Necromancing the Stone"


TEASER

INT. Nate's Loft - Night

We see Nate sleeping under satin sheets, clothes strewn about and he's with Paige. But unlike Nate, Paige is wide-awake. She looks at him, sees a tattoo on his shoulder and starts tracing it with her finger. She doesn't notice his eyes open, watching her for a moment. Nate: "Wondering what that is…?" Paige, startled, pulls her finger back, "Sorry, I didn't mean to wake you, Nate." Nate: "No worries. I'm just glad you're still here." Paige: "You thought I wouldn't be?" Nate: "I never know. You're a woman of mystery, Paige." Paige: "I'M a mystery? Look around - who lives here?" Nate: "Believe me, if I would have known how long it was gonna take to remodel my house, I would have moved more stuff in." He pauses, shifting closer to her, 'I'll tell you my secrets if you tell me yours." She smiles, wishing she could, then she starts to trace his tattoo again with, "The Celtic Wheel of Being…the Four Elements, all in balance with each other, mystically connected." Nate: "How do you know that? Nobody knows that." Paige: "Well, I read a lot, you know…especially about the magical arts. It's sort of a hobby of mine." She takes a second, then asks, "Are you interested…in the magical arts, I mean?" Nate admits he just got the tattoo because he thought it looked cool. He looks at her, sees her disappointment and tells her he was kidding. Then, the ultimate, "What is it you're not telling me?" Paige wants to tell him, and just as it looks like she might, her cell rings. She checks the caller ID and tells Nate it's her sister. Nate tells her to let it go to voice mail and she tells him she can't and then answers it.

INT. Manor - Attic - Night

Piper's on the phone and pacing by the BoS, a vat of steaming potion is on a nearby table, "I figured out how to vanquish the leader of the Creeper Demons." Paige tells her it's not a good time. Piper: "Sorry, potion's already been made. Gotta strike while the iron's hot." Paige: "No can do…" Piper, ignoring her, "We wipe him out, we wipe out his whole clan, then there'll be no more demons out there who could threaten the Wiccaning." Paige: "Do you hear me? Timing, BAD." Piper: "Okay, fine. If you don't want your nephew to have the blessings of the Halliwell Matriarchs, and if you don't mind him falling prey to evil…" Paige: "Alright, alright, you win…" Nate asks her if there's problems as she hangs up. Paige: "Always." She gets up and puts on his shirt. Nate asks if she's leaving. Paige: "Just to the bathroom. Don't worry. I'll be right back." She goes in and shuts the door. Nate notices the curious white glow seep through from under the door.

INT. Manor - Attic - Night

Piper's hitting redial as Paige orbs in, still buttoning the shirt. Paige, all business, "Let's get this over with." Piper, seeing Nate's shirt, realizing, "Oops, sorry." Paige: "Me, too. What have you got?" Piper hands Paige a piece of paper. Piper: "Just summon. I'll vanquish." Paige hurriedly reads the spell and a shadow appears then forms into a menacing-looking Creeper Demon. He turns to attack, forming a fireball in his hand, but before he can do much of anything else, Piper hurls the potion at the Creeper and he explodes. Piper: "Creepers, check." Paige: "We done here?" Piper: "Sleaze away." With that, Paige orbs out.

INT. Nate's Loft - Night

Nate's knocking on the bathroom door, "Paige, are you okay in there? Paige??" Just as he reaches for the knob, the door swings open, "Sorry, didn't hear you." Nate, knowing that's not possible, "You didn't hear me? Paige, what is going…wait, I think I just figured out what you've been hiding from me." Paige, nervous, thinking she's busted, "You have?" Nate: "Yeah…" he leans closer, takes a whiff, and nods, "You smoke."

ACT I

INT. Manor - Piper's Bedroom/Nursery - Sunny Day

Phoebe sits at the dresser mirror holding up two different lipsticks to an unknown someone behind her, "Woodmist is tasteful, but Rouge Sensation definitely has that extra va-va-voom." She turns, and asks, "You're a guy, what do you think Jason'll like?" We see who it is. Little Wyatt is on the bed, propped up by pillows. He coos and seems to point to one of them. Phoebe: "Rouge Sensation it is." Then she turns to talk to him, "Grams is going to eat you up when she meets you, yes she is! Just no spitting up, and watch those toxic poops - Grams hasn't been around a baby since she was alive." Paige walks in holding a pair of baby booties, "Piper's freaking out and if Wyatt's not in his Sunday best in five minutes…" Phoebe: "I know, I know. I just got distracted." Phoebe takes Wyatt to the bed and gets him dressed. Paige: "What's with the come hither makeup?" Phoebe: "Jason called from the corporate jet, I'm meeting him at the airport. If I hurry." Paige: "He's back from Hong Kong?" Phoebe: "Just for the day, but I'm gonna make it a day he won't forget." Paige: "An international booty call. Impressive." Phoebe covers Wyatt's ears, "Paige, there's a minor in the room." Paige: "Sorry. Well, I'm glad he's on his way. Piper and I were getting sick of watching you walk around all mopey." Phoebe: "I was not mopey." Paige: "You were definitely mopey." Phoebe: "Alright, maybe a little. I just missed him, more than I thought I would, okay?" She looks, then asks, "Where's the matching cap?" Paige says she'll get it and she looks through Wyatt's dresser, "Hey, by the way, I'm curious, did anybody ever try that truth spell in the Book?" Phoebe: "Yeah…and don't." Paige: "Don't what?" Phoebe: "Don't use it, especially not on Nate." Paige: "What makes you think I was going to?" Knowing she's beat, "Okay, so what if I was? How am I supposed to find out whether or not he can handle the big bad secret?" Phoebe: "Isn't it a little early in the relationship to worry about that?" Paige: "No, it's not. He's the first guy I've really liked since Glen - and the only one who might actually be open to my being a witch." Phoebe: "How do you know?" Paige: "He's got this cool, mystical Celtic tattoo." Phoebe: "Paige, half of San Francisco's got a mystical Celtic tattoo." Paige: "It's just the same old problem - how am I supposed to get close to a guy when I'm hiding so much of myself?" Phoebe finishes dressing Wyatt and holds him up, "You could be on the cover of G.Q., you're so handsome." Paige, not giving up, "Besides, the spell only lasts 24 hours. Then he'll forget everything. What harm could it do?" Phoebe: "A lot. You don't always know what you'll get when you cast it." Paige: "I know what I'll get if I don't. Dumped." Piper calls from downstairs telling her sisters to hurry up.

INT. Manor - Sitting Room - Day

Piper's nervous as she places 5 candles on the floor in a circle, Leo following, lighting them. "The green outfit's cute, right? Or maybe you should tell them to put him in the one with the little clouds on it?" Leo: "Wyatt's her great-grandson, she won't care what he's wearing." Piper: "She's not just coming as a great-grandma. She's coming in an official capacity, as our family's Matriarch." Leo: "Not if you don't summon her already." Piper makes a face at him and starts the chant, "Hear these words, hear my cry. Spirit from the other side. Come to me, I summon Thee, cross now the great divide." The lights appear and soon enough, Grams is there. She takes a beat to orient herself, then "Well, it's about time, Piper, what took you so long?" Piper: "Hello to you, too, Grams." Grams: "Sorry…I'm just so excited. How are you, my dear?" Piper: "Excited, too." Leo: "Hi Grams." Grams: "Leo." Then back to Piper, "Well, where's the little one?" Piper, gesturing, "Right behind you." She turns to see Paige and Phoebe cradling Wyatt heading down. Grams looks on in anticipation as Phoebe hands Wyatt to Piper, who then presents him to Grams. "Grams, meet the next generation of Halliwell's. Baby Wyatt." Grams: "Wyatt? That's a silly name for a girl, isn't it?" Phoebe, laughing, "It's not a girl, Grams, it's a boy." Grams: "What??" Paige: "Wait, you didn't know?" Grams: "No, how could I? I mean, I just assumed..." She looks at him a moment, then adds, "What went wrong?" Leo: "Wrong?" Grams: "I don't mean wrong, wrong, I mean…" She smiles thinly as she hands the baby to Leo, "It's just, we've always had girls." Piper: "And now we've got a boy." Grams: "Right, well, we've got work to do before I can perform the Wiccaning." Piper: "Work, what work?" Grams: "Are you kidding? I'm going to be summoning every Matriarch in our family line since the Witch Trials. We have to make sure the Manor is safe." Piper tells her they've already got it covered, "Every demon who could possibly attack their spirits have been taken out. The Rigors, Zombies…" Paige: "Creepers…" Piper: "We're all set." Grams: "What about the Necromancer?" Piper: "Who?" Phoebe: "While you guys discuss this, I'm just gonna pop on over to the airport and pick up Jason, if that's alright…" Grams: "Who's Jason?" Phoebe: "Just a guy…be back soon, don't start the Wiccaning without me." Paige: "Listen, I gotta run, too. I sorta wanna see where I stand with my man." Once both of them are gone, Grams: "They oughta just get a dog - more loyal and they die sooner." Leo: "Excuse me?" Grams: "Oh, don't mind me, you know I never had much luck with me." Leo: "But you were married four times." Grams: "Exactly." Piper: "Wait, can we get back to this Necromancer?" Grams: "We should and fast. Last time he attacked was during your mother's Wiccaning - can't very well risk that happening again! Chop, chop!" Grams whisks Piper up the stairs before she can protest, leaving Leo miffed and looking down at his son, "Now you know why we don't summon her very often…"

INT. Necromancer's Catacombs - Eternal Night

The Necromancer paces, imposing despite being transparent. He walks through a pillar and stops at a large cobweb. He goes to brush it away but his hand passes through it as Skreek appears in a flash of bright blue light. He's holding a glass jar with a frightened winged fairy inside. The Necromancer asks if he's kidding. Skreek: "Don't judge it by its size, Sir. She's not just any fairy - she's a queen." The Necromancer peers into the jar and says that it hardly seems worth the trouble. Then, he notices the fairy struggling, "You forgot to put holes in the lid." Skreek: "No, actually, I didn't." The fairy dies and we see her spirit rising up and out of the jar. Skreek: "Go for it, Sir." The Necromancer sighs and points a finger at the spirit, paralyzing it with a powerful beam. The spirit struggles but can't. The Necromancer moves closer and breathes in the magical spirit. As he does, he corporealizes, "That won't sustain me for long." Skreek: "Okay, well, maybe I should get you an ogre?" Necromancer: "Or, maybe I should just devour you." Skreek backpedals, "But, Sir, you need me, remember?" Necromancer: "A century ago I didn't need anyone. I was a powerful demon, a ruler, alive!" Skreek: "Until you got vanquished…hey, but give yourself credit, you pulled yourself out of the spirit realm, didn't ya?" They talk a bit more, then he says that he wants to live again, that he wants to be resurrected…adding, "I WILL be resurrected."

INT. Hotel Suite - Day

Phoebe wrapped in a towel, looking out a window. A beat later, Jason, hair just as wet, in a hotel bathrobe, approaches her. He pulls her close and kisses her neck. "Glad to see you don't get jet lag." Jason: "Hey, if leaving means more reunions like this, I'll go away more often." Phoebe spins: "Don't you dare go away again." Jason says he's afraid he doesn't have much of a choice. That he just bought an Asian media conglomerate and he has to go back to set it up. Phoebe asks him how long he'll be gone. "Six months…maybe more." Then he adds, "Don't you want so see what I bought you?" Phoebe, hopeful, but knowing it's not, "Time?" He finds an ornately wrapped present on a nearby table and hands it to her, "Open it." She takes it and unwraps it…only to discover a small book. She looks at him, totally confused. Jason: "It's a dictionary. Chinese/American." Phoebe; "Oh. Great." Jason: "You don't like it.' Phoebe: "Well, listen, coming off of 'I won't see you again for six months', I guess I was sorta hoping for jewelry." Jason: "Yeah, but jewelry won't help you get around Hong Kong. The dictionary will." He looks at her, then, "Come back with me, Phoebe." Phoebe: "Come back? To Hong Kong?" Jason tells her that's why he flew out, hoping she'd go back with him, then he tells her the plane leaves first thing in the morning. Phoebe: "Okay, woah, woah, wait a minute - are you serious? Jason, I can't just pick up and leave like that." Jason: "Why not?" Phoebe; "Well…my job for one thing." Jason tells her he'll transfer her. Phoebe: "Yeah, okay, but - what about my sisters? My nephew?" Jason asks if she's planning on living with them forever. Phoebe: "No, but…" He cuts her off, telling her she can fly back whenever she wants, the jet will be at her disposal. Phoebe is shell-shocked. Jason tries to persuade her to come.

INT. Piano Bar - Day

Nate sits at the piano, softly playing a song with one hand while talking to someone on the phone with the other. "How much is it going to cost? Just for a new thermostat, that's ridiculous." He spots Paige entering and stops playing. He tells the caller he has to go and hangs up, thrilled to see Paige. Then he asks what she's doing "all the way out here" and she tells him she wants to talk. She asks if it's a good time and he confirms that it is. He notices her mood, "Paige, honey, what is it? What's the matter?" Paige: "Maybe nothing…but there's only one way to find out." Off his curious look, she starts reciting the spell. Lights flicker around Nate, but quickly disappear. "Woah, what just happened?" Paige takes a deep breath then blurts it all out, "Okay, here goes - Nate I'm a witch. A REAL witch, the kind that vanquishes demons on a regular basis with magical powers with my sisters, do you have a problem with that?" Nate, lost, smiles: "Paige, what are you talking about?" Paige: "I'm talking about this…" With that, she stands then orbs out then orbs back in on top of the bar. "Behind you." Nate: "How…how'd you do that?" Paige: "Like I said, I'm a witch - and I need to know how you feel about that before we go any further in our relationship." It doesn't look good. Nate's still freaked out and he backs away. Paige: "Well, I guess that answers that…" she starts out, but Nate steps towards her. "No, Paige, wait…you gotta give me a minute to react here. I mean, come on, that's not exactly something you see every day." Paige: "Wait, so…does that mean you're okay with this?" Nate: "Are you kidding? I think it's great!" Paige: "You do?" Nate: "Hell, yeah - I've always believed in that stuff. I just can't believe it's actually real!" Paige is relieved, smiling widely, until…Nate: "Wait until I tell my wife." Paige: "Excuse me?" Nate: "Did I just say that…?" Paige: "You're MARRIED? You never told me you were married." Nate: "Yeah, well, I never told you I had any kids, either. What am I saying??"

INT. Manor - Attic - Day

We see a drawing of the Necromancer, surrounded by lost of notes, all hand-written. Piper: "See, I was right - you vanquished that demon sixty years ago." Grams: "The Necromancer is not a demon. He's the GHOST of a demon. And it wasn't a vanquish, I banished him back to the Spirit Realm." Piper: "Then you oughta be more specific in how you word things." Grams: "The point is, he's had about seventy years to find a way out of the Spirit Realm. And that man - that demon - is nothing if not persistent." Piper says she'll take her word for it, since Grams seems to know so much about him, then she reads: "Enjoys Clark Gable pictures; favorite dinner, lamb chops with mint jelly?" Grams: "You never know what'll be useful." Piper: "So what do you suggest, you get cooking and I head to the video store?" Grams: "Don't be so literal. I was trying to show how much he craves life. The sensuousness of it, food, drink, sex…" Piper: "Stop. I'd rather not picture a dead demon doing the dirty." Grams: "He wants to be resurrected." Piper: "But it says he has dominion over the dead. You think that'd be enough." Grams: "Not for him. He only uses his powers over the dead to absorb their spirits, and get a temporary fix of life. He was always searching for magical spirits with enough power to resurrect himself for good." Piper, getting it, "Like the spirits of all the Halliwell matriarchs?" Grams: "That's why he attacked at your mother's Wiccaning. Now do you see why I'm worried?" Piper: "Okay, if he's out, we'll send him packing, back to the Spirit Realm. Nothing's getting in the way of Wyatt's Wiccaning." Grams: "Good. I know just the potion to use on him, too. We'll need dragon's root, eel skin, blood wort and some hydrochloric acid. We want it to hurt." Piper begins gathering the herbs as Grams not-so-subtlety mentions, "You know, I still can't get over the fact that you had…a boy, Piper." Piper: "Fifty/fifty chance." Grams: "Not it our family. 300 years, and not a male in the bunch." Piper: "Guess our family is changing." Grams: "It just begs a few questions, that's all, don't you think? I mean, we've never had a male witch, and men are just so…" Paige: "Evil! That's what they are. Every last one of them." Piper: "I take it Nate wasn't real happy about you being a witch?" Oh, he was happy. In fact, he loved it. Apparently, it's his WIFE who would've had a problem with it." Piper: "He's married?" Paige: "With two kids." Piper: "Aww, honey, I'm so sorry." Grams: "I told you, should've got a dog." Piper: "What'd you do when you found out?" Paige: "Plenty, believe me. I mean, I just hope he gets what's coming to him, that's all. The cheat!" Grams: "Well, there's no wrath like a witch scorned, that's what I say." She spins to the BoS towards Paige, "Care to take it out on him?" Paige looks at the drawing of the Necromancer.

INT. Necromancer's Catacombs - Eternal Night

The Necromancer is lying on top of a crypt, waiting. Suddenly, magical lights appear behind him, "What measly crumbs have you brought me this time?" Grams: "Nothing you'll like." He bolts up, stunned to see Grams with Paige and Piper. "Penny?" Piper, equally surprised, "PENNY??" Grams quickly telekinetically slams him against a wall then turns to Paige, "Well, what're you waiting for? Throw the damn potion!" Before the Necromancer can recover, Paige tosses the vial, which explodes at his feet, trapping him in a whirlwind of fire. He screams in agony as he's sucked down, back into the Spirit Realm. Grams, pleased with herself, "Yep, I've still got it." Then, looking at the girls, puts on an innocent, "What?"

ACT II

INT. Manor - Piper's Bedroom - Day

Phoebe's shocked, "Wait, he called her by her name??" Piper's laying out another outfit for Wyatt, "Penny, yeah. Kinda weird, huh?" Paige: "Yeah, he almost acted like he liked her. The creep." Phoebe: "Twim-gee?" Her sisters just look at her, "Oh, sorry, that's Chinese for 'excuse me'?" Piper: "Fascinating." Phoebe: "So, did you vanquish him at least?" Paige: "No, he's dead, he can't be vanquished. But we did send his demonic male ass back to the Spirit Realm." Piper: "Try avoiding the Grams man-bashing bandwagon, would ya?" Paige: "Grams is a wise woman." Piper: "I'll be sure to let Wyatt know." Paige: "I don't mean him. We'll teach him how not to be a slimeball." Piper: "Right now, let's just worry about blessing him in goodness and light. Because we don't have much time before the Wiccaning." She holds up two pairs of baby shoes, "Patent leather or white?" Phoebe, looking at the Book, "Oh, uh - Bok." Then she realizes and translates, "That's white." Paige: "Alright, Pheebs, what's with the Chinese?" Phoebe holds up the dictionary, "Jason brought me back a souvenir from his business trip." Paige: "Business trip, hah! Likely story." Phoebe: "What's the supposed to mean?" Paige: "I'm just saying, he could be leading a double life. He could have a mistress. Or, he could be gay." Phoebe: "Or he could be the perfect guy for me." Paige: "Don't be so sure. Men are full of surprises." Phoebe: "Actually, he did have a surprise." Before she can explain, Leo, holding Wyatt, enters while talking on the cordless. Leo: "Paige. Darryl's on the phone and he's pretty pissed. Something about your boyfriend?" Paige: "EX-boyfriend, thank you." She snatches the phone and heads out. Piper asks Leo what he's doing with Wyatt because she thought Grams was supposed to be spending time with him. Leo: "She didn't want to." Piper: "Oh, that's ridiculous." Leo: "Really? Then, why won't she touch him, or feed him, or change him?" Piper: "She's probably resting up for the ceremony. She promised she'd do it as soon as we got rid of the Necromancer." Leo: "It's not about the Necromancer, Piper, and you know it. She doesn't like the fact that Wyatt's a boy, and she's made no bones about it."

INT. Necromancer's Catacombs - Eternal Night

We see Skreek arranging decayed bones into the shape of a pentagram on the ground. He takes some ask from an urn and sprinkles it inside the pentagram and chants. The wind blows and a whirlwind of dust and ash appear, quickly forming in the transparent Necromancer. "Am I really back?" Skreek: "Yes - and I summoned you back in record time, too." Necromancer: "Bet Penny didn't count on that…she can't fool me, she's a spirit, too. I can tell." Skreek: "Uh, who's Penny…?" Necromancer: "Penny Halliwell - the witch who stole my heart. You should have seen her. The glint in her eye, the way she held out her hand and sent me hurdling into the wall." Skreek turns and sees that the stone wall is actually cracked, "Ouch." Necromancer: "Didn't hurt nearly as much as that potion did, though. I could tell she made it herself, the flames were excruciating! She was furious at me. Which can only mean one thing - she still feels the passion, the heat." Skreek: "You sure that wasn't the fire?" Necromancer: "If only I knew what she was doing back here. Why leave a cozy eternity 'up there'?" Skreek: "It might have something to do with the new baby." Necromancer: "Baby, what baby?" Skreek: "It's the talk of the Underworld - one of the Charmed Ones had a kid. A powerful one, too, one we're not supposed to mess with." Necromancer: "That's it - she's here for the Wiccaning! I'll need you to get me a troll, or better yet, an elf. I'll need all of my energy if I'm going to take Penny on." Skreek sighs and slinks out.

INT. Manor - Sitting Room - Day

First we see the baby blanket in the bassinet, then Grams standing over it as she wistfully touches the Triquetra. Piper walks in behind her, "Grams…" Grams, startled, "Oh, Piper, you scared me." Piper: "Scaring a ghost, go figure…Grams, I think we need to talk." Grams: "About?" Piper: "I think you know what about. Leo thinks you don't want to be around Wyatt and, frankly, I'm beginning to wonder myself." Grams: "This is all my fault. Maybe if I had lived longer, been around more, things would have worked out the way they were supposed to." Piper: "What are you talking about? What didn't work out?" Grams: "This…Wyatt." Piper: "What, you mean because he's not a girl?" Grams: "Piper, you know as ell as I do the Charmed Line is supposed to be led by women, not men." Piper: "Who says?" Grams: "Destiny says; tradition says. Tell me you didn't expect to have a little girl, hoped to have a little girl, just like you foresaw?" Piper: "Yeah, sure, but so what?" Grams: "So what is something went wrong, terribly wrong - this is not the baby you were meant to have!" Piper: "Grams!" Grams: "You saw it yourself when you went to the future." Piper: "That was also a future where Prue was still alive, and where witches were being burned at the stake! Things change." Grams: "Not this! I'm just…worried for the family, that's all. We don't know what to expect." Piper: "That's why you need to perform the Wiccaning. Because for all the times we went evil, it was that blessing from out ancestors that helped us find our way back to good. Wyatt needs that, too." Grams: "I'm sorry, Piper. I…can't."

INT. Jail Cell - Day

Nate, face pressed against the bars, furious, "I'll sue you for false imprisonment! I'll tell the world about you, you witch!" Paige and Darryl are there, standing next in the outer corridor. Paige: "A little tip? Spells can do a lot more than make you tell the truth, you snake. Know what I'm talking about there, Nate, huh? HUH??" Morris yanks her to the side and tries to reason with her, "Are you out of your mind? You can't just orb him into jail and think that's gonna fly, cause it's not!" Paige: "Why not? He deserves it - do you know what he did?" Darryl: "I don't care what he did! Get him outta here, now." Nate: "Better listen to the donut hog, Paige, if you know what's good for you." Darryl: "Excuse me?" Nate, realizing what he said, shoves a pillow over his mouth so he won't say anything else. Paige: "Men." Darryl: "Paige, do you realize how much trouble I can get into here? The man's got constitutional rights, you know." Paige: "Constitution, shmonstitution." Darryl: "He's a jerk, fine. But cheating is immoral, not illegal." Paige: "Look, I won't deny that I'm pissed. But this isn't personal revenge. I cast a truth spell on him." Darryl: "Oh no…" Paige: "Just a little one. And boy am I happy I did, too. Finally let me see what a two-timing jackass he is." Darryl tells her it's not his problem. Paige tells him it is because he's going to tell everyone he knows about her…and their police officer friend who helps them out in times of need. Darryl: "So what? I'm just supposed to keep him here indefinitely?" Paige tells him about the time limit on the spell, then can't resist adding, "Anybody bigger you could stick in there with him in the meantime? Someone named Bubba, maybe?" Darryl: "What am I supposed to tell the other cops if they hear him?" Paige: "Tell them he's crazy." With that, she exits, leaving Darryl beyond frustrated.

INT. Manor - Sitting Room - Day

Piper's livid, "This isn't about him, or our legacy, this is about you!" Grams: "Piper, you don't understand." Piper: "That you can't perform a blessing on my son? You're damn right I don't!" Grams: "You see him as an innocent little boy. But he won't be that way, not for long." Piper: "Is that why you won't even hold him? Because someday, he'll be a man?" Grams: "Men can't be trusted with magic. They can't handle it. They're too weak. Evil eventually wins out." Piper: "That's ridiculous, what about Leo?" Grams: "Leo's an angel, he doesn't count." Phoebe: "What's going on?" Piper: "Grams hates her grandson, that's what's going on." Grams: "That's not true!" Piper: "Oh, right, sorry, you just hate MEN, is that it?" Grams: "No, I don't trust men, there's a difference. There's a reason why they don't last long in this family - because they're always trying to take advantage of what we have." Phoebe: "That's not true." Grams: "Isn't it? Look at what Cole put you through. Or what your father did to your mother." Phoebe: "So what? We're just supposed to give up trying to find love because we might get burned?" Grams: "No, you WILL get burned, that's part of our legacy, too, unfortunately." Piper: "You know what? Forget it. You couldn't bless Wyatt with goodness, because you're all wrapped up in hatred and bitterness. And since his father IS an angel, we'll take out chances without the Wiccaning!" Before anyone can respond, Skreek appears in a flash of light and immediately attacks. Piper's so distracted that he's able to blast her with a light dart, sending her flying. He spins on Phoebe and fires another dart, but she dives over the couch just in time. Grams: "Leave them alone!" Grams starts to gesture to TK Skreek, but she's suddenly snapped into the living room.

INT. Manor - Living Room - Day (continuous)

As Grams is pulled over to the Necromancer her back to him. He wraps his arms around her, "Surprise!" Before she can react, they vanish. Piper sees Grams disappear with the Necromancer, "Grams!" Phoebe: "Piper!" Piper turns as Skreek starts to hurl another dart, but she gestures and blows him up before he can fire. As the dust settles, Phoebe runs to her sister, "You okay?" Piper: "Yeah…but I don't think Grams is."

