Madea Goes to Jail Page #5
I couldn't find a job...
...and I ain't have no money,
I was so hungry.
And then I...
...I met this man.
And he said he loved me.
And he said he was
gonna take care of me.
And he said that if I loved him
that I would...
...sleep with him and his friend.
And it turned into
his other friends without him.
And then strangers.
It took me four years...
...four years...
...to get away from him.
CeCe, I'm sorry.
CeCe?
Yeah.
That little girl,
she died a long time ago.
Boy, are those tears in your eyes?
You better man up. Don't you sit
over there feeling sorry for me.
At least I get paid for what I do now.
You do not get paid for what you do.
I told y'all I ain't got no
anger-manager problem.
Y'all still insisted on me going.
You have a anger-management
problem.
Fine, take me down there then.
That's why I'm gonna get you
one of these.
- One of what?
- This, right here, one of these.
- What is that?
- It's a reminder on how to treat people.
WWJD.
You know what that means?
What that stand for?
What's wrong with Jermaine Dupri?
No. It means "What would Jesus do?"
Everybody know that.
I don't know. Hell.
Did you see that?
- Did you see him?
- Yes, I saw it. What you gonna do?
- Well- What- I'm gonna WWJD.
- Cora, Jesus did not have no car.
- Better go get that fool.
- He's gonna get his.
- No, I can't.
- Cora.
He's gonna get his.
Look. He got stopped by the light.
Well, pull up on him, then.
- Okay.
- I'm gonna do a drive-by.
Madea- No, you're not.
Oh, man, I got this. I got this.
Excuse me, sir.
- Excuse me.
- Hey, fool.
- What?
- You cut in front of me. Did you see?
Go to hell.
Wh- Did- What?
- Did you hear that?
- Did you show him your bracelet?
- Did you show him the WWJD?
- Don't be funny, Madea.
Cora, I didn't raise no punk.
- You better go get that fool.
- I'm no punk, Madea.
- Cora, you ain't gonna be no punk.
- I'm not no punk. I'm not-
I stopped that fool in his face,
you goddamn fool!
Mama.
Girl, I ain't your mama.
Good morning.
What are you, a size 5-, 6?
Why?
Probably a 3.
You don't look like you eat much.
Joshua?
What the hell is this?
We both set up a job interview for you.
I think I can cover that eye up.
We have companies working with our
ministries to get women off the street.
That's if you wanna be.
Who said I wanted to be, huh?
- Candy, that's what you wanted.
- Well, I told you.
Sometimes women like her
say one thing one day.
And then they wake up
and say another thing.
What do you mean girls-?
You don't know me.
Chicks. Junkies like you with
a problem say one thing one day...
...and another the other
because you're on that stuff.
- Go to hell.
- You go first.
I ain't no damn addict.
Candy.
Candy, if the public defender can
show the judge that you got a job...
...it's gonna look really good.
And they may even
suspend your sentence.
I need to know.
I need you to try this, please.
Fine.
Fine.
Fine.
Thank you.
Okay, we'll see you there.
I gotta go to work. After you're done,
can you come to the courthouse?
I wanna talk to your lawyer. I'm gonna
see if I can help him through this.
Okay?
Yeah. Okay. Sure.
You wanna try to get this job or not?
I told them I didn't need
to come here and see you, okay?
Well, you know,
I don't usually see people individually.
But when I saw this tape
of you getting arrested...
...I thought I have got
to talk to this woman.
What is wrong with you?
Why are you so angry?
First of all, ain't nothing wrong
with me. Secondly, I'm not angry.
Okay? I'm not angry.
- You seem angry now.
- No, I'm not angry.
This is how I am.
I don't have no hostility at all.
Well, do you have to be in control
all the time of everything?
I don't have to be.
I ain't got no problem with that.
Well, then why
do you get so angry?
I keep trying to tell you
and that judge that I do not get angry.
Somebody do something to me...
...I do something to them.
That's common sense.
- So you believe in getting even?
- Hell to the yeah.
Why do you feel
you gotta get somebody all the time?
"Get him, get him. "
You don't think that's angry?
If they:
"Got me,"I gotta get them, get them.
- That's what it is.
- Then, what you call getting got...
...is different than what
other people call getting got.
It doesn't take much to get you,
does it?
When you getting got, somebody
got you, then you go get them.
Everybody's gonna get got.
But if you're getting somebody
got you...
...when they didn't get you...
...you're getting the gotters,
they didn't do anything.
But if the gotters get me,
I'm gonna get my Glock.
Yeah, well- But you don't get
the Glock when you hadn't been got.
What I'm trying to explain,
I don't care who got me.
- I'll get them first. Get me, I'll get you.
- Why is it so important?
Okay. I'm tired of you
asking me these questions.
I didn't sign up for this.
It's the judge
that told me to come here.
Everybody wants to get even.
Everybody wanna get even.
All right, all right.
Look, let's just talk
about your childhood, okay?
- Let's talk about your childhood.
- Talk about yours.
Let's talk about your childhood.
Let's talk about your childhood.
Talking about my childhood
isn't gonna help us.
- What was your childhood like?
- What was yours like?
Why-? Let's talk about your anger.
- That's why you're here, right?
- I'm not angry. I don't know why.
- Let's just try another approach, okay?
- Let's try another approach.
Do you sleep well at night?
Do you sleep well at night?
Let's try not to answer a question
with a question.
Could we do that?
Could we at least do that?
If we stop asking me
all these questions...
...I won't have to answer
with a question.
- Can you stop? Can you just stop?
- Can you just stop? Can you just stop?
- Are you getting angry, doctor?
- Okay. This isn't getting anywhere.
- This is not getting anywhere.
- I think I am gonna talk to the judge.
This is getting nowhere. We're done.
- Thank you.
- Okay. That's good.
- Wonderful to see you. Yes. Right.
- Yeah, well- Yeah, great.
- Come on. Let's get the hell out of here.
- Wait a minute.
- Well?
- This lady is out of control.
She is- I can't help her.
Wait a minute now, wait a minute now.
Now, you're the best.
- Go see somebody else. I'm done.
- Come on, Cora, here.
Oh, what am I gonna-?
Nobody gonna be able to help.
We ain't gonna...
Linda.
- Hey.
- Hey.
I've been trying to call you.
You know what, I got really busy
with some stuff.
You're avoiding me, right?
- No.
- I can explain.
Look, this isn't making
any sense to me, okay?
This girl,
she popped out of nowhere.
Look, what if I had a pimp
who was a friend of mine.
And he's in town for a month or so.
so he's on my couch in your bathrobe.
How do you feel about that? Okay?
I mean seriously,
what would you have me think?
- I know it sounds bad...
