A character is on the run. Very likely, he's been part of a Stern Chase from the word go. The logical course of action would be to do whatever he has to do while drawing the least amount of attention to himself he possibly can. He won't consider it for a moment. That random stranger over there needs help, and he won't stand idly by for the sake of anonymity. Often leads to detection by the people he's been evading all this time, but not as often as you'd think. This trope is why a Good Aligned character will always blow his cover when infiltrating a Wretched Hive. Depending on what the outcome is, it may result in a Big Damn Heroes moment. If done during a race, then he will usually end up in Last Place as a result. A villain might take advantage of the hero having this trait and try force them into a Sadistic Choice. Named after Dudley Do-Right, of course. Helping Granny Cross the Street is the definitive, cliché example of this trope. Closely related to Honor Before Reason and Good Samaritan. See also Samaritan Syndrome and Reed Richards Is Useless. A subtrope of The Drifter and Chronic Hero Syndrome, and supertrope of Inconvenient Hippocratic Oath. When done wrong, can be a form of Hero Ball or Stupid Good. Compare Knight Errant and We Help the Helpless. Dick Dastardly Stops to Cheat is the villainous version. |

Who Wants to Be a Superhero?: Stan Lee acknowledged this trope and punished people who didn't in a Secret Test of Character. In a test to change into your superhero outfit and race to the finish line the fastest, there was a little girl crying for her mother mere yards from the goal line. Anybody who stopped to track down the girl's mother or take the girl to the nearby park station automatically got a pass, but anybody who ignored her was a front-runner for the chopping block. | |

In Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Voldemort lays siege to Hogwarts and threatens to kill everyone unless Harry gives himself up willingly. Harry does so, destroying the Horcrux within him and protecting the people in Hogwarts the same way his mother's death protected him—in other words, Harry did exactly what Voldemort expected, but for completely different reasons than Voldemort had expected. | |

A good deal of the episodes of Samurai Jack involve Jack finding a way to travel back to his own time, but passing it up to help a bystander. Indeed, Jack probably wouldn't be Jack without this trope. A particularly egregious example as the Grand Finale confirms he would have retroactively prevented the danger in the first place if he'd just taken the opportunity to get back to the past. | |

Defied in Tales of Berseria. Velvet has one goal - kill the Big Bad - and anything else is wasted time. She will consider doing jobs for tangible progress towards this goal, but since she's the main character, these become main quest objectives. Sidequests? The rest of the party has to drag her into them kicking and screaming. It's not until right before the final dungeon that the right combination of Character Development and lack of time pressure coincide to persuade Velvet to take the blinkers off and let her companions resolve some of their personal quests. | |

Kenzo Tenma from Monster will never let an injury go ignored. Ever. At one point, an unscrupulous character wanted to recruit him as an underground physician, but really, that's a good part of what he was doing already. It actually turned out very poorly... because he convinced the patient to turn himself in and didn't even charge him. | |

In the Honor Harrington novel Honor Among Enemies, the Havenite light cruiser Vaubon is in the Silesian Confederacy to raid Manticoran shipping when they stumble on the aftermath of a vicious pirate attack on a Manticoran vessel. Although the pirates are in effect assisting them in their mission, they are so repulsed and outraged by the barbarity they find that they launch a hunt for them, ultimately stumbling across another Manticoran freighter that's under attack, and coming in to the rescue even while being outnumbered by the raiders and breaking their orders by assisting an enemy vessel. They drive the raiders off but then discover they are facing Harrington herself in a Q-ship that massively outguns them and are forced to surrender. After they still assist her in tracking down the pirates, Harrington arranges for their release back to Haven. As repayment for their honorable behavior, she fakes a report that the Q-Ship was pretending to be a ship from a different star-nation (that the Vaubon would have been free to assist) so the Vaubon's crew can claim they weren't knowingly coming to the aid of a Manticoran ship. | |

Pointedly averted in Obi-Wan Kenobi. The Inquisitors explain that it's so easy to hunt Jedi because Jedi can't help getting involved and helping people. This leads to stories, which leads the Inquisitors to them. The oft repeated phrase for this is "Jedi hunt themselves". Kenobi manages to live longer than most because even though it pains him, he avoids stepping in when he sees injustice. | |

The heroes of G.I. Joe: Renegades get this with varying intensity. On one extreme is Scarlett, who is only concerned with clearing the team's good name and resists helping; on the other end is Duke who has to right every wrong he sees. The others fall somewhere between these two ends. | |

The main character of DmC: Devil May Cry, while undercover, knocks a can of evil soda of doom out of a little girl's hands, leading to his detection. Of course, to those unaware of the soda being evil this is a vile thing to do, and her parents would just buy her another can leading to twice the profits for the demons... | |

