Also, in the movie The Fugitive, Dr. Nichols helping out Dr. Kimble with money, not turning him in, etc., aided the plot but it made no sense at all as it just allowed Kimble more time to build his case against...Dr. Nichols.

This always bothered me.
I'll try to think of more as I know I have been frustrated on more than one occasion while watching a movie.

It might have been more suspicious for Nichols to refuse to give Kimble $200 and tell him to piss off.
Plus, it took a lot of detective work to connect Nichols with the death. First, Kimble was after the one-armed man, then the trail led to the dead doctor (Lentz?), and then he had to go to the lab and get a lot more help to figure out Nichols was involved. It's reasonable to conclude Nichols would not have thought Kimble would be able to dig so deeply.
