Madea's Big Happy Family Page #3

Synopsis: Madea jumps into action when her niece, Shirley, receives distressing news about her health. All Shirley wants is to gather her three adult children around her and share the news as a family. But Tammy, Kimberly and Byron are too distracted by their own problems: Tammy can't manage her unruly children or her broken marriage; Kimberly is gripped with anger and takes it out on her husband; and Byron, after spending two years in jail, is under pressure to deal drugs again. It's up to Madea, with the help of the equally rambunctious Aunt Bam, to gather the clan together and make things right the only way she knows how: with a lot of tough love, laughter ... and the revelation of a long-buried family secret.

to make it seem like 40 is down there,

and I'm way back... I'm close to 40.

Forty's over there and I'm right there.

You make it seem like I'm old or something.

The point I'm trying to make is that

you should be having

regular colon and prostrate exams.

It could save your life.

Okay. You go ahead and check my collasum

and my prostitute. All right?

It's prostate, Mr. Brown.

Cora, I know. It's the same thing.

Just go ahead and just check me.

Hold on. I had some of Cora's chips I found

and I might have some on my prostitate.

Go ahead and check.

Not that end, Mr. Brown.

The other end.

You talking about my beginning

and the end?

- Yes!

- The devil is a liar!

You can't be back there like that.

- Wait, Doctor. Wait!

- Get him, Doc.

I'm new! Please!

Hey, Madea.

What the doctor say about Brown?

He's better. He just has to watch

his diabetes, just like you.

Oh, yeah, he got to watch that, honey,

he got to watch that for real.

He's gotta stop eating all that foolishness

and start exercising.

You right.

You right.

I think I'm gonna have the number four.

Welcome to Snax. May I take your order?

Are you at one of those drive-throughs?

Yes, I'm at a drive-through. Hell, I'm

hungry. I'm trying to get some breakfast.

Didn't I just tell you,

you have to start eating healthier?

Cora, hell, I don't wanna hear that.

I know you're probably standing

right next to a vending machine right now.

What you got, a honey bun?

Byron!

Cora, listen, I got to go now.

Girl, I'm driving on the phone. You know

Oprah don't want me driving on the phone.

Goodbye.

I'm upset, or whatever the case may be.

I would like to have a ham,

egg and cheese biscuit and orange juice.

Call Day back...

No, you call him on your phone,

I'm gonna keep callin' Byron, but

I'm gonna keep hanging up, answering,

"Nah, nah, nah." Hold on.

- Heller?

- Lady, I hear you. Hold on!

- You better answer that phone or...

- Okay.

All right. The service ain't

what it used to be either, I tell you.

It's Sabrina. Byron...

You need to go on

Maury for him, girl.

For real, dawg.

It's hot as hell in this Cadillac

and I don't have no air conditioner.

What do you wanna eat?

I want a ham and egg

and a cheese biscuit, okay? Heller!

We're out of ham.

You out of ham?

Okay. All right. Fine, fine.

Then give me an egg and cheese biscuit.

We're out of egg.

You're out of egg? You're just...

Fine! Then just give me a damn biscuit.

It's 10:
31, ma'am,

and we just stopped serving breakfast.

Hold the hell on. I've been sitting here

for 15 minutes waiting on your... No, honey.

No, no, no. I don't care. I want breakfast.

You want something else

like lunch or something?
