I pledge allegiance to the flag
of the United States of America,
and to the Republic for which it stands,
one nation, under God, indivisible.
With liberty and justice for all.
Remember that pledge,
because tonight you will be tested.
You'll be tried in every imaginable way.
But you will triumph
if you show your allegiance and Purge.
It's going to be hell.
But it's also a gift.
Twelve hours of freedom.
That's just over 43,000 seconds
to change your life forever.
But look, I wouldn't lie to you.
What I'm talking about... it's hard.
Not everyone's up for it.
Participation is dangerous. It's risky.
But that risk gives way to unyielding reward.
So prepare, plan, pray if you have to.
Do whatever you need to do.
Just make sure you're ready for a world of possibility.
Life is fleeting. Blink and it's gone.
But when you embrace the Purge...
when you rise up, ready to submit to its will...
anything can happen.
_
Okay, enough bullshit.
I'm tying up the girls, then we move on.
Paige.
Come here. Turn around.
Put your hands behind your back.
It's working, just like they said it would.
I can feel it, the power of the Purge.
Penelope. Come on.
Please. Come on!
It's almost dawn. We don't have much time.
No more interruptions. You too.
Hey.
On stage.
Now. Get up.
When I walk out of here,
I'm going to be free of everything.
And what about us?
And what about you?
Charlie, Eileen, Jane.
How is it fair that you're free and we die?
That's the Purge, Jenna. Sit down.
It offers an equal opportunity for everyone,
a perfectly level playing field.
Any of you could have come after me.
But you didn't, did you?
I took the initiative.
I could have died ten times over rounding each of you up.
But I was willing to take the risk 'cause I wanted it more.
Listen, my wife is...
Pregnant.
I know. Stop reminding me.
Please, just let her go.
Miguel, listen up.
Lotta people depend on that carnival to make their nut.
This is the price of being a hero, son.
Fan out. Find him.
Pete, too.
You mean Pete the cop?
Yeah, he ain't untouchable.
And find them fast.
We can't do jack shit once that siren sounds.
All right, let's sweep the area.
Pete, we don't have time for this.
If we don't take care of this right now,
it follows us to the school.
Look, we don't know what's waiting for us there.
Say we take a few out right here and then we move.
The guards will be easy,
but Rex and the collectors,
they round up people for a living.
They're strapped and they're pissed.
But they're spreading out.
Yeah, trying to cover more ground,
but isolating themselves while they do it.
They think we're running.
We go on offense.
We surprise them.
Let's go.
Shit.
- You all right? - Yeah.
School's this way.
Let's go.
Thank you for going home tonight.
Made my job a lot easier.
I don't know if I could have gotten into
the Stanton compound by myself.
How did you know we were there?
I have been following you for weeks.
Look, Mr. Owens, would you please...
Joe. You remember when we met?
That's what I told you to call me.
Come on, Rick, you remember.
- Mr. Betancourt. - Oh, please.
Call me Rick.
Joe.
There you go.
Can't believe you picked this place.
Yeah. I drove by it the other day
and I realized I haven't been here since high school.
- How'd you even know about it? - Mm.
I had a cousin that worked at Saticoy.
This was his spot,
probably because they never carded.
- What's his name? - Tony Schroeder?
- Schroeder. Yeah. - Yeah.
- Great guy. Hell of a line engineer. - Yeah.
What's he up to?
Oh, when they closed the factory,
he moved in with the in-laws and...
We haven't kept in touch since then unfortunately.
Some of us, you know, we manage.
Which I guess is why we're sitting here, right?
You saw my rate sheet. What do you think?
Oh, this is a... this is a big job.
Plan is to start leasing in the fall.
So you're going to need Purge security on the building
- and the individual units? - That's correct.
Who's providing the shell system?
- Sandin. - Oh, the best.
You've installed for them before?
Absolutely.
A bunch of homes and a couple offices downtown.
I can get you references if you want them.
You've never done a building of this size though, right?
It won't be a problem.
I have been ready and waiting for something like this.
I mean, a contract like yours, it's a level up,
and I'd be excited to tackle it.
Honestly, it's a big step up for us too.
I gotta tell you, Joe,
I feel like I'm constantly righting the ship.
You know, putting out one fire after the other.
But... one big break and it will all pay off, right?
I'm counting on it.
I can start tomorrow?
I bet.
No, why don't you send me your quotes when you have them?
We'll go over the numbers and agree on a contract.
