At the Manor, Phoebe is asleep in bed. She is dreaming about Cole, having flashbacks
-Ladies, my name's Cole Turner... I won't hurt you
-It's a little too late for that, don't you think?
-Phoebe, I'm telling you, I'm not evil anymore... I come to you, a man, nothing more, nothing less
-Vanquish this evil from time and space - the last flashback Phoebe sees is Coles' vanquish when he was the Source of all Evil. She wakes up with a jolt
In an apartment a man and a woman are on the bed. The woman is humming a song. She strokes his chest and then his face. She gasps
-Don't stop - man pleades
-But it's time. Can't you feel it? Your wife is almost here - woman says
-Oh, my wife. Melissa - man says
-Yes, didn't I mention? - she asks as door opens and closes from outside - I always like to let the wives watch their men die
-David? - Melissa asks as she walks in
-Now - the woman says and kisses David passionately and hums a song. Smoke rises from their lips and turns into flames. David falls back on the bed, dead - Wow. Oh, your husband was so much fun. It's time to snap out of it and feel the pain - she says and throws Melissa against a table and it smashes
-David? - Melissa asks
-Oh, he can't hear you - he woman says and waves her hand in front of the curtain and it bursts into flames - not anymore
-Oh, god - Melissa says and races over to David but the woman stops her
-Ah-a-a-a. You see, I was burned for my sins. Only fair you should burn too - the woman says. Melissa coughs from the smoke. The woman smokes out
At The Bay Mirror Phoebe's sitting at her desk, talking on the phone
-Death did us part, Cole. Just because you figured out a way to come back, doesn't mean that I didn't keep my end of the bargain - she says to Cole
-Come on, Phoebe, a quickie divorce... - he says. She interrupts
-I just thought since we weren't gonna ride off into the sunset... - she says to him then he interrupts her
-You want sunset? I can have us on horseback in five seconds flat
-Oh, yeah? What, are you gonna steal a horse from one of those apocalypse guys? - she asks
-Haven't I proven to you that I'm not evil anymore? - he answers with a question
-Cole, we've been through this, okay. Your powers are evil, your blood is acidic and everything that you are you stole from the Demonic Wasteland - she says
-This morning my firm agreed to pro bono work. You can't say that's evil - he says
-Well, if you use demonic mind control to convince your firm to do it, then yeah - she retorts
-I also used my powers to vanquish three demons this week. What about that? - he asks her
-Cole, it doesn't matter who you're helping. If you're using your evil powers then it doesn't help, count - she says but he doesn't listen anymore. He focuses his attention on the TV. He turns up the volume
-The neighbours fear that some residents may be trapped inside - the reporter says on TV
-Hello? - Phoebe can be heard on the phone but Cole still doesn't listen her
-The flames are so intense the firefighters have been unable to get inside to help - the reporter says
-Cole? - Phoebe asks as he dissapeares - Cole? - she asks again. At The Bay Mirror some employees are watching the news. Suddenly, Cole walks out of the building on the TV, carrying a woman
-He saved that woman! - one of the employees says
-He saved her - another employee says. Phoebe watches the TV in awe
At the Manor in the kitchen, Prue and Paige are making a potion. Piper walks in slowly, holding her stomach
-Paige? - she asks and hiccups and a fizzy bubble floats out of her mouth - Prue?
-Yeah, just a second - Paige says
-Now add mandrake root - Prue says to Paige. Neither of them pay attention on Piper. Piper hiccups another fizzy bubble. Piper picks up a pan and drops it on the table. Paige gets a fright and drops something in the pot. The potion explodes
-Uh! Are you trying to kill us? - Paige asks Piper
-No, I'm trying to get a little attention around here, which these days seems to require a small explosion - Piper says to Paige
-Well, excuse me for trying to focus - Paige retorts
-Yeah, Piper, you're never gonna know when the next demon is going to attack - Prue says - That's why Paige and I've been practicing our powers since I haven't used my powers in a year - Prue says and Paige throws in
-And my power is new and I wanted to strengthen it so.. - she points out at Prue. Prue looks at Piper
-Watch this - she focuses and astral projects next to herself. She waves her hand a little and an empty potion vial flies into the wall - Impressive,huh? - She asks Piper and before Piper has time to answer Paige interrupts
-Watch now what I can do when I'm touching someone - she says, grabs Prues' hand and orb shield appears around both of them - Now I don't have to stand in front of a person who I need to protect and raise a shield - she exlaims. Piper just looks at Paige strangely
-Paige, ever since you quit your job you've been on some weird witchcraft mission - Piper says to Paige and then turns to Prue - and you're not any better, now I miss my sisters and I can not stand the constant reek of your potions
-Well, since when do your nasal passages take precedence over our potions? - Paige asks Piper
-Since I got pregnant and my senses went into over drive. But that's alright, you know, you've been busy, maybe you haven't noticed - Piper says
-I just want us to be better prepared for demonic threats - Prue defends herself
-And I gave up a promising career so I could focus on the craft and no offence, Piper, I've still got a lot to learn. Which means I can't just sit around the house chit-chatting - Paige says
-Paige, I don't wanna chat. I got problems here. Geez, you look like my husband with boobs - Piper says and Paige looks at her boobs. Prue just laughs at Pipers' comment. Piper hiccups a fizzy bubble. She sighs
