Legal Question in Consumer Law in Alabama

movie rental

I rented a movie from a local independant rental store. I thought i had returned the movie. The business kept calling me until about 21/2 I returned their phone call. The owner indicated that I had a movie that had not been returned. I explained to her that I thought I had returned it. I told her that I would look again and asked about the rental fees. The owner said that it was a seldom rented movie and that they were going to put it on close out. She indicated that if I could not find it she would just charge me for what the movie cost them which was 15.00 dollars. I forgot about it until I received another phone call from her that she was taking a warrant out for my arrest. I promptly went to the location and offered to pay her what we had agreed to over the phone, I even offered to pay for the case. She indicated at that time that I owed her 125.00 in late fees. I told her that that was not what we had agreed to over the phone. She became extremely agitated and asked me to leave. I told her that I was only trying to pay her for the movie, at the amount she had agreed to. She called the police because she said I would not leave. What is my obligation to her.