Just remember, we're a small outfit,
so there's not much wiggle room.
Got it. Great.
Do you wanna get a beer
and celebrate our potential partnership properly?
Sure, I could go for a beer.
I'll get the first round.
And I'll tell you a great story about your cousin.
Okay.
Shit.
I don't have to explain what a contract is, do I?
I don't know, do you know what a contract is?
Because you agreed to it.
You took advantage.
You used my inexperience and my enthusiasm
to make sure there was plenty of room in here
to screw me.
I don't see your signature here, Jenna.
Rick handles the contracts.
Is that so you don't dirty your delicate little hands?
- Because I trust him. - So did I.
And then your husband ruined me.
He said my work was subpar...
negligent... so he wouldn't have to pay me.
I lost all my other contracts
just so your company could save a few bucks.
Joe, we paid you everything we owed
and then you tried to extort me.
I came to your office. You saw.
Do you remember, Jenna?
We agreed on a number.
I bought equipment, custom software,
I hired subcontractors based on that.
Right, and I realize that but,
look, none of the security nodes passed the inspection.
- What do you want me to do? - I checked the system myself.
Let me come in and fix it.
I'm sure I can figure out what went wrong.
Joe, I'm underwater here.
I can't take any more delays.
Give me two days.
We already hired somebody else.
So I have to just take your word that the system's faulty?
Let me see the admin log.
We're done here.
You're screwing me and you know it.
I did good work and now you're pulling this?
We agreed on terms.
Yeah, but you put stuff in the fine print
that I couldn't even pronounce.
You bought me a beer, you pretended to be my partner,
all so you could bend me over?
Joe, your work was...
My work was top notch.
But that doesn't matter,
because I'm just cannon fodder
on your way to the top, right?
Another fire to put out.
No, I wanted this to work. I did.
This is going to put me under.
Do you even care?
I do and...
Then pay me, you prick!
Okay, you know what?
We don't want to have to call the police.
Please leave.
I know why you don't hang out
with your cousin Tony anymore.
Because you're better than us now, right?
White collar. Big shot.
Get out.
Go to hell, you smug son of a bitch.
So what, Jenna?
Are you really that blind to who you married
or is it just willful ignorance?
Jenna, I'm going to say this one more time.
We paid him exactly what we owed.
She doesn't believe you.
She sees you for who you really are.
No, it's not my fault. He did shoddy work.
Jenna, he wants to Purge Penelope
because she didn't say "thank you."
You put us here.
It's just like the house.
Damn it.
It's rigged all the way around.
- Can you take it apart? - Probably.
But I need time.
Let's go, Pete. Move, move.
_
What does a signature mean to you, Rick?
To me, it represents a promise made in good faith.
A guarantee protected by the rule of law.
Now, tonight, the rule of law is suspended.
But during the rest of the year we are bound by it.
It is the only way our society can function as intended.
Don't you understand that?
You're not above the law.
You sign a contract, you honor it.
Joe, I fulfilled every element of that contract.
You knew what you were signing.
This isn't my fault. The end didn't check out.
- You see anything? - I think we lost them for now.
- Fuck. - This way.
What do you got?
Shit. It's rigged on both sides.
What's the play?
Can you take that one down without it going off?
Move it to blow somewhere else?
I think so. Why?
I'll go back for the one on the wall.
I'll cover you.
I got a stupid idea.
All right.
I was clearly within my right to exercise discretion.
- The standard... - There you go again,
throwing $10 words at me
- because you think I can't follow along. - What are you doing?
- I think I can get us out of here. - Stop wasting our time.
- Will you help? - Oh, yeah.
What I want is a confession.
Come on, Rick, tell the truth.
I am. I paid you.
Doesn't even matter now.
He's going to kill us.
Maybe this was the inevitable end.
What? How can you say that?
We told ourselves we could take the devil's money
- and do great things with it. - Jenna...
I think the moment we decided to take money from the devil,
whatever the reason,
we opened the door to this.
No. No, no. We don't deserve this.
- Confess. - I'm talking to my wife.
Look, I promise, I would never...
Please, Rick.
I don't want the last thing we say to each other to be a lie.
I love you.
Confess! Say it!
Okay! Okay...
I did it.
We took a bath on the project downtown.
And I had to cut costs.
I found a loophole in his contract,
so I took advantage, but,
I mean, it's just part of business.
The loophole.
Jesus Christ. You're not mad at me, Joe.
You're mad at the way things are.
