The password for infinite lives (CLYDE) is a reference to Clyde the Orangutan from Every Which Way but Loose, the password for level two is MISTY (a reference to Play Misty for Me), both non-Dirty Harry films starring Clint Eastwood, and the password for level three is BIRD (a reference to Bird, the 1988 Charlie Parker biopic Eastwood directed without any relation to Dirty Harry).