Harry Potter, the boy with the "saving people thing", is of course prone to this. In Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, the second task of the Triwizard Tournament is rescuing a hostage from some mermaids. Harry gets there first but ends up coming up last because he waits to make sure all the hostages are saved. It's then pointed out to him that it was all part of the contest and nobody was actually in danger, but he gets extra points from the judges for heroism. In Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, the Trio enacted an impromptu mass breakout of Muggle-borns in the middle of an undercover mission to pick up a MacGuffin from one of the densest centers of Death Eater activity. His need to save people is exploited by Voldemort not once, but twice: In Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Voldemort uses the connection between him and Harry to make Harry believe that Sirius is in danger. Harry storming the Ministry of Magic to save him is what gets Sirius killed in the end. In Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Voldemort lays siege to Hogwarts and threatens to kill everyone unless Harry gives himself up willingly. Harry does so, destroying the Horcrux within him and protecting the people in Hogwarts the same way his mother's death protected him—in other words, Harry did exactly what Voldemort expected, but for completely different reasons than Voldemort had expected. |

Uncle Grandpa: In "The Vacation", Uncle Grandpa decides to take a break on a tropical island paradise, where a lot of things bear a strong resemblance to Uncle Grandpa, who they believe is the chosen one. He spends most of his time trying to relax while waterskiing, zip-lining, scuba diving, and eating hot dogs, all while the island is in danger of being destroyed, and after persistent insistence from the villagers, U.G. reluctantly decides to jump in the volcano and save the island. | |

Wilt from Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends often stops whatever he's doing to help someone in need. This often causes him to miss things he wants to do. In "Where There's a Wilt, There's a Way", he ends up missing a basketball game due to having spent the whole day helping his friends with their needs, and in "Good Wilt Hunting", he ends up taking a few detours in his quest to find his creator, Jordan Michaels, as a result of helping those in need, and the rest of his friends from Foster's keep losing track of him when they follow him. | |

Lobsang turns back to help!. As a result, the entire world gets frozen in time. Susan sto Helit lampshades this hard when she finds out. Subverted in Lords and Ladies. While competing in a Staring Contest for recognition as a true witch, Granny Weatherwax stops to help a little boy who hurt himself on the protection wards. However, despite technically losing, the audience declares her a winner because only a true witch would sacrifice her pride to help an injured child. |

When the crew of the Enterprise has to go to a hospital to rescue Chekov in Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home, McCoy is horrified by what he sees the 20th-century doctors doing ("The Spanish Inquisition of medicine") and stops to help patients. Admittedly, the "stop to help" part doesn't take much time (he deals with a woman's kidney failure by giving her a couple of pills) but it still (a) potentially draws attention to what's supposed to be a covert mission and (b) has the possibility of changing history. Later, when Kirk, McCoy, and Chekhov are trying the escape the hospital (with the SFPD in hot pursuit), Kirk runs into a patient on crutches, McCoy can be briefly seen in the background abandoning the chase to make sure the guy's okay. |

Even though she's on a race against time to destroy Artemis' Orbital Elevator before its completion, she constantly stops to assist others in need; on multiple occasions this leads to herself or Black Trike getting damaged, which results in further detours while they track down the materials needed for repairs. As a result, they fail to reach the Orbital Elevator in time and Lunatic is able to begin an Orbital Bombardment that kills many of the people she spent all that time saving in the first place. | |

Fahrenheit: Protagonist Lucas Kane is on the run from the police due to a murder he committed while being possessed by a thousand-year-old Mayan Voodoo priest. While meeting his brother in a park in the middle of winter, a child playing on the frozen lake nearby suddenly breaks through the ice and falls into the freezing water. Yet, at the same time, a pair of beat cops are patrolling the park, and one cop happens to be the same man who witnessed Lucas commit the murder from before. Lucas feels compelled to rescue the child, but can't let the cop see him! Dilemma! There are two valid choices here: You can choose to walk away at the cost of a big chunk of Sanity Meter, or pull the kid out of the water and resuscitate him. Anything else results in the cop arresting Lucas and causing a game over. If you save the kid, this is referenced later when the cop admits to Carla that he could have made an arrest, but couldn't bring himself to do it right after witnessing such a selfless act. Carla says she probably would have felt the same way in the other cop's shoes. | |

Subverted in Captain America: The First Avenger - during a chase with a HYDRA agent who assassinates Dr. Erskine and then runs away, Steve Rogers (after receiving the Super Soldier Serum) chases down the agent. The agent tries to distract him by throwing a child into the river, but the child, as it turns out, can swim, and tells Steve to continue going after the agent whilst the child saves himself. | |

