Round Table - Super Spy Solo

Last night I watched the movie version of the Alexander the Greater Affair, One Spy Too Many.  Now, I don't know why they chose that title because I don't see any correlation between it and the story.  I have to surmise that they just three darts at a board full of titles for the movies and wherever it hit was what they went with.  None of them make much sense except for the first one.
Anyway, Napoleon has some stellar moments of keen deduction, not the least of which is in the temple where he answers Tracy's questions so brilliantly that Illya replies "I'm glad I didn't have to ask that question".  In other words, he did not deduce with the same brilliance as his partner.
How often do we see this side of Solo?  He's a strategist, a charmer and obviously very good at his job.  But in this episode he's really brilliant at figuring things out; very obtuse details that range from intent to mineral content in the stone numbers left by the nefarious Alexander.
So, any fic out there detailing Mr. Solo's brilliance, or other episodes that center on that aspect of his skills?
