* Isobel George, Roy's boss at the CIA, keeps saying that they've trained the love and empathy out of all of their agents... this is profoundly false when considering Roy. Although he is not averse to twisting the truth, he has a long history of making sure his friends and family are safe - even his faked death has him saving two of his fellow soldiers in Kuwait, he watches over his parents, and not only does he protect Simon and June, he makes sure Rodney is safe as well. (Crosses over into FridgeBrilliance when one realises that Roy Miller is a send-up of [[Franchise/MissionImpossibleFilmSeries Ethan Hunt]], who has the same FatalFlaw.)

* Roy not just protecting, but actually taking care of Simon; being patient with his idiosyncrasies, keeping him calm and engaged. Roy even gives him a little Hall & Oates badge when he notices Simon likes their songs. (On the other hand, it's probably got a tracker in it...)

* Roy monitoring his folks' place round the clock to make sure they're safe. Also, Roy's parents keep winning the lottery and getting free stuff; looks like Roy is providing for them even though he can't let them know he's still alive.
** And at the end, the {{Stinger}} shows they've "won" plane tickets to Cape Horn - that is, where June and Roy are now... They're both in for the best surprise of their life - their son is alive and happy!
* At the climax, Roy breaking cover and striding over to kiss a truth-serum-addled June and assure her that he's happy she came to Seville to find him.