Leo and the girls are pacing, Phoebe's holding her nephew. Piper: "Let's face it, Grams wouldn't even be in this position if she hadn't sent us after him in the first place!" Phoebe: "Not helpful. We need to summon her back here, fast." Leo: "You can't - the Necromancer will follow, and if you don't have any way of stopping him…" Piper: "What? He can't hurt us, we're not dead." Paige: "Not yet, maybe. Doesn't he feed off of the spirits of magical creatures?" Phoebe: "You mean, like Grams." Paige: "I don't understand, how'd he get a clean shot at her anyway? Where were you guys?" Phoebe: "Fighting with her." Paige: "Fighting? What about?" Piper: "Not the time - let's just focus on finding a way to save her." Phoebe: "Fine, but I don't know how. It's not like we can even vanquish the Necromancer, he's a ghost." Paige: "Doesn't mean he can't still feel pain. Maybe if I orbed his testicles into…" Piper: "Paige! There will be no talk of testicle orbing! Not around the baby!" Leo: "And not around his daddy, either." Paige: "Just trying to help." Leo, feeling a bit gender-challenged, protectively exits with Wyatt and Phoebe crosses over to the Book. Phoebe: "There's gotta be a way, he's gotta have a weakness in here somewhere." Piper: "Does Clark Gable and mint jelly count? I'm not making it up, that's what Grams wrote about him." Reading, it suddenly dawns on Phoebe, "Oh my God, that's it! That's why she was so obsessed with him - Grams was the Necromancer's…LOVER!" Paige: "What? Eww." Piper: "No, I think she's right. It'd sure explain a lot." Phoebe: "Yeah, like why her last four marriages didn't work out. And why she cursed her wedding ring to try to keep us from getting married." Paige: "Maybe she was just trying to protect us." Phoebe: "What, by becoming lonely and bitter?" Paige: "Better than getting burned…" Piper: "Look, let's put the guy issues aside - after all, we wouldn't be where we are right now if it weren't for Grams and hers." Paige: "Point taken." Phoebe: "At least we have some time. Demons won't kill you once they fall for you - even after death…I should know." Piper: "Hold on…Grams was ALIVE when she first banished him, right?" Phoebe agrees. Piper: "So now she's DEAD." Paige: "Don't sound so excited about it." Phoebe, catching on, "That's not what she means. The ghost vanquishing spell?" Piper: "Got to be dead to use it, right?" Phoebe: "It's worth a shot." Phoebe starts flipping through the Book, looking for the spell.

INT. Necromancer's Catacombs - Eternal Night

Grams is lying on top of a crypt unconscious. The Necromancer is standing over her, gazing at her. He tenderly, almost lovingly, brushes her hair from her face and whispers to her. "Your spirit is strong, Penny. Almost strong enough to sustain us both. Almost…" He steps back and raises his hand, "Awaken." Her eyes fling open and she sits up with a start. "Stay away from me!" Necromancer: "After all this time? Can't, sorry." She starts to gesture to TK him, but he merely holds up a finger, paralyzing her arm in mid-motion. She struggles, but to no avail. "You should know my powers by now, Penny. I covet your spirit, and any spirit I covet, I control." Grams: "You son of a bi…" he holds his finger in front of his lips and Grams' mouth snaps shut against her will. Necromancer: "You realize, of course, the more you fight me, the more I know what means you still love me." Grams: "You're crazy, I HATE you." Necromancer: "Yes, but you only hate me because you once loved me. Afterall, we only hate those who've gotten close to s, don't we?" Grams tells him he used her, he preyed on her affection and tried to get to her family. Necromancer: "And for that I'm truly sorry, I was just…trying to survive. I never intended to fall in love with you, either." Grams: "What do you want Armond?" He takes her hand, and tells her, "The same thing I wanted then - life. With you. Think about it, Penny, there's enough magic in the Halliwell line to resurrect us both, to give us a second chance together. All you have to do is call up the spirits of the Matriarchs. I'll do the rest." Grams: "You'll never make me do that." He tells her he can if he has to and Grams tells him that she'll tell her granddaughters and they'll destroy him. She tries to continue, but before she can, he waves his hand and she recoils, holding her head in pain. He waves his hand again and the pain subsides. "You haven't' changed one bit." Necromancer: "Sure, but isn't that what you loved about me? I was dangerous. Exciting. It's why your heart beats a little faster when I'm near you. Or when I do this." With that, he kisses her. From the expression on her face, it's impossible to resist. The Necromancer pulls back and smiles 'You still love me, Penny. You know it, and I know it. And you're going to help us both to live again. Forever." She looks away, silent, but clearly affected by what just happened.

INT. Manor - Attic - Night

The sisters stand outside a circle of candles. Piper's holding the matches as she goes over the plan, "Okay, remember, as soon as we summon her, we gotta get her to the Book. The Necromancer will be coming right behind her." Paige says she's ready and Piper, "Alright, let's do this." Just then, the doorbell rings. Phoebe moves to the window to see who it is, and Piper asks. Phoebe: "Um…it's Jason." Paige: "Guys just have a knack for coming over at bad times, don't they?" Phoebe: "I owe him an answer." Piper: "An answer to what?" Phoebe: "He asked me to go back to Hong Kong with him." Then, finally, admits the full truth, "To live." Piper and Paige share a concerned look as Phoebe heads out with "I'll be right back."

INT. Manor - Foyer - Night

Leo, baby monitor in hand, is at the door, talking to Jason, "I'm sorry, Jason, but now's not a good time." Jason all but begs him and before Leo can turn him down again, Phoebe approaches and tells Leo she's got it. Jason and Phoebe both start talking at the same time, realize, stop, try again and then keep interrupting each other until…Phoebe: "What time's the plane leave?" Jason: "Ten. In the morning." Phoebe; "I'll be there." Jason: "Yeah?" Phoebe: "Yeah." He hugs her, thrilled.

INT. Manor - Attic - Night

Piper and Paige are leaning out the window, listening. Then we hear the front door close as Jason leaves. Soon enough, we hear Phoebe's footsteps coming up the stairs and they get back into position. Paige: "Well?" Phoebe: "How do you feel about intercontinental orbing?" Piper, not happy, "We'll discuss this later." She thrusts the spell at Phoebe and quickly lights the candles. Phoebe, knowing Piper's mad, exchanges a sheepish look with Paige. Finished, Piper turns to Phoebe, 'Read!" Phoebe starts the spell.

INT. Necromancer's Catacombs - Eternal Night

He's standing close by Penny, staring at her as white magical lights begin to appear around her. "They're calling for you, my love." He caresses her face, "Don't try to fight it. You have no choice but to do as I wish." Grams closes her eyes as she disappears.

INT. Manor - Attic - Night

Grams materializes in the same swirl of lights. Paige: "Welcome back, Grams." Grams: "Girls…" Piper: "No time for apologies. This way, this way." She leads her to the BoS. Phoebe: "This is a spell to vanquish a ghost - but only a ghost can read it. That means you." She looks down at the spell, speaks sadly, with double meaning, lost on the sisters, "You shouldn't have done this." Piper: "Come on Grams, we're not that mad at you." Grams, ashamed, "You will be."

END OF ACT III

ACT IV

INT. Manor - Attic - Night

Right where we left off before, Grams at the BoS, the girls around her. They watch…waiting for the Necromancer's arrival. Grams, suddenly emotional: "Can you ever forgive me?" Piper: "Grams, the Necromancer's going to be here any second." Grams: "I know - it's just, I don't think I…" Grams suddenly braces herself on the pedestal, hand to her head in pain. The girls are confused. Paige asks if she's okay. Grams: "Yes, it's just I…I never meant to hurt you. Or Wyatt." Piper: "Right, look - we need to focus on the demon at hand, okay?" Just then, the wind rises, Phoebe: "Woah, incoming!" As the Necromancer appears in front of them, Paige shouts, "Now Grams!" But she doesn't do anything. Piper turns to her: "Grams, read the spell!!" Necromancer: "Don't bother, she's with me now." He joins her at the Book. To their shock, he takes Grams' hand. Paige: "Well, aren't you gonna try and blow him up or something?" Piper tries, but nothing happens. Piper: "A ghost? I can't blow up a ghost!" Necromancer, "It's time, dear…" Grams, struggling against it, turns the pages in the Book to a different spell. The one To Call the Halliwell Matriarchs and starts reading. Suddenly, the attic begins to swirl with wind. Piper: "Paige - the truth spell. Use it on Grams!" Grams continues her spell and Paige starts the Truth spell. Their spells overlap each other, Paige finally finishing hers. Lights flicker around Grams and she stops. Necromancer: "Penny, finish the spell!" Phoebe: "Grams! Tell him how you really feel about him. The truth!" Grams turns to him: "I love you." Paige, to Piper, "Any other bright ideas?" Grams: "And now I know you didn't just use me, that you really did love me, too." Necromancer: "I still do." Penny reaches out and touches his cheek tenderly, "I know. But, the truth is, our love isn't nearly as powerful as the love I have for my family is." That catches him off guard as Grams flips back to the Ghost Vanquishing Spell and recites it. They hold each other's look. The Necromancer slowly starts to disappear…then violently explodes. Grams: "I'm so sorry. I never realized how much my anger, my bitterness, affected my life - and yours." Then, to Piper, "But I'm most sorry about how I treated my grandson…if ever I wanted a second chance, it would be with him. And you." Piper hugs her, forgiving her. Phoebe and Paige watch and listen as Grams starts talking again. "Don't make the same mistake I did. Don't ever give up on love…"

INT. Jail Cell - Day

Paige, escorted by Darryl, approaches Nate, who's still behind bars, his five o'clock shadow reflects his sour mood. Nate: "You can't keep me in here forever, Paige. Sooner or later, I'm gonna get out, and when I do…" Paige, cutting him off, "You won't remember a thing, which means I've got nothing to worry about. Although…I do have plenty to say before the spell wears off." Darryl, "Say it fast, will you?" Nate: "Look, Paige, I've been doing a lot of thinking…and I realize now that what I did was totally wrong…" a moment, then the truth spell kicks in again, "I really hope you fall for that line." He scowls as he realizes what he just said. Paige: "For what it's worth, I assumed you'd have a problem with magic. Not that you'd be wrong for me on a basic human level." Nate: "I would've told you about Morgan and the kids eventually…" the spell hits him again, "Actually, no I wouldn't have." Paige: "You're not worth hating, Nate, and you're certainly not worth ruining it for everyone else. I won't let you. Whoops, conversation's over." He stares at her for a moment. Then, we see his expression change as a flicker of lights indicates the spell has lifted. Nate: "Paige? What am I doing in jail? What happened?" Paige: "I don't know. Why don't you ask your wife?" Off his shock, Paige turns and walks away. A snickering Darryl unlocks the cell door. Nate asks him what's so funny. Darryl: "You'll never know." He opens the door for Nate, "A little friendly advice? Don't ask any questions, don't try to call Paige, just walk away from this as fast as you can." Nate: "Is that some kind of a threat, Inspector?" Darryl: "Yeah, Nate - actually, it is." Nate's still confused, but not willing to press his luck, he exits.

INT. Manor - Attic - Day

Piper enters with Wyatt in her arms, everyone else if already by the BoS. Grams: "You know, he looks a little like your grandfather. Trust me, that's a good thing. He was a good man…" Phoebe: "Nice to know." Piper: "Shall we?" Grams nods and turns to the Book. She starts the spell and a gust of wind hits them. They look up to see swirls of light descending from the ceiling, separating into ten transparent women, ages 30 to 60. All dressed in a variety of clothes reflective of their respective eras. The girls are blown away, emotional, as they gaze upon their ancestors. Grams speaks to the Matriarchs, "The next generation has been born into our family, our legacy…" She moves to Piper and asks to take Wyatt into her arms, which she does. She takes an emotional moment to hold him before turning to the Matriarchs. "We pledge to be with this child, this beautiful boy, always. Apart, but never separate. Free, but never alone. He is one of us, and because of that, we will bless him with all the goodness that we are." She leans and kisses Wyatt then continues, "Welcome to our family, Wyatt Matthew Halliwell." Then, everyone from the sisters to the Matriarchs, "Blessed be." Grams turns and lovingly gives Wyatt back to Piper, then caresses her granddaughter's face, "take good care of my great-grandson." Piper nods and Grams moves to join the other spirits, becoming transparent herself as she goes. She turns, smiles at her granddaughters, then slowly disappears with the others. Leo and the girls gather around Piper and the baby, holding onto the moment.

EXT. TARMAC - Day

Co-Pilot: "I'm sorry, Mr. Dean, but if we don't take off soon, you're going to miss…" Jason: "I know, I know…" He checks his watch one last time, 'Let's just go." She nods and heads back to the plane as Jason gets his briefcase and starts to follow just as Phoebe rushes in, "Jason!" Jason: "Phoebe! Wow, you're cutting it pretty close, aren't you?" Then, he notices, "Where are your bags?" Phoebe's not quite sure how to break the news. She starts, "Jason…" but he cuts her off, "You're not coming, are you?" Phoebe: "No, I'm not. I want to, more than you know." Jason: "Then why don't you?" Phoebe: "It's hard to explain, but…I just know, for now at least, my place is here. This is where I need to be, maybe not forever…God I hope not forever…but, for now." Jason: "Maybe I should have gotten you jewelry after all?" She smiles and gently kisses him on the lips. "Hurry back." She holds his look and kisses him again. A beat, then Jason, responding to the whine of the jet climbs aboard. Phoebe watches as the jet taxis away with a bittersweet look, then she turns and leaves.

Oh My Goddess Pt. 1

TEASER

INT. P3 - Night

On Phoebe who is dressed to kill, laughing and flirting with a new hot guy. "I'm really glad Elise told me to call you. You're exactly the kind of guy I'm looking for." Evan: "Is that so?" Phoebe: "Oh, it's so so. You're super cute, sweet, smart…and from what Elise says, you're rakin' in the dough." Evan, smiling, "You have quite a way with words." Phoebe: "Hey, when it comes to helping needy kids, I'm shameless. Come on, Evan, tell me you'll be in the charity auction. It'll be fun." Now we see that it's not a date Phoebe's on as she pulls out a clipboard and makes some notes. Evan: "It'll be fun to be auctioned off to the highest bidder like a side of beef at a market?" Phoebe: "It's not like we're asking you to marry the highest bidder. It's just one little date. And one little tax-deductible donation to match your lovely lady's bid." Evan: "Any chance 'Ask Phoebe' will be doing some bidding?" Phoebe hands him the clipboard and a pen with, "Only way to find out is to sign up." He takes the clipboard and signs it as we then see Paige, talking to another hottie, Rick, who's clearly into her. Although, Paige is only half listening to him. Rick: "I graduated Stanford Law in '98." Paige: "Huh? Harvard Law - very impressive. Wanna sign up? It's for charity." Rick: "Um…I said Stanford, not Harvard…" Paige: "Let me ask you something - have you been having any weird dreams lately? You know, like, doomsday, end of the world, fire and brimstone type of dreams?" Rick: "Wait a minute - is this some kind of religious charity?" Paige: "What?" Phoebe, jumping in, "No, no, it's to help kids…" Rick: "Right. Listen, to each his own, but I'm not into all that fire and brimstone stuff." With that, Rick takes off and Phoebe turns to Paige, more than miffed, "You're supposed to be flirting with the bachelors, not frightening them." Paige says she's sorry, "guess I'm a little off." Phoebe: "Hey, my boyfriend just moved to Hong Kong but I still signed up six guys. And you've only got, what - NONE? Come on, Paige, I get that you're in a bad mood, but…" Paige: "It's more than a bad mood. I've barely slept all week and when I do, my dreams are all of…strange music and ancient wars. Very disturbing." Phoebe: "You think it means something?" Paige: "I don't know, maybe it's just hormones…either that, or my subconscious is trying to warn me about something."

INT. Ice Cave - Night

Surrounded by ancient scrolls and magical implements, Mordock is camped out on a rotting wooden platform, studying a scroll. "That's it…that's it!" He grabs the scroll and takes a torch over to a wall and we see two ominous, ancient figures. One male and one female, both frozen in shock, deep within the ice walls. He stares at them, "Alright, let's see how powerful you really are." A foreboding wind causes the torch to flicker before he kneels sown before them and pulls out an athame. He cuts his own hand, dripping his blood onto the ice, then reads an incantation from the scroll. As he chants, the two figures glow then, suddenly, the ice explodes, knocking Mordock backwards. He looks up to see the ice prison has been opened. The two towering Titans stretch their arms, getting their bearings, the first time they've moved in ages. Mordock: "It worked! You're…alive!" Demetrius: "How long…?" Mordock: "How long? Three thousand years, give or take a century." Meta: "What??" Demetrius asks who he is. Mordock: "Me? I'm the demon who's spent decades trying to free you, and now, you're going to return the favor. Don't think it was easy, either. The world's forgotten about you, but I had a vision, a dream. I knew if I could somehow revive you, I could use your power to bring myself glory, to rule the Underworld as I was always meant to!" Demetrius: "Imbecile." Meta: "I love it when you smite so unexpectedly." She kisses Demetrius. Demetrius: "We need to find Cronus, free him as well." Meta: "Do we have to? You know he'll be furious…" Demetrius: "I'm counting on it."

END OF TEASER

ACT I

INT. Manor - Conservatory - Day

Piper, dressed for a heat wave, is lounging by an open window, drinking iced tea and opening bills. Phoebe, similarly dressed, wanders in and opens more windows. Phoebe: "For the love of all that is good and pure, why have we never bothered to get an air conditioner?" Piper, cheerful, "Because we live in San Francisco where the temperature rarely goes above seventy degrees." Phoebe: "Okay, well, not it's above ninety. So how about we buy one today?" Piper: "That might be possible if it weren't for this little expenditure." She hands over the phone bill and Phoebe winces, "Wow, that's a lot of calls to Hong Kong." Piper: "Yes, it is." Phoebe: "Okay, before you start yelling? Please consider that I'm just trying to figure out where Jason and I stand of if there even is a Jason and I anymore and that figuring-out process requires quite a few phone calls." She looks at Piper, "You're gonna throw that glass at me, aren't you?" Piper: "No. Honey, I get it. It's a big phone bill but if you have to choose between love and air conditioning, I say it's a no-brainer." Phoebe: "Okay, who are you and what have you done with my big sister?" Piper asks her why she can't be in a good mood. Phoebe: "In this heat? Mary Poppins isn't in a good mood." Piper: "What can I say? Wyatt's finally sleeping through the night. My hormones are finally back in whack. And Leo and I are finally…well…" Phoebe: "Back in the saddle?" Piper: "So to speak." Phoebe: "Yea for you!" She pauses, then, "God, I miss sex." Piper: "I gotta say, life's feeling pretty damn good." Phoebe: "So where is your lucky husband? And where's my perfect nephew?" Piper tells her they went shopping for Darryl's son's birthday. Phoebe: "Listen to you, you sound like a soccer mom. Dare I say it, your life almost seems normal?" Paige enters, tired and cranky, "If you're talking about this heat wave, there's nothing normal about it." Phoebe: "Morning to you too, sunshine." Paige: "Save the quips and pass the caffeine - I have work to do." Piper: "Are you gonna scry for Mother Nature and have a Wiccan word?" Paige: "Okay, you are way too perky." Phoebe asks if Paige really thinks the weather's demonically related. Paige says her dreams have been fiery all week and she wakes up and it's a hundred degrees, what else is she supposed to think. Piper: "Uh oh, you're not getting some kind of god-complex, are you? Because they have medication for that." Paige says she's not implying that her dreams caused the heat wave, then admits she's not sure what she's saying. Phoebe tells her maybe she just needs to get out of the house. Paige: "Look, I know you think I'm just obsessed and maybe I am but I don't think it's emotional or psychological this time; I'm pretty sure it's…" Piper: "Magical." Paige: "And I don't mean to put a damper on anyone's mood, but I have to hit the books until I can figure it out." She heads back upstairs, and Phoebe asks if they should worry. Piper says she doesn't know, but she does with Paige would stop looking for trouble, because with their luck she'll find it.

EXT. Glacier - Day

Demetrius and Meta are walking amongst the sculpted, glacial walls, seemingly unaffected by the cold. Demetrius stops, "We're close…" Meta, still not happy about it, watches as he turns to a snow-covered wall and holds up his hand to vector in on the exact spot. Finding it, his hand glows causing the snow and ice to melt away to reveal Cronus. Demetrius: "There he is…as wrathful as ever." Meta: "All the more reason to leave him be." Demetrius: "Careful, Meta." Meta tells him again that they don't need Cronus and they have more than enough power without him. Demetrius: "And what if he gets out by himself? He'd come after us both, do worse than entomb us." Meta: "Then so be it. At least we'd have been together again." Demetrius: "We did give him our eternal allegiance, remember?" Meta: "Please, it's been 3,000 years. Who knew eternity would last so long?" Demetrius tells her than it doesn't matter, they'll need his strength to get revenge on their captors. He sees her disappointment, "Don't pout, Meta, you might start a hurricane and alert them." He gives her a kiss then, "Go, find the Whitelighters. It won't be long before I free Cronus, and you know how impatient he can get." Meta reluctantly vanishes in a swirl of wind. Demetrius turns to glare at the frozen Cronus for a beat before, "Don't make me regret this…" Demetrius transforms himself into a dark clod column. The column descends into the sky where it billows out. Lightening bolts rain down from it and thunder echoes out of the cloud.

INT. P3 - Day

Elise is running Phoebe through the set-up for the charity auction. "You'll introduce the bachelors from here and then they'll enter from over there. Phoebe, are you with me?" Phoebe is busy checking out the workmen who are hanging a banner 'Bay Mirror Children's Foundation'. Phoebe: "Yes, I'm all over them. I mean, it. I'm all over it." Elise: "Phoebe. The newspaper only sponsors one charity event a year, and I want it to go off without a hitch." Phoebe promises it will. Elise says that's what she wanted to hear…then tells Phoebe to thank Piper again for donating the club. Phoebe says she just hopes everyone doesn't melt before they get there. "It'd be kinda hard to auction off bachelor soup." Elise: "It is bizarre weather, isn't it? I spoke with Jason this morning and he said it's the same way in Hong Kong." Phoebe: "You spoke with Jason? Did he - Is he - Did he say anything about me?" Elise tells her it's none of her business, but asks if she really wants to "tether yourself to a boyfriend who's halfway across the world?" Phoebe: "Not at all. Truth is, this heat makes me want to tether myself to any guy with two legs, y'know." Then, admits, "It feels really weird to end a good relationship so abruptly." Elise: "He's the one who moved away, Phoebe. So at the risk of advising an advice columnist, I say you bid on a bachelor or two tomorrow. That way, I can live vicariously through you." Phoebe: "Elise, you brazen hussie." They share a laugh but Phoebe is suddenly distracted by Paige orbing in behind Elise. "Oh my God!" Elise: "What? What is it?" Phoebe, covering: "Uh, nothing...just, uh, hold that thought…" She hurries off, leaving Elise confused. As Phoebe approaches Paige, "Hello, out of your mind?" Paige: "As it turns out, I'm not. We've got major problems." Phoebe: "Yeah, we do. You nearly exposed our magic to a room full of people!" Paige: "Yeah, yeah, sorry. Look, I've been studying I-Ching, Tarot cards, Runes, tea leaves - and they're all giving me the same read…" Phoebe: "That you're in desperate need of a good night's sleep?" Paige: "That something big is happening in the supernatural world. If I'm reading it right, the heat and thunder are just the beginning. We could be looking at an earthquake next, or worse." Phoebe: "Okay, well, what do you want us to do? Do you have some kind of plan?" Paige: "Not so much a plan as a location. I scryed for evil and one place kept coming up red hot." She hands Phoebe her coat. "Here, you're gonna need this. We're going on a little trip." Before Phoebe can ask where, Paige orbs out with her.

EXT. Park - Day

A balloon pops, scaring the giggles out of a bunch of first graders at Darryl's son's birthday party. Leo and Piper share a laugh with Darryl as a couple of kids, including Michael Morris, run over. Michael: "Daddy, daddy, show us your trick!" Darryl: "I don't know what you're talking about but - Oh, what's that? I think you got something in your ear." Michael: "I do??" Darryl pulls a quarter from Michael's ear. Leo, teasing, "You call that magic?" Piper smacks him as Sheila, Darryl's wife, calls from the food table, "Who wants hot dogs?" As the kids rush off, Leo puts his arm around Piper and kisses her head. Darryl: "Lemme guess - baby finally slept through the night, huh?" Piper: "How'd you know?" Darryl: "First few months after Mikey was born were rough. No sleep, no time for each other…" Leo: "Sounds familiar." Sheila: "But right about three, four months, things started to even out, got really good again." Darryl: "Of course, then the kid turned two…" Sheila playfully swats him, "Don't scare them…" she turns to Piper and Leo, "Just enjoy the next year or so. It's precious time." Piper: "Thanks. We fully intend to." Then, Leo looks up, "Uh oh. I, um, I have to go…" Piper, looking at Leo, clearly upset, "But we just got here." Leo tells Piper, "I'm sorry, Piper, the Elders --" He looks to Darryl, not sure how much he should say in front of Sheila. Darryl: "It's okay, she knows…" Sheila: Your secret's safe with me. Argue away." Leo turns back to Piper, "Honey, I'm sorry but it sounds urgent." Piper: "Okay, well I just need to express to you that this is making me feel a little bit abandoned." Leo: "I understand and acknowledge your feelings and I want you to know that I love you even though I have to go." Darryl can't stifle his laughter. Sheila: "Darryl, stop." Piper: "What's so funny?" Darryl: "Nothing - it's just…marriage counseling, right?" Sheila: "We did it, too. We recognize the 'tools'." Piper: "I think I hate the tools. I would way rather snipe later than be honest and open about my feelings now." Darryl: "We felt the same way." Sheila: "But you know what? It turns out those tools really help. I mean, Darryl gets paged at the worst possible times, too. It drove me nuts at first." Leo looks up again, "Piper, They're…calling again." Piper: "Fine, go." She pauses, then, "I mean, thank you for considering my feelings. I love you and I'll see you at home later." They kiss, then he kisses Wyatt and exits to find a more suitable spot to orb out from.

INT. Ice Cave - Day

We see Mordock's encampment as Paige and Phoebe, bundled up, hands in pockets but shivering, step past. They study the Titans' former prison. Phoebe: "you realize that the reason no one lives in this part of the world is that they all died from the cold, right?" Paige: "You said you wanted some air conditioning." Phoebe: "I hate you." Paige, spotting it, "Scorch mark. See if you can get a premonition." Phoebe: "Wait, I don't have any gloves." Paige: "Tough it out. Come on, I got us this far." Phoebe: "Fine, okay…" She moves to the mark and pulls her hands out of her pockets and touches the mark. Paige, impatient, "Get anything yet?" Phoebe: "Yeah, frostbite - now, shhh!" She continues to feel around, then she's suddenly jolted into a premonition. She sees the Titans burst from the ice wall. But the vision is blurry and hard to make out. She comes out of it, recoiling her hands as if they're…"Hot, hot, hot!" Paige: "Hot? What are you talking about?" Phoebe: "Not now hot - then. In my vision…" Paige: "Vision, good, okay, what'd you see?" Someone - I mean, two big someones - they came out of that wall over there." Paige: "Who?" Phoebe says she doesn't know and before she can finish her thought, they react to a distant thunder, followed by an earthquake and then…an avalanche of snow comes crashing down on them.

EXT. Glacier - Day

Where the cause of the earthquake, Cronus, fights through the cracking ice wall until he crashes through it, sending fragments flying. As he emerges from the prison, the earthquake subsides. Then we see the cloud column as it descends from the sky and reforms into Demetrius who kneels obediently before him, "My Lord…" Cronus: "They did this to me…to ME!" Demetrius: "They'll be punished." Cronus: "Punished? I'll obliterate them." Demetrius: "Don't worry, I've already sent Meta to get us the powers we'll require for our revenge." Cronus: "Meta…I'm surprised you could tear yourself away from her for so long." Demetrius: "My loyalty is to you, my Lord. It always has been." Cronus: "We shall see…"

INT. Ice Cave - Day

After a tense beat, First Phoebe and then Paige poke their heads out of the snow, sucking in much-needed air. Paige, though, is more excited about what it means than the fact she didn't die. Paige: "An earthquake! Did I call that, or what?" Another beat as Phoebe, still catching her breath, glares at her, "Did I mention I hate you?"

