The storyline was pretty romantic to begin with, and made for a lot of the buildup because of the "previous history" they shared as a married couple in previous lives. However, it was the way the chemistry was played out that really anchored this episode in my mind because of the way they looked at each other. (During a dinner scene, they were sitting close to each other and just basically looking into each other's eyes the whole time they talked.)
Of course, there's the slightly cliched "rescue" portion when Thompson's caught in a chemical fire and Farrell goes to save her.
But it was Thompson, in my opinion, that really nailed the kissing scene, because she was so into it. And she was kissing Farrell's fingers before the kiss itself, which was just so hot. Farrell seemed to be more nonchalant about the whole thing, but Thompson really brought out the years of pent-up feelings after Farrell's previous host died.
And when they had to be separated at the end the story left their feelings intact, and separated because of politics and not because they stopped loving each other. Very, very hot.
