Madea Goes to Jail Page #10

---

officially processed.

What does that mean?

That means she will be

fingerprinted...

...and at some point she will stand

against the wall of shame...

...and have her mugshot taken.

What a fall from grace

for Linda Davis.

Hey, turn the TV on.

We sitting looking at that.

What's wrong with you?

Bernice Davis...

...Ida Mae Jones...

...Takeda Matthews...

...Andrea Thomas...

...Candace Collins...

...Mabel Simmons...

...and Elizabeth Bryant.

There's been an investigation

in the DA's office...

...that has led

to the overturning of your convictions.

Get your things. You're going home.

What?

Group hug.

Do you feel justice was served?

Yeah, justice is served.

You know, justice with-

Brian knows about the justice.

I just think that we all are really happy

that justice has been overturned.

And you know what? I'm gonna go

buy her a white dress with a white hat.

White ruffle pants, white ruffle socks

and shoes. Going to Church this time.

The person to ask is Madea.

Here she comes now.

Soldier boy.

I've nothing to say.

I've nothing to say.

It's just been really tough

being up in that prison.

They did all this stuff to try to get me

down but do- You can't keep me down.

Praise the Lord. God bless you.

Hallelujah.

They tell me you're the best.

Well, look, I don't usually do this.

I mean, you need to know that.

I don't usually see people individually.

I saw the videotape of you

getting arrested and I thought...

...I've got to see this woman.

- You can't think what you did was okay.

- You don't know what happened.

What do you mean? I saw it on tape.

I saw you forklift the lady's car...

- ... out of a parking space.

- You're talking about that time.

I ain't know what you talking about.

Oh, they had that on video too?

Know what, that woman just-

I've been riding by that parking lot...

...my air conditioner don't work

in my Cadillac, that '78 Cadillac.

And I was driving around

and could not get a parking spot.

There she was, zoomed in there,

knew I was waiting for that spot.

- What else was I supposed to do?

- Well, you go on to another space.

Do you have to be in control

all the time?

No, I don't have to be in control.

That was my parking spot.

I wasn't going to another space.

That was the closest to the door.

That's the one I want.

Other people want stuff too.

It's not just about you.

It's not just about you all the time.

In my world, it's about me.

This is Madea's world.

It's about me, Dr. Phil.

Do you get angry

when you feel out of control?

I'm never angry. I keep telling people

I am not angry, okay?

Somebody do something to me,

I do something.

You don't bother me,

I don't bother you.

You weren't angry when you

flipped over this car?

I was calm and cool as a cucumber.

- I was sitting there smoking a cigarette.

- Are you crazy?

A little bit.

- I got a question for you.

- I got a question too.

- What about your childhood?

- What about your childhood?

Talking about my childhood

is not gonna help your anger.

I keep saying I'm not angry.

- But you keep insisting I am.

- Are you happy to be talking to me?

I would much rather be at the casino

playing blackjack or something.

But they told me I have to see you.

- So I'm here.

- Why?

Because the court made me.

You forklift a woman's car

out of the parking lot.

Does that seem reasonable to you?

She took the parking spot.

- It isn't your parking spot.

- Yes, it was.

Did it have your name on it?

Did it have your name on it?

It had handicap.

That matches what I had in my car.

She took it with her little convertible

so I lifted it, flipped it.

Well, yeah, I believe

the handicapped part. I got that.

What are you trying to say?

Something's wrong with me?

Did you see me walk in here? I'm fine.

What are you doing

in the handicapped space?

Because it was closer to the door.

What?

It's closer to the door.

They always leave the handicap

close to the door.

That's why I take it.

Do you feel

like you always have to get even?

- Hell, yeah.

- Why do you always have to get even?

Why can't you just let it roll off

like water off a duck's back?

Because I ain't no damn duck.

You don't have to attack people.

Somebody do something to you,

you do something to you.

The Bible said in second Deutoronomo,

the book of Jericho that:

"The eye for a tooth,

a tooth for the people.

If everybody got the eye,

punch them in it. "

- What?

- I can tell you don't read the Bible.

Bible say, "Turn the other cheek. "

Somebody hit that cheek,

turn the other. You have two cheeks.

How many you gonna let them hit

before you whup their ass?

I don't think

you have to whup their ass.

It ain't about ass-whupping.

You don't open up a can of whupass

on everybody that you meet.

- You go with the flow.

- What do you mean?

Letting people walk over you

like a doormat?

No. I've been in this life too long to

let some people just walk all over me.

- I'm not gonna do that.

- But it's easy for you to get bothered.

It doesn't take a whole lot

for you to get bothered.

"No, it doesn't. "

"Yes, it does. "

"I beg to differ. "

- Do you sleep well at night?

- Do you sleep well at night?

Okay, let's try not to answer a question

with a question, okay?

If you stop asking questions

I'll stop answering with a question.

- Can you stop?

- Can you stop?

Okay, all right. Look, look.

Are you getting angry, doctor?

Yeah, I'm getting angry.

- Answer the question.

- Answer what question?

This isn't working. This isn't helping.

I told the judge

I didn't need to come here.

- But you're here.

- Yes, I am here.

- You're not making any sense.

- You're not making any sense.

Do you talk to people

like this all the time?

What? What are they gonna do?

I'm 6-foot-5,

what the hell are they gonna do?

Yes, I say what's on my mind.

Ain't nobody gonna run over me.

I'll say what's on my mind.

Well, what's on your mind?

What's on your mind?

Okay, wh-? Is there-?

What are you, a parrot?

Is there an echo in here?

There's not a parrot, not an echo.

None of those things are in here.

I'm talking. They told me to see you.

You're supposed to help me.

I keep telling I'm not angry.

- You're not angry?

- No, I'm not angry.

I don't know how many times I have

to tell you I'm not angry, Dr. Phil.

- How can you tell if you're angry?

- I could tell if I'm angry, if I'm angry.

- If I was angry I would know I'm angry.

- You don't think you're angry now?

- No.

- You're yelling, you're screaming.

- You're yelling.

- You're driving me crazy.

But you're the doctor.

You're supposed to handle this hell.

You're a psychologist.

You've studied with the best.

You been all over the world

learning about people.

- And you let a little woman upset you.

- They never told me about you.

I missed that class,

I can tell you for sure.

I missed the class

where they went over Madea.

- Right. Madea 101, baby. You learn it.

- Yeah.

All right, look. We're getting nowhere.
