"Christmas is supposed to be a day of celebration because our savior was born this day in Bethlehem. Instead, we are gathered here today to mourn the life of a young man. He was a bright little boy and always very inquisitive." The Mother Superior says as she dabs at her eyes with a white handkerchief.
"He will be missed and may his soul rest in peace," the Mother Superior says.
Ailin's casket is lowered into the ground and dirt thrown over it.

"How do you feel?" Piper asks Wyatt as they walk back to the car after the service.
"He was young, probably as old as me," Wyatt says.
"It just seems like a waste of a life," Wyatt continues.
"It's okay to cry," Piper says as she puts her arm around Wyatt's shoulder.
"It's just that I could have been the one in that casket," Wyatt says.
"You aren't," Piper says.
"When I thought I was going to die Aunt Prue came to me and helped me defeat Ailin," Wyatt says.
"Prue? You saw Prue? How is she?" Piper asks.
"She's happy," Wyatt says.
"Good," Piper says.
"Also, how did you know his name?" Piper asks.
"It is in the funeral service program," Wyatt says.

"Hey, Chris!" Harry calls.
"Yes, Harry," Chris says as he opens the door to the Sanctuary and lets in Harry and the Charmed Ones.
"Are you done with your homework?" Harry asks.
"Yes," Chris says.
"Excellent!" Harry says.
"Why?" Chris asks.
"Now you can party," Harry says.
"Why?" Chris asks.
"Wyatt defeated the new evil. It's safe for Aisling and her parents to return to their house and perform their daily activities and for you to return home," Harry says.
"Aisling and Mr. and Mrs. O'Keeffe!" Chris yells.
Aisling and her parents come to the door.
"You can move back home and return to your life now," Chris says.
"Is this true?" Laura asks Paige.
"Yes," Paige answers with a smile.
"Then, orb us away!" Laura says and Paige obeys.
When Paige returns from the O'Keeffe residence, Piper, Phoebe and Paige use a power of three spell to erase the Sanctuary from existence until it is needed again.
Afterwards, they return to their respective homes to get ready for Piper's Christmas dinner at the Halliwell Manor.

"May the Lord bless this Christmas dinner," Harry says as Mr. Victor Bennett (Piper's and Phoebe's father) quietly slips into the chair next to Chris and far away from Leo.
"Amen!" the family says.
"This is delicious, Piper" Harry says as he takes a bite of the Christmas goose.
"Thank you," Piper says.
After dinner, Piper puts all of the boxes that were under the Christmas tree in a big pile in the center of the living room and hands a package to each person. When its Pandora's turn, she tears the package apart and eagerly opens her gift from Harry to discover a pair of diamond earrings, shaped like a unicorn.
"Thanks, Uncle Harry," Pandora says as she gives Harry a hug.
"You're welcome, Pan," Harry says.

Chris places all of the homework he missed and the homework he supposed to do for the rest of the school year on his teacher's desk.
Mrs. Hayes skims through the papers and places them in a manila folder.
"Mr. Halliwell, will you come here please," Mrs. Hayes says as Chris is exiting the classroom.
"Yes, Mrs. Hayes?" Chris asks as he approaches her desk.
"I'll look at these papers in greater detail, but I think you will be able to pass this class, despite your long absence. Also, welcome back, Mr. Halliwell." Mrs. Hayes says warmly with a smile.
"Thanks, it's good to be back," Chris says.

"I'm coming," Aisling shouts.
"Oh, hey, Chris!" Aisling says when she sees Chris on the doorstep.
"Come in and make yourself at home," Aisling says.
"Can I get you anything?" Aisling asks Chris.
"No, I just wanted to give you this package," Chris says as takes a seat on the green sofa and hands Aisling a small package.
She opens the package to find a 24 karat gold band with a white diamond on it and the words Chris and Aisling engraved on the inside of the gold band.
"It's a promise ring. I know we're not ready to get married, yet, but I just wanted you to have something that tells you that I will always love you," Chris says.
"It's wonderful," Aisling says as she puts the ring on her finger and kisses Chris.

"Harry!" Wyatt says in the mirror.
"Yes, your highness?" Harry says.
"Do you want the time-turner back?" Wyatt asks.
"Keep it to remember me and what it took to fulfill your destiny. Who knows when the next evil will surface," Harry says.
"Thanks, Uncle Harry!" Wyatt says.
"Finally, I'm your uncle," Harry says exasperatedly.

"So, do you still have the time-turner your Uncle Harry gave you, daddy?" blonde-haired, green-eyed Christina who is dressed in her pink pajamas and is wearing fluffy pink bunny slippers, asks as she plops down onto her bed.
"It is right here, Beautiful" Wyatt says as he lifts the chain from underneath his blue shirt.
"Think of all the time periods we can go to with it like the Regency era with its lords and ladies" Christina says dreamily.
"No, this is supposed to be there for the next evil," Wyatt says.
"I hope he never comes," Wyatt thinks.
"Good night, daddy!" Christina says.
"Good night, Beautiful!" Wyatt says as he tucks his daughter into bed and adds, "I love you!"
"I love you, too, daddy," Christina whispers.
"This is the way life is supposed to be," Wyatt thinks.