Just look around. This is the way the world works.
Everyone screws everyone all the way down the line.
You think I wasn't getting squeezed by city managers?
And the zoning board and the Goddamn bank?
I saw it do this to my parents and it broke them.
I wasn't going to let it happen to us.
Are you ready for your judgment?
Listen to me.
I love you.
I love you so much.
And I'm sorry.
I love you, too.
She had nothing to do with this, okay?
She didn't... she didn't even know.
I know you're gonna kill me, but...
please can you just let her go?
Let our daughter live.
- Guilty by association. - No! No, Jesus, no.
I'll do anything.
Please.
I know you will.
And in compromise.
I'm gonna give you a choice, Jenna.
Purge your husband.
Teach him the consequences of his actions
and live to tell your daughter what her father did.
There's one bullet in this gun.
If you use it on Rick,
I'm gonna let you and the baby live.
_
See anything?
The hell did they go?
Remind me again what the hell we're doing out here.
Hurry.
Purge.
I can't. Please.
Look, I'm not gonna waste a lot of time with this.
Either you pull the trigger or I pull it twice.
Purge.
- Rick? - Do it.
It's okay, Jenna. It's okay.
Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on.
Everything we've been through tonight...
Everything with Lila...
You don't have to give your life for me.
This is my fault, Jen.
This is the only way out.
I'm so sorry, Rick.
I got so wrapped up in my own dreams, my feelings.
I took what we had for granted.
No. I love you.
- Do it. - No.
For our baby, Jenna. Do it.
Good-bye.
Now!
Did you really think I was gonna give you a loaded weapon?
Sit down.
You and the baby are safe,
because a deal is a deal, right, Rick?
- No, let me go! - What the hell?
It's my right to Purge.
Please, please don't kill me. Please don't kill me.
I don't want to d...
- Too late to surrender? - This son of a bitch.
Looks like you lost your hat.
Where's Miguel?
There's a bounty on his head for wrecking the carnival.
We collect, I'm back in the black.
Maybe we can make a deal.
I don't want to make a deal with you, Pete.
You started all this shit.
You want your money, right?
What's the bounty?
I'll double it.
Double?
Just give me the number.
Call Miguel out here first.
Get away from her.
I have the right, same as you.
I need to cleanse.
Don't you dare.
She is mine to purge.
Put it down, now.
Look, you want your money? I'll pay it.
Hell, I'll bankrupt my bar if I have to to save his life.
Or would you rather just shoot him, dead?
'Cause you're just a petty, bloodthirsty little shit.
If I'm being honest,
it's a little of both.
Oh, sh...
Come on! Go, go, go, go, go, go.
- Come on! - Go, go, go, go, run!
These sons of bitches got bamboozled.
Let's go, they're down.
Come on, do it. You gotta do it.
You gotta do it. You gotta do it.
I am not gonna let that bitch ruin me.
I'm coming, bitch!
_
Clear.
Ready. Go.
- Jenna, get back! - Put it down!
- Drop it! Now, drop it! - Put the gun down, now!
We're not here for you, okay? Look.
We're here for my sister.
Rick, it's okay.
It's okay.
Easy.
We're good.
Her name's Penelope. Has she...
She's alive... she's here. She saved us.
Where is she?
I don't know, she ran ahead. We got separated.
- The man who took you? - He's here, too.
You're gonna come with us. We'll keep you safe.
Are either of you hurt?
Thank you, my family is...
Get back, Jenna!
- Pete! - I'm hit.
- It's okay. - He got me in the leg.
How bad?
No, it's nothing, man. I'm fine.
- I'm fine. - Let me check on it.
No, no. I've got those two.
You gotta get out here.
Now, find Penelope.
- Pete. - Go.
Miguel, now. Go.
You gotta push. Put pressure on it.
Press hard.
You're okay, man. You're okay.
- Okay, okay. - All right?
- Come on, this way. - No, no, this way!
We have to stay together.
Paige?
Paige! Oh, my God.
Penelope!
- Hey, next year? - Yeah?
Let's just get on a cruise and go to Tahiti.
Deal?
Yeah.
Okay.
Hey, you should take her away.
Let her grow up anywhere but here.
No, no, we're getting you to a hospital.
Rick?
Just give her... give her a kiss for me.
Rick...
No... Rick.
Rick. Rick.
We need to put some distance between us and Joe.
- We gotta go. - No.
Rick, I'm sorry.
We'll come back for him when it's safe.
Let go of me!