INT. Manor - Attic - Day

Piper enters to find Phoebe and Paige at the BoS, still bundled up. Piper: "Okay, I know it's cooled off a little since this morning, but what are you doing?" Phoebe, teeth chattering, "Defrosting." Paige points to a picture in the Book, 'Is that them?" Phoebe tells her no, Piper asks who's them, Phoebe: "We don't' know yet. How was the birthday party?" Piper: "Oh, just super fun. Leo got called away and I got to use my tools." Phoebe: "Huh?" Paige, still at the Book, "Is that them?" Phoebe: "No. They looked a little more…ancient." Piper: "Would someone please tell me what's going on?" Leo orbs in at that moment and tells them that a Whitelighter has disappeared. Phoebe: "Disappeared? You mean, like from a Darklighter?" Leo: "No. Darklighter's poison is slow and painful. This disappearance was instantaneous - the Elders have no idea what it could be." Paige: "It's all connected - it has to be." Piper: "Connected to what?" Paige: "Whatever escaped from the ice cave we found." Leo: "You were in an ice cave?" Paige: "Try to keep up, people. The heat wave, the earthquake, my dreams. This thing is way bigger than on Whitelighter." Phoebe: "Right, well I think I'd better drop out of that charity benefit." Leo: "And I think we'd better cancel therapy tonight." Piper: "Hold it, wait a minute, no. This is exactly what we're supposed to be learning in therapy - when to put our lives on hold and when not to." Paige: "But, piper, someone may have just killed a Whitelighter." Piper: "We don't know that. For all we know, he could have just…clipped his wings and he's in hiding." Phoebe asks Leo if that's possible. Leo admits it could be. Piper: "Look, we've got to learn to manage our lives, okay? Dr. Berenson says random worry and panic serve absolutely no purpose except to prevent the possibility of happiness." Phoebe says she's all for the possibility of happiness. Piper: "Good, then we should just address the immediate problem at hand and circle the wagons only when we have to." Paige: "Okay, but Leo, maybe you should get the Elders to put a ban on Whitelighters orbing, at least until we figure out what's going on." Piper: "See? Now that's problem-solving." Leo: "Okay. Well, then I guess I'll just meet you at therapy?" Piper: "Don't be late...wait - it is safe for you to orb, right? I mean, Up There?" Leo: "No worrying, remember?" He kisses her and orbs out, mid-kiss.

EXT. Heavens - Eternal Day

An awesome floating edifice where marble pillars rise out of a misty floor and extend up into arches, beyond which clouds roll past in accelerated time. At the end of the corridor of pillars lies a set of golden doors where Elders urgently move past in their hooded robes. Orbs approach from a starfield and form into Leo. He recognizes two Elders sitting on a marble bench and approaches them, "Hey, what's going on? What's with all the activity suddenly? I just left here." Roland (a younger, 30-ish, Elder): "It's not your concern." Cecil (an older, 50-ish, Elder): "Perhaps not yet, but it very well could be…we're not sure, Leo, all we know is something's not quite right." Leo: "Why, has another Whitelighter been…" Cecil: "No, it's…something else." Roland: "Something we're not at liberty to discuss outside of the Council of Elders." Leo probes, "Have anything to do with the heat wave? Or the earthquakes...?"Cecil: "What do you know?" Leo: "Not much, just that Paige has been having these strange dreams lately, dreams that have apparently turned out to be pretty prophetic." Cecil: "You think she foresaw the earthquakes?" Leo says she did. Roland: "But that's not her power…" Leo: "I don't think it's a power as much as…an instinct." Roland: "An instinct? That's what this is based on?" Leo: "Hey, it hasn't let her down so far, has it? I mean, all I'm saying, Sir, is I've learned to rely on her instincts - ALL of their instincts." Cecil: "Yes, and as well you should, Leo. Now, what did you come up here to tell us?" Leo: "Just that the girls think - WE think - you should ground all Whitelighters until we know what's really going on, just to be safe." Cecil: "We agree. We'll initiate the order as soon as you return to them." Cecil pulls Leo aside and talks to him, "In the meantime, keep them working on this, it's important." Leo: "You're worried, aren't you?" Cecil: "You know me better than that. At the end of the day, even we can't change what's meant to be…just remember, no matter what happens, you must always follow YOUR instincts, too."

EXT. Gardens - Night

A witch is lying on the ground, bleeding, near death. A beat later, we see Sarah, a Whitelighter, orb in next to a Greek-like stone statue of a modernly clothed man. Seeing the witch…Sarah: "Krista…" She starts to move towards her but we hear Meta: "About time you came to heal your charge…" Sarah asks who she is and what she wants. Meta only answers the last question with a simple "A Whitelighter." Her eyes suddenly glow and Sarah magically turns to stone. Meta looks at both of the statues, clearly amused by it all.

EXT. Glacier - Night

In a swirl of wind, Meta and the two statues appear. She steps towards a displeased Cronus and bows her head. "It's good to see you again, my Lord." Cronus: "You never were a good liar, Meta." Then he notices the statues, "Where's the third one?" Meta: "Unfortunately, Whitelighters are not as easy to find in this time. Much has changed, magic is no longer practiced so openly." Cronus: "Much may have changed, but you certainly haven't…" As he approaches, a jealous Demetrius looks on, hating this. Cronus: "It's always amazed me that someone as beautiful as you, could so easily turn a mortal to stone." He caresses her cheek, but she can't stand it. She turns her face and Cronus' smile turns cold. He continues, "No, you haven't changed at all, have you…" Demetrius swallows his relief as Cronus turns to him and commands, "She stays behind." Demetrius: "No, she can't! We're stronger as three than as two. And we'll need every ounce of that strength if we are to take revenge on our captors." Cronus: "But if we wait any longer, we risk them finding out we've been awakened. Then even with orbs we won't be able to break in." Demetrius: "Then that's a risk we'll have to take." Cronus: "Says who, you? Are you challenging me, Demetrius?" Meta: "Of course he's not, Cronus, and neither am I. I've brought enough powers for both of you. You can take them and se them to sense a third Whitelighter for me." Cronus: "And if we can't?" Meta: "Then…I guess I'll just have to let you boys handle it." Cronus allows a smile as she runs a seductive finger across his chest. He nods to Demetrius then they position themselves and hold their hands out in front of them - causing orbs to frenetically swirl out of the statues and enter the two Titans' hands. A beat later, the statues disintegrate into dust.

INT. Therapy - Outer Waiting Room - Night

Baby Wyatt, sleeping peacefully in his carrier on the floor beside a restless Piper. She's reading a magazine while rocking him, then throws the magazine on a nearby coffee table and checks her watch. Leo rushes in just in time. She asks him what took him so long. Leo: "I don't know. THEY don't know. But we can talk about it later. Out first priority right now is us." Piper: "Yeah, well, good answer because I gotta tell you, there aren't enough tools in the box to handle getting stood up at the shrink's." Leo barely gets seated before he hears the Elder's calling again. "Uh oh…" Piper: "What? No way - you gotta be kidding me?!" Leo tells her it sounds important. Piper argues that he just got back. Leo: "I know, but…Honey, I acknowledge that this is hard for you…" Piper: "Okay, you know what? Screw that…damnit!" The receptionist looks up. Piper restrains herself as Leo watches, not knowing what to say. Piper, admitting, "I'm scared, Leo…" Leo: "I told you, it's safe orbing Up There." Piper: "Not about that…I'm scared that every time things get good, every time I start to believe we might actually be able to have a normal life together, something happens…" She shakes her head at that, a demon she's never been able to shake. Leo wants to reassure her, but he looks heavenward again, pressured to go, "Piper, I have to…" Piper: "I know, it's not your fault. It's just the way it is." He kisses her on the forehead, and whispers "I love you." Then he gets up and walks out the door.

INT. Manor - Attic - Night

The Book is open to a two-page section on the Titans, complete with a drawing of one standing on a cloud, hurling a lightening bolt. Paige calls for Phoebe and as she comes running in, she asks Paige if she found something. Paige: "Maybe - do Titans ring any bells?" Phoebe: "Titans? You mean like from ancient Greece? You're kidding." Paige: "God-like beings, entombed centuries ago because it was the only way to stop them - you tell me." Phoebe: "Okay, but even if it is them, how'd they get out? And why go after Whitelighters?" Paige: "I don't know. Maybe one was hurt, maybe they need healing powers. All I know is that with the Elders' no orbing edict in place, the only way they're gonna catch another Whitelighter is…" She holds out her arms, offering herself up. Phoebe, realizing, reacts strongly, "No way, forget it, Paige." Paige: "Why not? If it works and I'm right, the Titans will come straight to us." Phoebe: "You say that like it's a good thing." Paige: "It is! Don't you understand? This is why I couldn't sleep, this is what I've been preparing for all year. I've got the potions here that are stronger than what we used on the Source. I'm telling you, we can do this!" Phoebe: "Okay, devil's advocate? Until we know just how powerful they are, it's a bad idea to use you as bait." Paige: "Witches' advocate? There are evil gods on the loose and I think we should eliminate them before Wyatt gets home." Phoebe: "Okay, that's dirty. Why do I feel like you're making me choose between my sister and my nephew?" Paige: "because you're a little over-dramatic?" Phoebe: "Well if that isn't the cat calling the cauldron black." Paige asks, "Can we just do this?" Phoebe: "Fine. I'll use my annoyance with you to fuel my battle against the earthquake-causing gods." Paige: "Good. Ready?" She and Phoebe grab some potions, Paige: "Okay, here goes!" With that, she orbs out then orbs back in. A tense beat, then Meta appears in a swirl of wind. Paige, "NOW!" Paige throws her potion vial at Meta, but it explodes harmlessly, creating only smoke. Meta, her eyes glowing, glares at Paige as Phoebe tries to distract her by throwing her potion vial. Meta spins on Phoebe and flicks her hand, sending Pheebs flying into the potions table, knocking it over. Phoebe lands hard as a mysterious man suddenly appears next to her in a swirl of orbs. Phoebe: "Who are you?" Chris: "Look away, don't look into her eyes!" He shoves her head down and then he starts throwing vial after vial at Meta, staggering her, weakening her until she swirls out. Once the coast is clear, he turns to help Phoebe to her feet, "You alright?" Before she can even try to figure out who he is, she notices something awful behind him. "Oh no…Paige!" Chris turns to see through the dissipating smoke and we see she has been turned to stone.

INT. Manor - Attic - Night

Phoebe's staring up at Statue Paige as Chris steps up behind her, "Don't worry, she's all right. Well, I mean, she's not completely all right, obviously, but she's not dead." Phoebe still staring at the statue, "She's not?" Chris: "No, frankly you see this a lot. Museums, universities, town squares…many of those statues aren't really statues either. They're people like your sister here who've been turned to stone." Phoebe: "Who ARE you?" Chris: "Oh, sorry, name's Chris. Chris Perry. I'm from the future." Before he can say anything else, Piper enters and reacts when she sees Paige: Oh no - please tell me that's just a really good likeness…" Phoebe: "Nope, that's Paige…" Chris: "A Titan turned her to stone." Piper; "A what? Who are you?" Phoebe: "He's Chris, he's from the future." Chris: "But only like twenty years." Piper: "You're from the future…" she looks to Phoebe, "Friend or foe?" Phoebe: "Too soon to tell." Chris: "What do you mean? I saved Paige, didn't I?" Phoebe: "You call this saving?" Chris: "Hey, I'm the one who put my life on the line here. I didn't have to drop what I was doing just to orb in and save her butt…" Piper: "Wait, you orbed in? You're a Whitelighter?" Chris: "Yes. Look, where I come from, history shows that Paige didn't get turned into stone on this day, she died. And with her death, the Power of Three died, too, allowing Titans to rule and create a world you don't want to see, trust me." Then, he tells them he came to alter history, to help them save the future. Phoebe asks who sent him. Chris says he can't answer that and Phoebe asks why. Chris: "Because anything I tell you that I don't have to risks changing the future in ways we don't want." Piper: "We?" Chris: "All I can say is that if I hadn't gotten here when I did, Paige would've been the third Whitelighter victim." Phoebe: "Third? Wait, I thought only one Whitelighter was missing." Chris: "Not anymore." Piper starts calling for Leo and he orbs in apologizing, "Sorry about missing counseling, honey, but…" Piper: "Forget it, we've got bigger problems." Leo, seeing Paige, "What happened?" Piper: "Forget that, too - Leo, how many Whitelighters are missing?" Leo: "What?" Piper: "How many?" Leo: "Two. That's what the Elders called to tell me." Chris: "Believe me now?" Leo: "Who's he?" Before any of them can answer, they hear a crash from downstairs. Phoebe: "What was that?" Chris: "If memory serves, you've got company."

INT. Manor - Stairs/Main Hall - Night

The girls and Leo rush down, ready for anything. But suddenly, they all stop dead in their tracks as a fairy flies up to them. We see the fairy flying back down the steps and she joins a dozen magical beings ranging from leprechauns, nymphs, an elf, dwarves, to a sandman and more. We then see the sisters and Leo, in shock, as a Dwarf approaches them, regarding a broken vase, "Sorry, we'll pay for that. That is, if you can keep the world from ending."

EXT. Glacier - Night

Cronus: "It was a trap, you were tricked!" Meta: "Still, there are other Whitelighters…" Cronus: "No - we've been discovered. Your incompetence has endangered us all…" Meta: "My incompetence? I only went where I was told, my Lord." Demetrius: "It doesn't matter. We can go back, they'll be no match for the three of us." Cronus: "Out of the question. We have to attack our enemies now, while we still can." Demetrius: "I won't leave Meta behind." Cronus: "That's alright. You won't have to." Suddenly, he shoots a stream of fire at her, incinerating her in an agonizing vanquish. Demetrius is shocked, and moves to her, but it's too late. Cronus approaches, unmoved by his pain, "Careful, Demetrius, either you're with me, or you're with her." Demetrius wants to challenge him, but knows it's suicide so he backs down.

INT. Manor - Sitting Room - Night

The sisters and Leo are herding all the magical creatures into the conservatory. Piper: "Come on, let's go. Move it!" Head Dwarf: "Hey, quit manhandlin' us, we're not your pets." Piper: "No, you're just pains - now hurry up, before our neighbors see anything." Phoebe: "Woah - check out the size of that Oracle's ball!" Piper: "Phoebe, focus!" Phoebe: "Sorry…" Piper, still shoving the dwarf: "And stay away from the windows!" She slides the doors closed on the magical group but hears a screech. She looks up to see the fairy, who's caught in the doors, "Oops!" She re-opens the doors to let the fairy fly into the conservatory, then shuts them again. Piper asks what the hell's going on around there as the elf nanny emerges from the dining room, snacking on a chicken leg she got from the fridge, answering them. "If you haven't noticed, the world's a mess out there. Something terrible's happening, everyone sense it." Phoebe; "The Titans?" Leo: "Must be." Piper: "And so what, you came to us, figuring we could stop them?" Elf Nanny: "Well, you are the Charmed Ones, aren't you?" They all hear Wyatt crying upstairs. Elf Nanny: "Do you always leave the little one unattended?" Piper/Phoebe: "No…" Elf Nanny: "Sounds like he just needs to be changed, I'll take care of it." Piper: "Wait, you're not our nanny - we rejected you." Elf Nanny: "No, I rejected YOU. But I suppose I can fill in for a while." She looks upstairs and vanishes. Phoebe: "Did she just hire herself?" Piper tells Leo to go watch her. Leo: "What about the Elders? I should tell them the Titans are back." Phoebe: "Can't Chris do that? He is a Whitelighter, isn't he?" Piper: "Wait, where is he?" Phoebe: "Upstairs…with Paige." Leo: "And the Book." Piper, to Leo, "Alright, you, to the Elf," then to Phoebe, "And, you, keep an eye on our magical houseguests, try to her them into the basement if you can. I'm gonna find out what Future-boy's up to." With that, they all split up and go to their assigned tasks.

INT. Manor - Attic - Night

Chris is flipping through the Book, looking for something as Piper enters. "Alright, what do you think you're doing?" Chris: "What does it look like I'm doing? I'm trying to find a way to save Stone Cold Paige over here." Piper walks over and steps in front of him, protecting the Book. Piper tells him to step away. Chris: "Please, it's not like I haven't looked in it before. Oh, by the way, you should update the Goblins entry. It'll come in handy someday." Piper: "Goblins?" Chris: "Yeah. Trust me, it's gonna get ugly. Look, obviously you don't trust me, I'm not surprised. But I touched the Book, right? And if the Book thinks I'm good, shouldn't you?" Piper: "Who says you haven't found a way around that?" Chris: "Piper, come on, I'm just here to help." Piper, flips back to the Titans page, "If that's true, then why don't you tell me how to vanquish these Titans? That's probably our best hope at freeing Paige." Chris: "Except that you can't vanquish them." Piper: "You mean, not without the Power of Three?" Chris: "Maybe not even with that. The only way the Elders could stop them three thousand years ago was by infusing some mortals with a hell of a lot of power, way more than even you guys have." Piper: "So? Can't They just do that again?" Chris: "Not after what happened last time. When the mortals trapped the Titans, the power went to their heads. They declared themselves gods and forced the world to worship them. The Elders swore they'd never allow it again." Piper: "Wait a second, I'm having a ninth-grade flashback here…Gods and Titans? Are you talking about the Greek gods? Zeus, Athena, Aphrodite? They were mortals?" Chris: "Yeah, mythology left that part out. Not the only inaccuracy, by the way." Piper doesn't have time to react as Phoebe enters followed by the Head Dwarf and the Leprechaun. Piper: "Phoebe, what are you doing? I thought you were supposed to…" Phoebe: "I know, I was but then I thought these guys might be able to help free Paige." She puts her hand on the dwarf's shoulder and continues, "afterall, a Leprechaun's luck helped us before, hasn't it?" Head Dwarf: "HE'S the Leprechaun, I'm one of the Seven Dwarfs - try to keep it straight, will ya?" Phoebe: "Sorry…" Finnigan: "It's gonna take a lot more than just me luck to free this one," he turns to the dwarf, "We're gonna need some pixie dust, too." Head Dwarf: "I'll get a fairy, left my axe downstairs anyway." As he exits Phoebe goes over to Piper and Chris, "So, where are we?" Piper: "Screwed, maybe…I'm still not clear about something - if everything you're saying it right and the Titans are really out, why are they killing Whitelighters?" Chris: "Because they need their orbing power." Piper: "Their orbing power? For what? Why in the world would they want…oh my God…LEO!?" Phoebe, utterly lost, "I'm sorry, what'd I miss? What'd she just figure out?" Chris, knowingly, "Nothing good."

INT. Manor - Piper's Bedroom/Nursery - Night

Wyatt's fussing in the crib. The Elf Nanny waves a hand and a blanket magically wraps around him, settling him. Leo: "How'd you know he was cold?" Elf Nanny: "Babies are what I do." Piper rushes in, out of breath, "Leo, the Titans - they're after the Elders!" Leo: "What?" Piper: "You have to warn them! But don't stay Up There long. Hurry, go!" Panicked, he orbs out as Wyatt starts to cry. Seeing his distress, Piper picks him up and rocks him in her arms, "Shh, shh, it's okay, sweetie. Daddy'll be back soon, don't worry…" But then Piper, sensing something ominous, suddenly gets a bad feeling about things, an instinct.

EXT. Heavens - Eternal Day

At the entrance, orbs form into Leo, who immediately starts to call out to the Elders. But then, he sees something that stops him cold. "What??" He steps forward and we finally see what's wrong. The Elders, lying on scorched benches and pedestals like rag dolls, slaughtered. Their robes have scorch marks on them and their eyes are glazed over. Leo spots Cecil, his mentor's limp body strewn across a bench, white eyes eternally fixed on the heavens. That's when it hits Leo with full force, "Nooo!" He collapses to his knees in agony.

INT. Manor - Attic - Day

Finnigan holds out a gold nugget towards Statue Paige and chants in Irish. The nugget vanishes and turns into a gold mist, which causes Statue Paige to glow. Finnigan: "Now, laddie!" The Head Dwarf steps past Phoebe and swings his pickaxe on the glowing statue, but nothing happens. The glow dissipates as the fairy flutters around the statue. The Head Dwarf turns dejectedly to Phoebe, "Don't know what else to try." Finnigan: "Runnin' out of gold, too, I'm afraid." Phoebe: "Well, there's gotta be a way. If magic did this to her, then magic should be able to reverse it. Just…keep trying." She turns away and drifts over to Chris, who seems to be more interested in checking out the knickknacks in the attic. "What are you doing?" Chris: "Me? Oh, just…looking around. You guys keep this stuff forever, you know that?" Phoebe: "You knew the Titans were after the Elders all along, didn't you? Why didn't you tell us?" Chris: "I told you, there are some things I can't tell you. Some things you need to figure out on your own." Phoebe: "Even at the risk of making things worse?" Chris, sober, "Yes." Phoebe stares at him, not sure if she believes as Piper enters. "Okay, what's going on? Why isn't Leo responding to any of my calls, huh? It's been over five hours." Chris: "I really don't know…" Piper: "I don't believe you." Chris: "Hey, woah, I'm not the bad guy, you're the one who wanted him to go Up There, not me." She folds her arms and stares him down. Off that, he finally admits, "Alright, look, maybe I do know - or, at least, I think I know. But if I'm right, he's gonna need some serious alone time." Piper: "Okay, you know what? I've had it with the cryptic felgercarb - I want you to go Up There and bring him back right now, do you understand me? No more games." He looks at the girls, knows they stand side-by-side and aren't going to back down. "Okay, I'll go. But, if I were you, I'd focus on freeing Paige - because you're gonna need her. Soon." With that, he orbs out, leaving Piper beyond frustrated. "I swear to God, if he comes back without Leo, I'm gonna blow his ass back to the future, orbs and all!" Phoebe: "Okay, then…listen, why don't you go be with Wyatt, let me handle this. I'll call you if anything happens, I promise. Just…try to relax, breathe, that's it, good…bye…" Phoebe escorts her out the door then spins to the magical creatures, "Okay, next sister…"

EXT. Heavens - Eternal Day

Incoming orbs form into Chris, who finds a grief-stricken Leo sitting on a bench across from Cecil's body. "Leo…" The moment Leo sees him, he jumps up and shoves him hard against a pillar, "Why didn't you tell me?? Why did you let this happen?" Chris: "Easy, easy…" Leo: "Why, damnit?!" Chris: "Because this HAD to happen -it had to happen so that you could do what has to be done." Not understanding, Leo lets his grief overtake him again as he lets go of Chris. Leo: "What are you talking about? They're all dead, gone." Chris: "No, not all of them. Some of the Elders have escaped back to Earth, but it won't be long before the Titans hunt them down, too. But YOU can still stop them. You can still defeat the Titans." Leo: "How?" Chris: "I think you know how." Leo, finally realizing what he's saying, shakes his head at the thought, "No…it's too dangerous. The Elders have forbidden it." Chris: "True, but then again the Elders aren't around to stop you, are they? That's right, Leo, this is what it's all about. This is why they had to die, so that YOU could do something they'd never do. To save the future for your family, for your SON." Leo: "This is crazy…" Chris: "Maybe, but it's our only chance. Like it or not, you've been put into this position for a reason, Leo. We both have." Leo: "Says you. How do I know you're not just…manipulating all this to make your own future - the same way you've manipulated everything else?" Chris: "You don't…but, what choice do you really have? There's certainly no future unless you do something." Leo: "I don't know…I mean, even if I believed you, even if I was willing to do it, I couldn't - I'm no Elder." Chris: "Yeah, well you'd better start acting like one."

INT. Manor - Attic - Day

On Statue Paige, as the fairy spirals upward around her, sprinkling fairy dust as she goes. Phoebe's at the BoS, gesturing to Finnigan, who's holding out another golden nugget. Phoebe: "Now!" Finnigan starts the chant again. The nugget vanishes and turns into the familiar gold mist, adding to the golden glow of Statue Paige. As it glows and glitters, Phoebe adds a little Wiccan magic to it, tossing a potion vial on the floor. It poofs and Phoebe tells the Head Dwarf, "Hit it!" He rears back and mightily swings his axe against the statue. In a swirl of magic, the statue morphs back into Paige. Phoebe: "We did it!" She rushes to her freed sister, "Paige, oh my God, are you alright?" Paige: "Yeah, I think so…what happened? Where's the Titan?" Then she notices the magical creatures, "What are they doing here?" Phoebe: "Long story…I'll catch you up on the way." Paige: "On the way where?" But they're already out the door before Phoebe can answer. Head Dwarf: "You're welcome." Finnigan: "Luck of the Irish, works every time." The three walk/fly away and head back downstairs themselves.

INT. Manor - Main Hall/Living Room - Day

Piper is a wreck, staring blankly out the window. Phoebe, finding her, "There you are…" Paige: "Wait, I get the whole epic Titan thing, but how does this Chris guy fit in again?" Phoebe tells her they're still trying to figure that out. As she gets closer to Piper: "Hey, look who's no longer stoned." Piper: "Welcome back. You missed a lot." Paige: "Yeah, I heard. Can't help thinking it's all my fault, though." Phoebe: "How do you figure?" Paige: "Well, I'm the one who lured the Titans here in the first place, didn't I? Insert 'I told you so' here." Phoebe: "Done." Paige: "I just…felt like I was on a mission or something, you know? All those weird dreams and battles…I'm especially sorry for what it's putting you through though, Piper. I had no idea…" Piper: "Please. If I had listened to you earlier, then maybe…I'm just trying not to worry, to panic, but…I just have this terrible feeling in the pit of my stomach." Phoebe asks what feeling and Piper finally says what she's been thinking, "That Leo's never coming back." Paige: "Oh, sweetie…" Phoebe: "Of course he's coming back, how could he not?" Piper: "I don't know…just what Chris said, about Leo needing to go through something…I can't help it…" she looks heavenward, "What's he doing Up There?" In the main hall, we see the Head Dwarf hurrying down the steps and the leprechaun blurs by him. Head Dwarf: "Sorry to interrupt, but we're all leaving now." Phoebe: "Wait, why?" Head Dwarf: "Didn't you hear the distress call? The surviving Elders have been flushed out - they need our protection." Paige: "SURVIVING?" Head Dwarf: "The Elf will stay behind and take care of the kid while you battle the Titans - ciao!" With that, he's out the front door. Phoebe: "Who said anything about us battling the Titans?" Piper: "Leo…" Once again, she turns to the heavens.

EXT. Heavens - Eternal Day

Chris is pacing at the entrance, reacting to Piper's call echoing from the stars. Piper's voice; "Leeoooooo! Pleeease, can you heeeear meeeee?" Leo, backlit by the golden light, emerges from the mysterious domain carrying an Ancient Greek urn. The doors close behind him on their own. Reacting to Piper's call, he hurries up, "Piper…" Chris, stopping him, "No." Leo: "But she needs me." Chris: "Not as much as the rest of us do. You need to stay here, even afterwards. To coordinate." Leo: "Then you should go, otherwise they won't understand." Chris nods and tells Leo good luck before he orbs out, leaving Leo alone with his thoughts. Leo closes his eyes, sets down the urn, takes the lid off and chants. Eerie wisps begin to rise out of the urn.

