Pacifier, The (film) Assigned to protect the endangered children of an assassinated scientist working on a secret invention, Navy SEAL Shane Wolf is suddenly faced with juggling two incompatible jobs–fighting evil while keeping house. Shane must not only defeat a world-threatening enemy but also wrangle teen rebel Zoe, uplift sullen 14-year-old Seth, and outwit eight-year-old Ninja-wannabe Lulu, simultaneously keeping toddler Peter and baby Tyler out of mischief, not to mention harm’s way. Being used to drop zones, demolitions, and destroying enemy targets, he has no idea what tough really is until he pits his courage against diapering, den-mothering, and driver’s education. He is truly out of his element, but this tough-guy loner soon realizes that he is facing the most important mission of his life–becoming part of a family and bringing them all closer together.
