This is a good point - not much Peter time is generally not such a good thing.
On the other hand, I did enjoy seeing Mozzie & Jones working "together," and also Neal & Diana, and I think for me, personally, it was the Elizabeth sub-plot that was my real problem with the episode. I absolutely believe that Neal would lie because Elizabeth told him to. In concept, I can see this as a way to generate friction between Peter and Neal without having Neal (or Peter) look like the bad guy. And given the right circumstances, I could believe that Elizabeth would do what she did. But, as I mentioned in my earlier comment, I just didn't buy the execution (not to mention the part about how after the fact the scenario of using the lie to protect Peter doesn't work anymore).
On the third hand (I am a geneticist after all), having Peter hurt to decrease Tim's screen time gave us even more casual Peter than usual. And casual!Peter is HOT. :-)
