For instance, the main character and a lady cop were investigating some shit together and got jumped by a team of hit men. We're given to understand that they're both pretty serious operators and as such, there's a shoot-out, but they handle themselves OK with minor injury. But then they notice one of the hit men is strapped with explosives, so they flee the building before he blows it up, narrowly escaping. After, of course, the cops show up and the EMS and there's a circus as you'd expects. The lady cop got burned on her back and so the main character is waiting around for her to finish with the EMS to talk to her.
