The Pacifier Page #4
SHANE:
Sir. Thank you. I... appreciate your
confidence.
Invigorated, he pulls off bandages, disconnects an IV,
and starts to rise.
SHANE (CONT’D)
I’ll need to put a team together. I’m
gonna need the mini sub, I need access to
an EP3 aries 2 spy plane...
BILL:
(interrupting:
)Negative. It’s not that kind of mission.
Shane listens, intrigued.
BILL (CONT’D)
Two days ago, I got a call from the
professor’s wife... Widow. She told me
someone had broken into her home.
Searched the place, top to bottom.

9.
BILL(CONT'D)
She’s scared. The family’s scared.
Whoever killed the professor must think
G.H.O.S.T. is in that house. Maybe it is,
maybe it isn’t. Either way, I need
someone to stay at that house, and
protect them. And while you’re there -find
out if the program is in there.
SHANE:
That’s it? Why would you want me for
that, sir.
BILL:
The professor’s wife requested you.
Shane is surprised... Bill pulls a tiny tape recorder
from his pocket, presses play, we hear PROFESSOR
PLUMMER’S voice.
.
CHARLES (O.S.)
Honey, I’m alive. Listen: A lot can
happen between here and home -- if
anything happens to me, call Lt. Shane
Wolfe. He’s a good man... anyway, I
should go. I’ll call you in an hour. I
love you.
Shane is shocked, hearing the dead man’s voice.
BILL:
... You gotta problem with this mission?
SHANE:
Sirnosir. It’s just that... I’ve never
been very good with kids, sir. Not even
when I was a kid sir.
CUT TO:
INT. SHANE’S APARTMENT - NIGHT
Shane packs his duffel bag. He opens a drawer: There’s
five t-shirts, identical to the one he wears. He opens
another drawer:
Five khaki pants, also identical to theone he wears. He opens the closet: There’s a massive fur-
collared coat. Hm. He rejects it.
Shane packs his duffel with military gear: GPS compass,
night vision goggles, camouflage vest, machete... they
all go in. Shane heads to the door, then goes back to his
chest of drawers. He reaches in, and pulls out a small,
old MEDAL:
the ribbon is faded and frayed. He looks at itfor a moment, then unzips his suit and pins it to the
inside, like it’s a lucky rabbit’s foot.
10.
EXT. SUBURBAN STREET - AFTERNOON
A taxi door opens. Shane looks like a bad ass, ready for
anything. He steps from the taxi onto an adorable TROLL
doll on the sidewalk. It SQUEAKS.
.
Shane’s P.O.V.: Julie’s unkempt suburban house, with toys
all over the lawn, and a “BLESS THIS MESS” welcome mat.
Shane double-checks the address. The sprinklers go off.
Shane darts to the door and rings the bell (it’s one of
those long cheerful doorbells).
