Navy Seal Lt. Shane Wolf (Vin Diesel) and his team of commandos are assigned to rescue and return a highly important scientist holding super-confidential information, Howard Plummer (Tate Donovan). Tragically, when Wolf and his squad close in to free Plummer, everything goes horribly wrong -- Plummer is killed. Following the failed mission, Wolf's captain gives him a new assignment -- to guard the Plummer children from their late father's enemies. Knowing the family is in real potential danger, he takes on the assignment to redeem himself. But he'll do so alone, as Plummer's wife, Julie (Faith Ford), is off to Switzerland to try and retrieve some of her deceased husband's belongings. For all his battle experience, Wolf has his hands full with these kids and soon finds himself on his toughest mission yet.