-Uh, what the hell was that? - Paige asks
-That was the latest in a series of wacky tricks my growing baby is playing on my body. You know, because the constant nausea and the torturous breast pain was not enough - Piper says
-That orbs, is that normal? - Paige asks
-This is what I'd like to know. You're half Whitelighter like the baby, did you ever... - Piper tries to ask
-Burp white light? No. What else is happening to you? - Paige asks
-What's happening is I think my baby is trying to turn me into some kind of pacifist - Piper says
-Huh. What does Leo say about this? - Prue asks
-Well, mostly Leo says "Sorry, honey, I gotta go" - Piper says. They hear the TV on and they walk into the living room. Leo's there watching TV - Oh, good, you're home. You would not believe what's happening with my... - Piper tries to say but Leo interrupts her
-Did you see this? - he asks
-You came home to watch TV? - Prue asks him
-No, look - he says. The news is showing replays of Cole saving Melissa
-Is that Cole? - Piper asks
-Oh my god, I can't believe he's doing "look at me I'm a good guy" routine on prime time. Phoebe must be thrilled - Paige remarks
-Well, she should be. The Elders said the woman he saved, Melissa, is a future Whitelighter and if he hadn't saved her, she would never get the chance to do the good that would earn her her wings - Leo says
-Well, speaking of Whitelighters, I dreamt an animated musical last night. Is that normal? - Piper asks him
-Normal? - he asks her
-Yeah, in case you haven't noticed which I know you haven't, my body, my thoughts, my dreams have all gone wonky - Piper says to him
-Well, I'm sure it's all just normal pregnancy stuff. I mean, we could talk about this later if you want to - Leo says
-Oh, I think you should talk about it now - Paige suggests lowering her voice
-Okay, well, I think this attack on Melissa was demonic and the Elders want me to watch after her until she's safe - Leo says
-Fine. Go - Piper says as tears well up in her eyes
-Oh, not the crying thing - Leo says and Prue and Paige give him "are you crazy" look
-Leo, I have growing powers inside of me. Powers that I do not understand, and the only person who does understand them never has time to talk. Add that to raging hormones and I guarantee you I am absolutely entitled to do the crying thing! - Piper says and hiccups another fizzy bubble
-Okay, is that normal? - Paige asks Leo
-I am sure that it's just all this arguing has got the baby upset - Leo answers
-Leo, the baby is an inch long. All this arguing is upsetting the mommy - Piper says
-Okay, honey, look, I'm sure that it's nothing to worry about. Right now I need to watch after Melissa and you need to figure out who's after her. I'm sorry - Leo says to Piper. Piper looks away. Leo kisses her head and orbs out
-You want me to orb his butt back here for you? - Paige asks Piper
-No, he's right. Innocents come first. And besides, the smell of his aftershave was making me wanna vomit a little - Piper says and head for the door
-Where you going? - Paige asks her
-To Andy and Darryl. To see if the police found anything at the crime scene that might help - Piper responds
-I'll go with you - Prue says to Piper
-Okay, not to sound too simplistic but if she's a Whitelighter-to-be, doesn't that mean we're after a Darklighter? - Paige asks
-No, Darklighters use poison arrows, they don't usually set fires - Prue answers
-Well, why would a demon wanna kill her anyway? - Paige asks
-I don't know, but the sooner we find out, the sooner I'll probably be able to finish a conversation with my husband - Piper answers and she and Prue leave
In her office at The Bay Mirror Phoebe's sitting at her desk. There's a knock on the door
-I'm not here, go away - she says to herself. The door opens and Elise walks in
-Ahh, if it isn't the little wife - Elise says
- Actually, it's not. My marriage is over. All except for the paperwork - Phoebe corrects her
-Don't let your readers here you say that. Who wants to take advice from the woman who's divorcing Superman? - Elise says to her
-Elise, he's no hero. And if you're here to make me give an interview that's exactly what I'll say - Phoebe says to her
-Which is why you'll be getting the interview instead - Elise says
-Excuse me? No, I'm not a reporter - Phoebe says as an excuse
-No, but you're the wife. It's called human interest. Call your husband and get an exclusive with him. Consider this a personal favour. By favour I mean order - Elise says and leaves Phoebes' office. Phoebe races after her
-Elise. Woman to woman, okay? Cole was the love of my life. And I'm finally learning to live my life without him. Now calling him for a favour would be opening up a can of worms that I have worked so hard to close - Phoebe tries one more time
-Woman to woman, if you're still describing this guy as the love of your life then the can is open, the worms are out and you may as well use them to go fishing - Elise says to her and leaves
In a club the Siren is sitting at the bar. She smiles at a man sitting at the bar a couple of stools down
-Shouldn't you be at home with your wife? - she asks him
-Probably - he answers. She moves to the stool next to him
-Rough day? - she asks him
-Rough month - he answers
-You know what might make you feel better? A little music - she says and starts humming a song. She strokes his face. The news comes on a TV near by. She sees that Melissa survived - What? She's alive?
-I'm sorry, what? - the man asks her. She looks at him
-You have no idea how lucky you just got - she says to him and leaves
At The Bay Mirror in her office, Phoebe and Cole are sitting in awkward silence
-Alright, let's get this over with, shall we? - Phoebe asks and sighs - What was going through your mind while you were in the fire?
