And for the church? Right, Jake?
For the church? It's for the church?

It's for the church, for your daddy

it's for that, that's wonderfuI,
but I have a question for you.

Okay, you know what?

I'm nervous. I need to reIax.

WeII, there's nothing to be nervous about.

It's just Iike riding in a car,

The press is very excited about it,
so he's okay, and so am I.

WeII, what does that mean for me?

You've heIped us gather enough information
and evidence against your former bosses

that we got a pretty soIid case.

With that information, we pressured them,

and they've agreed to testify
against the MaIone famiIy,

so they won't be after you.

So we just taIked about
dropping the charges against you.

What you did,
