I Hate You, I Love You
[Scene: Manor. Basement.]
(Patience is in the basement. She is looking at Sirius. He signals her to come at her and she does so. She starts throwing punches and kicks at him but he dodges all her throws. He throws an energy ball at her and she goes flying back against the wall. She jumps to her feet and tries to make an energy ball. A spark forms in her hand and disappears. She kneels on the ground. Sirius glimmers into Cole and he walks over to Patience.)
Cole: I told you that you couldn't use your powers. (He picks her up.)
Patience: It's been a week. I should've be back to normal the first or second day. It doesn't make sense.
Cole: Maybe it's permanent.
Patience: I have to get better. (She really snapped at him.) I'm sorry. I just feel so helpless.
Cole: We'll get them back. Don't worry.
Patience: And when I do get them back, I'm going to kill Sirius. I've never been so embarrassed in my life.
Cole: Maybe you should change your pajamas before you go after demons. (Patience smiles.) Let's get something to eat. (They both walk upstairs.)
Patience: I think I killed the Santa Claus.
Cut to: [Underworld.]
(Patience and Cole are being seen in a cauldron. The onlooker waves his hands and the picture disappears.)
Tempus: I have a way of getting your powers back, my child. Your father will help you and me. All you have to do is be patient. After all, that is your name. (He smiles.)
Opening Credits
Cut to: [Manor. Kitchen.]
(There's a big crash from when Patience hit the wall. Piper and Paige look towards the basement door. Piper goes back to cooking.)
Piper: There goes the Santa Clause decoration.
Paige: She's really been at it since Sirius got her. You think she'd be resting from all those metal rods.
Piper: Well, that's what happens when you mix a witch and a demon. You get a stubborn half-witch half-... demon.
Paige: Speaking of witch, where is the loving mother?
Piper: She's at the Bay Mirror. (Paige looks at the clock.)
Paige: At eight at night?
Piper: She's trying to sort things out. She just broke up with Jason, found out he was working with the Source of all evil and tried to kill her future daughter, and, on top of all that, she's been stress out about her powers.
Paige: Well, if she don't come home soon, she's going to miss dinner. (Patience and Cole swing the basement door open and walk in.)
Cole: At least we won't miss it. (He grabs a plate and tries to dish up but Piper swats his hand with a spoon.) Ow!
Piper: Not until everyone comes.
Cole: Who are we waiting for? (Leo orbs in with Wyatt and Chris.)
Piper: Hi, honey. (She kisses him and then kisses Wyatt and Chris.) How are my little angles?
Leo: They're really hungry. They're growing boys. I can set up the table.
Paige: Don't bother. I've done it all ready. You guys can sit down. (Everyone goes into the dinning room except Patience. She holds the spot where Cole hit her.) Aren't you going to eat?
Patience: No, thanks. I'm not feeling too good.
Piper: You should eat something. You need some energy.
Patience: Food isn't going to bring my powers back. (She tries to shimmer out but she falls to the ground. Paige and Piper help her up.) I can't even shimmer. I guess I'll have to get upstairs the old fashion way. Tell Phoebe goodnight for me. (She walks out the kitchen and upstairs.)
Paige: Is she putting on too much makeup or is she that pale?
Piper: It's better than what she use to look like. We need to serve this food before it gets cold. (They both grab some dishes of food and carry it to the dinning room.) I hope Phoebe gets home soon.
Cut to: [Bay Mirror. Phoebe's Office.]
(Phoebe is typing her advice to her readers. She looks really concentrated and tired. Elise walks in and watches her work.)
Elise: Isn't it a little late to be working? (Phoebe looks up and sighs.)
Phoebe: I just wanted to catch up on my work for tomorrow.
Elise: You're three days ahead. You don't need to catch up. You were trying to get your mind off of something.
Phoebe: No, I wasn't. I just like to stay ahead.
Elise: Well, it's a waste of time thinking about Jason now. He's long gone and you have a new life ahead of you. Why don't you go home and get some rest. Tomorrow's another big day. (She leaves the room.)
Phoebe: Go home. (She pulls a picture out of her and Cole.) How am I suppose to go home to him? (She puts it back and starts working again.)
Cut to: [Cole's Penthouse.]
(Patience is sleeping in her room. She's tossing and turning. She's having a dream.)
Cut to: [Dream.]