Piper calls out again, "Leo? For God's sake, if you can hear me…" Orbs appear, giving her a brief moment of home, before they form into Chris. "You? Where's Leo9?" Chris: "He's safe, for now. Oh, good, Paige, hi…" Piper: "Never mind that, what do you mean 'for now?' What's going on?" Phoebe: "And what is this about us supposedly battling Titans?" Chris: "You're about to find out." Paige: "What's that supposed to mean?" Before Chris can respond, three swirling wisps descend from the ceiling and seep into the sisters, rocking them slightly. Then, they all react as bright magical light whips around each of them until it transforms them into…Piper, who now looks like a beautiful Grecian Goddess, wearing a flowing white toga. Paige, who's holding a trident, looking something like Xena, Warrior Princess. And Phoebe, who's dressed like Venus de Milo in a silky, sheer wrap. As they check themselves and each other out, Chris smiles like a man who's plan is coming together perfectly, "THAT'S what it means." Paige: "What happened? What are we?" Chris: "Gods." Off that bombshell…

INT. Manor - Living Room - Day

Piper, after being freshly turned into a goddess, angrily challenges Chris, the Whitelighter from the future. She angrily points out that they can't be expected to defeat the Titans dress in costumes. Chris replies, "That's not a costume, Piper. It represents your new position and power." Phoebe and Paige look over their togas. Paige announces that she likes power but stops confused as to why she had said that. Chris tells her, "Because you're the Goddess of War." Paige: "Guess that explains the pitchfork." Chris corrects her saying it's a Trident and that it's a formidable weapon. Paige tests out her new toy of power. Paige: "No kidding, huh? Anybody up for a fight?" Phoebe reacts to a tingling in her body, telling Paige that she's a lover, not a fighter. Chris tells her she's the Goddess of Love, she takes that as a natural thing. Piper: "Okay, that must make me the Goddess of Sanity because I find this ridiculous." Chris tells her that Leo gave her domination over earth and the natural elements. She acts shocked trying to take in the news that Leo did all this. Phoebe in her new role as Love Goddess slides next to Chris asking if he has a girlfriend. Chris sidesteps her and explains to them that their drives and urges are based on their powers and they have to be careful not to get distracted by them. He warns that they need to stay focused on the Titans. Piper gathers up her toga and walks over to confront Chris. She accuses him of playing a game with them and that Leo is not into making gods. Phoebe, still on the sex drive approaches Chris and asks how old he is. Piper: "The Elders forbid it, and if there's one thing Leo is -- It's a company man." Both sisters have him cornered and he faces them down calmly but firmly, telling them the Elders did forbid it, but guess what, they are now all dead, or most of them. He explains that Leo is now in charge up there and he's taking a huge risk that they won't lose their humanity. He suddenly stops and reacts to being lifted from behind. Paige hoists him high overhead with her Trident. Paige: "The Elders were killed 'cause of you. You could've prevented all this. (to her sisters) I say we castrate him." Chris tells them they need control, but Phoebe asks her sister if they can think of something else to cut off. Chris orbs out of Paige's grasp and onto the ground. He angrily tells them to focus, and announces that in his future all the Elders were killed and the world fell to the Titans. His angry announcement is interrupted by Paige, and they all turn to see Paige point her trident at the piano bar and shoot a lighting bolt. The piano explodes. Piper tell her to put it down before she hurts someone, but Paige happily says that she hopes so. Chris tells her to be careful. Phoebe tells her she should be making love and not war. Piper turns to Chris, "This was Leo's strategy? He must've lost it Up There, because these girls can't be seen in public much less -- Phoebe interrupts announcing she's late for the bachelor auction and motions to leave. With a clap of her hands she smokes out and dissipates. Chris yells to Phoebe to get back. Paige feels the weight and draw of her trident and announces that she needs to go out for demon target practice and then look for Titans. She vanishes in a flash of lightening. Chris turns to Piper telling her he was afraid that this might happen and that she needs to go after them. Piper: "Me? It was your big plan to turn them into goddesses, you clean up the mess." Chris tells her that her role as the Earth Goddess is to provide balance and that's why she feels so grounded...and in control. Piper: "Not bad, Chris. You really sound like a Whitelighter. Too bad I got one. And if he wants me to do something, he can come down and tell me himself. (to heavens) You hear that?" Chris faces Piper and gets serious, he tells her if she wants Leo then vanquish the Titans. And tells her what would happen if that doesn't happen. Piper is caught off by Chris's serious intent --

Cronus paces impatiently and calls out to a black cloud on what he sees. The cloud descends and transforms into Demetrius. Demetrius tells him he can sense what is left of the Elders and that they are scared and running for their lives. Cronus smiles. Demetrius is still resentful over the whole Meta affair and Cronus realizes he must make things right. He tells him that once they control the heavens he can have any woman he wants. Demetrius answers that he only wants Meta. Cronus suggests that maybe he can resurrect her, but now they must hit the Elders fast and hard. Demetrius agrees and feels the thrill of a kill. Cronus savors that they didn't even know what hit them and if They would have lowered their hoods then maybe They would have seen it coming. Then asks, "What are those hoods anyways?" Demetrius suggests that maybe it gets windy up there. They smile as they vanish to go finish off the Elders.

Paige holds up her trident challenging the demons to give it their best shot. Five demons stand in a semi-circle around Paige. One forms an energy ball and throws it but Paige with quick relaxes catches it and crushes it in her hand. She looks up with a smile. Paige: "Give me but one firm spot on which to stand, and I will move the earth!" She swings the tip towards the other demons asking them who's next. The other demons cower in fear and Paige reacts disappointedly. They plead her to spare them. Paige is intrigued and lowers her trident. Paige: "Mercy, huh? Interesting concept. Maybe I'm going about this all wrong. Come, take my hand, and kneel before Paige!" One demon obediently take her hand and drops to his knees and bows. The others follow suit and Paige smiles as she announces, "Being a god rules". Paige soaks in her authority, when a small tornado forms and stops to reveal Piper. She notices the demons and asks Paige what she's doing. Paige asks her how Piper found her. Piper: "Apparently it's one of my powers. To keep an eye on you. Now what's going on here?" Paige announces she's building an army to combat the Titans with a demon horde. Piper: "Wrong. (to demons) You. Demons. Out." The demon tells her that they only take orders from their liege. Paige smiles proudly to Piper, "See? They're very loyal. Really makes me realize how much time I wasted studying witchcraft. I should've been working on my general stripes." Piper grow very angry and turns to the demons and her voice booms loudly in a scary god-like voice telling them, "I said GO! NOW!" The grotto trembles and loose rocks tumbles down the wall. The frightened demons cover their heads and vanish. Paige calls after them but it's too late. She accuses Piper of scaring her followers away. Piper: "You can't have followers. None of us can. Now come on, before I unleash my wrath on you." Piper takes Paige's hand, and with a wave of her free hand forms a mini-tornado and both tornado out.

INT. Manor - Living Room - Day cont.

Piper and Paige enter to find Phoebe on a plush red couch, her silky dress strategically wrapped around her body, and six bare-chested bachelors surrounding her. Two men are fanning her with huge feather plumes, another pours wine, and the rest gathered around a bowl of grapes. Phoebe tells them to make sure they peel the grapes. Piper tells her they need to talk. Phoebe gives her a love speech and if people would talk more then there would be more peace in the world. As Piper asks Phoebe what they are doing here, Paige inspects the men by pacing back and forth hands behind her back. Phoebe: "Worshiping me, adoring me, exalting my name. There's so much love in this room I can't stand it." Piper: "Neither can I. Send your groupies away. Now." One man starts to run oil into Phoebe's feet. Phoebe tells her sister that they are happy to serve her and thanks bachelor number three. Paige stops to feel a well muscled bachelor. Paige: "You're a hearty peasant stock. How do you feel about women in command?" Piper tells her to stand down, and to the bachelors she announces that the show is over, to move along. They all stare at her. Evan: "We live to serve Phoebe." Phoebe tells Piper she should get some followers of her own, that they're a real confidence builder. Paige calls the bachelors to attention and they line up military form. Chris enters from the stairs and looks in disbelief. Chris: "What is this? Goddesses gone wild? (to Piper) I told you to keep them in line. What would you do if the Titans attacked right now?" Piper: "Back off, Chris. I got it. (angrily to bachelors) The rest of you...OUT!" As she points towards the door a wind rises in the manor and literally blows the bachelors away. Piper: "And stay out!" Piper turns her anger onto her sisters. Piper: "Time for a mortality check. Leo didn't give us power so we could build armies or form love cults. The ancient Greek gods indulged in their whims like that and look what they became." Chris says, "Petty, vindictive and plan evil." Phoebe and Paige exchange guilty looks. Piper ask them if they can keep it under control. Paige: "Reason and judgment are the qualities of a leader." Tacitus said that in 100 A.D." Phoebe: "Love will keep us together." Captain and Tennille. 1970's" Piper wants them to figure out how to beat the Titans because she wants to get back to her life and wants her family back. Suddenly they hear a magical jingle and look up. Paige: there's no Elders Up There. Who's jingling?" Chris tells them it's Leo. Piper is disturbed that Leo can jingle and Chris tells her he's an Elder under attack, and that ready or not it's time to face the Titans.

The leprechaun Finnigan brandishes his shillelagh to protect the Elder. Cronus and Demetrius are amused as the face the leprechaun. The Leprechaun takes up courage and waves his shillelagh and cries out in Gaelic. A rainbow appears in front of Finnigan and he steps into it pulling in the Elder with him. Cronus tells him they don't have time for this, and sends a stream of fire which reduces Finnegan into ashes. The rainbow disappears and the Elder falls back to the ground. Cronus turns to Demetrius and tells him to remind him to do something for the Leprechaun community, Demetrius suggests, "Maybe we can make then taller." The Elder's hood falls back to reveal, Roland. Roland tells Cronus that the Elders stopped him before and will do so again. Cronus takes it as a small threat since the Elder numbers are dwindling and soon to be gone. Cronus holds up his hand to torch him, but Piper tornados in, Phoebe smokes in and Paige Lightenings in, between Roland and Cronus. Cronus asks who are they, and Paige responds, "The Supremes". Paige then points her trident at Cronus and shoots lightening bolt at him -- who defensively raises his hand, barely managing to deflect it. Demetrius: "She wields the power of the gods". Cronus tells him just to kill the Elder and they simultaneously fire. the goddesses hold up their hands, forming a shield in front of the Elder, and deflects the Titans powers. Piper yells at her sisters for one of them to get the Elder out. The Titans shoot continuous streams, they start walking forward, closing the gap between their prey and making the heat and pain on the sisters unbearable. Phoebe announces she can't move, and Paige tells her the same. Phoebe: "I'm burning up!" Piper: (desperate) "Leo!" Just as the sisters are about to burn up, orbs swirl around them and they all orb out, along with Roland. Cronus and Demetrius look around trying to find where they went. Cronus senses and then realizes it was an Elder. Off the Titans anger and momentary defeat --

ACT II

INT. Sewer - Day

In a dank and dark sewer, with only the fairies providing light, fifteen Elders stand clustered around shadowed nooks, talking quietly with Roland. The three sisters are still trying to recover from their brush with death. Piper asks if everyone's ok. Phoebe: "No. I almost burned up, and I don't mean from desire. Is my hair singed?" Piper reassures her. Paige: (ego bruised) "Guess we're not so all-powerful after all. How'd we get outta there anyway?" Piper tells them she thinks Leo had a part in that, but she can't understand how, since he doesn't have that kind of power. Paige agrees that he must since they are here. Looking around she asks what is this place they are in. Roland overhears and tells them that this is sanctuary, and Phoebe starts coming on to him. Piper: "Phoebe. Business." Roland continues to tell them that this sanctuary is safe house that was set up by Leo to protect the Elders. Paige looks around and comments that it doesn't look safe and points out the unprotected areas. Roland continues to explain that the Titans can't sense their location and that they are hidden from them by a web of fairy magic, which was another of Leo's ideas. Piper can't help but react to Leo's handiwork, "Leo did all this?" Roland tells her he's surprised too, that the was one of the Elders that always sold him short. Roland, "You know, marrying a witch and all. No offense". Piper realizes that he's right and Roland wishes her luck with the Titans before starting to move off. Phoebe stops him with one more question, "What're you wearing under the robe?" Roland, "More robes" and moves off to join the other Elders. Piper is tired of getting news second hand so she calls for Leo. Piper: "I want my husband. I appreciate him becoming a magical folk hero for the masses, I really do, but it's my turn now. (Yells to the sky) Leo! Remember me? Your wife?" They hear a magical jingle, which only pisses off Piper more. Piper: "Hey, don't you jingle me! I need more than a jingle here mister, I need my husband. Now GET DOWN HERE!" As Piper yells out her last word, the ground rumbles with a minor tremor, only emphasizing her spoken words. The Elders struggle to keep their balance. Paige asks Piper if she wants to alert the enemy and Phoebe tries to calm Piper, saying that when Leo sees how angry she is , he'll come running. She pauses and then adds, "Okay Leo! You can come running now!" They stand to wait but nothing happens. Leo's lack of response rocks Piper, so Phoebe puts an arm around her. She tells Piper that he out saving the world, and Paige interrupts saying that he's buying them time as well. Paige: "Although I don't know where we're gonna get the strength. The Titans had no problem with my power." Phoebe: "Then let's hit 'em with mine." Phoebe smiles seductively.

Cronus and Demetrius are creeping through the manor searching. They split up searching every room.

Demetrius steps around the corner and sees -- Phoebe lying on her plush couch, posed seductively. When Phoebe sees the Titan, she pushes up off the couch and tells him that she has been searching for him. He instinctively raises his hand ready to fire but Phoebe's intoxicating power as Love Goddess takes effect and Demetrius pauses, confused. He stumbles over his words asking her, "why?" She tells him it doesn't matter why, as she takes his hand and kisses his palm. Demetrius isn't sure what to make of Phoebe, who kisses him way up his arm. She turns on her seductive and love powers over him asking him if he wants her. She asks him what would Cronus think and say and Demetrius responds that he doesn't care and if he tries to stop him he'll just -- his sentence is cut short by Cronus responding, "What?", challenging Demetrius. Demetrius: (arrogant smile) "The goddess wants to seduce me...Demetrius...a legendary Titan. (to Cronus) I was playing along till you got here." He steps away from Phoebe to join Cronus. They raise their palms and -- Phoebe: "Phooey." -- fire. Miraculously their powers pass through Phoebe. Paige emerges from the parlor, see Phoebe under fire, and walks to Phoebe, crossing through the line of fire of the Titans. Paige: "End war game." and with a wave of her hand the Titans disappear. Phoebe acknowledges that her way didn't work and Paige tells her nothing works. Phoebe: "How'd the Greeks do it?" They walk into --

And flop down on a chair and couch. They talk about why the ancient Greek gods let their powers consume them. Paige make a remark that she would rather be flayed alive. Phoebe: "Okay, the noble warrior death? Not an option for me. I wish Leo was here." Paige agrees saying she too, misses him. Orbs swirl before the girls, who look up hopefully but only Chris orbs in. Paige: "Oh, it's only you." He informs them that they rounded up all the Elders, then looks around for Piper asking where she is. Phoebe responds that she's with the baby and asks if Chris can get Leo, but Chris puts her off telling her he's busy. Paige tells Chris they have been working on a plan to defeat the Titans but every simulation ends the same way, and that they could really use Leo. Phoebe asks him to get him. Chris: "For the last time, no! What is wrong with you two? You're acting hopeless." Phoebe explains that she has always felt this way before a battle and then when Leo comes down, it just makes her feel she has the power to do anything. Paige tells them it's different for her, Leo helps her focus and calms her. Chris tells Phoebe and Paige to lock onto him for confidence and focus. Both sisters try but after a beat look at each other and ask if they got anything. Neither has. Paige starts to think they they have been taking Leo for granted and ask Chris again to get him. Chris: (frustrated) Leo is...he's Up There, okay? He's gonna stay Up There until...I'm not going over this again. What can I do to get you two over the hump here?" Phoebe and Paige reminisce, and try to imitate what Leo would say. Phoebe says, "Your power comes from your emotions!" Paige tries, "Trust the Power of Three!" And they both go into other Leo insightful sayings to bolter their courage. Chris realizes they are really hopeless without him.

EXT. Heavens - External Day

Cronus searches the misty heavens, still littered with fallen Elders. Demetrius keeps pace behind him. Cronus announces that someone is still alive Up Here and that that someone must have given mortals the Greek gods' essence. Reveal that someone is Leo, dressed in an Elder robe, watching the two Titans from behind the pillar. Demetrius tells Cronus that the gods have been recreated and they must go after them now before their power grows too strong. Cronus disagrees and still wants to find that "someone" and deal with that threat first. He scans the area concentrating his energy. He senses something. Cronus changes his course and moves toward Leo, telling Demetrius that he's trapped. Leo, back against the pillar is trapped as the Titans move closer to his position. Cronus tells Demetrius that whoever can't dematerialize without exposing themselves. Leo begins to panic, then feels something strange as he holds up his hand with ripples and turns clear. Just as the Titans round the pillar, Leo's entire body turns clear. Cronus holds up a hand when they both don't see anything. Cronus takes one last look and tells Demetrius to keep looking around. They continue the search and move away from Leo. Leo is relived and reforms. He puts up his hood and steps back to hide.
Off screen... Piper is with Wyatt, "It's okay, honey. I'm sure Daddy's okay.

INT. Manor - Piper's Bedroom/Nursery - Night

Piper rocks Wyatt, holding him tight for comfort as she tells him that she knows he misses daddy and that she misses him too. Chris runs into the room looking desperate and asking for help. Piper: "Uh, excuse me...this is my bedroom? You're not part of the family here." He tells her that her sisters need her and they are working on another plan but he feels they won't last long. He needs her because they need her and Leo and he needs her to deal with them. Piper puts down Wyatt, and says to Chris, "What is this? Chris the All Knowing, running out of answers?" He simply says "yes" because he doesn't want history to repeat itself. Piper just listens to his frustration and Chris pleads with her that they must see the bigger picture. Piper: "There's no bigger picture than my family." Chris: "Then pay attention! Because in the world where I grew up, families hardly exist. I never got a chance to know mine." Piper: "Not my fault." Chris: "Not yet." Piper makes a huge realization that stops her, and asks him if this is what it's all about...to blame them for what happened to him. Chris is evasive and tells her that he just wants them to get it right this time, for them to use the Power of Three and the Power of the gods to save the world. From the crib, Wyatt starts crying. Piper looks to the baby and then back to Chris, telling him, "If that's what you want, then I'll say it once more, and maybe you'll hear me...we need Leo. Excuse me, I have to warm up a bottle." She steps from the room and Chris considers her request, then steps to the crib and looks at little Wyatt. Mysteriously, the baby raises his protective force field. Chris: "Don't worry, you'll come to trust me in time. They all will." And Chris orbs out.

EXT. Heavens - External Day

Chris orbs in behind Leo, who has his hood up peeking around the pillar at the Titans. Leo turns and sees Chris and urgently whispers, "what are you doing? You're going to expose us." Chris: "That's the plan." Across the courtyard, Cronus and Demetrius stop, sensing something...like someone orbing. They turn to the pillar where Leo hides and see Chris poke his head out from behind it. Cronus aims and shoots a stream of fire at him. Chris quickly ducks back and the stream misses him. Chris turns to Leo, "We really should be going. Follow me." And they orb out.

INT. Manor - Piper's Bedroom/Nursery - Night

Piper returns with a warm bottle, the baby has quieted down and Piper looks around suspiciously. Piper steps to the crib and sees Wyatt fast asleep. She smiles and pulls the blanket up to his chin. Then goes over to the bed and lays back wearily. She can't but help looks over at the empty pillow beside her. She quietly says to herself, "Leo...how could you leave us?" After a beat, she hears orbing and sits up to see a hooded Elder orb in. Piper asks who he is and the Elder lowers his hood to reveal...Leo. He smiles. Leo: "Hi Piper." Piper: "You're home...." Overwhelmed, she rushes over to her husband and losses herself in his warm embrace --

ACT III

INT. Manor - Piper's Bedroom/Nursery - Night

Piper and Leo are arm in arm. Piper feels like an emotional wreck and Leo reflects an odd calm. He reassures her that he did hear her 'calls' but he had to make sure the Elders were safe first, then he told her about being cornered by the Titans and acknowledges that Chris came at the right time. Just mention of the name is like throwing cold water onto Piper's face, and questions Leo. Leo continues to tell her that Chris drew the Titans away so that he can orb and that they are following Chris's orb trail instead of his. Piper: (noticing) "What's with your hair?" Leo has a small streak of white hair over one side of his forehead. Leo is unaware that his hair is turning white until Piper points it out. He checks his reflection and regards his white hair with curiosity and a touch of pride. He amounts it to staying Up There too long. Leo asks Piper where her sisters are and Piper tells him they can wait, right now he needs to spend some time with his son. Leo: "Spoken like a true Earth Goddess." Piper is confused. Leo tells her that she needs to channel those instincts in fighting the Titans. Piper has to fight not to feel insulted by that and tells his that she was speaking from her heart, that she feels out of touch. Leo: (matter-of-fact) I know, but Chris can only throw off the Titans for so long. We need to be ready with a battle plan. Now let's find your sisters." Leo then takes an unwilling Piper's hand to lead her out.

INT. Manor - Upstairs Hallway - Night cont.

Leo and Piper are walking through the hallway when they come upon the elfin nanny going to check on little Wyatt. Piper starts to tell her that Wyatt is fine when the elfin nanny sees Leo and stops in her tracks and gives him a subtle bow and welcomes the "Wise One". Piper: (annoyed) "This is my husband. He's only wearing the Elder robe because... (to Leo) What is the deal with the hemp robe?" He tells her it was windy Up There. Piper turns to the Nanny and tells her to take a break since the baby is sleeping, but the nanny keeps her eyes locked reverently onto Leo. He smiles uncomfortably when Piper tells her to shoo. Piper pulls Leo towards the stairs, behind them the nanny is still glued to the spot and bows again as he exits.

INT. Manor - Sitting Room - Night

Phoebe is flipping through a book on Greek mythology and Paige is pacing, deep in thought. Phoebe reads about Cronus from the book, but Paige ignoring her, continues to lay out a plan to fight the Titans. Phoebe tells her to give it up, that Cronus is a guy who eats children when she is interrupted by Leo who tells her that a fable. Phoebe and Paige are surprised and race to greet him with warm hugs. Leo gets down to business. Phoebe tells him that Paige has run though every possible battle plan but every time they are defeated and die. Piper: (to Leo) "See how much this family needs you?" Leo: No, I don't. You can do this without me. Not just because you have the power of gods, or the Power of Three, but because you're the greatest force of good I know. That's why I chose you." Phoebe feels more confident and smiles to Paige and tells her that he's doing it. Paige asks what, and Leo turns to her to tell her the Titans can be defeated that all she has to do is focus. Paige thinks hard, then realizes with shock that all they have to do is declare themselves gods. Leo: "That's how the ancient Greeks did it." Phoebe reminds them of the power trip they went on. Piper tells Leo that Chris told them that they had to fight the urge that comes with being a goddess. Leo: "Chris was wrong. He doesn't know you like I do." Phoebe points out that the ancient Greeks lost their humanity and if he wants that for them? He tells them they are not the ancient Greeks and that they can handle anything since they are the Charmed Ones. He reminds Phoebe that she lost herself to the darkest love that ever existed but she came back and that she now can handle being a Love Goddess. And to Paige, he tells her, "You're a Goddess of War because you've been consumed with gaining power, but you never let that power consume you." Then Leo turns to Piper with a warm smile. Leo: "And Piper...is it really any wonder I made you the Goddess of Earth? You're everything that's beautiful and good in this world...the mother of my son. Piper is touched that he has so much faith in them. Leo: (to all of them) It's just like I've always said, your power comes from your emotions, and right now you need to dig deeper than ever before. Whatever motivates you, your heart or soul or your darkest fears, you need to find it and channel it into power. Not power to capture the Titans but power to destroy them. Forever." As Leo's speech ends we see a golden light rise and reflect off their faces. They all react with shock, which transforms into dread for Piper , who calls out Leo's name. Leo's hands and face glow ethereally and Leo raises his hand in astonishment and fear flashes across his face. Leo: What's happening to me?"

INT. P3 - Night

Cronus and Demetrius look around the closed and dark club. Demetrius is frustrated that it led to another dead end but Cronus tells him that he senses an orb trail and they are getting closer. Cronus concentrates and a smile creeps across his face. He announces an Elder is out in the open.

INT. Manor - Piper's Bedroom/Nursery - Night

Leo is standing over the crib staring down lovingly at his sleeping son. Leo whispers, " I'll never leave you. I promise." Piper off screen asks him, "Why would you?" Leo looks up to see Piper who is filled with confusion and she asks him what's going on. Leo responds that he not sure. Piper asks if she's losing him, but Leo doesn't know what to say and looks to the heavens to call to Chris. Chris orbs in with concern telling him that he's going to lead the Titans straight -- he doesn't finish when Piper interrupts asking what is happening to her husband. Chris looks closely at Leo, sensing, and Awe washes over his face, like he's standing in the presence of greatness, and Chris responds, "Something wondrous." Piper: "Cut the felgercarb! You let Elders die, you coached Leo Up There and kept him away from us...you wanted this to happen." Leo: (unsure) "Did you?" Chris answers they're not serious... Piper firmly says to Chris whatever he's doing to make it stop. Chris responds, he can't. Piper turns her attention to Leo asking him to make it stop or go away. Chris: "Piper, nobody chose this -- it chose Leo. What he did Up There, for all of us, it's nothing short of a miracle. Now he's receiving the ultimate reward, the chance to become an..." Piper turns on him like a tiger, "Don't say it! Don't you dare!" Chris tells her the world needs sources of good and what better than pure goodness than Leo. Piper's heard enough and grows defiant. She doesn't want to hear more, because Leo is not an Elder and that Elders don't have families and live on Earth. She turns to Leo and asks him to tell Chris he's not an Elder but he tells her he doesn't know if he can. Chris interrupts telling Piper that she should get back to her sisters, the Titans will be coming. Piper remains fixed on Leo, her defiance now turning to anger. She adamantly asks Leo to tell him he's not becoming an Elder. Leo tells her that her sisters are waiting for her and that she should join them. Chris interjects that the Titans could be here any -- Piper turns on him, I SAID NO!! Her voice resounds with the fury of a god sending sonic wave pulses and slams into Chris and lifts him off his feet, sending him flying. Leo calls out to Piper but it's too late. Piper crossed over, given into her fury, transforming her into a god of Olympic proportions. She marches over to Chris' unconscious body and stares down. Piper: "Maybe you heard me that time!" Leo rushes over to Chris's side and concerned speaks to Piper telling her she has found her power but now needs to control it before it controls her. Before she can respond, they hear an explosion downstairs, a crash and Paige's cry of pain. Off Piper, just looking for an object of her wrath --

INT. Manor - Conservatory - Night

Phoebe's body smashes into furniture. Paige lies nearby, within arm's reach of her trident and Cronus and Demetrius step forward to confront the sisters, as they struggle to get up. Cronus demands to know where the Elder is. A rumble starts, the ground begins to shake...it's not a minor tremble but a major seismic shift. The Earth growls, the walls groan, plaster cracks and the conservatory window blow out. The Titans, unsure of what's going on, struggle to keep their balance. They turn in surprise to see -- Piper as she tornados in, tall and defiant. The Titans fire their powers which strike Piper in the gut but she doesn't flinch. Piper: "It's not nice to piss off Mother Nature." Piper spreads her arms and a crevice opens in the ground to reveal a fiery abyss below. The Titans back away to avoid falling into it. Phoebe: "Yoohoo, boys..." They turn to see Phoebe flashing some thigh. While they are distracted Paige retrieves her trident and shoots a lightening bolt at their feet. The force sends both Titans hurtling into the abyss. They scream as they fall away. Leo runs into the room behind Piper as she waves her hand closing the rift. The rumbling subsides. Paige: "So much for the Titans." Phoebe: "Thank God." Piper: "You're Welcome." Piper relishes her power and Leo sensing this places his hand on her shoulder in effort to steady her and keep her in check. Leo gently tells her, "You did it, Piper. You found the power you needed... (to Phoebe and Paige) All of you did. (mostly to Piper) Now....it's time to give it back." Piper stares at him darkly. She tells him she's not giving anything back, and with a wave of her hand she tornados out. Off the shock of her sisters and Leo's grave concern.

