F is for Felony (Huge Spoiler Alert from Forty Five years ago! In the Enforcer, Tyne Daly's character, Officer Kate Moore is asked to describe her most exciting Felony arrest, by Detective [Dirty] Harry Callahan, during her interview for a Detective position in the S.F.P.D. After admitting she hadn't made a Felony or Misdemeanor arrest, Officer Moore is promoted to Detective as part of a new S.F.P.D. diversity program. She's partnered with Detective Callahan, and they go after the really scummy main bad guy (Bobby Maxwell - would qualify to have been at the Capitol Building in January, if not for...), who kidnapped the Mayor and took him to Alcatraz Island. Why? Because it was S.F. on a sunny day. Chasing Bobby around Alcatraz Prison, the detectives decided to split up. Detective Moore finds the Mayor unhurt in an interior jail cell, and starts to guide him out towards 'safety'. Meanwhile Detective Callahan is discontinuing the criminal's disobedience with his 44 Magnum. As Harry searches for Bobby, Kate sees Bobby behind Harry, and she calls out to warn Harry to get down. Bobby fires his weapon and hits Kate in her torso (twice, if I recall correctly). Bobby runs away, and Harry tries to comfort Kate. Kate says, "No worries about me, Detective (paraphrasing). Go get him." Kate dies, and Harry with sufficient motivation ends the scourge of Bobby Maxwell with a military grade anti-tank weapon, while a helicopter flies overhead, announcing that the ransom for the Mayor is ready. The Mayor grovels in the vicinity of Harry, as he goes to attend to, and escort his partner, the former Detective Moore off Alcatraz Island. I can't spoil it any more than that).
