Line 86:
* [[Themed Aliases]]: Remington does this in the pilot; all of his fake passports bear the name of a [[Humphrey Bogart]] character.
* [[Town with a Dark Secret]]: Used this trope in "Small Town Steele," which cited the 1955 movie ''Bad Day at Black Rock''.
* [[Undead Tax Exemption]]: The eponymous character is actually a made up persona taken over by a con man. He had no problems the first season, but the second season starts out with a visit from the IRS, curious about the lack of about twenty odd years of income tax filings.▼
* [[Unique Pilot Title Sequence]]: The first episode has Laura tell a slightly different story to since at this point she hasn't met the man who would take over Remington Steele's persona.▼
* [[The Un-Reveal]]: Steele asks his father what his real name is... only to find that his father has just died.
** Given the circumstances surrounding Steele's birth as told to him by his father, his mother died in labour and he was in jail at the time, it's quite possible that Steele doesn't actually have a name, or that his name is Harry because that's what his dad called him.

* [[Would Hit a Girl]]: Steele, amazingly, at least once. Although he did say "Forgive me" before doing so.