-Uh, well, mostly I was hoping that one of the powers I picked up from the Demonic Wasteland would protect me from the flames - Cole jokes
-You know what? Let's just forget it. Let's just forget this whole thing - Phoebe says
-No, no, no, I'm sorry. I'll, uh, I'll rein it in - Cole says
-Alright. Well, what was going through your mind when you were in the fire? - she asks him again
-I was thinking, um, I hope I make it out of this. I'd hate to never see my wife again - he answers
-Cole.. - she starts but he interrupts her
-I'm serious. All day long, every thing I do I'm thinking of you - he admits to her
-Okay, do you think this is some kind of game? Do you have any idea how disturbing it was for me to watch you walk through a wall of fire - she says
-I saved a woman's life, how is that disturbing? - he asks
-Well, because you have more powers than any demon I have ever met. And the city may think that you're just this brave guy, but I know the truth, okay, and it's freakin' scary - she says to him
-I will not use my powers for anything but good - he tries to convice her
-I know you believe that and I know you want it to be true but, Cole, it's just a matter of time - she says
-You're wrong - he says and stands up
-Cole, evil is inside of you, it's who you are. And no amount of good deeds will ever change that - she reasons with him
-You're wrong. And if I have to hunt down and kill every demon in San Francisco to prove it to you, then that's what I'm gonna do - he says
-Cole. What about the interview? - she asks him
-You know me so well, make it up - he says and leaves her office
At the Manor, Paige is in the attic with a darklighter. he darklighter is in a crystal trap
-Paige - Piper shouts
-In the attic - Paige shouts back
-Okay, so the good news is it's not a... - Piper says as she and Prue walk in the attic - darklighter
-That's what I've been telling her - darklighter says. Paige throws a crystal at the trap and shocks him
-Shut up - Paige says to him
-I told you, I don't know anything! - he says. Paige touches the trap with a crystal and shocks him. He doubles over in pain
-Paige, what are you doing? - Piper asks Paige while Prue drags them away from the crystal trap
-Relax, Piper, I summoned him into a trap so he can tell me which one of his lovely friends is trying to kill Melissa - Paige says
-I'm sorry, did you say relax? You brought a Darklighter into our home and you want me to relax? - Piper asks Paige and throws her purse angrily
-Don't worry, the Book Of Shadows is safe downstairs - Paige says. The darklighter tries to disable the trap but zaps himself
-I'm not worried about the book. Paige, you have Whitelighter genes which means this guy could kill you, not to mention my husband an my unborn child - Piper argues with Paige
-Ok, both of you need to calm down - Prue says as she tries to get in the middle of Piper and Paige
-Yeah, Piper, it's not like he's in a power position or anything - Paige dismisses Pipers' concerns. The darklighter disables the trap and escapes. His crossbow appears and he shoots for Prue, Piper and Paige. They move out of the way - Okay, I was wrong, blow him up! - Paige says to Piper and Piper tries to blow him up but fireworks appear above him
-What the hell? - Piper asks. Prue's the first one to snap out of the distraction the firework brought. She uses her telekinesis and brings the crossbow to herself. She shots and an arrow goes straight through darklighters' heart. He explodes
-See? This is why we do not summon Darklighters to the house! - Piper scolds Paige. Paige tries to say something back but Prue interrupts her
-Noted. Now what the hell is going on with your powers? - Prue asks Piper trying to stop them from arguing. She gives the crossbow to Paige
-I don't know. I think my half-Whitelighter baby thought that fireworks would be prettier than demon guts - Piper answers
-Okay, we need to teach your also half-witch baby the joys of maiming and killing demons - Paige counters and shoves the crossbow into Pipers' face
-Get that thing away from me - Piper says to Paige and she puts the crossbow down - Leo!
-What, are you gonna tell on me now? - Paige half - teases Piper
-No! We need help, especially if my baby's gonna be messing with my powers. Look, Melissa's husband's lungs were incinerated before the apartment burned. Leo! And Andy and Darryl said three other men died the same way recently. So the fact that Melissa is a future Whitelighter might be just a coincidence. For god's sakes, Leo! - Piper shouts at ceiling. Her mobile phone rings. She answers it - Hello?
