When Madea catches 16-year-old Jennifer and her two younger brothers looting her home, she decides to take matters into her own hands and delivers the young delinquents to the only relative they have: their aunt April. A heavy-drinking nightclub singer who lives off her married boyfriend Randy, April wants nothing to do with the kids, but her attitude starts to change when Sandino, a handsome Colombian immigrant looking for work, moves into her basement room. Making amends for his own troubled past, Sandino challenges April to open her heart, and she realizes that she must make the biggest choice of her life: between her old ways with Randy and the new possibilities of family, faith ... and even true love.
