* CoverIdentityAnomaly: Applies, but dodged every time. Alejandro introduces himself to Montero using a formal greeting of the Spanish court that hasn't been used for years, but Alejandro deflects suspicion by claiming that his father was strict in matters of etiquette. Similarly, Montero notes after Alejandro's compliments and particularly with mention of the Queen's recommendation that he thought he was out of favor in the court, to which Alejandro covers by claiming this is only true in certain circles but the Queen knows the truth.

There's also the fact that it's been twenty years since they saw each other, Montero believes him to be dead, and he has shaved and changed his hairstyle.
