- Likes Older Women: Davi does.
- Minority Police Officer: Ellie. This causes a small conflict between her and Uncle Joe.
- The Reveal: During Tim's graduation celebration, Davi reveals that he and Laura have been seeing each other.
- Ruder and Cruder: Being the first R-rated (or TV-MA) entry in the series, this installment has more profanity and vulgarity than any of the past films. Madea even drops the F-bomb in the opening scene.
- Separated by a Common Language: Madea's family have issues understanding Davi's aunts' Irish accents and dialect.
- Shout-Out: Madea can be channeling Beyoncé and her 2019 concert film, Homecoming.