-Yeah, what's up? - Leo asks from the other side of the line
-What's up? Now you don't even come home when I call? - Piper asks him. Prue and Paige look ah each other silently comunicating "Leo's in trouble"
-Well, I haven't had a chance to get in to heal Melissa. She's in really bad shape but I think the doctor's about to come out any minute - Leo says
-Yeah, okay, but we're in pretty bad shape here too. We've got some fire breathing demon to deal with - Piper says but Leo doesn't listen to her because a nurse walks up to him
-Uh, sir, that phone is for staff use only - the nurse says
-Okay, just one second - he says to nurse and then to Piper - Now's my chance, I have to go
-No, no, no, you don't understand. My powers are on the fritz and I have no idea how to... - Piper tries to tell him but he hangs up - control them
In the hospital Leo walks into Melissa's room. The Siren smokes in
-Hey! - Leo says and holds out his hand and the Siren sees his wedding ring. She starts humming a song and moves closer to Leo. He looks like he's in a trance
At the Manor Prue, Piper and Paige are still in the attic
-Maybe he got disconnected? - Paige tries to defend Leo
-Oh, no, he hung up on me. Okay, vanquish demon first, kill husband later. Let's just get to the book... - Piper starts to say and stops when she hears the Siren's humming - Leo
-What? - Paige asks her
-It's so beautiful - Piper says sounding like she's in a trance too
-What is? Hello, anybody home? - Paige asks and waves her hand in front of Pipers' face
-Leo - Piper says in the same tone
-I don't like this. Paige, can you sense where Leo is exactly? - Prue asks Paige. Paige closes her eyes for a second
-Yeah, I know where he is - she says to Prue
-Orb us all to him - Prue says and grabs both Paiges' and Pipers' hands. They orb out
In hospital in Melissas' room the Siren is kissing Leo. Smoke is rising from their lips. Paige orbs in with Prue and Piper
-Hey! - Paige says and grabs an IV stand and hits the Siren over her back. She is knocked to the floor. Leo coughs. Piper snaps out of the trance - like state she was in
-Orb her out Leo - Prue says to him and he orbs out with Melissa. The Siren gets up
-Kiss this, bitch! - Piper says to the Siren and tries to blow her up but colourful flowers fall from above her - Oh, bad baby! - Piper says. The Siren telekinetically pushes Piper out the window. Paige orbs a split second later after her. Prue telekinetically throws a pole at the Siren and it goes right through her stomach. She smokes out. Piper is falling from the room. Paige orbs in and grabs her. They fall into a dumpster. Prue runs to the window to see if Piper and Paige are all right
-I hit her with flowers? - Piper asks angrily
-You're welcome - Paige retorts and rolls her eyes
At the Manor in the living room, Melissa is lying on the couch while Leo heals her. Prue, Piper and Paige orb in and Piper freezes Melissa
-Well, at least that power still works - Paige remarks
-Are you alright? What happened? - Leo asks them
-Before or after you were making out with the demon? - Piper asks angrily and throws her jacket. Leo sighs
-Well, we'll just go get the book - Prue says, grabs Paiges' hand and they exit the living room
-I wouldn't want to be Leo now - Prue says to Paige as they walk upstairs. Paige laughs
-Me neither
-Honey... - Leo starts
-No, don't you "honey" me. Leo, our pacifist offspring just turned my best offensive power into flowers. Which got me blown out a window - Piper interrupts him. Leo goes over to her
-Wh- are you alright? Did she heal you? - he asks her
-Oh, is that what you think? Because I'm self healing now that you don't need to be around? - she asks him starting to get angry again
-No, I don't think that at all. Look, let's just focus on what's going on with your powers - he tries to calm her
-No, I'm sick and tired of focusing on everything but us. I feel like I'm going through this whole pregnancy thing by myself and I do not like it - she snaps at him
-Well, what am I supposed to do? I have a job - he counters
-Yeah, you have a wife too - she counters back. Prue and Paige walk in the living room with the Book of Shadows with them
-We think we found the demon. Are we interrupting something? - Paige asks
-Yes. What does the book say? - Piper asks
-Well, as a mortal the Siren fell in love with a married man but when they were caught the man was held blameless - Paige reads from the Book
-Typicall - Piper says and Leo glares at her
-The village women cheered as they burned her to death and her rage turned her into a Siren, a vengeful demon who seduces married men with her song, then destroys the couples with the very flame that consumed her - Paige reads again
-Lovely - Piper says and rolls her eyes
-Nothing we can't handle with a good potion - Prue says
-I wouldn't be so sure, you didn't feel her power - Leo says
-Looked to me like you felt a little bit more than her power - Piper says sarcastically
-Yeah, right, like I really wanted to - Leo says
-Yeah, well, if you were home instead... - Piper starts arguing again
-What? What am I supposed to do? Abandon my charges? Clip my wings? - Leo asks Piper
-I expect you to care, and notice, and ask what's going on with me. I expect you to make me a priority and not just when demons are involved - Piper says to him. Prue and Paige stand there awkwardly. Orbing light appears out of Piper and Leo's backs. Prue and Paige look alarmed
-Uh, Piper, Leo? - Paige tries to get their attention
-Look, it's not like I'm out golfing or screwing around. I'm working and my work is very important - Leo says to Piper
-I'm not saying that it isn't - Piper says to him
-Then what are you saying? - Leo asks Piper
-You guys? - now Prue tries to get their attention as the orbing light grows even bigger
-Forget it, you don't understand - Piper says to him
-I don't understand? You don't understand - Leo says to her
-Well, I understand that your charges are more important than your family - Piper remarks
-You have no idea what I go through every day - Leo says to her
-Yeah, well, you have no clue what I go through every day - Piper counters. The two orbing lights hit Piper and Leo and knock them to the floor
-Ooh, that can't have been good - Paige says
-What happened? - Leo asks as he and Piper get up
-Well, we tried to tell you guys. Orbs were swirling and... - Paige says as Melissa unfreezes. She gets up, frightened
-Where, where am I? - Melissa asks
-Freeze her again - Leo says to Piper. She tries to freeze her but she orbs out and back in instead
