For years, mild-mannered Wall Street banker George Needleman has meandered through life oblivious to his family's dysfunction and his company's malfeasance, but he's forced to wake up when he learns that he's been framed in a mob-backed Ponzi scheme. Placed under federal protection, George and his family are shipped down South to Madea's house, where the no-nonsense matriarch whips them all into shape using her special brand of tough love.

Plot

George heads to the Wall Street office on a Saturday only to find out that his division is actually a Ponzi scheme just revealed by CNN. He was promoted to CFO to take the fall one day. To make matters worse, a mob family has used his division to launder money. SEC/FBI is on to the company and George is the only one left. The usual safe houses aren't safe enough so the agent in charge flies George and his family to Georgia to stay with his weird aunt Madea until the trial two months later.
