There is a lot to like about this episode but I faded out a bit for a while (maybe because I'm a little tired). I commented after episode 5 that they hadn't given much of a sense of time passing so the storyline had seemed a bit too soon. In may be because they felt the need to do that storyline that they kept this one for a little later but they could have used a similar mechanism as this episode to make it seem like they had been together for many months, it's really not that hard to do. Unless I missed it, they could have just made a few mentions of the many missions they had done off camera.
This episode (or something like it as this storyline only makes sense after they have established their relationship enough) might have also set the tone early on in the series. If done earlier it could have better set the tone with the whole spy caper just being a background to set their relationship against. With all the artificial restrictions it puts on them as two strangers who willingly accept an arranged marriage, while working together in a high stress job.
Now that the show has set the stage they can pretty much get into what the show will be going forward, if picked up for another season.