END ACT III

ACT IV

EXT. Manor - Living Room - Night

Thunder and lighting rages outside and howling winds whips through trees. Leo stands before Paige holding a Greek Urn. He asks if she's ready and she's impatient to get the power out of her. Leo opens the lid and a swirling wisp escapes Paige's body and returns to the urn. Paige morphs out of her warrior custom to what she was wearing before she received goddess powers. She moves to join Phoebe who has already been turned back into a witch. Phoebe stands over a map urgently scrying for Piper, while Chris is nearby, watching. Phoebe has no luck in finding Piper but Chris tells her to keep trying. Paige curiously asks how are they gonna get the power out of Piper, now that she's on a major power trip. Paige: "She destroyed the Titans. Not even the Greek gods could do that." Chris tells them they just have to trust she has some humanity left in her. Leo serenely tells them not to give up and if anyone can do it it's Piper. Then announces if he's needed Chris can get in touch. Both sisters stop in shock, and can't understand why he has to leave. Leo tells then that the Elders are calling, and her raises his hood and orbs out. Phoebe is surprised that he just bailed on them. Paige: (to Chris) "Why isn't Leo helping us find, you know, his wife?" Chris explains that he's trusting that they will find her and talk her down before she throws the world into chaos. Phoebe: "Okay, did you miss the part about Piper being Leo's wife?" He tries to explain that Leo is needed to help restore things Up There. Paige firmly asks Chris if Leo is an Elder now, and what its all about. Chris just proudly responds, "He's on the path." Phoebe: "Okay, first of all, don't give us that creepy, pod-people smile. While being an Elder may be cool in your world, in our circles it pretty much bites. Leo is our Brother-in-law ---" Paige includes, "and Whitelighter" and Phoebe adds, "and friend". They tell Chris to go Up There to tell Leo-- She doesn't finish when a branch crashes through the front bay window. An intense storm is picking up outside, when Paige realizes that Piper's up with the storm. Chris is confused so Paige explains, "Remember the Titans were first released? There were major weather shifts, and then that earthquake?" Phoebe simply responds, "yeah", as she remembers. Paige: "When you have power over the Earth like the Titans did, it's gonna suffer your emotional baggage." Chris concludes that Piper has control over the Earth. Paige: "And she's pissed off." So, Phoebe continues with Paige's initial train of thought, that if you were a god, and angry, and taking it out on the world where would you go. Paige answers that she would go somewhere high to enjoy the damage I'm creating. They gather at the map.

EXT. San Francisco - Night

A Figure in silhouette is standing in defiance over San Francisco starring from a high vantage point near the Golden Gate Bridge.

EXT. Hill - Night cont.

The Earth Goddess, Piper, with rain beating down on her raises her left hand as if directing an orchestra. Lightening flashes around. Paige and Phoebe orb in together, spot Piper and yell to be heard over the thunder and storm. Piper doesn't turn or even acknowledge their presence. She raises her right hand causing another thunder clap with lightening. Phoebe tries to calm her down but Piper keeps her eyes fixed on the city. Piper: "Stay away from me!" Paige tells her they are here to take her home, Phoebe adds, "to your family." Piper asks what family and raises both hands for another thunder clap. Phoebe reminds her that she has a son, which stops Piper cold and she turns to her sisters. Paige continues to convince her that Wyatt needs a mother. Phoebe: "Wyatt lost his father, Piper...don't take his mother away from him, too." Piper, a figure of rage and confusion, fixes her sisters with a hard stare. Abruptly, Piper tornados out. Her sisters exchange a look of defeat. Paige sadly declares that they lost her, as the storm continues on....

EXT. Heavens - External Day

There are no signs of the past fight and struggle and it looks like business as usual as hooded figures walk about. A soaking wet Earth Goddess tornados in and the Elders stop and stare. Piper demands to know where Leo is, but they still stand there looking. One of them steps forward and lowers his hood to reveal...Leo. He asks her what she is doing here, and takes her arm, but she pulls away. Piper: "How could you do this to me?" Leo asks the Elders to excuse him, and turns his attention back to Piper. Piper: "You wanted this, too. You wanted me...your son. Our family. We fought for it. Now you're walking away?" Leo tells her it's not so simple but Piper tells him to make it simple so that she can understand. Leo tells her if he had a choice in this he would choose her. Piper interrupts and tells him to choose her now...and orb with her home to their son. In a hopeful bid she holds out her hand and Leo stares at it...if only it was that easy. Leo: "Don't you think I want to?" Piper: "I don't know. And that's what scares me the most..." Leo takes Piper's hand and speaks to her with confidence and wisdom,... a different Leo than we know. Leo: "The Elders were wrong about us. They didn't think our love could survive, but it did. Our love blessed us in ways even They couldn't foresee. It gave you the strength you needed to take over for Prue. It produced a baby with a greater future than any of us. And it made me..." Piper looks like she's just been blind-sided and finishes his sentence, "An Elder." Leo: "Our love is transcendent, Piper. It lifted me up so high, this was the only possible result. Being an Elder wasn't my destiny, but yet here I am, because of you." Piper declares she's not gonna give up on him but he tells her she can't fight this. Piper's anger dissolves to tears. The tears of sadness and broken dreams and Leo holds her in a tight embrace. As he does, a wisp rises out of Piper who morphs back into her usual clothes. He goddess essence swirls across the heavens and through massive golden doors.

The two break apart but still hold hands and Piper takes a deep breath to ask him how can she raise a family alone and Leo reminds her that she has her sisters. Then asks him if she will ever see him again and he tells her that he doesn't know that but he'll always be watching over her. Piper: "From Up Here. You won't be there for me. Or Wyatt." He promises her that he'll never leave Wyatt's side and always feel his presence but not as human love. That from her. She tells Leo that she will find a way to be strong. for him. She fights back another wave of emotion. Leo can't stand to see her in pain and tells her he can make the pain go away. Piper is hurt that he would want to make her forget but Leo reassures her that he only wants help her find peace. Leo begins to glow and then kisses her. She losses herself in the magical kiss...

INT. San Francisco - Night Into Day

The city is sunny and it is a happier day than the night before.

INT. Manor - Kitchen - Day

Paige finishes cooking frittatas, while Phoebe talks on the phone to Elise, apologizing for the night before at the bachelor's auction. She turn to Paige after she hangs up and tells Paige that they raised $18,000 for the charity and that none of the bachelors remember a thing about that night. Phoebe helps Paige in preparing plates of food. Phoebe: "Gotta admit, being a minor deity had its perks. I even got a second date with Evan." Paige asks about Jason but Phoebe tells her when Jason moves back to San Francisco then she'll give it another shot but until then...look out for the Love goddess. Phoebe asks Paige about missing her goddess power. Paige: "I've been on this major magic journey for too long, you know? I gave up my career, friends...it cost a lot. I'm tired." They pick up the plates and enter the dining room where an informal brunch has been set up. Phoebe tells her that since they defeated the Titans that they aren't gonna face anything that big again. Paige responds that she does feel fulfilled but she need a change in her life and that it might keep her mind off what they lost. Phoebe: "We're not losing him, Paige. He'll be watching over us." Paige tells her its not the same and Phoebe admits it as well. As they discuss bachelors from the auction, a knock at the door sounds and Phoebe calls for them to enter. Morris enters with his wife Sheila carrying a small arrangement of flowers. Sheila asks them if they really want company over and Morris adds that they don't want to intrude. Phoebe reassures him they are not intruding, that this was Piper's idea. Sheila and Morris are very sympathetic to Piper's loss of Leo but as Piper enters she greets them with warm hugs and smiles. Everyone stands there for an awkward moment as Piper looks at them like their crazy. Piper: "Come on, guys. This is a celebration. Leo got promoted. We should all be happy for him -- I am." Both Paige and Phoebe are suspicious of her emotion since they feel she should be devastated. Paige points out that suppressing emotion in this family can be dangerous, but Piper assures her she's not, and invites everyone to sit down. Piper forgets the baby monitor and leaves the room to get it. A worried Phoebe turns to Paige and softly tells her that something is wrong. Paige just accounts it to Piper moving on. Phoebe: "Which is what's wrong. Piper doesn't "move On". She fights I'm telling you, that's not Piper."

EXT. Manor - Front Steps - Day

Chris is sitting on the front steps outside the manor, waiting. Leo orbs in wearing his Elder's robe with hood down. After they exchange greetings, Chris asks what the Elders decide about him. Leo tells his that he's been the topic of a debate and one thing they agreed on was that he can't return to the future. Chris: "I figured as much. The time line's changed. I don't know what I'd go back to. So, what'd They decide?" Leo announces that the Elders voted to make him the Charmed Ones' new Whitelighter. Chris feigns surprise. Leo tells him its reward for helping to defeat the Titans but somehow Leo believes he expected that. Leo steps closer to Chris, studying him, "You know, I can't stop thinking about what Piper said. I can't help but wonder if this wasn't your plan all along." Chris: "Hey, I'm good, but I'm not that good." Leo tells him to take good care of the sisters and that he'll be watching over him as well. Chris: "Maybe not." Leo looks at him confused and after a quick beat, Chris glances around making sure no one's around and waves his hand -- to make Leo's body collapse into a flat plane. The plane is a two-dimensional prison, that disappears with a flash. Chris smiles to himself, straightens his clothes and opens the front door and steps inside. When he clears the door frame, he waves his hand to telekinetically shut the door. This leaves us all wondering who's this new stranger and what in heaven or hell he is up to and...where did he send Leo?

--Mandy :angelic:
 
okay MAJOR SPOIERS AHEAD! do not read if you dont' want to spoiler season six!








What's new for the new season six? Tidbits...
The Season Premiere will air September 28 on The WB.
We will see one of the sisters receive a new power, as well as find out what Chris (Whitelighter) did to/ or sent Leo, and how they will try to bring him back. The Chris/Leo plot line will most definitely be made into a 4-9 episode plot, possibly more because this is the "Big Plot" this season. The new Power will apparently be Phoebe's (still working on the name of power). Phoebe has another passive power and the power of levitation will be phased out and rarely used. I have just received word that Phoebe power of levitation won't be phased out due to the decision that more powers is in the shows best interest they will use it less but it will be used from time to time they won't eliminate this power she will have it just won't use it much throughout the season. The new Power will play a huge factor in the Chris Plot Line. Her "new" power isn't mind reading, but her emotions advance in such a way that she can respond to a persons thought even before they can.

Paige does indeed get a job as a community dog walker. Things may get a little out of control for her when she picks up a particular dog, that seems to get quickly acquainted with Paige's leg. The writers gave Paige this job because they felt making her get a job that was higher ranking than Social Worker wasn't credible enough, but I can see where a person leaving a high paying job of social worker and prefer walking dogs for a living is. (As of now the animal trainer who trained the various Lilac Point and Chocolate Point Siamese cats that played "Kit" the cat has been hired for the scenes where pets are involved.)



Episode 112 "Valhalley of the Dolls" Pt1 & Pt2
Season six season premiere will be a two hour event. Valhalley of the Dolls is about Valhalla the Norse Hall of the Slain. Leo is not dead, but is at Valhalla and he is apparently in some sort of duels against all sort of soldiers, warriors, warlord souls. The whole Leo and Chris plot will last about 5 episodes not the estimated 9 episodes I had told you and also Piper hasn't lost her mind completely she just starts loosing her memory and as a result turns to the Valkyries to aid them (or so she says.) Leo has been sought after by the Valkyries and they take him captive to become one of their warriors. The writers are trying to add a scene into Valhalley of the Dolls Pt.1 where Pipers turns into a Valkyrie (Resemble the Erinyes a.k.a. Furies) they will try to have the same plot line "Piper is angry for the loss of someone" in a way the same thing they did for "Hall Hath No Fury" the costume design is ... somewhat "different", only this time Piper isn't mourning. Piper turns into a Valkyrie due to the fact that she uses a jewel or an amulet/pendant to reinstate her conversion as Valkyrie.
From script: (Piper almost concluding the conversion with the pendant faces Valkyrie # 1 )
(VALKYRIE SEEMS TO SENSE SOMETHING ABOUT PIPER)
Valkyrie: I can only sense a small hint of a witch in her. This may leave us to the question is Piper still a witch.
More of Chris' reason for his actions are revealed, many don't understand because in this episode he seems to kill someone but then he saves someone else as well. The reason of the magical hand waving that Chris did on Leo, was that Chris made a deal with a Valkyrie in exchange for something. Leo won't be trapped in Valhalla for five episodes only the repercussions of Chris' action will last 3-5 episodes.


As for the Valkyries, in "Valhalley of the Dolls Pts. 1&2" they will be portrayed differently. In this episode of Charmed the Valkyries aren't portrayed as fair and just or evil and vindictive, though they don't like the thought of death to a hero, they do want a heroes souls to take to Valhalla. There is a scene in this episode in which a soldier is taken into Valhalla after losing his life but the Valkyries don't take him against his will he seems to go willingly (though this may be changed or edited out). Apparently the Valkyries are like the Furies they feel they are doing good but they really don't have the correct concept.

If you are saddened by the news of the lessened Leo/Fighting scenes you can look forward to a distinct fighting scene. This one includes the Valkyries and the Warriors, this is until now, one of the biggest fight scenes in the episode. The Valkyries descend amongst the streets of San Francisco after some of the many Warriors in Valhalla escape. If you aren't familiar with Norse legend then I will catch you up. Valhalla is the Norse "Hall of the Slain" where warrior’s and hero’s souls are taken after death by the Valkyries. In Norse Mythology Valhalla has roofs made of shields and 540 doors from which 800 soldiers will walk abreast and will fight in the Final War (end of the world). The warriors that escaped from Valhalla in "Charmed" are under the impression that the reason they could escape is because it's time for the final battle and they feel it's their duty to demise all life in the world, so they arrive in San Francisco with the idea "To Kill All," the Valkyries then arrive to stop them, this is where the fight scene takes place (though this may be changed and place preceding another scene). Some island scenes will be shot in a soundstage at the studios, and other will be shot most likely in a beach or park in the Los Angeles area.

As most of you already know, Leo is trapped in Valhalla. As of that time Leo has become expounder of Valhalla (champion in simplest terms). Though many look forward to seeing those much described battles of Leo against all forms of warriors, etc., we wont be able to view many after all because these fights will be made into off-camera situations (the fights are happening but whilst this is happening we are viewing another scene of the episode). When Leo is found he is in mid-battle so most likely this will be of the very few and select scenes that we will see themed about duels in this episode.

As I stated Piper does convert into a Valkyrie but the excitement doesn't stop there. Phoebe and Paige also turn into Valkyries, but not for the reasons you all may think, they are not mourning or are under a spell, they convert into Valkyries after they place the pendant that allows them to convert in order to enter Valhalla, given to them by none other than who do you think ?…Chris! This leads us to our next spoiler.

When I stated this in the "Charmed Insider" page and I quote "Many don't understand because in this episode he seems to save someone but he also kills someone as well." I will now explain what I meant: Chris, in this episode, saves a Firefighter from a Valkyrie (tentative), but Chris murders a Valkyrie to steal her pendant so that The Charmed Ones can use it and convert, he does this so that the sisters don't start to suspect of him, but he just "Fixed a cup, and broke the other", though the sisters aren't on to him… yet, Leo is. Leo starts to get suspicious and interrogates Chris as to where he "Got hold of the Valkyries pendant" and Chris swiftly changes the subject and Leo leaving this be for the moment asks where his son is. After this Leo states that they need to let the sisters know what is currently happening, Phoebe than states that the solution to turning Piper back isn't in becoming Valkyries, it's in embracing being witches and with this Phoebe and Paige remove the Pendant. Later on Chris is interrogated by Leo again, this time Leo isn't so … nice.

As of Season Six Wyatt still doesn't trust Chris, and he still raises up his force field at the sight of Chris. Possibly Sheila Morris will witness Wyatt raising his shield and ask about this occurrence, but of this has NOT been confirmed.
For those of you who may want to know if Leo after leaving Valhalla returns home, well he does not, after leaving Valhalla and straightening everything out with the Valkyries and the sisters Leo returns to his position as and Elder, Up There, sorry to all of you who may have thought otherwise, (he may be allowed to visit the sisters but as of now this will not happen ). This leaves Piper with the hassles of single parenthood, but she is a tough cookie and I'm sure she can handle it, as of now most of the scenes including Leo wont have Piper or any of the sisters in it and vice versa.


The third episode of the Sixth Season will be named :
"Forget me…not" -This episode deals with the repercussions of Wyatt’s actions after he inadvertently projects a being from a show he is viewing , into real life causing some people in the public to see him expose his magic , immediately after this action a group of being are alerted as to the action and they need to correct this mistake. Apparently Wyatt develops a power , in a way like the power that Kevin , I believe was his name, had in "Witches in Tights" which was called "Thought Projection". In this episode the sisters must now solve this problem but apparently they are exposed in this process. (Scene with the exposure may be edited but I make the necessary changes as soon as I receive them )
This Episode is set to air October 5 on The WB.

This is a list of the names of some of the characters that will appear in this episode.
Cleaner #1&2 Flo’ Single Dad, Kinesha Robinson, Wayne Lamaar, Mr. Stewick,
Frank, Co-Worker, Mailman.


The fourth episode in the Sixth Season will be named:
"Power of Three Blondes"- This episode deals with The Charmed Ones trying to recover their powers after three thick-witted sisters from the past steal the power of the Charmed Ones in order to assume their identity , Now the Charmed Ones have to deal with some unexpected visitors (who are those type of guests you just want to kill , literally) and without the aid of their powers this could turn out into a messy and dangerous situation for the Sisters but especially for Phoebe , or is it Phoebe , apparently these sisters are trying to use the Book of Shadows for a wrong action .
Until now the Names of the three sisters are : Margo , Mabel , and Mitzy (Guess the writers are trying to do the whole every name starts with the "P" only this time it’s with the "M".
This Episode is set to air October 12 on The WB.

"Vallhalley of the Dolls" Pt1


TEASER
Ext. Beach- Day

A sun-drenched crowd on the beach grind to the sounds of 'Smash Mouth', before them is an elevated stage where the radio station's, KQSF, DJ is trying to get the audience all fired up for the band that just played. The crowd cheers, as we pan around to see Phoebe, mic in hand and dressed in a sexy bikini getting makeup down and sitting next to a handsome DJ (Hangin' Chad). Hangin' Chad announces their special guest, the stunningly beautiful Phoebe Halliwell. Hangin' Chad: "I tell you what, if Dear Abbey looked like you do, I would've followed her advice every single day." The crowd hoots and hollers but Phoebe handles it like a Pro, slightly embarrassed by all the attention as well as the attention the Hangin' Chad is giving her. His next question catches her off guard. Chad: "Okay, so what's the deal with you, are you psychic, is that it? No t waiting for her to answer he continues by asking her if that's the reason why her column skyrocketed recently and that her critics even rave about her insightfulness. She answers that she just reads people well and Chad challenges her to read him. She laughs and tells him to write a letter, but he continues to challenge her to "read" him. She tells him she can't but he doesn't take that as an answer, so Phoebe tries to get out of it by asking if they have to go on break. Chad eggs the crowd on, trying to get Phoebe to "read" him, and they respond. She finally caves and asks what he would like advice on. He tells her that their is a woman he likes and would like to ask her out but is afraid she will say no, what should he do? Phoebe studies him and surprises him by answering, "Why don't you just ask me and find out?". The crowd goes wild and it is not Chad that looks uncomfortable and Phoebe is just smiling back at him.

EXT. Beach - Later - Day

A table is set up with cheeses and fruits and Chad grabs a snack. Phoebe approaches and apologizes to him if she embarrassed him. He's fine, and responds that he's glad it was only radio. Phoebe, serious, continues to apologize, by saying she doesn't know why she answered that way. He tells her she was dead on with the advice and was exactly what he was feeling. Phoebe a little bolder tells him that maybe she should ask him out, to take the pressure off. Chad is a little surprised and Phoebe feels it and backpedals, " I'm sorry, what's the matter with me? Must be the heat."

Unbeknownst those on the beach, Chris orbs behind the station's truck and moves urgently to Phoebe. Phoebe and Chad are in the mist of making plans to get together, when Chris interrupts. Phoebe asks him what he is doing here when Chad interrupts saying that he has to get back. Phoebe enjoys the show as he moves off to the stage, fanning herself. Chris reminds Phoebe of the Trok Demon. Phoebe, "Oh, for god's sake, Chris, get a life." He takes her arm and leads her to an inconspicuous place to orb. Phoebe wonders out loud, Whew, is it hot out here, or what.." , as the pass by a couple making out.

EXT. Alley/Street - Day

Five energetic dogs on leashes come bounding around the corner into an alley, towing an out of control Paige behind them. Paige, losing the battle tells them, " Whoa, whoa, hey c'mon, slow down, gimme a break..." She stumbles and looses the leashes and the dogs take off. She yells at them to wait. Panicked, as she sees them heading for the street ahead, takes a quick look around and orbs out. She orbs in front of them and holds up her hand commanding them to stop. The dogs, a little freaked, do exactly that. Paige, sighing at her lot in life, moves to grab the leashes and quietly saying to herself, "I gotta get a real job..." Chris orbs in next to her and reminds her of the Trok Demon. Paige: "What, now!? C'mon, Chris, can't you see I'm working?" Then, feeling something odd, looks down to see one of the dogs, a little mutt named Oscar, humping her leg. Paige used to this already, just sighs again.

INT. Manor - Main Hall/ Sitting Room - Day

Chris, Paige and the five dogs orbs in to find an impatient Phoebe, pacing the floor, and doesn't wait for Chris to fully form to tell him to hurry, but pauses when she see the dogs and asks where they came from. Paige tells her he wouldn't let her take them back first. She doesn't understand and Paige responds, "To their homes. I'm a -- (forced to admit) dog walker. Temp Agency screwed up." Phoebe stares. Paige follows her gaze to see the frisky mutt humping her leg again and tries to shake him loose. Chris, "Do you guys mind? We gotta summon the Trok Demon whole he's still on our plane. (calls for) Piper?" Phoebe tells him to lighten up and sending them after demons all the time is getting to be a drag. Paige tangled in leashes comments, "Yeah, you're working us like dogs." Chris reminds her that Piper doesn't complain and Phoebe points out that Piper doesn't complain anymore, about anything since Leo left, that she's always so chipper. Chris doesn't see anything wrong with that. Paige, "So, it's not Natural. More importantly, it's not Piper. Piper comes blissfully bounding down the stairs holding 8 month Wyatt in one hand and talking on the phone in the other. She perkily makes a play-date on the phone with other moms and their kids. She passes the dogs and comments on how cute they are then continues into the kitchen. Paige, "She's getting worse." Phoebe, "Definitely." Chris is irritated, Phoebe asks if he already has a vanquishing spell, and he hands it to her. He gives them last minute instructions, and Paige hands him the leashes to bring them up to the attic. Chris, "Wait, me...?" She tells him not to forget to give them water. He leaves as the dogs pull a reluctant Chris up to the attic. Piper returns without Wyatt ready to go, "Alrighty, are we ready?" Paige responds, "Alrighty..?" Piper, "Phoebe, have I told you how much I just love your new doo? (touches it) It's to die for!" Phoebe pushes her hand away, saying that she is way too chipper. Phoebe hands Paige the spell then closes her eyes to concentrate. Piper, looking forward to this, smiles at Paige, who scowls in response. The the two headed Trok Demon materializes, surprised to have been yanked from wherever he was. Phoebe yells at Piper to freeze him, Piper gestures but accidentally blows up one of the demon's heads. The other head reacts horrified. Phoebe asks her why she did that and Piper responds, "I don't know, I didn't mean to. (thinks it's funny)" Before they can react, the demon sends a concussive wave at them, sending them flying backwards into furniture. Phoebe scrambles to the spell and reads, "From other worlds far and near, Let's get him the Trok out of here." The demon explodes. Phoebe quickly turns back to her sisters, "You Okay?" Piper, "Oh, yeah, sure, that was fun!" Paige, "Speak for yourself." Phoebe, (off her shoulder wound) "Paige..." Piper announces that they have to get Chris, and hops to her feet and breezes up the stairs, ever cheerful. Her sisters watch, dumbfounded.

Act One

INT. Manor - Living Room - Day

Paige is still holding her wounded shoulder and enters the room followed by an apologetic Chris. She can't believe that he can't heal her and wonders what kind of Whitelighter can't heal. He reminds her that she's a whitelighter too and that she can't heal as well. Paige, "I'm half whitelighter, that's different -- how come we didn't know about this before we hired you?" Chris simply responds that he was assigned by the Elders and they didn't hire him. Phoebe enters with some bandages and ointment for Paige and asks Chris is he has any other surprises he'd like to share. Chris, (just the big one) "No....Look, I haven't been a whitelighter very long, okay? Healing's big, it takes time to learn how to do it." Phoebe tends to Paige's shoulder and Paige tells Chris that he should have told them about a month ago about that. Phoebe tells him that they're putting a stop to demon fighting for awhile. Chris asks why and Phoebe's eyes Piper as see enters effortlessly balancing a diaper bag, toys and Wyatt in a backpack, and responds, "That's why". Piper announces she has dinner in the oven and that she'll be at the club before exiting. Phoebe feels oddly affected by her, "Whoa, I can't believe how sad she is." Paige questions her when suddenly she winces with pain (Phoebe still bandaging her). Phoebe winces as well, "Ooooh, that hurts, I can tell." Paige shoots Phoebe a curious look as Phoebe finishes. Chris ask them to get three more demons before taking a little break. Paige, "What, are you on a quota?" He tells the sisters that his future knowledge he knows some demon's going to come after Wyatt and these are just pre-empted strikes. Phoebe answers that they like him but they have been doing this a lot longer than he has and that he has to learn to pace himself, "And you've gotta let us have a life." then announces she's late for a lunch date with Chad. Chris interrupts still trying to make a deal, now it's two demons. Phoebe firmly says no, not until they figure out what's wrong with Piper and more importantly her powers. Paige suggests that Leo did something to Piper to mask her pain , so Phoebe suggests that they orb Leo's butt down to them to find out. Chris protests, saying it's not possible, but Phoebe is insistent that he make it possible. Chris struggles, he can't. Paige tells him just to go "Up There" and tell him they need him. Chris responds, "That's not why I can't... (reluctantly admits) Look, I didn't tell you this before because...I didn't wantt o worry you, but...Leo's missing." Phoebe is the first to respond surprised and Paige asks him what he meant by missing and how long. He tells them since they last saw him and the Elders think that he was kidnapped. Phoebe, "Kidnapped? By whom...?"

Piper responds that the club wasn't being used and besides, the manor was running out of room with Wyatt's play dates. Sheila thinks its great even with everything that she is going through. Darryl shoots her a look and Piper picks up on it, "What?". He explains that Sheila's been concerned about her because of Leo and all. She asks Piper if she even gets to talk to him. Piper, "No, probably against the rules. (upbeat even about this) Doesn't do any good to cry over spilt milk though, right? Just gotta push ahead, for Wyatt."

