** It's possible she might have assumed, or at least hoped, that Max would take down the people who had figured him out, which would buy them more time at least. His confirmation meant someone got away.

* One time, Max accidentally takes a truth pill and is rude to the Chief. At first, this makes it seem like the jovial relationship he has with the chief is all a lie... until you realize that truth serums in fiction don't necessarily make you tell the actual truth so much as they make you not mince words and at that moment, Max was angry with the Chief for the truth pill apparently not working.

* When you think about it, Max is an ''amazing'' agent despite being generally incompetent, at least in terms of taking on KAOS. Proof: in Siegfried's debut episode, it is all but stated that Max was able to capture ''every single KAOS agent by himself'' - starting with their number-one man, who had backup! No wonder KAOS hates him so much.

* Max makes a one-off comment at one point that people keep asking to use his ShoePhone for personal calls. This was back in the 60s, when mobile phones weren't a thing; if people got past the weirdness of someone having a phone inside a shoe, it would seem like something very convenient as an alternative to a pay phone. Assuming Max frequents the same few establishments, word might get around, and he'd become "that guy with a convenient cordless phone in his shoe".
* Related to the above, [[UnusuallyUninterestingSight no civilians ever question Max speaking into his shoe]], or any other sort of odd secret agent stuff he does (until guns start getting fired). If you're walking down the street and you see someone talking into his shoe, what do you do? You keep walking, possibly wondering if that guy's mentally unwell. (Well, unless you're familiar with the ShoePhone trope and slightly paranoid.)

* The movie has a huge amount of AdaptationPersonalityChange, especially regarding Max. In the series, Max is a bumbling goofball, while in the movie, he's smart but inexperienced - but the biggest change is in his dialogue: his CloudCuckooLander tendencies are heavily toned down in favor of a dry wit and DeadpanSnarker attitude, to the point where even the way he uses his catchphrases (such as "Would you believe..." or "Missed me by that much") comes off as far less goofy and more deliberate. Doesn't seem like as big a change when you realize that by today's standards, a lot of Max's ComicallyMissingThePoint and otherwise idiotic sayings (and, yes, his catchphrases) from the series can be construed as him being deliberately snarky and witty, [[CasualDangerDialogue even in inappropriate situations]], as this line from the series shows:
--> '''99''': Max, this is bad!
--> '''Max''': Yeah, it is. ''(gestures to water pistol he used as a bluff)'' I'm out of water.