They manage to find the father deer and pull him out of a hole he fell in, but the boat leaves by the time they barely reach the harbor. | |

Near the end of the episode, Krumm falls off his board and is in danger of drowning. Ickis wastes no time in rescuing Krumm, finding their friendship to be more valuable than winning a trophy. Vloreena ends up winning the race, but Ickis is praised as a hero for saving Krumm. | |

In Dragon Age: The Crown of Thorns, it is played perfectly straight by the dwarven noble protagonist, of all people. You'd think that a politician that spawns one plan after another and who has the whole world on his shoulders would be a bit less eager to go into potentially deadly situations with just his dog as help. Turns out that he doesn't think too hard on whether or not to totally go out of his way in the opposite direction (about a day's journey too) and check on Honnleath and if anyone was still alive there, even though [[spoiler:he'd finally seen the first human after roaming the Korcari Wilds for weeks, during which time he almost got killed several times, nearly dyed of starvation and refused a deal with Flemeth that she would not outline until agreed upon. And his armor was so rusted and worn that it didn't even survive the trip to the golem village, although, true enough, the demon shattered most of it. Raonar does reason that it's important to assess whether the horde really reached so far west in such a short time or if it's just a group of stragglers. One would think this is just him looking for justification, but that wouldn't fit with his Brutal Honesty policy that he uses on everyone, including himself, meaning that he manages to play this trope AND avert Honor Before Reason altogether (after all, he had gained some nifty magical abilities to tip the scales). | |

In Kaguya-sama: Love Is War, Iino runs against Shirogane during the latter's campaign for re-election as Student Council President. In the debate with Iino, Shirogane is already at a massive advantage, and when Iino's turn to give a speech comes, she's frozen with stage fright due to the hostile crowd. This would have been the final nail in her coffin, but Shirogane gets on stage and insults her policies. Iino snaps out of her Heroic BSoD and debates with Shirogane, doing well enough that she almost wins the election. The more pragmatic Kaguya is rather annoyed with Shirogane, having hoped that Iino would have "self-destructed" without his intervention. However, she also loves that part of him as evidenced by the hearts in her eyes. | |

Arthur: In the episode "You Are Arthur," Arthur tries his hardest to outrun Brain but falls behind after he stops to help Muffy after she trips and hits the roadblocks. He doesn't win but does get featured in the newspaper, which he considers a better reward thus. In "D.W. Swims with the Fishes," D.W. goes back to help James during a swim race when his fin gets stuck on a lane marker. This costs her the win to Emily, but she apparently considered helping James to be its own reward. |

The A-Team: The team is always on the run from the military, but never seems to find a reason to flee the country. Instead they travel the country helping people everywhere, sometimes escaping in the nick of time. (This was actually explained in The Pilot. They stay in the U.S. because they are Americans and it's their country.) One particular example is in "Black Day at Bad Rock." The team has successfully gotten B.A. treated and locked the sheriff and his deputy in their own jail, ensuring they will not be able to catch them. They are heading out of town to avoid Lynch when Hannibal realizes that an outlaw motorcycle gang, the Barbarians, will be coming against the town to get their leader back. They turn the van around. |

Wacky Races: Peter Perfect often stops to do a good deed or help someone in need in almost every episode. This cost him the race at least once, as he screeched to a halt just before the finish line to avoid running over a cat that had wandered onto the track. It did earn him a new cat, though. Professor Pat Pending also frequently stops and uses his car's inventions to help the other racers, typically to deal with whatever trap Dastardly has set up this time. |

Later series (like Transformers: Prime) use this trope less, as the 'bots are forced to hide their robot modes from the general public to stay on the U.S. government's good side. Still, that doesn't stop them from helping out the government when they can (such as helping them take down the terrorist organization MECH). | |

In Mass Effect: A full Paragon Shepard, oh so much. No one is forcing you to pick every paragon option, whether it's played straight or averted depends on the player. But, then again... One of your squadmates in the second game, Samara, went through a situation like this when chasing down Nihlus, a Spectre you worked with in the previous game. As he killed a civilian, Samara was dedicated to killing him, due to her Justicar Code. Nihlus escaped by offering the choice of killing him, while an innocent dies, or saving the innocent and letting Nihlus escape. The Justicar Code explicitly states that the protection of the innocent outweighs all else, so she saved the individual while letting Nihlus evade her. She considered Nihlus a Worthy Opponent for thinking that up. | |

Harry gets there first but ends up coming up last because he waits to make sure all the hostages are saved.