Chris simply responds that he was assigned by the Elders and they didn't hire him. Phoebe enters with some bandages and ointment for Paige and asks Chris is he has any other surprises he'd like to share.

Chris sits staring out the window, while Paige is scrying on a city map, global map and a star chart on the coffee table.

Paige points out that she's using Leo's flannel shirts as a focal point in finding him. Phoebe, sensing something turns to Chris and asks what's his problem. Chris stops, surprised and mutters. Phoebe, "You're nervous, why?" Chris caught off guard doesn't know what to say. Paige tells him to watch his vibes. Chris, "I...just think you should be concentrating on helping Piper, not Leo." Phoebe turns to Paige and tells her she was right. Paige ignores Chris and simply responds that finding Leo is helping Piper. Chris, "Then, you'd better find another way because you're not going to find him. (Covers) I mean, you haven't yet, have you? I'm telling you, you've gotta leave it to the Elders, you've gotta let it go." Paige bursts out, "Let it go? For God's sake, Chris we're talking about Wyatt's father here." Phoebe adds, and brother-in-law. Chris quickly replies, "ex brother-in-law." He tells them they have to stay focused on their sister, since they all might be at risk. Paige stops scrying and agrees with Chris. Phoebe just wonders how to unblock Piper's pain without Leo's help. Paige, "How about a magical laxative?" Phoebe, "OK, ewww...." Paige is serious and explains about a certain spell. Phoebe liking it is dialing the phone and Paige asks who she's calling. She responds that she's canceling her date with Chad, but finds that he has already canceled on her and she gets upset. She just can't understand why a guy would do that to her. Phoebe, pissed , grabs her purse and storms out, Paige tries to stop her by reminding her of the spell they have to write. Phoebe, "Yeah, well I've got a Deejay to grill." Chris hesitantly wonders, "Cross-examine grill, or barbeque...?" Paige just glares at him.

A hot dog sizzles on a grill which is picked up and placed on a bun and then handed to Chad. He takes a bite and moves off. He is about to take another bite when Phoebe approaches. Phoebe, "Ya know, I hear Bayview Cafe has hot dogs too..." Busted. He turns surprised and asks her what she's doing here and she answers that she was about to ask him the same thing. Chad fumbles out an excuse and tells her that something important came up. Phoebe moves closer and senses how he really feels. Phoebe, "Wait, are you intimidated by me?" He tells her no but Phoebe is on a roll with her senses and figures out that he just didn't want her just for lunch... busted again and he backs up, telling her hold on. Something is still driving Phoebe's emotions and she continues with her accusations by now pointing out that he might not like successful women where he's not the star. Chad looks to escape but Phoebe won't let him, fully engaged now. She begins to lay it on him really thick now. At the end Phoebe's weeping, Chad looks around hoping no one sees this and scowls at her telling her that she's overreacting a little. Phoebe, (childish) "No, I don't! (regains some clarity) Actually, yeah I do..." Backing away from him, trying to understand, she reacts to crying and turns in that direction to see a five year old girl, not far away, having just fallen off her bike. She is being consoled by her mother, but more importantly, the little girl's crying just like Phoebe was.

Phoebe, not liking the connection, begins to get a real bad feeling. She looks over at Chad, who's starring at her, and musters an embarrassed smile and bolts past the crying girl.

INT. Manor - Attic - Day

Oscar, the frisky mutt keeps getting shaken off in his obsession with Paige's leg, who is standing over the BOS, scribbling down a spell while on the phone with a person from the dog walking service. She explains the dogs are fine and in fact are exercising at that moment. She looks over and sees they are playing tug-o-war with a pillow, and another one digging up an area rug. She pushes Oscar away and whispers harshly, "Why don't you go hump a dog, you ever think of that?" And has to quickly apologizes to the person on the phone telling him that she didn't mean him. She continues to explain that she came to his agency in hopes of helping people not animals and that she is a qualified Social Worker. And at the end promises to get the dogs back within the hour.

Paige descends the stair to find Chris reluctantly carrying a detachable car seat with a nine month old baby strapped inside. Paige asks him who's that and Chris replies to ask Piper. An energetic Piper heads back toward the open front door, where another baby sits, strapped into a car seat. Piper cheerfully says hi and how's it going? Paige, "How's it going?! Piper, what're you doing? Whose babies are these?" She explains that their mommies couldn't pick them up in time so she offered to bring them home for awhile. Piper carries the baby past an amazed Paige who follows her into the Conservatory. She sets down the baby in the play pen where Wyatt is already playing. Paige, "Piper, what about Leo?" Piper, "I don't know, what about him?" Chris shoots Paige a look and crosses over to her asking if the paper in her hand is the memory spell. When she responds, yes, he tells her to cast it. She starts to read, "Powers and emotions tied, A witch's heart is where it hides, Help her through her agony, Bless her with her memory." A soft glow forms around Piper's head as she places the last baby in the pen. She pauses to react, then slowly straightens but doesn't turn. Paige asks if she's ok, after a beat Piper stares at the two of them, "I'm sorry --do I know you?" Paige laughs it off thinking Piper is joking, but Piper returns a blank look. Then Wyatt begins to cry, she reacts as if she's never seen any of the babies before, then looks back at Paige and Chris. Piper, "Cute -- yours?" Paige, "Oh my God -- no, Piper, yours." She is puzzled by this and then asks who she is and what is she doing here. Wyatt continues to cry, Piper confused looks back at him. Chris glares at Paige, "Great, Paige, you didn't restore her memory, you erased it!" Paige tell him that's impossible, there was nothing wrong with the spell, but maybe it could have interacted with whatever magic Leo used on her. Chris, "Gee, ya think?" Paige, "Okay, a little tip? You're not helping." Meanwhile Piper is bothered by a fly buzzing around and absentmindedly waves her hand and blows up a nearby hanging plant. Piper startled, screams. Paige and Chris run over trying to console and calm her. Chris pushes her arms down and tells her not to point at anything. Piper's concern grows and asks what is going on. Paige tells her when they figure it out they'll let her know but for now to take a load off and relax. Piper heads to the Living room, and Paige calls after her to remember to keep the hands down. Paige turn to Chris and tells him not to panic and then she notices a crying Wyatt looking at one of the babies and orbs a pacifier out of her mouth and into his.

INT. Manor -Main Hall/Living Room - Day

Phoebe enters in a rush and spotting Piper and bee-lines straight for her. Phoebe hurriedly says, "Piper, you're never going to believe this, but I think I just got a new power! I mean, it'd certainly explain a lot of weird behavior lately -- Like why I was interested in Chad, maybe even why my advice has been so amazingly accurate..." Piper, not knowing who she is, frowns at Phoebe, who misinterprets the look as intrigued. Phoebe continues with her new found idea. Chris crosses over to explain interrupting Phoebe, who tells him to hold on, and continues to talk to Piper. Chris tells Phoebe she doesn't understand that her memory is wiped. Phoebe quizzical looks back to Piper, who's still frowning. Piper, "Can you blow things up too?" Phoebe realizing, "Oh boy... (madly calls) Paige!?" Phoebe marches past Chris who directs her into the other room.

INT. Manor - Conservatory - Day

Before Paige can say anything she stops and instantly becomes sympathetic, "Oh, you poor dear, you feel awful about it, don't you? I'm so sorry." Chris, "That's it? That's all the ass kicking you're going to dole out? You're supposed to be sisters!" Phoebe tells him that she's obviously devastated. Chris is at wits end, "But you can't let her off the hook, you need enough guilt to get her to fix this!" Just then the scrying crystal lands and Paige announces that 'we' found Leo. Phoebe, "We?" Paige tells her that Wyatt and her did and nothing is more special to Leo than him and tells her "let's go". Chris asks, "Go where? It's pointing to the Indian Ocean." Paige explains that there must be something there, since she trusts Wyatt. Chris tells her that it's crazy and Phoebe tells him that she feels strongly on this. She takes Paige's hand, and Paige asks Chris to take home the dogs for her. Chris protests but Paige and Phoebe orb out before he can finish his sentence, frustrated he kicks a toy, causing Wyatt to put up his protective shield.

Paige comments that it takes a helluva lot of magic. They quickly duck down as they hear someone coming. Three warriors rush up as if they were searching for something but continue on. Paige is relieved that they weren't looking for them, but before she can finish her though, Phoebe suddenly pounces on her, pinning her, and strangling her. Phoebe, "Die!!" Paige, "Are you -- out of --Your mind?" Paige finally manages to push Phoebe off and tries to catch her breath. Paige asks if she's still upset overt he memory spell, but Phoebe tells her she must have tapped into the warriors feelings and it overtook her. Paige, "Great, well do me a favor? Let them kill me, not you. C'mon, we gotta keep looking for Leo..." They continue on with Paige taking the lead.

They turn to look inside the ring as Leo emerges from the other side of the cave. They sisters can't believe it and rush to meet on either side of the bars. Leo tells them that they have no idea how good it is to see them and then notices that Phoebe has cut her hair. She asks him if he likes it but Paige interrupts and asks Leo what he's doing here. He tells them that somebody put him here, suddenly he warns them. The sisters turn just as two Valkyrie guards run up and supernaturally send them flying across the cave. One Guard moves to pick up Phoebe but she grabs her by the shirt and flips her. The guard continues to roll, turning the tables on Phoebe as she slams her against the bars, strangling her. The other guard lifts Paige off the ground and slams her against the bars. Straining, she tries to orb out but the guard squeezes even tighter, not letting her. Leo scrambles to the center of the ring, picks up two swords, aims and flings them end over end at the guards. The guards faces go slack, stunned, they release the sisters as they stumble backwards revealing swords imbedded in their torsos and collapse onto the ground, dead. Phoebe and Paige recover and follow the trajectory of the swords back to Leo. Paige, "Whoa, Leo, didn't know you had it in you." He tells them he's changed, then warns them that they have to leave before the Valkyries find them and if Paige orbed in then they are already alerted. Phoebe asks who are the Valkyries and what do they want with him. She doesn't get an answer when they hear approaching voices. Leo, "You can't orb out from in here, it's protected --(desperate) Get out of here, run!" Paige sees approaching shadows and pulls Phoebe toward another exit. Phoebe looks back and promises Leo they'll be back.

Paige and Phoebe, emerging from the cave, orb out in mid-stride.

ACT THREE

INT. Manor- Living Room -Night

Oscar, the dog, is snarling at Chris and Chris is barking at Phoebe and Paige as they thumb through the BOS, telling them they could have gotten killed. Paige simply responds back that they were looking for Leo...and found him. Chris explodes, "I don't believe this, it's like you guys aren't taking any of this seriously!" Oscar growls at Chris who turns to Paige expecting her to do something about it, but she tells him she can't help it if he doesn't like him. Chris reminds her that the dog's her job not his. Paige commands him to lie down and he does so by her feet. Phoebe realizes she forgot about Piper and asks Chris about her. He responds that he put her in her room hoping it might jog some memory, since they weren't helping. Phoebe shoots him a look. Paige exclaims joyfully as she finds the page that describes Valkyries and starts to read with Phoebe finishing. Both are surprised to learn the Valkyries might be "good" but confused as to why they would need an Elder. Chris grows increasingly uncomfortable and tries to steer them away from where they are headed. Phoebe puts him off and states that they have to go back for Leo. Chris says it doesn't sound like he's in any danger and Phoebe and Paige make convincing arguments otherwise. Phoebe, "That, plus he still may be the only way to save Piper, why wouldn't you at least want that?" The sisters stare at him forcing him down a path that might lead to his exposure. Reluctantly he tells them how they can get in, since they can orb in without being detected. Paige asks him how he knows this and he tells them that he's crossed paths with them before and explains how to get in as one of them. Phoebe asks how are they supposed to do that and Chris replies, "You just have to arrive with a warrior's soul." Phoebe and Paige look at each other like he's crazy. Phoebe, "C'mon Chris, where are we supposed to get a warrior's soul?" Chris has no ideas and orbs out leaving Phoebe and Paige exasperated.

INT. Sewer - Night

A policeman falls to the ground with a gunshot to the stomach, he watches helplessly as the criminal takes off running. Suddenly the Valkyrie Leysa is standing there smiling down at him, reassuringly telling him he doesn't have to be frightened, she'll take care of him. Chris orbs in behind her and immediately answers, "I don't think so, Leysa, not this time..." Surprised, she turns to see Chris. She knows him and wonders what he's doing there. He tells her his plans have changed since the witches found out about Leo, sooner than he wanted them to. Chris, "I mean, it's not like I was just gonna leave him there forever anyway -- just long enough to get the girls to trust me." Leysa tells him that's not her problem, she kept her end of the deal. Chris tells her he's grateful but he can't risk them finding out what he's up to and tells Leysa he's sorry. She realizes what he's saying -- he rapidly squeezes his hand into a fist, causing Leysa to react as if something just crushed her heart. She drops to the floor and Chris hurries over to her asking her to forgive him. He rips off her jade pendant just before she expires and vanishes. Chris looks at the pendant. closes his fist around it, angry at what he had to do. The police officer looks at him and Chris reaches for him, but instead of hurting him, Chris unclips the officer's microphone and calmly speaks into it saying that there is an officer down and the location. At least he hopes he saved one life...

EXT. Alley - Night

The dark night is suddenly interrupted as Darryl, dressed in jeans and T-shirt shoves a handcuffed criminal against an unmarked car. As he shoves the criminal into the car he notices Paige and Phoebe orb nearby. Shocked, he pushes the criminal into the car and tells him to wait, slams the door and crosses to the girls and ushers them around the corner. He asks them what are they doing and they respond that they need his help. Darryl, "Does this have anything to do with why you asked Sheila to watch Wyatt? (off their looks) She just called." Phoebe tells him yes and they doesn't have much time, it's about Leo, Paige blurts in. Phoebe tells Darryl they need his help to save Leo. Darryl, "Anything, you know that, just name it." Phoebe, "Okay --we need to borrow your soul for a coupla hours." Paige quickly tells him not to worry they will bring it back, promises. Phoebe tells him it's safe and that his body will just drop into a coma, but as long as they put his soul back in time. Phoebe, "--You should be fine, other than maybe a little headache. So, what do you say?" Darryl eyes them both, then realizes that they were serious. It's the only way to say Leo, Phoebe says. Darryl tells them to forget it, he's not doing it. Phoebe pleads. Darryl, "No, no way, absolutely not! I mean, I love Leo like a brother --" He turns, starts to walk away, but Paige pulls out a potion and throws it at his back causing Darryl's body, which collapses to the ground, to separate from Darryl's spirit, which obviously keeps on walking and talking. Darryl, "--but there's a limit to what you can ask a man to do, and this is way over the limit!" Paige interrupts him. He turns and asks what. Off their looks he sees his unconscious body lying on the ground. Darryl, "Great, this is just great..." Phoebe holds out a small urn, pulls off the top and Darryl's spirit gets sucked into it. She replaces the top and shoots Paige an anxious look.

INT. Manor - Piper's Bedroom - Night

Piper looks quizzical at Chris who tells her everything's fine and she'll be ok. Chris takes the jade pendant and fastens it around her neck, then steps back to watch as Piper magically transforms into a sexy Valkyrie. She looks at herself not knowing what to think. Paige and Phoebe orb in at that moment, Phoebe sees Valkyrie Piper and asks Chris what he did to Piper. Chris tells her that he turned her into a Valkyrie and convinced her she was one considering her mind was a blank. Paige asks why and Chris responds, he did it because they might need the Power of Three to get Leo out and this is the only way to get her in. Phoebe and Paige exchange a look, unable to argue with that. Phoebe tells him that Piper is gonna kill him when she gets her memory back, when she finds out he did this to her. He simply asks why. Phoebe, "Because she hates wearing costumes as much as we do." He tells them if that's the case they're gonna kill him too and tosses each of them a jade pendant. smiles off their misery, Phoebe and Paige are not looking forward to this.

EXT. Valhalla - Clearing - External Day

The portal opens and three stunning Valkyries emerge as if from a dream. They stroll through the deserted training camp and into the fighting ring, passing two Valkyrie guards helping a dazed defeated warrior. Freyja turns to see them enter and approaches followed by Kara and Mist. She asks, "Can I help you?" Phoebe tells her they brought in a warrior. Phoebe asks if there is a problem as Kara steps forward challenging her why she ignored the ban. Paige, "Ban?" Mists responds a ban on leaving the island instituted at dusk. The sisters exchange a look and Phoebe first to answer that they didn't know since they left that morning. Then it gets worse as Freyja appraises them asking why she doesn't recognize them. Phoebe and Paige look on, not sure whether to bolt or not, but then to their surprise Piper confidently answers, "Well, perhaps you'll recognize this --" and pulls the top off the urn and Darryl's spirit emerges, looking confused and scarred. Piper, "--a warrior's spirit, one worthy of Valhalla." Fryja studies them and after a beat, turns to Piper and kisses her on both cheeks, telling her, "well done". Kara and Mist similarly greet Phoebe and Paige, who awkwardly receive the kisses, then look to Piper, who doesn't look like she feels awkward at all.

END OF ACT THREE

ACT FOUR

INT. Valhalla - Fighting Ring - Eternal Day

Morris' now corporeal spirit lands on the dirt next to a skull. As he spits dirt out, a sword and shield are tossed to him. Not understanding, he looks at Kara. She waves her hand over the gate, locking it, then passes Phoebe, Paige and Piper on her way to the gallery. Servant Warriors are attending to Freyja and the others. Paige's only comment, "Not a bad afterlife, if you ask me." Which prompts Phoebe to smack her, wanting her to focus on the task. She feels guilty and whispers to Morris, "You're doing great." She gives him a 'thumbs up' and he frowns back at her. The cave wall rises within the ring and the Masked Gladiator emerges, sword and shield ready. We know it's Leo, but Morris can't tell as he scrambles to his feet. Leo's surprised to see him and, as he looks around, he's even more surprised to see Phoebe and Paige on the other side of the gate. Piper looks at her sisters curiously, then motions for Leo to fight. Paige, whispering, "I know how we're going to save Leo, but how are we gonna save Darryl, too?" Phoebe, whispering back, "I don't know, that's why they call it 'winging it'." Piper, loyal to her new 'sisters', "What are you two talking about?" Phoebe and Paige exchange a worried look. In the ring, Leo and Darryl just keep circling each other, each nervous for a different reason. In the gallery, Freyja, growing impatient, commands them to attack. Leo, hesitating, looks over at the girls for guidance. Morris doesn't wait for anything and ferociously swings his sword, knocking Leo's mask off. When Leo, rubbing his jaw, turns his face back toward him, Morris is stunned. By the gate, Phoebe and Paige nervously look at Piper who recognizes him and blurts out, "Leo??" Phoebe and Paige whip their heads towards her, worried about being exposed, then they look over to the gallery. Only Kara is looking at Piper, not sure if she heard her right. Back at the gate, Paige asks Phoebe what they should do, Phoebe starts to reply, but is overcome by a sharp pain in her heart, "It's Piper, the pain's coming back - hurry them up!" Paige takes a moment to absorb that, then turns to Leo and yells, "Kill him!" In the ring, Morris isn't too happy to hear that, but before he can do anything, he's blindsided by Leo. As they both topple to the ground, Leo whispers to him, "Just take the fall…" Darryl: "Fall? What fall?" In response, Leo head butts him. As Darryl rolls onto his side in pain, Leo tells him to stay down. Leo then stands up, victorious, and the Valkyries in the gallery grumble their displeasure. By the gate, Piper, gaining clarity by the second, turns to her sisters, NOT whispering: "What's he doing here? What are WE doing here?" Paige tells her to be quiet. Phoebe feels an even sharper pain, "Owww" She turns to Paige and tells her to do something. She takes the lead and turns to the Valkyries, "We…really apologize for bringing you such a weak warrior. We'll, uh, get rid of him for you…" Mist: "Get rid of him?" Paige, thinking fast, hoping it works, "Yeah, you know, send his worthless spirit on or something. Like - to the hereafter?" Freyja: "Very well." Freyja leads her entourage past the sisters who pray Piper doesn't blow it until after they leave. The moment they do, Phoebe urges Paige, "Potion…potion…" As Paige reaches for the vial, Piper reacts to Leo as he helps Morris closer. Piper, remembering, becoming emotional, "You left me, didn't you?" This time, Phoebe doubles over in pain, letting out a gasp, she clutches her chest. Paige throws the vial at the gate, which explodes, then swings open. Leo helps Morris past an increasingly emotional Piper, and Phoebe starts feeling worse, telling Paige they need to get out, fast!

EXT. Valhalla - Clearing - Eternal Day (continuous)

They emerge from the cave, Leo (helping Morris) checks to make sure it's safe, then calls back, "It's clear…" Paige, helping Phoebe, follows them. Lagging several steps behind them, Piper emerges much more slowly. Paige says she'll open the portal. She lets go of Phoebe and steps in front of Leo and Morris to touch her pendant, but doesn't when Phoebe lets out a sharp cry and drops to her knees. Phoebe: "Oh my God, her heart's breaking inside…" Paige looks from Phoebe to Piper, who's wearing her pain on her face. She's overloaded by the returning flood of emotions and instinctively stays back to protect herself from the source of that pain. Leo: "Piper…" Piper: "No…stay away from me." Leo: "I promise, I'll explain everything when we get home, but right now, we need to…" Piper: "HOME? We don't have a home anymore…YOU LEFT US…" She's losing it and Leo looks to Phoebe, hoping she can help, wondering what to do. Phoebe, feeling Piper's pain, snaps at him. "Talk to her!" Paige, "Quickly!" Leo: "I didn't have a choice, I became an Elder. It's not something I wanted, it's just something that…happened." Piper tells him she knows it all, but questions why she didn't' remember it. Leo, forced to admit it, "Because I used my powers so you wouldn't have to…your anger almost destroyed a city, then your pain almost destroyed you. I wanted to help you, so you wouldn't have to deal with it all at once." Piper: "So, you took away my feelings?" Leo: "No, never. I was going to remove the spell slowly, so you could feel a little more every day, but - then someone did this to me, put me here, so I couldn't…" Piper, through tears, nods…while not agreeing, she at least understands why he did it. Leo, feeling something himself, more than an Elder should, "I'm sorry…" Darryl interrupts them, "Uh, hate to rush you, but do you think we can get outta here now, PLEASE?" Paige: "I second that!" Piper nods again, willing herself to hold it together, but as Leo passes Phoebe, he doesn't notice the look in her eyes. Phoebe: "You bastard…" Leo looks back at her. She lets loose on him, channeled from Piper, completely uncensored. Her channeling is so complete, she speaks in the first person, as though she actually IS Piper. "How dare you do this to me? To our son? After everything we've gone through?!" Paige: "Phoebe…what are you doing?" Phoebe doesn't hear her, or at least, doesn't show it, and keeps going, "We had a life together, we had a family, and you just destroyed it! You destroyed me!" Piper, oddly witnessing her inner feelings personified, begins to back away from them, but Phoebe's not letting up. "Do you have any idea what you're doing to me? Leaving me all alone, to raise our son by myself? How could you? HOW COULD YOU?!" Three warriors in training react to Phoebe's scream. Weapons in hand, they start running toward the sound. Phoebe, overwrought, starts hitting Leo in the chest until he finally grabs her arms to stop her. The anger dissolves into tears and she cries. Piper, though, still backing away, shakes her head, trying not to feel what Phoebe's been saying, then she calms. Phoebe too, begins to calm, connecting with herself again. She looks up at Leo, not understanding, "I don't feel Piper anymore…" Paige hears the approaching warriors-in-training, "We have to go, now!" She touches her pendant and opens the portal. Phoebe tells Piper they have to go. Piper: "Go? Go where?" Paige tells her to hurry but she's not moving. Phoebe tells her it's no use as the warriors emerge, seeing everything. Paige, Morris, Leo, and Phoebe are by the portal, Paige asks what they should do. Phoebe tells them they have to leave her and they disappear into the portal…the warriors jump in, just before it closes. Freyja and Kara come out of a different part of the jungle, just in time to see what happened, but too late to do anything. Feryja's furious and turns to Piper. She's showing no fear, believing she truly belongs.

ACT FIVE

EXT. Alley - Night

We're outside, looking in on the still cuffed perp. He's kicking the divider with both feet, tiring, clearly he's been at this a while and is now freaking out. Lights around the corner catch his eye and he stops, peering through the shadows. Around the corner, we see Phoebe and Paige, still in costumes, plus Leo and Morris' (corporeal) spirit emerge. The moment they're all out, Paige touches her pendant, closing the portal. Phoebe warns Leo, "Watch out for Darryl's body." He stops, seeing the body where it fell. Darryl's spirit: "Thank you. Is he - I mean - am I still alive?" Phoebe, checking his pulse, "Barely." Leo tells them they have to go back and get Piper. Phoebe: "How, by force? She won't come, she's withdrawn - back into believing she's a Valkyrie." Paige: "Besides, we certainly can't go back now." Leo: "But we can't just leave her!" Phoebe tells him they're not going to hurt her, they need her…to get to them. Darryl's Spirit: "Listen, about my body…" Paige: "Oh, sorry, just step back in." Darryl's Spirit: "That's it? Even though I'm…solid?" Paige tells him he's still a spirit. Phoebe tells them all they have to get back home to figure out what to do, grabs Leo's and Paige's hand, looks at Morris, "Thanks again…" and they all orb out. Darryl, not getting the love he hoped for, "Don't mention it…" He looks down at his body, not quite sure how to step back in. He takes a step, into his own chest, and gets sucked back in his body. He opens his eyes and hops to his feet, looking down, making sure there's no body, then allowed himself a smile, but it's short-lived as another portal opens and the three warriors emerge. Not surprised, with the way his day is going, "Great, this is just great…" We then see the perp. Still in the car, trying to figure out what's going on through the shadows. He reacts to a rapidly approaching scream and Morris comes flying across the alley and lands, hard, on the windshield. The warriors approach again, but stop when they hear sirens drawing closer. They look around, not quite sure where they are.

INT. Manor - Sitting Room - Night

Chris is pacing back and forth, constantly checking his watch, worried for a lot of reasons. A growling sound draws his attention to the base of the stairs where the dog is snarling at him. "What'd I ever do to you? Go on, take a hike." He waves his hand and sends a baby rattle off a table, crashing to the floor in front of Oscar. The dog turns tail and heads back up the stairs.

