Curtis is bothered by the constant stream of visitors coming through his house, including his own college-age son, Calvin, and his nephew, CJ, and his nephew's entire family. When CJ's son, Malik, complains about going to school, the news emerges that he is afraid to go because of a bully constantly stealing his lunch money. Curtis ends up having to go to the conference with the school principal and upon arriving, learns the bully is actually a girl, Nikki. But when Curtis meets Nikki's foster mother, Madea, he cowers to her own bullying personality. The principal suggests Malik and the bully study together as a way of forming a bond, but neither Curtis nor Madea are happy about the situation.