In Quest for Glory III, your character (if you're a Fighter or The Paladin) has to become a member of the local tribe in order to advance the plot. However, your friend Yesufu is also participating in the Initiation Ceremony, and there's only room for one. At a pre-scripted point in the race, Yesufu is hurt and the proper response is to help him up. As it's later revealed that the entire point of the ceremony is to teach a lesson about supporting your friends and tribe, not stopping to help just gets you chewed out and a Non-Standard Game Over. | |

At the beginning of Marriage of Heaven and Hell, Makoto finds Aika Kiryuu critically injured in a forest and heals her, which ends up revealing his secret identity as an angel to the fallen angels who attacked her, which he himself does not even know. He is, shortly after, saved by Rias Gremory and, after he figures out his true identity, defeats and kills Kalawarner; one of the attacking fallen angels. Because of this, Raynare is then sent to hunt him down and assassinate him and she and the rest of the remaining fallen angels attempt to take over Kuoh Town. | |

Subverted in Lords and Ladies. While competing in a Staring Contest for recognition as a true witch, Granny Weatherwax stops to help a little boy who hurt himself on the protection wards. However, despite technically losing, the audience declares her a winner because only a true witch would sacrifice her pride to help an injured child. | |

Frontier Circus: In "The Race", Ben stops to help an injured rider, slowing himself down, much to Tony's disgust. Later Ben stages a fall, forcing Tony to choose between winning the race or helping his friend. The Power of Friendship wins out. | |

Man of Steel: Essentially how we're introduced to Clark. He's forced to Walk the Earth because he's afraid of what people will do when they discover his abilities, but he can't blend in for long because of his Samaritan Syndrome. Lois flat-out tells him that the only way he'll stay completely hidden is to stop saving people. He's hampered in his fight against the Kryptonians by the fact that he's trying to protect human bystanders at the same time. |

In the second episode of Code Geass, Suzaku abandons his pursuit of the terrorist commander (which, unbeknownst to him, is Lelouch) in order to save a mother and child that had fallen out of a damaged building. This allows Lelouch to proceed to Clovis' apartment, Geass him into stopping the conflict, and then kill him. | |

As the text at the head of the trope page shows, this is a near-constant issue for Spider-Man, and (of course) causes him no end of both professional and personal problems. Entirely justified, as the reason Spider-Man is in the superhero business in the first place is because of the time he didn't stop to help; the outcome of that choice haunts him to this day, leaving him incapable of not trying to help when he can. | |

Iron Fist (1975): Danny and Misty begin the series proper (following on from Marvel Premiere) going to rescue a kidnapped Colleen Wing. Danny gets a little distracted by fighting the supervillain Radion, and then saving another man from the I.R.A., which gives Colleen's abductors juuuust enough time to successfully brainwash her into a killing frenzy. Whoops. | |

Fate/stay night: Good god, Shirou. Helping people is one thing. Helping little girls out is even better. Helping little girls who were just stabbed in the chest by what is damn near a physical god, at least compared to YOU, is not an advisable course of action.

The Incredibles: The entire first act is one long string of Mr Incredible, who is on a schedule, stopping to perform heroics: first he takes a detour to intercept a police chase while also getting a cat from a tree; then he goes on to apprehend a purse snatcher, save a man jumping off a building, interrupt a supervillain robbing a bank, saving a kid from a bomb attached to his clothing, and stop a train from crashing. He constantly checks his watch proclaiming "I got time" until he runs out of time and it is revealed that he is now late for his own wedding. | |

She was protecting a butterfly from getting its wings wet from the water of a busted fire hydrant. Bubbles is dressed down for it which hurts her feelings so much that she runs away from home. | |

This trope is the catalyst for the entire Peter Parker Needs A Hug series. Peter, immediately after No Way Home, was wandering New York when he saw a random portal and heard someone calling for help on the other side. He goes through and ends up in Gotham, where he sees an old man being beaten by a thug. Peter gets between the two and keeps the thug at bay until Red Hood arrives, saving the man's life and earning the vigilante's respect. | |

Burn Notice: This is a key element of Michael Weston's personality. No matter how much trouble he is in personally he will still take the time to help someone who needs his brand of help. His friends and family frequently lampshade this but at the same time, they are the ones usually bringing these cases to him. At one point Michael has just survived a bomb going off right in front of him and he is still in shock but he realizes that a man is about to step in front of a bus so he saves him. He then finds out that the man is trying to kill himself because some conmen stole the money he needed for his son's medical treatment. Despite the fact that a Mad Bomber is after him Michael does not hesitate to help the man get his money back. | |
