Vianne Griffin (Keisha Grandy), who is settling a divorce with her ex-husband Anthony Griffin (Cart Pertile) – a successful stock broker, has moved in with her grandmother, Mable "Madea" Simmons (Tyler Perry). Madea did not like Anthony at all. Madea just got home from the hospital because she is diabetic. Another person Madea is helping out is Bobby Mitchell (Tyga Graham), a total stranger who just got out of doing 12 years in prison for possession of drug paraphernalia – even though, according to him, it was his two older brothers and since he was the youngest they told him to say it was his and he did. Bobby is Madea's handyman and usually cuts her grass and both Madea and Vianne really think he is attractive. Vianne does not want to admit it.