-Whoa - Piper says as Melissa gasps - What just happened here? - Piper asks. Melissa gets scared and heads for the door
-Melissa, wait! - Leo says. He reaches out for her and blows up the glass on the door
-Oh, my god! - Meilssa exlaims
-Hey! That's my power! - Piper says to Leo. Melissa opens the door and runs away. Phoebe walks in
-Okay, why do I have the feeling my day's about to get worse? - Phoebe asks
At the Sirens' place, the Siren and a demon are there. he Siren still has the pole stuck in her stomach. The demon is making a black paste
-Hold on, almost there - the demon says as he pulls out the pole. The siren groans painfully
-Was it the Charmed Ones? - she asks him. He smells the pole
-Smells that way. There were only three? - he asks her and she nods - Lucky you didn't meet all four. You wouldn't have had the luxury of calling me for healing - he says and spreads some paste on her wound - You should leave before the witches find you - he advises her
-I want them to find me. Save me from having to sing for their husbands - she says
-So eager for vengeance. Foolish girl. You barely got away the first time - he says to her
-I wasn't ready for them, this time I will be - she says
-But how can you hope to fight such powerful witches? - he asks her
-They may be powerful but they are no different than any other woman when it comes to love - she answers
At the Manor in the parlor, Piper, Phoebe and Leo are there. Prue's in the living room on the phone. Paige is in the foyer pacing up and down with the Book Of Shadows
-I need to go after Melissa - Leo says
-And what? Blow her up? - Phoebe asks him teasingly
-Damn it - Leo says and then says to Pipers' stomach - Give daddy his powers back now
-Don't blame my niece. She magically swapped your powers because the two of you were not communicating - Phoebe says to Piper and Leo
-We were communicating, we were just communicating loudly - Piper says
-Well, think what you want, I think my niece is a genius. She did exactly what any good marriage counsellor would've done - Phoebe says proudly
-A good marriage counsellor would've swapped our powers? - Leo asks
-No. She would've made you walk a mile in each other's shoes - Phoebe says
-Abracadabra! - Paige says and the broken glass on the door magically gets repaired
-Nice job! - Phoebe compliments Paiges' work
-You did all that with abracadabra? - Piper asks
-Nah, I used a spell. I just always wanted to say that. Come on, we need to go make the Sirens' potion before she starts singing again - Paige says as Prue walks in the parlor, still on the phone
-No, Andy, stay at the station. There's a demon slut we need to take care of. Although she goes after married men I don't want to take any chances. Ok, see you later. Love you - she hangs up the phone - Back to the demon slut... - she starts but Leo interrupts her
-Uh, shouldn't we concentrate on swapping our powers back? - he asks
-Come on now, Leo, you know how that works. You two are only gonna get your powers back once you've learned your lessons - Paige says
-Ugh, I hate that. It's just so very after school special - Piper complains and Prue, Phoebe and Paige try to stifle chuckle
After a while everyone's in the kitchen. Prue, Phoebe and Paige are making the potion. Piper is standing there patting her head
-Okay, uh, what's with all the chatter in my head? - Piper asks Leo
-It's probably one of my charges. Does anyone sound panicked? - Leo asks Piper as she sits on a chair next to him
-How do you differentiate? Wait, do you hear these voices all the time? - she asks him
-Pretty much - he answers
-Okay, can we just focus on the Siren? Power swap or not, if she came after you once you're still vulnerable - Phoebe says
-Hey, you're still married too, she might come after you - Paige teases Phoebe
-Yeah, technically. Besides, if she's stupid enough to go after Cole it'll be her swan song - Phoebe says. They hear knocking
-Knocking, okay, I'm hearing knocking sounds - Piper says
-Yeah, honey, we all are - Paige says to Piper as Cole appears
-Cole - Phoebe says
-What? I knocked - Cole defends himself
-Doors, people use doors - Piper says sarcastically
-No time. I came to warn you there's a Siren in town. I think she might be the one that... - Cole says
-Set the fire? Yeah, yeah, we got that - Prue interrupts him. Leo burps and a fizzy bubble floats out of his mouth
-Whoa, what was that? - Cole asks
-Hey, how did you do that? - Piper asks Leo
-I don't know but I'm feeling really nauseous - Leo answers holding his hand over his mouth
-Oh, god, and I'm not. Wait, how, why... Why does he have my pregnancy symptoms? - Piper asks no one in particular
-Wait, w-wait, you're pregnant? - Cole asks Piper astonished
-Well, I was but now I think Leo is - Piper answers
-No, no-no-no-no - Leo says in denial
-Relax, you guys. Leo blew the door up, he didn't cover it in flowers, which mean clearly you're still pregnant - Paige explains
-Mm. Then why...? - Piper tries to ask but Phoebe interrupts her
-Because magic has a sick sense of humour. Just enjoy it - she says
-Are your boobs always this sore? - Leo asks Piper and she laughs
-I'm a little confused - Cole admits
-Cole, maybe you should leave - Phoebe suggests
-I second that - Prue says sending a cold glare in Coles' direction. He just looks at her then turns to Phoebe
-Phoebe, the Siren is dangerous and since your powers are obviously a little off, maybe I could help - he says
-Uh, that's okay, we don't need your help. We've got enough demons to deal with around here - Piper says
-Fine. I'll find her and vanquish her myself - Cole says and disappears
-He's trying so hard to be good, maybe... - Phoebe says but Paige interrupts her
-Phoebe, we've been down this road before - she says
-And again before that - Prue agrees with Paige
-Panic! Somedbody's panicking! - Piper suddendly says
-Who is it? - Leo asks Piper
-Uh, I don't know, it's close. I think it might be Melissa - Piper concludes
-Is the Siren after her? - Paige asks Piper
-No, she seems more overwhelmed than scared - Piper says
-Well, yeah, everything she's been through. I have to go to her - Leo says and starts to get up
-You're not going anywhere. She's going - Phoebe says pointing at Piper
-Me? Why? - Piper asks
-Well, because you have Leo's powers now. That means you're the Whitelighter - Phoebe explains to Piper
-No-no-no, but that doesn't mean I know what to do - Piper tries to get out of it
-I think that's the point. Walk a mile in each other's shoes - Phoebe stresses the second sentence out
