The Purge: Anarchy

Investigation of High-Tech Purging Operations

Cali This is some high-tech shit. Yo, somebody spent a lot of money trying to do some heavy-duty Purging. Look at this. They're accessing the city's traffic cams. Looking for targets, I guess.

Liz Traffic cams are controlled by the government. How did they get into these? I mean, who are these people?

Cali Maybe you just answered your own question.

Sergeant Look at this. Seventh Street. Is that your building?

Eva Sanchez Yeah, but why is it all red?

Sergeant You're being targeted for something, along with all these other buildings. Here, here. All over the city.

Eva Sanchez All around the projects. Maybe you were right, Cali.

Cali Look, I'm telling you, this is the New Founding Fathers. The government...

Shane The truck is fucked.

Sergeant No good?

Shane No, the engine's all blown out or something.

Cali Hey, look at this. That's Carmelo's mark, Mom. I told Papa he was the real deal. His group took these fuckers out.

The Purge: Anarchy

Conflicted Loyalties on Purge Night

Eva Sanchez I don't know how to thank you.

[''At a friend's apartment'']

Sergeant Okay, if you can just tell her I need the car right now, that would be really great.

Eva Sanchez I know what you're doing tonight. You're going out there to kill someone who wronged you. You believe in this night, don't you?

Sergeant I think you should just take care of your daughter. She's special, and you're very lucky. And I need the car.

Eva Sanchez There is no car.

Sergeant What?

Eva Sanchez I'm sorry, they don't have a car. But we needed you.

Sergeant And I needed the car.

Eva Sanchez I-I did what I had to. I did it for my daughter.

Sergeant I was doing this for my son. And I trusted you. You have no idea what you might have taken away from me tonight.

The Purge: Anarchy

Dinner Plans and Family Dynamics

Cali I'm gonna go get Papa for dinner.

Eva Sanchez He said don't bother him.

Cali Yeah. I just wanna see if he's awake.

Cali Mom!

Eva Sanchez What? What is it?

Cali Mom, come here!

Eva Sanchez What's wrong? Where's Papa?

Cali Look at this.

[''Showing her the note he left'']

Eva Sanchez What is this?

Cali Dearest Eva and Cali, my greatest heartache is seeing the two girls I love so much struggling in this world. I am dying, you know this. I'll be a martyr for a wealthy family tonight. They paid me for this service. $100,000 will be transferred into your accounts, my darlings. Take their money. Survive the night and live a safe life. I love you.

[''Reads aloud' in Papa Rico's voice']

Cali I don't understand.

Eva Sanchez It's how the wealthy Purge, baby. They buy poor and sick people, and they take them in their homes and they kill them where they're safe.

Cali Oh, my God. It's just like Carmelo said. Why would Papa do that? I don't understand why he would do that. He's... okay, he must have left something that could tell us where he went.

Eva Sanchez Cali.

Cali Like his... his phone. We should call his phone.

Eva Sanchez Cali.

Cali We could stop him.

[''Sees his wallet, watch, and phone on the dresser'']

Eva Sanchez Cali...

Cali Okay, that's fine. We can do something about this. I don't know what, but we can do something about it.

Eva Sanchez Cali, stop. Just stop. He's gone. He's gone.

The Purge: Anarchy

A Father's Quest for Justice

Eva Sanchez You want to tell us what we're doing here?

Sergeant Do you see that house on the corner? The owner of that house killed my son 12 months ago. Nicholas was coming home from school, and he swerved off the road. That bastard's blood alcohol level was three times the legal limit, but, you know, he got off on a technicality, so... him and his wife and his two little kids, well, they live in that house, happily ever after. Two weeks ago, I came here and I disabled his back barricade. That's what we're doing here. I want you both to stay in this car, do you understand me? I don't want you to move. You'll be safe. It's almost over.

Cali Don't, please.

Sergeant Let go of my arm.

Cali You can just stay here with us. And we can drive away and it'll be fine.

Sergeant Let go of my arm. Let go of my arm.

Cali No, please. I know. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry about what happened to your son.

Sergeant Let go of my arm!

The Purge: Anarchy

Call for Change and Resistance

Cali I know you. You once said that the market mentality would no longer keep the American people stunted. "We are outraged and we're fighting back.

Carmelo Johns Nice to meet you, too, young lady.

Eva Sanchez There's a lot of them out here.

Carmelo Johns Yeah, well, there's more of us. We're more pissed off. It's time for them to feel what it's like. Change only comes when their blood spills.
