Despite it is explained in separated pieces and brief quotes throughout the movie, it's possible to compile it as a complete backstory: in 2010 Los Angeles suffered the Big One, the feared great earthquake that ruined all the city and caused a mass chaos, drifting in violent riots where the scared civil population decided to close themselves in their homes looking for survive to the out-of-control crime wave. After the merge in 2010 of Los Angeles, Santa Barbara, and San Diego in San Angeles, of somewhat way Dr. Raymond Cocteau did get to build a new civilization over the ashes of the previous, creating a peaceful state of mind for imposing several penalties, censoring any behavior that he considered unacceptable (i.e. rude language and sexual relations) and changing real money by digital money with a microchip grafted inside the back of the hand. However, not all the population accepted this new government, running away to underground to avoid be captured and altered with Cocteau's technology using synaptic reprogramming and DNA's manipulation to be citizens quiet and servants, living in the sewers as outsiders. Taken as harmless exiled, the arrival of Edgar Friendly (in an undetermined point previous to Simon Phoenix's escape) and his natural leadership to turn these exiled in commandos made that Cocteau changed Phoenix's synaptic reprogramming to turn him in a specialized terrorist, in addition implanting him a safe code to make him unable to kill Cocteau, with the mission to introduce Phoenix in the sewers to locate and exterminate Friendly, leaving free way to Cocteau to create a totalitarian state with security cameras in every room, stricter alarm systems against misbehavior, anonymous hotlines to their neighbor's infractions and an enzyme injection for all citizen that be insure everyone have the same I.Q., the same weight, and the same desire to think only happy thoughts, expanding it with time to another cities.
