If the main character is a superhero or firefighter, he'll eventually come around to saving people from a burning building - usually there's a mother carrying a small child screaming about "My baby" and so on.
A variation is the mother having to drop the baby from a window so the firefighters and save if with that trampoline thing, so the drama is her trusting them to catch the baby, or the hero running to grab it before it hits the ground.
