By setting "Google Images" as the only metadata source, and clicking "Download only covers", I've noticed the same thing happen with various titles: first try, nothing. second time, nothing. third time, cover is found and downloaded! Sometimes just a second attempt is enough. At first I thought this could be something related to Calibre user agents randomising, however from looking at the logs, I'd guess that's something else: Spoiler:
Same user agent, one attempt failed, the other succeeded. Two different titles in the above logs. And below are two attempts with different UAs and same title: Spoiler:

Intermittent issues where results are not found, are most likely because google is A/B testing a new website layout. Once it stabilizes the plugin can be updated.
