I kind of did the same thing, it was all bouncing through the silliness and surprising awesomeness of Agent 13 being that awesome (considering this was 1968), and then Tony showed up and I was all, "Oh, hi, Tony so glad you're... wait what? STEVE!"

Though to be fair, Tony wouldn't get in a fifth of the trouble he does in ToS if he actually told his dearest friends about his secret identity. The man digs his own holes, consistently -pets poor broken Tony-