INT. Manor - Living Room - Night

Paige, Phoebe and Leo orb in, Chris comes to greet them, "Geez, it's about time, I was starting to get worr…wait, where's Piper?" Leo goes after him, decking Chris in the jaw and throwing him against the wall. Phoebe: "Leo?" He grabs Chris again. Leo: "Why'd you do it?" Chris: "Do what?" Leo throws him onto a chair, and the chair tips over. Paige: "Leo! Stop it!" Chris scrambles to his feet and tries to orb away, but Leo catches him mid-orb and throws him into the armoire, shattering it. Leo charges again, but empathically affected Phoebe steps up and stops Leo with a hand on his chest. "Alright, enough! You're killing me with all this hostility." A woozy Chris slowly gathers himself to his feet. Paige challenges Leo, "What's the matter with you, Leo? Been playing gladiator too long?" Leo: "You didn't tell them, did you?" Phoebe: "Tell us what?" Leo: "That he was the last person to see me - that right afterwards, I ended up mysteriously trapped in Valhalla." Chris: "Ok, so that makes me responsible, is that what you're saying?" Leo, pissed again, starts to charge after the liar, but Paige stops him this time, "Wait, woah, why in the world would Chris want to do that to you?" Leo: "Why else? To get rid of me." Paige: "That doesn't make any sense…" Leo: "Doesn't it? He manipulated things to force me into becoming an Elder, to force me out of the house, didn't he?" Chris: "Hello! - So you could save the world!!" Phoebe: "Leo, listen to me, I know how upset you are - and by 'know' I mean I literally know - but I'm telling you, you're way off base on this one. Chris has been the model Whitelighter ever since you left, he's done nothing but good." Paige: "If anything, with all the demons he's sent us after, he's done TOO much good." Phoebe: "Plus, if it wasn't for him, we might never have been able to rescue you. He's the one who made us Valkyries, got us close enough to even get to you." Leo, surprised at that, looks to Chris, who mocks him with, "You're welcome." Leo's not buying it, "Where'd you get the pendants from?" Chris: "Boy, there's gratitude for you, huh?" Leo tells them he'll drop it for now, but as long as he's there, he can't resist, "Where's Wyatt, can I see him?" Paige tells him he's at Sheila's, which is where he needs to be until they can figure out how to rescue Piper. Phoebe: "Which won't be easy since she doesn't even want to be rescued." Paige: "Well, one thing's for sure, however we save her, it's going to have to be as witches, not Valkyries." With that, they both yank off their pendants and morph back into the clothes they had on before. Paige: "Book of Shadows?" Phoebe: "Let's go." The girls exit, leaving Chris without his 'bodyguards' and Leo still glaring at him.

INT. Valhalla - Fighting Ring - Eternal Day

Valkyrie-Piper, seated in one of the chairs, cooperates fully with Mist, who, eyes closed in concentration, scans her head and heart with open palms. Then, finished, Mist opens her eyes and somewhat confused, turns to Freyja and Kara. Freyja: "Well?" Mist: "She is Valkyrie, but it's not pure. Deep inside, I sensed…" Kara, suspecting, "Witch?" Mist agrees and Kara tells Freyja she told her Piper came with the other witches, so she had to be one of them. Mist, defending Piper: "But it's faint, I could barely read it." Kara: "Still, she helped them escape with the warrior, didn't she?" Mist: "But, she didn't escape with them." Kara suggests they left her behind and Mist asks why they would. Kara: "Because they would have been caught if they hadn't." Freyja, "Either way, she can be of value to us. She wouldn't be the first witch to convert. And if she has, then we've gained a powerful sister. But if it's just a spell and she's not truly one of us, we'll use her to lead us to the other two. Afterall…." She seductively takes Piper's willing hands, helping her to her feet, "…we can't have anybody knowing how to find us and risking what we do, now can we?" Piper just stares at Freyja, not resisting. Kara asks about the warriors who followed the others, wondering if Freyja's worried about exposure. Freyja informs her that they've been well-trained and they'll know how to avoid it…then adds that hopefully they'll be able to find the witches and take care of the 'problem'. Testing, she asks Piper, "What do you think about that?" Piper: "I think…if they don't, we will." Freyja smiles at Piper's response.

EXT. Seedy Part of Town - Night

In a crime-ridden area where only 'tough guys' hang out during the day and only fools go at night, an armed gangbanger drops into frame…a warrior's knife embedded in his chest. Then we see the Magi warrior snapping another ganbanger's neck. The Magi looks around, ready for more, and we see the Samurai warrior standing over two more bodies.

INT. Manor - Attic - Night

Paige is at the Book, working on another spell while Chris and Leo throw out ideas. Phoebe's nursing her psychic headache, trying to stay as far away from everyone as possible. Chris tells them that it's not like they don't know where Piper is, he doesn't understand why they can't just storm the place and grab her. Leo tells him because they'd be expecting it, it would be suicide. Chris: "We got you out safely, didn't we?" Leo: "But it cost us Piper." Chris: "Not a good trade, you're right." Phoebe, fed up, "Would you guys knock it off, please?! I'm still reeling from Piper's feelings, I don't need this." Chris says he's sorry and Phoebe asks Paige how it's going. Paige informs her that she's almost done, but she's not quite sure how reversing the memory spell is going to help. Phoebe: "Piper wants to believe she's a Valkyrie because it hurts too much to be herself. WAY to much, believe me, I honestly thought I was going to pass out." Leo looks down, guilty. Chris: "Well, then believing she's a Valkyrie is the perfect option. To serve the Greater Good, they're always in control, and they don't have to deal with pain or loss." Phoebe tells him that's why they need to make Piper believe she's Piper again because if they don't get her back mentally, it won't matter if they get her back physically. Paige: "Fine, except that Piper wasn't exactly back before I cast the spell, either." Leo: "Why, what do you mean?" Paige: "I think that little magical whammy you put on her backfired, that's what." Phoebe: "You see, after you left, Piper got really…" Paige, finishing the thought, "Chipper. Incessantly, increasingly, and irritatingly chipper." Phoebe, confirming, "What she said." Leo, feeling even worse, tries to figure out how that could have happened, "I designed it to make her feel less pain at first…with me not around to pull back on it, it must have just keep making her happier and happier…" Paige; "No, shipper." Chris, to Leo: "Way to go." Phoebe, warning, "Chris…" Chris, feigning innocence, "What?" Phoebe, touching her temples, "I swear, this new power's gonna drive me crazy." Leo tells her she'll get the hang of it and Phoebe asks if he's sure, "Because I remember it almost destroyed Prue that time when she became an Empath." Leo: "But she wasn't meant to become one, you are. Maybe because of Piper it's come sooner than it was supposed to, but you can handle it, I know you can." Phoebe says she just wishes she knew how to turn it on and off. Paige: "Bright side? At least you'll get to find out how Jason REALLY feels about you now." Phoebe: "That's great, but what if it's not good news?" Paige: "Then you can break up with him before he breaks up with you." Then, she announces, "Spell's done." The doorbell rings, causing Oscar to come out of hiding, running past them and barking. Leo: "Wait, you got a dog?" Paige, "No, I got a career." Chris, "Sore subject, don't ask." They head off to answer the door.

INT. Manor - Foyer/Front Door - Night

They open the door and are shocked to find Darryl there, frazzled, hurting, his face still bloodied. "Darryl, oh my God…what happened?" Darryl: "I think I just got attacked by Attila the Hun."

EXT. Valhalla - Jungle - Eternal Day

Freyja, Mist and Piper walk while Kara approaches with urgent news, "Freyja, I need to speak with you…in private." Freyja informs her that she can speak freely. Kara, reluctant, "The warriors who followed the witches - they've killed civilians." Mist, alarmed, "What?" Freyja, concerned, "Innocents?" Kara tells them she doesn't know, but they've turned off their locators. Freyja reacting gravely to that, with Piper not understanding, "What does that mean?" Kara refuses to answer her, but Mist does, "They're trained to do that…when the decisive battle between Good and Evil begins." Kara tells them they have to stop the other warriors. Mist asks how they can, they have no way of finding them in the city. Piper, remembering, "I'm from the city…I can help you find them." Kara reacts skeptically, but Freyja, welcoming it, smiles, pleased. Off Piper, glad to be of service…

END OF ACT FIVE

ACT SIX

INT. Manor - Sitting Room - Day

Morris, on the sofa, eyes closed, as Leo's healing glow works it's magic, finally done, Leo: "Feeling better?" Darryl: "Yeah, thanks. Glad to have you back, Leo." Leo: "Thanks for helping to get me back." Chris: "Aw, don't mention it." Leo shoots him a look and Phoebe, passing Chris, smacks him as she asks Darryl, "How long after we left did the warriors show up?" Darryl: "Not long, a couple of seconds, maybe." Phoebe, stating the obvious, "They must have followed us from Valhalla." Paige: "Which means they're after us, great…" Darryl: "Except they didn't hang around long enough to ask me where to find you. I mean, granted, I was looking through swollen eyes, but from what I saw, they looked…confused, lost." Chris: "And they just took off?" Darryl: "Yeah, they sirens seemed to spook them. Good thing, too, otherwise…" Phoebe: "We never should have put you in that situation, Darryl, we should have come up with another way." Darryl: "Forget it, it worked out." Chris: "For you, maybe, but what about the next poor guy those warriors run into? They're trained killers." Paige: "But only to kill evil." Chris, meaning Morris: "He's not evil." Leo: "Chris is right, it's not always black and white in this world. The warriors may not always be able to tell the difference between Good and Evil." Off Chris's look, "What?" Chris: "Oh, nothing, I'm just still stuck on the 'Chris is right' part." Phoebe: "ANYWAY…what do we do?" Leo tells them they have to find the warriors…fast. Darryl says it shouldn't be too hard, "Those guys are gonna stand out, even in San Francisco." Leo: "That's why we have to move fast - if they get exposed, so do the Valkyries." Paige: "Boy, you sure seem awfully forgiving, considering what the Valkyries did to you." Leo: "They still have a noble purpose to perform, keeping their secret is key to them fulfilling it. Besides - it's not the Valkyries' fault I ended up there." Chris: "Which brings us back to the warriors." Phoebe: "And Piper, let's try not to forget about her." Leo tells them they may be better off splitting up and tells Darryl that he should go back to the station since it shouldn't be long before they "pop up on the radar screen in a big way." Darryl, looking at his pager, "Office is paging me anyway." As he starts out, Leo calls after him, "Make sure you're the first cop on scene, too, we might need you to buy us some time." Darryl, exiting, "Got it." Phoebe: "Maybe I should go to the newspaper and do the same." Leo: "Good, and Paige, you should…" Paige, stands with Oscar, "Take Oscar back home before I get fired?" Leo: "You're kidding, right?" Paige: "No, I'm not. I promised the Temp. Agency I'd try again in the morning, and it's morning. Look, things have changed since you've been away, Leo, and one of them is I'm determined to have a life again, separate from just being a witch." Leo: "Fine, but right NOW?" Paige tells him she wrote the reversal spell and they can't use it until they get Piper…and…since they can't get Piper right now, because they don't know how, she tells them she's only and orb away and exits. Leo tries to get her back but Phoebe tells him to let her go, "It may seem silly to you, but this is important to her, I know." Chris: "See? It helps to be an Empath." Phoebe: "No, it helps to be a sister. And on that subject, if we don't come up with another way soon, we might have to reconsider going back to Valhalla for Piper." Leo, admitting, "She's right." He grabs Chris, "Let's go." Chris, concerned, "But…" He orbs out with Chris before he can finish his question.

INT. Valhalla - Fighting Ring - Eternal Day

Two warriors, walking the perimeter of the ring, react as they see two silhouetted figures entering through the cave. Braveheart Warrior reflexively reaches for the handle of his sword, but doesn't draw it, "Who goes there?" The figures step out to reveal it's Ch

TEASER
INT. Manor - Main Hall - Night (Saturday)

It's pouring rain outside, the house is empty…until the sisters' frantically orb in with Piper holding Wyatt. Paige: "We don't have much time, they'll follow us." Phoebe jumps in, "Then how are we going to stop them?" Piper, holding Wyatt close, "We can't just let them take Wyatt - we have to think of something." Before they can think of anything else, Paige sees familiar sparkling lights beginning to form, "Uh, guys? Incoming!" Out of the lights we see them materialize. Two bald men dressed starkly in all white suits. These are The Cleaners. Cleaner 1 tells them it's pointless to run. Piper: "You can't have him!" She gestures to blow him up but he holds out his hand and catches a mini-explosion. Cleaner 1 speaks again, "You're only delaying the inevitable, I'm afraid. Now, if you don't mind, we have a lot of cleaning to do." He gestures as Cleaner Two simultaneously holds out his hands and Wyatt dematerializes out of Piper's arms and into his. Piper, "NO!" They all start to charge, but Cleaner 1 easily waves his hand - sending the girls sprawling backwards onto the floor. Not waiting, Piper cries out, "LEO! HELP!" Leo orbs in, sees Piper and Piper yells for Wyatt. Cleaner 1: "An Elder. Good, perhaps you can explain it to her." Phoebe: "Explain? Explain what?" Piper tells Leo not to just stand there, to do something. Leo, knowing, "I…can't. Nobody can…" Paige, "What the hell's that supposed to mean?" Piper turns to the Cleaners, crying, begging, "Please, he's just a baby, it won't happen again, I swear - I won't let it happen again!" Cleaner 2: "Sorry, we can't take that risk." Cleaner 1: "Don't worry, you won't remember any of this anyway." He waves his hand and the room is suddenly filled with sparkling light and we cut to:

INT. Manor - Piper's Bedroom/Nursery - Night (Tuesday)

We see the nursery as it morphs back into a closet. As it does, the camera finds a picture on the wall. The girls with Wyatt in a stroller, only Wyatt and the stroller vanish from the picture before our eyes. Then, we return to:

INT. Manor - Sitting Room - Night (Tuesday)

The sparkling light dissipates and the Cleaners, still holding Wyatt, vanish. The girls and Leo are left behind in anguish, then everyone calms. They're all disoriented. Piper and Leo are surprised to find themselves next to each other. "What are you doing here?" Leo: "I don't know…I…better go…" With that, he orbs out but Piper appears unconcerned. She shakes her head like she's trying to wake up as the sisters look at each other, confused. Paige asks what they were talking about. Piper says she doesn't know. Phoebe, "Well, I don't know about you guys, but I'm beat. I'm going to bed." Paige agrees she's tired, to and heads for the stairs, but turns back to see Piper. "You okay?" Piper: "Yeah, I just feel like I'm forgetting something." Phoebe: "Like what?" Piper: "I don't know…how important could it be, right?" As Paige and Phoebe leave, she pauses to look around…did she forget something? After a beat - nah. She turns off the light and head upstairs with her sisters.

FADE OUT

END OF TEASER


ACT I

INT. Manor - Kitchen - Day (Wednesday Morning)

It's a sunny day and the birds are chirping. The TV is on in the background as a local weatherman gives the morning forecast. Piper is preparing a breakfast tray as Paige enters, a bit miffed, holding a blouse, "Any infomercials for stain removers on there?" Piper turns off the TV, "You have a stain that needs removal?" Paige, showing her the blouse, "I must have spilled coffee on my blouse yesterday without realizing it. So, that clueless girl walking around the office with the stain on her blouse? That'd be me." Piper as if she's tried baking soda. Paige tells her it's dry clean only and the bill's going to eat up half a day's pay. Piper: "The pay's lousy, your boss is a sexist pig - the job sucks, Paige. Why don't you quit? It's just a temp. job anyway." Paige: "I know, but if I really want my own life, away from magic, I can't just bail when things start to suck. Look at my dog-walking job. I stuck around there and I ended up helping someone." Piper tells her that was once and asks what the odds are of it happening again. Paige says she doesn't know, "But if it doesn't work out here, hey - 'sometimes you gotta ride a lot of horses on the merry-go-round before you find what you're looking for'." Piper, almost unconsciously, "Carousel." Paige, "Sorry?" Piper explains, "A merry-go-round has lots of animals. Carousels only have horses." She sees Paige staring at her, "What?" Paige asks her how she knows. Piper's curious herself, "I have no idea…wait, do you hear that?" Paige, "Head what? A carousel?" Piper strains to listen again and hears nothing, "Now it's gone." Paige asks her what's gone. Piper: "Okay, I know this is going to sound crazy…" Paige: "Because your whole 'carousel' thing was so normal?" Piper: "I thought I head a baby…" Paige: "A baby around here? You ARE crazy." Then, from the basement, we hear, "Piper?", as Phoebe calls up. Paige, "Okay, wait - now I think I heard something that time…" Piper: "Oh, be quiet." Then she calls to Phoebe that she's on her way. She puts the finishing touches on the food she's preparing as Paige gives her a look, "How long is she going to stay down there, anyway?" Piper: "Long enough to be sure she doesn't shove her tongue down the throat of another delivery guy." Phoebe, calling again, "I heard that!!" Piper, carrying the tray of food, and Paige head down the steps.

INT. Manor - Basement - Day (Wednesday Morning)


Phoebe has a desk set up down there, with a noticeable Band-Aid on her forehead, "And for your information, we're very lucky he didn't sue me fore sexual harassment." Paige asks why he'd sue since Phoebe was channeling HIS emotions. Phoebe tells her that's not the point, the point is that she has to figure out how her new power works or resign herself to living the life of a shut in. Piper and Paige are coming closer and Phoebe notices, "Stop right there, behind that yellow line!" They look down, sure enough, there's a yellow line at the base of the stairs and they stop behind it. Phoebe: "Any closer and I might channel what you're feeling." Piper: "So, what, you want me to toss you your breakfast?" Paige, "Hey, what happened to your head?" Phoebe touches her forehead, "This? I don't know, I'm so scattered, I must have bumped it or something." Then she asks if either of them are feeling any strong emotions and once she's pretty sure they're not, she tells them they may approach. Paige, "Gee, thanks…" As they get closer, Phoebe picks up on, "Woah, wait a minute, someone's feeling insecure." She zeros in on Piper, "What? I just feel a little off this morning, that's all. Stop giving me that look." She puts the tray down. Phoebe: "Ooh, you cut the crusts off the toast, too." Then she studies the tray…."And cut up the eggs into tiny little pieces…and what's this, apple sauce…and a glass of milk? Piper, I'm not in second grade." Piper, "Well, I don't know - I just thought you'd want milk for strong bones…" Paige, "What's up with you, lady? First you're all about carousels, then you're hearing babies, now 'milk for strong bones'?" Phoebe, "You were hearing babies?" Piper tells her she's not sure what's going on and before they can discuss things any further, Phoebe's cell rings. We hear only snippets of the conversation on Phoebe's end, "Hello Elise! How'd you like the…What? What do you mean? But, I can't come in I'm sick…Yesterday? I didn't come in yesterday…I did?…Okay…I'll be right there." Paige asks what the call was about. Phoebe says she has no idea and that Elise told her to get in there ASAP or she's out of a job. Piper, "You job? Did she say why??" Phoebe says she only said something about yesterday. Paige tells her she's going to have to brave the big, bad world, then asks if she wants a ride. Phoebe says she'll drive so she can get in and out of there fast. As her and Paige head up the stairs, Piper calls to them, "Hey, don't forget your jackets, it might rain…" Phoebe, "Will you stop mothering us, already?" They leave with Piper wondering what is going on with herself.

INT. Brokerage - Reception Area - Day (Wednesday)

First, all we see is a phone, lights blinking, then we see Paige at a desk, headset on, juggling calls and trying to make the best of things. She's constantly putting people on hold until she spots a woman carrying a box rushing by her. She's been crying and Paige recognizes her. Covering the microphone, "Flo! What happened?" The woman turns and tells Paige she just got fired. Paige, "What?" then she turns to the phones, "Call back later!", and hangs up. Flo starts to exit and Paige jumps up to go after her, getting caught by the headset. She struggles to get free and rips the phone out of the jack, and catches up to Flo. "Hey, tell me what happened to you. Maybe I can help." Flo: "You ought to know." Paige: "Flo, look, I know you're angry and I want to help, believe me. But I can't unless you tell me how you got fired." Flo relents, telling her "Mr. Stewick gets me in his office and says either I go out with him again, or he'll fire me. I didn't take his offer, so he told me to pack up. My word against his…" Paige: "Why didn't you ask someone to go in there with you?" Flo: "I did. I asked YOU - yesterday. But I obviously don't rank high enough in importance for you to remember." She starts out again, but Paige grabs her, confused, "Wait, Flo - seriously, I would remember promising that…" Mr. Stewick approaches, "Excuse me, do you mind? Back to the phone, Francine." "My name's Paige!" Mr. Stewick: "Whatever. You're a temp. You want to help people? Sit your pretty ass back down and answer the damn phones." Before she can respond, he's gone as quickly as he came.

INT. Bay Mirror - Bullpen - Day (Wednesday)

Phoebe enters, keeping her distance from others as she goes, but she's getting a lot of angry stares. More than that, she's noticing that a lot of her co-workers are sporting similar bandages, others seem less injured with some minor cuts and bruises. As she passes one guy in particular, Frank…with visible cuts and bruises on his cheek…he pulls her aside. "I don't care what she says to you Phoebe - I've always wanted to do what you did. And man it was worth it to see you do it!" Phoebe, "Right, yeah, um, thanks for your support there, Frank…" She continues to the entrance to Elise's office just as Elise appears at the door, looking more stern than usual. To top things off, she's got a very prominent black eye. She beckons Phoebe in wordlessly. Phoebe asks what's going on and Elise cuts her off with "Sit." Phoebe drops into a chair as Elise continues, "I wanted to talk to you alone before I involved my lawyers…" Phoebe: "What do you mean, lawyers?" Elise tells her to let her finish, "Now, I'm not going to pretend that the only reason you're still working here is that you're an asset to the paper. But what the hell came over you yesterday?" Phoebe, "Yesterday?" Elise informs her that there are actually a few more workers at home because of their injuries, "Jackie's got a broken nose, not to mention…" she points to her eye, Phoebe: "Ow, that must have hurt." Elise: "It's all I can do to keep lawsuits from pouring in. If there were perhaps a reasonable explanation for your behavior yesterday…" Phoebe: "Elise, I seriously have no idea what you're talking about!" Elise, "Phoebe…" She puts her hand on Phoebe's and Phoebe reacts, having a vision….

Phoebe's Vision: INT. Bay Mirror - Bullpen - Day (Tuesday)

The entire place has erupted into an enormous free-for-all brawl. Phoebe's right in the middle of it, punching and kicking anyone who comes near her. Then, as abruptly as it started, the vision ends and Phoebe comes out of it with a start. Elise quickly steps back, nervous. But Phoebe speaks, almost to herself, "Oh no…Uh, I…I gotta go." She fakes a cough. "Feeling a lot worse all of a sudden." She quickly exits.

EXT. Corner Market - Day (Wednesday)

Piper's carrying a bag of groceries to the back of her Jeep. She opens it and puts the bags inside and pauses…wondering yet again if she's forgotten something. She checks her list, looking into the bag…stopping as she hears the sound of a baby crying. She looks back towards the store and sees a single dad, holding a squirming infant in one arm and a bag of groceries in the other. The Dad: "Sweetheart, please, don't cry - what's the matter? Are you hungry? Do you need a bottle?" In trying to calm the baby, he drops a pack of diapers and Piper moves towards him, almost instinctively…"Here, hold her at an angle, and make a shushing noise, like this…" She adjusts his hold on his baby and makes a shushing sound. The Dad is only too grateful to have the help of someone who seems to know what they're doing as the baby stops fussing and seems to smile. Dad: "Wow - that's amazing. How'd you get her to calm down so fast?" Piper: "Shushing is supposed to remind them of the womb." She picks up the diapers. Dad: "Amazing. You must be a terrific mom to know all this stuff." Piper: "Actually, I don't have kids." Dad: "Really? I guess I just assumed…" Piper: "I mean, I always wanted them - I baby-sat a lot, but…" There's an awkward pause as Piper looks away, embarrassed, "I better go." She starts off, but the Dad stops her, "Uh…my diapers?" Piper is surprised to find that, indeed, she still has them. "Oh, sorry…" she hands them back to the man and watches him play with his baby as she walks back to her Jeep.

INT. Manor - Piper's Bedroom - Day (Wednesday)

Leo, his face similarly confused, as he stares into the closet, trying to figure out what drew him there. Just then, Piper appears in the doorway, surprised, "Leo?" Leo snaps out of his trance, "Piper, what are you doing here?" Piper: "What am I doing here?!" Leo: "No, I mean, that's not what I meant…Look, I know I shouldn't be here…" Piper: "No, you shouldn't. I asked you to stay away for a good reason, Leo, so I could learn to live without you…" Leo: "I know…" Piper: "And orbing in here whenever you want doesn't make it any easier on me. You can't just do that, not anymore." Leo: "You're right, I'm sorry, it's just that…" He turns back to the closet as if haunted by something. Piper, haunted herself, finds it more than a little curious he's looking at the closet. Then, he dismisses it, "Nevermind, I should go…" Piper, recognizing the confusion on his face, "What were you going to say?" Leo: "It's nothing…" Piper, "Wait…Just out of curiosity, you're not…hearing things by any chance, are you?" Leo turns back to her, surprised, intrigued, "Hearing things?" Piper, "Yeah, you know, like…this'll sound silly, but a couple of times today, I swear I heard…" Leo, "A baby…?" Piper: "You, too?" Leo: "Pretty strange, huh? Think it means anything?" Piper admits she doesn't know, "Maybe just that we both regret not having children." Piper looks at him, they share a moment, then…honestly wondering…"Why didn't we?" Leo: "I don't know, we wanted to…I guess it just wasn't meant to be." Piper looks back at the closet as if imagining another destiny for them. Then, their moment is interrupted by, Phoebe, in the attic, "Piper? We need you upstairs!" Piper calls up to let her know she'll be there in a minute then turns to Leo, telling him he better go. Leo: "But what if you need help? What if there's a demon?" Piper: "You're not our Whitelighter anymore, Leo. Chris is. That's his job." Leo: Except, he's busy. I've got him looking around for whoever banished me to Valhalla." Piper tells him that they'll just have to handle it alone, then. She holds his look for a beat, then exits leaving him feeling like he doesn't belong.

INT. Manor - Attic - Day (Wednesday)

Paige and Phoebe are in the middle of a heated discussion as Piper enters. Paige: "So, you're saying that you started a riot at work, only you don't remember?" Phoebe: "That's exactly what I'm saying." She points to the Band-Aid, "That's how I must have gotten this. And that's why Elise was so mad at me." Paige: "I thought she was just like that." Phoebe "Well, she is, kinda." She turns to Piper, "Hey, you okay? I'm getting this really emotional vibe from you." Piper steps away from Phoebe, not wanting to explain. "I'm fine…what I don't understand is: if you don't remember the riot, how do you know you're the one who started it?" Phoebe tells her of the vision and the fact she can usually tell when they're in the past and she knows that her vision happened the day before. Paige asks what she thinks happened and Phoebe admit she has no idea, "You know how cautious I've been after what happened with the delivery guy. So how the hell did I turn the Bay Mirror into the Jerry Springer show?" Paige: "Add that to the pile of missing memories." Piper: "Wait, both of you have moments you can't remember from yesterday?" Phoebe: "Yeah, and I might've thought that forgetting the riot was just my new powers acting up, if not for Paige's blouse." Paige, "Or this whole thing with Flo, this girl at work." She eyes Piper, "What did you forget?" Piper; "Nothing specific, I mean, I remember getting up, going downstairs…but the rest is kind of a blur." Paige: "Well, that settles it." Piper: "Settles what?" Phoebe: "If five years of fighting demons have taught us anything, it's pay attention when we're all feeling the same weird feelings." Paige: "Someone's been messing with us. Making us forget." Piper: "But these all seem like such random moments to forget. What's the connection?" Paige tells her there's only one way to find out and that she's already written a spell, "To Fill in the Blanks". Phoebe: "I know you might be reluctant after what happened last time we cast a spell on your memory…" Piper tells her she's right, they need to do this spell, "I feel totally off, and I know that's not normal. Something's going on. The only thing we don't know is what." Paige pulls out the spell and reads…."Moments lost make witches wonder, Warlock's plot of demon's plunder? If this is not a prank, help us to fill in the blanks." The girls stay still as the room begins to swirl for a while. We see the day rewinding outside then back into the manor, the spinning finally stops. They're wearing the same clothes as in the teaser, but Paige is missing the coffee stain and Phoebe doesn't have her bandage on. They look out, it's raining, then they turn to each other, confused and disoriented. Piper, stating the obvious, "It's raining." Paige: "Phoebe, your Band-Aid's gone." She feels her forehead, "And you're wearing that same blouse…" Paige looks down, "Except, where's the coffee stain?" Just then, they hear a baby crying. Piper's face shows it all flooding back at once, "Oh my god!!!" She can't run out fast enough. Phoebe and Paige share a look and quickly follow her.