-Ugh. Ahh! - Piper says and holds her head
-Alright, you have to hurry. Paige will show you how to orb - Leo says
-Nah-uh, I have to stay here and make the potion - Paige says
-We'll do it - Phoebe says and puts an arm around Prues' waist
-Come on, come on, she's giving me a migraine - Piper says as she gets up and grabs Paiges' hand. They orb out. Phoebe puts some stuff in a pot
-So you ready to kick some demon ass... - Prue starts the question directed toward Leo and Phoebe finishes it
-Sis? - she says and both she and Prue look at Leo teasingly. He sighs
Melissa's at her burnt apartment. Piper and Paige orb in
-Okay, we're here, now what? - Paige asks Piper
-I don't know. I mean, she's afraid of us, I don't wanna make her more upset - Piper answers
-Well, let's just cast a spell to help her deal with what she's been through today - Paige suggests
-Call me crazy but somehow I don't think witchcraft is the solution here - Piper reasons with Paige
-Well, I'm out of ideas - Paige says
-Paige, there is another part of you. Your first father was half Whitelighter - Piper says
-Yeah, he also has blue eyes, doesn't mean that I do - Paige retorts. They stand on something and Melissa spins around
-Who are you? Why won't you leave me alone? - Melissa asks them
-Melissa, we're just trying to help you, and get you some clothes - Piper says and tries to approach Melissa
-Get away from me! Just leave me alone! - Melissa says and runs away from them. Piper sighs
-Whoa. Another charge is in trouble. Oh, big trouble. You go after her, I've gotta go - Piper instructs Paige
-What? No, you can't expect me to... - Paige starts to say but Piper orbs out - I'm not a Whitelighter, I'm a witch! Uh! - Paige says angrily
Piper orbs in an alley in France. A woman is hiding behind some boxes. A rooster is walking around. The woman sees Piper and runs over to her
-Where is Leo? - the woman asks Piper in French
-What? - Piper ask,sounding confused
-Please, you have to help, they're after me - the woman says, again in French
-Calm down, I'll protect you - Piper says in French and then in English - Whoa, was that French?
-They're coming! - the woman say in French. Two men with guns run around the corner
-Let's go! - Piper says in French and she and woman run
At the Manor in the kitchen Leo blows up the glass on the kitchen cupboard
-Nice shot - Phoebe compliments him
-I was aiming for the plant. These powers are useless, they're completely out of control - Leo says
-Well, that's because you're a little out of control. You just need to relax - Prue advices him
-Relax? I'm sore all over, I'm without my powers, and I'm about to have to fight a demon. My own aftershave is making me sick. How's Piper do this? - Leo asks
-Well, she too sometimes gets a little cranky - Phoebe says
-The Elders are gonna kill me if anything happens to my charges, they're gonna clip my wings and... - Leo starts to say but hiccups a fizzy bubble - Oh, this is ridiculous. Piper! Piper! Why do they call it morning sickness if it lasts all day? - he asks. Piper orbs in holding the rooster. Both Prue and Phoebe start laughing
-What the hell? A rooster? - Phoebe asks Piper
-Long story - Piper says and puts rooster down and turns toward Leo - Since when do you speak French?
-Whitelighters speak whatever language their charges are speaking in - Leo answers
-Uh-huh. We've been together four years and I don't know this? - Piper asks
-Hey, where's Paige? Because this potion's almost ready - Prue says
-She is with Melissa, and she's not real happy about it either. Whoa, I gotta go, somebody's calling - Piper says
-Okay, Piper, wait. I need help with your powers... and with your nausea - Leo says
-Uh, well, honey, I'm sorry but somebody's really in trouble - Piper says and starts to orb out
-But I'm really in trouble - Leo says
-Try saltines - Piper says and orbs out completely
-Okay - Phoebe says and walks over to Leo - here are your crackers, here's a pad and a pen, we need a summoning spell
-Now I'm supposed to rhyme? - Leo asks
-Yeah, no rest for the whiney. The potion won't work on the Siren unless we can find her. Do it - Phoebe says and she and Prue leave
At the Sirens' place, Cole pushes the demon up against the wall
-Where is the Siren? - Cole asks the demon and grabs him around his throat. Cole hears the Siren's singing. He lets the demon go
-I'm sure you two will want to be alone - the demon says and disappears. Cole walks over to the Siren. She strokes his hair and he leans in for a kiss
-Uh-uh. Patience. Right now I need to sing for your witch - the Siren says and starts humming a song
At the Manor in the conservatory Prue and Phoebe are sitting on the floor
-Hey, let's hear the spell, Leo, we've got a Siren to vanquish - Prue says. Leo walks in and sits down
-"O singing lady of the dusk, who preys on men turns love to lust, we hearken ye..." - Leo starts to read the spell but Phoebe interrupts him
-We hearken ye? What, are we trying to summon a leprechaun here? - she asks Leo and she and Prue laugh
-I told you I wasn't very good at this - Leo snaps at them
-Give me that - Phoebe says and takes the spell - It's okay, honey, we'll just rewrite that last line - she says trying to calm Leo down. Paige orbs in
-What's going on? Is it all over? - Paige asks them
-No, you're just in time. We have a potion, we have a barricade, we almost have a summoning spell - Prue says
-Okay, let's get to it - Paige says
-Wait, where's Melissa? - Leo asks Paige
-Melissa... Well, she got herself arrested - Paige says and Prue, Phoebe and Leo look at her in disbelief - I know, I know, I was trying to talk to her and then I was running after and she just kept running and then she ran into the middle of the street and she caused a big giant traffic accident
-Paige! - Phoebe scolds her
-Well, you know, she'll be safe now... in jail - Paige says and smiles sheepishly
-Paige, you were supposed to be taking care of her. Look, don't you get it? This could be the final straw. The beginning of a downward spiral from which she may never recover - Leo says and Prue, Phoebe and Paige look at him in awe - I'm sorry - he says and walks into the living room and sits on the couch. He picks up a pillow and hugs it. Prue, Phoebe and Paige walk in - I don't know what's wrong with me
-Dude, it's the crying thing - Paige repeats the words he said to Piper earlier
-It's the hormones - Phoebe says to him
-Really? I just thought that was an excuse - Leo says
-Welcome to our world - Prue says as Piper orbs in, looking angry
-What happened to Melissa?