You little bitch.
You almost ruined everything.
But right now we can have the trial.
Just the two of us.
It's a little late for that now.
We give people one strike in this country now?
Don't talk to me about what we do in this country.
Where the hell were you born?
- Staten Island. - What about your parents?
What difference does that make?
This is our home.
This country used to be a place
- where everybody could thrive. - Not everybody.
All that hope and change bullshit
didn't get us anywhere.
America was circling the drain until the Purge.
Suddenly each of us had the power
to make things better and we did.
- At gunpoint? - At every point.
No. I woke up today convinced
that my life only had value if I was a victim.
- I was wrong. - Oh, come on.
You know you don't have it in you to be anything else.
When the rains come and flood this rock, will you...
Sink or swim? Will you drown?
Or fight your way to shore.
Yeah, Bobby Sheridan.
Tavis played us his lectures.
Said we needed to understand why Purgers are broken,
Then you know exactly why I'm doing this.
I do. I just don't know why you believe it will help.
Because for me,
it can't get any worse.
God bless America, where I have the freedom
to decide for myself what's right
and the freedom to change my circumstances.
This might be your America, but it's not mine.
Right now it's the only one that matters.
No. The country you're destroying...
I want to help rebuild.
- And I'm not the only one. - Huh.
I see people that fight every day
to protect this country,
even after it took everything from them.
And I see people... complete strangers...
picking each other up, not tearing each other down.
And I see other people...
desperate, angry people...
hurting each other every year
because they've been manipulated into doing it.
So Purge all you want.
But when you're done, what will be left?
A nation of murderers.
If Purging really worked...
if everyone actually got better...
Like our great nation, I will be reborn.
Pen!
It's okay.
It's over now.
It's all over.
God damn it.
Finally.
God damn it.
It wasn't supposed to end this way.
I was so looking forward
to this morning, my clean slate.
What the fuck are you talking about?
I failed. All that work I did
and almost none of it went right.
Just like life.
God damn it.
Now we get back to normal.
Come on. Without rules...
We're animals.
I'm a law-abiding citizen.
The Purge is over.
Take it.
Take your sister and go home.
Let's go.
I'll catch up with you guys next year.
- Next year? - Yeah.
Next Purge.
I'll finish it with both of you.
Miguel, it's murder.
You'll do a lot of good work on Purge night,
but you won't be able to get it all done.
You'll taste failure.
People will always surprise you
when they don't want to die.
- Joe? - He's dead.
I figured.
I heard the shots.
Yeah.
Just before the sirens.
You know what I'm saying?
I do.
That's the beauty of this holiday.
Purge night ends,
but the Purge goes on and on.
What you didn't accomplish tonight...
there's always next year.
- Go and call this guy. - All right.
_
- All right. - It's bullshit.
_
Hey, Pete, look.
Look what the cat dragged in.
Hey, Pete.
What's up, Pete?
Have a drink with me before you head out?
I'll take a whiskey.
No, you will not take a whiskey. You're not 21.
So I can kill people tonight but I can't drink?
It's a good point. Whiskeys all around?
- Cheers. - Cheers.
Nice.
Okay. Okay.
... just 30 minutes until American citizens
lock themselves in for 12 hours of violence.
In a briefing earlier today, the President was asked to comment
on whether France would ever consider adopting a similar program.
She avoided giving a direct answer, but did mention that the EU
will debate the issue later this year.
After how last year ended,
are you sure I can't convince you to stay?
They'd be proud... of both of you.
It's almost commencement.
- Yup. - Okay.
But if you get jammed up...
No, I'll take care of him.
I'm the brains of this outfit.
- Semper fi, brother. - Oorah.
What does "oorah" mean?
It's a military thing.
Yeah, but what does it mean? Oorah's not a real word.
It means stop asking questions
and keep it moving, soldier.
Come on.
Oorah.
We're now going live
to our affiliate in America...
In the wake of last year's brutal attacks,
NFAA loyalty squads have worked double time,
trying to curb the threat of so-called
"revolutionary Purge night terrorism."
There is a hush now over the city
as Purge commencement looms.
Hopefully you and your loved ones are safe in your homes,
as we should start to hear
the emergency services announcement at any...
- This is your emergency... - And that's it, another Purge
is now underway.
My camera crew and I are going to go inside
Come on.
Thanks.
Hopefully I won't need it, but you know how it goes.
- Ready, Pen? - Yeah.
Let's go save some lives.