INT. Manor - Conservatory - Day (Tuesday Morning)

Where Phoebe and Paige come downstairs to find Piper picking up Wyatt - her eyes teary. The playpen has returned, as has everything else. Piper turns to her sisters, voice full of emotion, "I remember now…I'm a mom!"

END OF ACT I

ACT II

INT. Manor - Conservatory - Day (Tuesday Morning)

It's still raining, Paige is seated, and Piper's trying to comfort a squirming Wyatt. Phoebe slams a newspaper down on the table, "It's yesterday." Paige: "The spell didn't return our memories, it just rewound the day." Phoebe asks why. Paige tells her to help remember what "somebody obviously wants us to forget." Piper: "But how could I have possibly forgotten about Wyatt? What could have happened to cause something like that?" Phoebe: "It wasn't just you, Piper, we were all made to forget about him" Paige: "Not to mention a whole bunch of other things." Piper: "But I'm his mother! It's my job to protect him - and I failed!" Paige tells her that's ridiculous and she didn't fail. Wyatt starts crying and Piper tries to calm him down but he won't settle. Phoebe: "You're just feeling a little insecure for some reason…" Suddenly, Phoebe starts crying just like Wyatt, "And Wyatt's feeling really, really sad. Poor little guy." Her sisters are staring at her, "No you know why I hole myself up in the basement all the time. I'm a wreck!" Paige tells them they're against the clock and they need to talk. Phoebe agrees as Piper puts Wyatt down in his play pen, but it only upsets him more. She grabs a stuffed animal and waves it at him, but he (and Phoebe) keep crying. Piper asks Pheebs for a little help, "We - I mean, he, hates that toy. It's all worn out and smelly and yucky…" Piper: "Okay, so what does he want?" Sniffling, she points, "That." All eyes turn to the TV, "Oh great, I am a failure." Paige; "Piper, please - we've got worse problems right now than media influence." Piper turns the TV on and switches the channel to a kiddie program. Wyatt suddenly goes quiet and Phoebe stops bawling as well. Piper tells him that she's just going to be in the other room and we see them head off as we're still seeing Wyatt. He blinks and - click! - the TV changes channels. He smiles, blinks again, and it's a different channel. He finally stops on a show featuring a pair of dragons and Wyatt giggles.

INT. Manor - Living Room - Day (Tuesday Morning)

Piper enters, catching up, in time to hear Paige, "We remember everything that happened before today, don't we?" Phoebe confirms they do. Paige: "And we know we're not going to remember everything unless we do something about it, right?" Phoebe: "Don't be impatient with me, Paige, I'm dealing with enough feelings as it is at the moment." Paige: "All I'm saying is that the missing link - whatever cause us to forget - must be what happens next. Which means we have to re-live the day, see where it leads." Piper tells them if they're not careful, it could lea them right back to where they started, without Wyatt. Paige tells her that this time, they'll know something's going to happen to him, so all they have to do is open their eyes, look for clues, and stop it. Phoebe tells her it's easier said than done, since so many strange things happened, "how will we know what's important and what's not?" Paige tells her it's all important because it's all somehow connected to Wyatt, they just have to figure out what the connection is. Piper steps in, "So, what, you've gotta go to your temp job? Wait to get a coffee stain?" Paige: "Yeah, exactly. So much for my life outside of magic. Now, Phoebe's gotta go to her work and…" Phoebe: "Start a riot? Cut my forehead? Risk my career? I don't think so." Paige tells her she has to, it's the only way to save Wyatt.

INT. Manor - Conservatory - Day (Tuesday Morning)

Wyatt's still watching the two dragons flying around on the television. One breathes fire and he giggles at the again. He blinks one more time…and this time, magic orbs form around the TV and one of the dragons vanishes. Orbs shoot out of the TV, through the conservatory window, and we see the dragon take form outside. Wyatt giggles with delight as the dragon appraises him, nudging the conservatory doors open with its snout. One of the doors bumps the side table and the dragon takes off into the rain as a vase on the table crashes to the floor. Piper stops in mid-sentence, hearing the crash and Wyatt giggling. She exists the living room, followed closely by her sisters. They find Wyatt still safely in his play pen, still laughing at the open doors, one of which bangs against the table again, pushed by the wind and rain. Piper: "How'd those open?" Phoebe tells her it must have been the wind and Piper tells her they were locked. Paige, picking up a fragment from the broken vase, tells them that it could be a clue and to remember it. Paige closes the doors and asks Piper if she's going to be okay by herself. Piper asks if she has a choice. Phoebe: "Wanna switch with me?" Paige playfully smacks Phoebe then tells them they have to go, calling back to Piper to call them the minute anything weird happens. They exit as Wyatt's still giggling at the remaining dragon on TV. Piper finally notices…wondering what Wyatt's watching.

INT. Bay Mirror - Bullpen - Day (Tuesday)

Phoebe enters, in her raincoat, nervously looking around, unsure which direction the riot's going to come from when her assistant runs up to her, "Phoebe, thank God you came in - the server crashed and we lost your column. Do you have a hard copy?" Phoebe tells her she'll check her office. As she starts back, Elise and Frank burst out from a door across the room, furious and shouting. "It's not WHAT you did, Elise, it's HOW you did it!" Elise: "Well, lucky I'm the editor, so I don't have to care what you think." Frank turns around and bumps into Phoebe. Elise calls after him, "Don't think we're done here, mister!" Feeling the brunt of Frank's emotions, Phoebe balls her hand into a fist and decks Elise, who staggers backwards, crashing into a mailman. Phoebe, shaking herself out of it, doesn't know what to say. Frank, meanwhile, is laughing. Loving the fact that Phoebe had the guts to punch Elise. Unfortunately, the mailman thinks Frank is laughing at him. "Think that's funny, huh?" With that, the mailman hauls off and punches Frank and the riot begins. Phoebe's yelling at everyone, telling them to stop, trying in vain to halt what's happening before it gets worse. Two reporters slam into Phoebe, knocking her into a wall where she smacks her head. Checking it with her fingers, seeing the blood…"Ouch".

INT. Brokerage - Reception Area - Day (Tuesday)

Paige, on her break, stands off to the side with Flo. She's telling her to stay calm and trying to get to the truth of the matter. Flo says it's her fault, "I shouldn't have done it in the first place…" Paige: "Done what?" Flo: "Oh, Mr., Stewick's been asking me out since I got here…" Paige, remembering, "So, you went out on a date with him…" Flo: "If you could call it a date. He tried to grab my ass, I threw a drink in his face. I've avoided him ever since." Paige asks what happened next, Flo tells her that he wants to meet her in the morning and she's worried about losing her job. Then, it comes, "Maybe, you could come with me?" Paige: "Absolutely…" Then wonders why she'd forget that promise out loud. Flo, hearing it, "Forget what?" Before Paige can respond, there's a noise from outside. Behind Paige, Wyatt's dragon suddenly flies by the window, startling a co-worker who's sipping coffee. He throws his mug as Paige turns around…splash down! Hot coffee all over the front of her blouse. Paige: "Oww!!"…then, it hits her…"Coffee!" She doesn't even pause to be mad as she turns to the co-worker who's thinking she's mad at him…"I'm sorry - just, something…weird flew by the window…" Paige: "Something - what kind of something? Spit it out!" The co-worker, not wanting to admit it, "Well, to be honest with you, it looked a little like…a dragon." Paige looks out, seeing nothing at first, then an explosion in the distance, "This is not good." She hurries off past Flo.

INT. Manor - Conservatory - Day (Tuesday)

Piper's flipping through the Book while Wyatt tries to get her attention. She's ignoring him and he starts to cry. Piper rushes over to him, feeling desperate, "Wyatt, please - Mommy's got to study to make sure nothing happens to you…" She holds up the stuffed animal before remembering, "Oh, right, you hate this…" then, to herself, "Did I forget how to be a Mommy, too?" She picks him up, making the shushing sounds again and rocks him back and forth. Suddenly, orbs form around them, "Wyatt - wait, what are you going?" She's cut off as they orb out.

INT. Bay Mirror - Outer Corridor - Day (Tuesday)

Paige hurries down the hall, then pushes through the swinging door to reveal the mayhem, "Oh my God…" A reporter gets tossed through a partition window, shattering it as Paige spots Phoebe…cut on her forehead…as she's grabbing a lamp, getting ready to strike the reporter. Paige: "Phoebe, don't!" Phoebe strikes him anyway, knocking him to the ground as Paige pulls her away, "Phoebe, what are you doing? Snap out of it!" Phoebe reacts, coming out of it, "Oh, no, did I do all this?" Paige: "Nevermind, we gotta get out of here. I think I've figured out what we're supposed to remember." Phoebe tells her she might be happier forgetting. Paige, no other way than to say it, "There's a dragon loose in the city, Phoebe!" Before Phoebe can react, Frank…overhearing…pauses in mid-battle long enough to react, "Did you say 'dragon'…?" Phoebe turns to him just as a copy editor slugs him in the jaw, knocking him out of frame. Paige grabs Phoebe and tells her they have to go.

EXT. Tunnel - Day (Tuesday)

Piper stands at the mouth of a long tunnel, "Okay, sweetie, you're making Mommy very nervous - what are we doing here? What is it?" Wyatt just coos as Piper's cell rings. She checks the caller ID and answers it. "What's up?" She laughs…"Where am I? Standing outside of the Presidio tunnel, right where your nephew just orbed me…" Paige and Phoebe orb in right next to her. Paige: "He did what??" Piper, looking around, "Are you out of your mind? Aren't you worried about exposure?" Paige says she is, and that's why they called. Piper: "What do you mean? What're you talking about?" Phoebe: "I think she's talking about THAT!" We hear an explosion and they turn to see down the tunnel. Wyatt's dragon comes roaring through the fire of an exploded car. It breathes fire on another car as it passes, causing that one to explode, too, then it flies out of the tunnel and strafes the ducking sisters with fire before streaking up into the sky and out of view. The girls are stunned, looking at a giggling Wyatt.

END OF ACT II


ACT III

INT. Manor - Conservatory - Day (Tuesday Afternoon)

We see a TV news report, on tape, Kinesha Robinson delivers the news from outside the entrance to the tunnel, which is not a crime scene. In the background, we see the smoke and commotion. Someone shuts off the TV and we see Paige, "Well, as far as clues go, I'd say that's a pretty huge one, wouldn't you?" Piper and Phoebe are watching her, concerned, as Piper finishes applying the Band-Aid to Phoebe's forehead….the same type and position as it was in the teaser. Phoebe, wincing, "Owww" Piper: "Sorry." Phoebe: "It's not my pain I'm feeling, it's yours." Piper, backing off, "Oh, yeah? Then you should be feeling a little irritated right now, too." Phoebe: "Piper, this isn't your fault, why are you blaming yourself?" Piper: "Okay, number one? I haven't actually verbalized guilt yet, so if you don't mind, in the future, let me FEEL before you ANALYZE." Phoebe: "Right…" Piper continues, "And, number two, this is SO my fault because I'm the one who plopped Wyatt down in front of the electronic babysitter in the first place." Phoebe, looking at Paige, "Do you know what she's rambling about?" Paige: "Not a clue." Piper: "You want clues, try this one on for size: Wyatt was watching a TV show about, wait for it, dragons, when you left earlier." Phoebe: "No he wasn't, he was watching a kid's show." Piper: "Well, apparently, he magically changed the channel. Of course, that was before he magically orbed me to the tunnel to find his new friend." Phoebe: "He did all that??" Paige: "Wait, are you saying you think Wyatt actually…conjured a dragon?" Piper, convinced, "Yep, pulled it right out of the old TV." Phoebe: "You must be so proud!" Piper: "Phoebe…IRRITATED!" Phoebe: "Right, sorry." Paige: "Boy, if that's true, that little guy of yours has got some pretty serious powers already." Piper: "Yeah, the kind that unleashes monsters on unsuspecting cities! What's nest, Godzilla? Being a single mom's tough enough, how am I supposed to handle this, too?" Paige, realizing, "At least now we know what happened to our memories - everything connected to the dragon, no matter how remote, obviously got erased. The riot, the coffee stain…" Piper asks, "The question is, by whom?" Phoebe: "Come on, guys - so Wyatt made a little magical mess, big deal. We've dealt with worse, we should be able to find a way to fix this." We hear a voice off screen, "Maybe we can help." They turn to the direction of the sitting room and see them, The Cleaners.

INT. Manor - Sitting Room/Main Hall - Day (Tuesday Afternoon)

The slowly enter to find the Cleaners standing by the main hall. Phoebe asks who they are. Cleaner 1 tells them. Paige: "The Cleaners?" They explain again what they do. Piper, realizing, "You're the ones who are going to take Wyatt." Cleaner 1: "Well, we won't have to, if you can eliminate the exposure risk." Piper: "Exposure? You're here to take away my son, you son of a b****…" She gestures to blow him up, but again, just like before, he catches the mini-explosion in his hand. He speaks again, "I understand your anger, now you need to understand our position. We're a neutral party, we exist only to protect magic. To that end, your son has become - a problem." Piper, miffed, goes to gesture again, but Phoebe stops her, not entirely sure who they're dealing with. Cleaner 1 goes on, "However, based on your past success in covering up your own magic, we've decided to give you a chance…" Cleaner 2: "ONE chance only…" Cleaner 1: "To take care of the problem yourselves, before it gets out of hand." Paige: "And if we can't?" Cleaner 1: "Then we'll have to take care of it for you." Piper, challenging them, "You can't make us forget everything…" Cleaner 1, unfazed, "Can't we? There may be some distant echoes that remain - maybe a sense of déjà vu here and there, but like most people, you'll just pass it off as absentmindedness and move on." Piper: "We're not like most people." Cleaner 1: "Won't matter. Clean it up…" Cleaner 2: "Or we will." With sparkling lights, they vanish, leaving the girls to absorb their warning. Paige: "Well, at least we know who's behind it now - too bad we won't remember." Phoebe: "But we've got the upper hand this time, don't we? We know we're re-living this day, but they obviously don't." Paige: "So? It doesn't help us unless we can figure out how to eliminate Wyatt's dragon." Piper suddenly takes off for the stairs. Phoebe calls to her, and she tells Phoebe to go to the Book and work on the dragon but not to take her eyes off Wyatt. Paige asks where she's going. Piper: "To call a Higher Power." She disappears up the steps.

INT. Manor - Piper's Bedroom - Day (Tuesday Afternoon)

Piper enters with a purpose, slamming the door behind her, and calls, "Leo! Leo, can you hear me? Please, I know I asked you to stay away, but I need you - Wyatt's in trouble…" He orbs in, concerned, "What do you mean, what's wrong?" Piper tells him she doesn't have time to explain and asks him how to stop the Cleaners. Leo: "The Cleaners? Are they after him?" Piper admits it. Leo: "What? What the hell happened?" Piper tells him their son conjured a dragon. Leo: "He did what?? Piper, how could you let that happen?" Piper: "Oh, how could I let that happen? You take off and I'm suddenly responsible for every little thing that happens to him?" Leo tells her this isn't a little thing. Piper; "Yeah, well, where the hell were you, huh? How come you weren't watching his every move from your lofty perch Up There, huh? HUH??" Leo tells her that's not what he meant. Piper: "Well, then don't say it, okay? Because I'm already beating myself up enough about this, and I don't need you beating me up, too." Leo says he's sorry and admits that he's scared. They talk for a few more moments, finally Leo admits there's no way to fight the Cleaners. Piper says she can't do it, she can't lose Wyatt, too. Leo tells her she wasn't put in this position to lose him, he knows there's a way, she just has to find it. Piper: "But…how?" Leo says he doesn't know, but assures her that if anyone can do it, she can and that maybe it's not a magical solution, so much as a maternal one. Piper looks into his eyes, sees something there…they hold the look for a beat.

INT. Manor - Attic - Day (Tuesday Afternoon)

Paige is at the Book while Phoebe's working on a potion. Piper enters, pausing at Wyatt's bassinet. Phoebe, unable to sense her inner feelings, shares a look with Paige then wonders, "Are you okay?" Piper, "I don't know. Ask me again when this is all over." Paige, knowing, asks if Leo was able to help. Piper looks up, surprised they knew, "I'm not sure yet…anything on the dragon?" Paige tells her they must have pre-dated the Book, and they only thing they know is that they need a piece of it to make a vanquishing potion for it. Phoebe: "And, since we don't know all the other ingredients, we just decided to make the most powerful potion we could." She screams and drops what she was doing, grabbing her head in pain. Piper's turn to ask, "Are you okay?" Phoebe: "Yeah, but someone's not. Actually, a lot of people aren't. So much fear out there, and pain…" Piper; "Out where? Are you saying you can sense things from far away now?" Phoebe, recovering, "I don't know, but I can sure sense this - I've never felt so much fear in my life." Paige, wondering, "The dragon??" Piper nods, "Grab the potion." She turns her attention to the bassinet, "Wyatt, sweetie, if you can understand me, I need you to take us to the dragon again, okay? Please, it's important." Wyatt giggles.

EXT. Street - Night (Tuesday)

The sisters and Wyatt orb in on the street, people are running past them, too frightened to react to the orbs. We see burned out cars, some upside down, others on fire. Phoebe: "It looks like a war zone." Off Wyatt's cooing, they all look towards a nest, made up of myriad wreckage - wood, metal, and rock - the dragon's tail hangs out of it. Paige: "Uh-oh, I think it's made a nest. Let's just hope it's not laying any eggs." Piper asks if Paige thinks she can orb one of it's scales off so they can mix the potion. Paige says she can try…and does. But it's no use. In reaction, the tail whips around and retracts into the nest, sending debris falling down as a horrible roar emanates from inside. Paige: "Whoops, I think I just woke it up." Phoebe: "No, I think you just pissed it off!" And just as she finishes saying it, the dragon rises up and lets out another terrifying roar. Paige: "If you're sensing fear now, that would be mine - let's get out of here!" Piper notices Wyatt giggling and gets an idea, "No, wait!" Paige: "Wait? Wait for what?" Piper, "Wyatt…" She hands him to Phoebe, "I don't have time to explain, just make sure he sees me!" She runs off leaving a frantic Phoebe calling out to her, asking her what she's doing. Piper ignores her and runs into the middle of the street and calls out the dragon. "Come on you fire breathing lizard, what are you waiting for? Come and get me!" The dragon spreads its wings and flies into the air, banks around and starts coming in for the attack. Paige, desperate: "Piper, are you nuts?" Piper: "Stay back!" Paige, to Phoebe, "We have to stop her!" Phoebe looks down at Wyatt, noticing he's not laughing anymore, and then it hits her, "No, I think I know what she's doing." Piper: "Come on Wyatt, don't let Mommy down." The dragon closes in, breathing fire. Wyatt begins to cry. Piper closes her eyes, bracing herself just in case, but just before the dragon reaches her, it explodes in a massive vanquish, knocking her on her butt. Paige and Phoebe rush to her side, Piper tells them she's okay, gets up, and grabs Wyatt. "That's my little buddy, I knew you could do it!" Paige: "Okay, confused, what just happened?" Phoebe: "The greatest power there is, the mother and child bond - especially when the child is Wyatt." Paige: "Wait, you mean HE vanquished the dragon?" She turns to Piper, "And you knew he would?" Piper: "I knew he wouldn't want anything to happen to me." Paige: "Well, that's one problem solved. Now, how are we going to clean up this mess?" Phoebe tells her they'll figure something out. We hear the voice again, "No, actually, you won't." The girls spin around to find the Cleaners are back. Piper tries talking to them, "Wait, we did what you asked - we took care of the dragon." Cleaner 1: "But not the exposure risk." Cleaner 2: "The boy." He holds out his hand to receive Wyatt, but Paige, "Oh no you don't!" With that, she orbs all 4 of them out.

INT. Manor - Main Hall - Night

Paige: We don't have much time, they'll follow us…" Phoebe: "How are we going to stop them?" Piper holds Wyatt close, just like in the Teaser. But this time, Piper speaks with a strength we didn't see the last time, "We'll think of something. We're not letting them take him." Sparkling lights begin to form, Paige, "Uh, guys? Incoming!" Out of the lights, the Cleaners materialize. Piper: "No, I won't lose him again!" Cleaner 1 gestures as Cleaner 2 simultaneously holds out his hands. They have Wyatt once again. Piper screams…"NO!!!"…she starts to gesture, but Cleaner 1 waves his hand, sending all 3 of them sprawling back onto the floor. Cleaner 1: "Don't worry, you won't remember any of this anyway." With that, he waves his hand and the room is filled with the same light we saw before as the manor once again reverts to it's pre-Wyatt look. The light soon vanishes and with it, the Cleaners and Wyatt, too. A beat to make us wonder how the girls will react, then Piper: "Do you remember?" Phoebe: "Every bit." Paige: "Our spell protected us." Piper: "It didn't protect Wyatt…he's still gone."

END OF ACT III


ACT IV

INT. Manor - Attic - Night (Tuesday)

Piper's staring out the window while the rain continues. Phoebe's at the Book and Paige is scrying. "Nothing, I can't find The Cleaners anywhere." Phoebe: "Well, they have to exist somewhere, don't they?" Paige: Not necessarily, not on our plane, anyway. Or, even in our time, for that matter. Maybe we should try summoning them." Phoebe asks what they'd do then, since Piper's power was useless on them. Paige, out of ideas, suggest maybe Piper should call for Leo again. Piper admits to her that he can't help anymore than he already has. Paige asks how he did it before. And Piper tells her, "By reminding me I could do this…You know, come to think of it, maybe we've been going about this all wrong. Maybe instead of trying to stop The Cleaners, we should be trying to get them to stop us - like all the time." Phoebe: "You lost me." Piper: "If someone exposes magic, they have no choice but to clean it up, right? That's their job." Paige: "Yeah, so?" Piper: "So, let's expose OUR magic, flush them out, force them to deal with us." Phoebe: "Yeah, fine, except, if we do that, what's to stop them from erasing us?" Piper: "They wouldn't dare. They want something to clean? Let's give it to 'em!"

INT. News Studio - Night (Tuesday)

In the middle of a live newscast, a weatherman is giving the latest, suddenly, Phoebe and Paige orb in beside him. "Woah, what the hell…?" Phoebe: "Hi, how's it going?" Paige waves to the camera and Phoebe grabs the weatherman under his arms. Phoebe: "Let's get a sky-cam view on this one, shall we, Wayne?" Then, Phoebe levitates, pulling Wayne into the air with her as he cries out for help. The camera shakily follows them up and over the backdrop where Phoebe hovers behind, holding Wayne in full view. Then, we see, from another camera, Kinesha (the newscaster from earlier) as she struggles to maintain control of the broadcast, "Uh, I'm not exactly sure what's happening here…" Paige steps in next to her, "It's called magic, Kinesha. Well, witchcraft, specifically." Kinesha is too stunned to speak, especially with Paige's next comment. "Hey, love your….JACKET!" Kinesha's jacket…and shirt…orb off and appear in Paige's hands. She covers herself as a screaming Wayne literally drops to the floor behind the desk. Followed by Phoebe, who lands on top of the desk and turns to the camera, "Want to see more magic? Let's switch to the Golden Gate Bridge Traffic Cam - Take it away, Piper!" We see the monitor as it switches to the Golden Gate, a beat…then we see Piper, all business, as she steps into the shot overlooking the bridge. She holds her hands out dramatically and chants, "Let the object of objection become but a dream as I cause the seen to be unseen." As she finishes, we see the bridge being to disappear from the tall towers downward until it's completely gone. Piper: "You might wanna take an alternate route to work in the morning."

INT. Manor - Attic - Night (Tuesday)

The girls orb in, Paige, "Nicely done, you know, you really gotta get out more." Piper: "Yeah, Pheebs, time to come out of the basement." Phoebe tells them that maybe they're right. Then, once again, we hear a voice, "What do you think you're doing?" All eyes turn to reveal the Cleaners. Cleaner 1 continues: " Are you out of your minds?" Piper: "Ah, caught our little magic act, did you?" Cleaner 2: "How is it you still have your memory?" Phoebe: "I think you'll find we still have a lot of little surprises left in us." Paige' And I'd suggest you return our nephew, unless you want to see a few more." Cleaner 1: "This is pointless, whatever you do, we'll simply erase." Cleaner 2: "Or, we'll erase you." Piper calls their bluff, "You can't, not if you're truly neutral. We're the Charmed Ones - if you erase us, you'll tip the balance of power from Good to Evil and that's hardly being neutral now, is it?" The Cleaners exchange a look, knowing she's right. Piper continues, "Give me my son back, or I swear the only thing you'll be doing for the next fifty years is cleaning up after us!" Cleaner 1: "If we do return him, how do you know you'll be able to control him?" Piper: "I'm his mother, if anybody can, I can." With a wave of his hand, everything is back in place, including Wyatt. Cleaner 1: "Everything is as it was, we've erased all evidence of your son's magic. We'll leave him in your care…" Cleaner 2: "For now." Before they leave, Phoebe sidles up next to them, "Oh, hey, guys, listen before you go, do you think maybe you could do me a teensy favor and erase that little riot I cause at my office? Wouldn't want to lose my job, you know - might have trouble focusing on demon fighting and upset that whole balance thing." Their eyes meet and 1 waves his hand, "It's done." He turns to Piper, "Good luck, you're going to need it." With that, they vanish in their sparkling light, leaving the sisters to share a relieved look. They go to Wyatt, surrounding him with hugs and kisses. Piper: "Easy, easy, you're suffocating him." Phoebe: "I don't care, he's back - and so are we." Paige: "Coffee stains and all." Phoebe: "Speaking of that, what are you gonna do about your job? You gonna keep it?" Paige: "Yeah, I am - but just long enough to take advantage of knowing what happens next."

INT. Mr. Stewick's Office - Day (Wednesday Morning)

We see a pair of shoes, tapping nervously, then we see that they belong to Flo. She's in the middle of her meeting with Stewick. Flo: "Exactly what are you saying?" Mr. Stewick: "I'm saying that, if you don't…make it worth my while, I might find your performance here…lacking." Flo: "Mr. Stewick, please. I need this job." Mr. Stewick: "I know you do, Flo, and that's why I'm giving you an opportunity to keep it, if you catch my meaning." The change in Flo couldn't be more dramatic. She becomes seductive, "Absolutely, I like a man who knows what he wants and isn't afraid to get it. Now, are you afraid to come get it?" Mr. Stewick's shocked, "You mean, you want to…here?" Flo nods and beckons him towards her with an outstretched finger, he doesn't have to be told twice. He stammers into the intercom, "Um…hold all my calls!" As she moves in for the kiss, "Flowerpot!" The flowerpot orbs out and back in above Stewick before it falls, knocking him to the floor. Then, "Flo" morphs into Paige. She opens the office door to reveal the real Flo standing outside, waiting. "Paige? I thought you were…what happened?" Paige, talking loudly for Mr. Stewick's benefit, "Well, I just overheard Mr. Stewick threatening you. Boy, he'll be lucky if you don't sue him!" She looks at Flo and whispers, "Trust me, just go with it." Stewick moans as Flo, knowing Paige did something, offers, "Thanks, Paige, for whatever you just did for me in there." Paige: "Hey, there's a reason I got this job, and I think that was it." She exits leaving Flo to watch her go.

INT. Manor - Conservatory - Day (Wednesday Morning)


Music plays over Piper, holding a sleeping Wyatt in her arms, gently rocking him. And as we draw closer, we see that she's smiling…not wanting to put him down. Holding for a beat on the wordless moment between mother and son.

FADE OUT