-Ooh, word travels fast - Prue says and nudges Paige
-I feel like she's in trouble but I'm getting so many damn signals, I can't find her - Piper starts to ramble. Phoebe hears Sirens' song - Wasn't she supposed to be the one charge I didn't have to worry about? - Piper directs her question toward Paige
-Cole - Phoebe says, sounding like she's in trance and walks out of the living room
-I'm sorry, Piper, I tried - Paige says
-Yeah, well, while you were trying I evaded assassins, I prevented two crimes of passion in Portuguese no less, and delivered a baby. I think the least that I could ask for in return is a little help from my family - Piper starts to argue
-Well, I told you I wasn't any good at this Whitelighter thing - Paige argues back
-But it's in you, it's half of who you are - Leo joins the argument
-Obviously the latent half - Paige says
-No, Paige, it's the half that made you become a social worker in the first place. But it's like when you quit your job you quit half your personality - Piper says
-But my job is being a full time witch and I intend to be good at it and I don't think there's a problem with me concentrating on magic - Paige says
-Well, there is when you're in such a hurry to get back here for a vanquish that you leave an innocent alone and in pain - Leo says
-Paige, it's our compassion not our powers that separates us from the bad guys. It's the part of you you can never afford to lose. And it's that part of you that Melissa needs now - Prue says
-I guess I'd better get back to her - Paige says and orbs out
In the police station, Melissa's in a room. Paige walks in and sits down
-How'd you get them to let you in here? - Melissa asks her
-I have a friend who's a police officer and he knows I'm not here to hurt you. Look, I know you don't know me and after everything you've been through today, I know you have no reason to trust me - Paige says
-Who are you? What are you? What do you want from me? - Melissa asks her
-My name is Paige Matthews and I'm a witch and a sort of part guardian angel. I know it's a lot to process and really hard to believe but I really do just want to help you - Paige says
-I feel like I'm going crazy - Melissa says
-Yeah, I think after what you've been through today anybody would. My friend, he's working on getting you out of here - Paige says
-I don't care. I don't care if I ever get outta here - Melissa says
-Melissa, I'm so sorry about your husband - Paige tries to confort her
-I just can't believe that he's gone - Melissa says, her voice cracking. Paige nods in understanding
At the Manor Leo is at the foyer. Prue and Piper come down the stairs
-Phoebe's not anywhere - Leo says
-What if Phoebe underestimated the Siren? What if the Siren has Phoebe and Cole? - Piper voices their fears
-Can you sense her? - Prue asks Piper
-I've been trying but there's all this chaos in my brain. I keep hearing voices and there's all this pain and I can't isolate anything - Piper says
-I know it's hard but you have to try. Breathe. Concentrate - Leo suggests. Piper tries that and gives up a few seconds later
-Screw that. Let's just cut to the chase - she says and grabs both Leos' and Prues' hands and they all orb out. They orb in Coles' apartment - Phoebe? - she tries
-Cole's place? Did you sense her here? - Prue asks Piper
-No, I just decided to rely on some good old fashion common sense. Phoebe? - Piper tries again
-Okay, well, that's not working and we can't orb all over town trying to find her, you have to sense her - Leo says
-Well, I can't - Piper says
-Piper, you have to - Prue says and Piper sighs
At the Sirens' place Cole and the Siren are there on the bed. The Siren is humming a song
-Oh, she's almost here. It's too bad. I was actually having fun with you - Siren says as Phoebe walks in. The Siren kisses Cole and smoke rises from their mouths. Cole falls back unconscious
-Cole - Phoebe says
-He was cute. But this is still my favourite part - Siren says and uses her power and slams Phoebe against a wall - Nobody hurts me and gets away with it, you little witch
-Wanna bet? - Phoebe asks rhetorically and throws the potion at the Siren but it disintegrates in midair. The Siren turns to Cole, who's sitting on the bed
-You're alive. That's not possible - Siren says, sounding dumbfounded
-Cole, that was the vanquishing potion - Phoebe says
-I know - Cole says and walks over to the Siren - I want her for myself. The Siren starts to smoke out but he grabs her
-Do me a favour, make it hurt - Phoebe says to Cole and gets a surprise when Cole doesn't kill Siren, but kisses her instead
Prue, Piper and Leo are at Coles' apartment. Piper's sitting on the couch with her eyes closed
-Piper, you have to focus. Take a deep breath and imagine white lights flowing around you, flowing through you - Leo says to Piper
-If I breathe anymore I'm gonna pass out - Piper remarks
-Damn it, Piper. I hear those voices, I feel that pain all the time. How do you think I do it? How do you think I separate myself? - Leo asks her
-I don't know - Piper says
-By coming home to you. I've been walking around in your life all day and I honestly don't know how you handle it. The way I handle mine is by coming home to you. It's your love that keeps me whole and sane and balanced, and I need you to allow me to do the same thing for you right now. So look into my eyes, breathe - Leo advices Piper and she begins to hear Phoebes' voice in her head
-Oh god. Phoebe - Piper exlaims
At Sirens' place Cole grabs Phoebe by the neck and holds her down
-Cole, get off of me. Leo! Piper! - Phoebe calls for them
-I think he'll come in handy with your sisters - the Siren remarks as Prue, Piper and Leo orb in
-Leo, it's all you - Piper says
-Yeah, we've got Cole, just hurry up - Prue says. Leo tries to blow up the Siren but blows up a vase instead. It knocks the Siren backwards. Piper and Prue race over and try to get Cole off Phoebe. He knocks both of them across the room
-Leo, come on now, focus - Piper says to Leo. Prue tries to telekinetically loosen Coles' grip on Phoebe but it doesn't work. Piper jumps on Cole's back. Leo tries to blow up the Siren but misses
-Hurry! - both Piper and Prue say to Leo. Phoebe falls unconscious. Leo blows up the Siren. Piper gets off Cole and Cole lets go of Phoebe. He moves away
-Phoebe, wake up. Come on, come on, wake up. Phoebe - Piper says
-Oh, no - Cole says
-Bastard! - Prue says through clenched teeth and throws Cole telekinetically across the room
-Heal her - Leo says to Piper
-What? - Piper exlaims
-You can do it - Leo encourages her. Piper holds her hands above Phoebe and heals her. Phoebe wakes up
-Hey, how you doing? - Piper asks Phoebe as Prue puts her arm around her. Phoebe sits up and looks at Cole
-Phoebe... I didn't mean to. I'm sorry - Cole says and disappears
At the Manor Piper and Leo are in the kitchen watching the rooster
-I'm a nag - Piper says
-No, you're not - Leo assures her
-Yeah, I am and that's why we don't have our powers back yet because I'm a nag and I never learn - Piper says
-Piper, I am the reason why we don't have our powers back. I've been an insensitive lout and I clearly haven't gotten... - Leo tries to say but Piper interrupts him
-Leo, your work is very important - she says as the white lights appear behind them. Prue and Paige walk in
-Not more important than my family - Leo says
-Uh, guys? - Prue tries to get their attention
-I mean, you're pregnant and you need me and I should've understood that instead of... - Leo tries to say but Piper interrupts him again
-But I could've been a little more patient
-Guys? - Paige says
-What? - both Piper and Leo ask as the white lights hit them and knock the to the floor
-I just thought you might wanna take cover - Paige remarks as they get up
-I'm not nauseous - Leo says
-Hey, I am! Wait, that's not good news - Piper says and rubs her stomach
-What about your powers? - Leo asks Piper. She throws a bagel and blows it up
-Very nice - she says to herself and smiles
-No more floral arrangements - Prue comments
-Yeah, I guess I got in touch with my inner Whitelighter - Piper says with a pointed look at Paige
-Yeah, helping Melissa helped me too. It's good to know I have it in me - Paige says and leaves the kitchen.
-I'm gonna call Andy and tell him it's safe to come home - Prue says and also leaves the kitchen. Piper and Leo smile at each other
-What? - Leo asks Piper
-Voulez-vous coucher avec moi? - Piper asks Leo
-Ooh, mais ou - he answers. Piper giggles and they leave the kitchen
At The Bay Mirror Phoebe's at her office flipping through her mail. There's a knock at the door and Cole walks in
-Hey, look who's back to using doors - Phoebe says
-Yeah, I'm trying to, uh, limit my use of powers - Cole says
-Probably a wise decision - Phoebe agrees
-So, uh, did you get my flowers? - Cole asks her
-Yep. "Sorry I tried to strangle you"? Probably not a card that the florist gets to write every day, huh? - Phoebe asks
-I didn't... - Cole starts but Phoebe interrupts him
-I know. I know you're sorry, I know you were under the Siren's spell
-You do know her magic feeds on love - Cole says
-Cole... - Phoebe starts
-She couldn't have lured us if we didn't love each other - Cole tries to reason with Phoebe
-Right. So once again our love was nearly fatal - Phoebe retorts
-I never would've hurt you if I wasn't under her spell - Cole says
-Most men don't try to kill their wives when they're under the Siren's spell. Most men just kiss and die. But because you're a demon... - Phoebe says
-I'm not... - Cole starts but Phoebe interrupts him
-Okay, well, because you have demonic powers and a lot of them, you became a bigger threat than the Siren. And that's only one way out of a thousand that your powers can turn against me - Phoebe says
-I guess I didn't want you to be right - Cole says
-Neither did I - Phoebe admits.
Sorry it took me so long to write this...exams, couple of weddings, you know - personal stuff... I'll update when I have time...thanks for the reviews so far...and I'm sorry but I'll have to disappoint all those Cole fans but I'm following the series which means he'll die the same way he did in the show...maybe I'll change the very end but that episode'll basically stay the same...thanks for reading and see you soon..I hope :-)
P.S. I'm skipping "Witches in Tights"...next one is "The Eyes Have It"