(Patience is fighting Sirius in the manor. The Source is holding Phoebe. Patience tries to keep up with Sirius but he's too fast. He punches her and she falls on a table. Sirius walks towards her and she gets up. She tries to make an energy ball but she just collapses again.)
Sirius: Hmm. You're still powerless. I'm not surprised. You were always weak. You could never match up to my powers. (She tries to get up but she can't.)
Patience: (In her mind.) Why can't I move?
Sirius: You've become so weak you can't even lift a finger. (He grabs her by the neck and lifts her of the ground. She tries to break free but she can't even fight back. He strangles her as she remains paralyzed.) This is way too easy. (He drops her and pulls out a knife. He walks up to Phoebe and puts it against her neck.) This is the best way of causing pain. (He thrusts it into her heart and she falls to the ground.)
Cut to: [Penthouse.]
Patience: NO! (Patience is sitting up in her bed, sweating, panting and shaking. Cole runs in and tries to calm her down.)
Cole: Patience, it's alright. It was just a dream. Calm down. (Patience looks at her hand then at Cole.)
Patience: It wasn't just a dream. I have to get my powers back, and fast.
Cole: I think I know how.
Cut to: [Tempus's Lair.]
(Cole shimmers in and looks around for Tempus.)
Cole: Tempus, where are you? (Nothing happens.) I need a favor. You said I could come to you if I had a problem.
Tempus: I did say that, didn't I? (He comes out of the shadows.) Hello, old friend. How have you been?
Cole: Good. I've been living a great life. Someone failed to tell me that the girl I was suppose to kill was my daughter. He also forgot to tell me that I had her with Phoebe.
Tempus: I'm sorry. What's done is done. But you said you needed a favor. So, let's talk. I'll see what I can do for you.
Cole: My daughter, Patience, was attacked by Sirius. He stabbed her with a poisoned athame. The poison made her so weak that she can't use her powers. I thought that maybe you could make her stronger.
Tempus: It would take years, almost a hundred.
Cole: She has my blood. She's a demon and demons live forever. Please, if you don't help her, she won't be able to protect the sisters.
Tempus: I'm suppose to be responsible for the Charmed Ones safety. I don't know if you forgot, but I'm also a demon.
Cole: Think of it this way. If you help her become stronger, she can be a very powerful source of power. She'll be able to over through the Source.
Tempus: I'm the Source's ally now. Maybe she could help him. I'll train Patience for you.
Cole: You have to put up a guard against the Source or any of his servants so she doesn't get killed.
Tempus: She will be off limits. Just bring her here.
Cole: Thank you, Tempus. I owe you. (Cole shimmers out.)
Tempus: You have no idea.
Cut to: [Manor. Attic. Morning.]
(Patience is upstairs looking in the Book of Shadows when Piper comes in.)
Piper: How did you get here?
Patience: I had Leo bring me. Do you need something?
Piper: No, I came up here because I needed to get a schedule book for the club. I left a spare one up here. You want to go see Three Days Grace?
Patience: No, thanks. I need to do some research. (Piper walks up to her and looks in the book. She sees that she's looking at Sirius.)
Piper: I don't think you're going to find any more information on him.
Patience: I know. The only way I can kill him is if I get his flesh.
Piper: Can't we use Cole's flesh?
Patience: No, I already asked dad and he wasn't a blood brother with him. (Paige orbs in.) Did you find anything?
Paige: No, I couldn't even get close.
Piper: You sent her to get the flesh?
Patience: Yeah, sorry.
Paige: It's ok. Is Phoebe up yet?
Piper: She's getting ready for work.
Patience: Is she alright?
Piper: Yeah, she's just been spending a lot of time at the office. What time did she get back last night?
Paige: It must have been eleven before she walked in. (Phoebe walks in at that moment.) Speaking of which?
Piper: Good morning.
Phoebe: Hey, what's going on? (She sees Patience looking in the book.) Shouldn't you be resting? You look white.
Patience: Maybe it's because I'm Caucasian. I'm just looking up ways to...
Paige: Kill Sirius?
Patience: Kill wasn't what I was looking for.
Piper: Yeah, she wants to mutilate him.
Patience: That's what I was looking for.
Phoebe: Forget it. You're not going near him without your powers.
Patience: I might not ever get my powers back.
Phoebe: That's fine with me.
Patience: You don't have your powers back and that doesn't stop you.
Phoebe: I can levitate.
Patience: Hardly. You can't control it. And when you do manage to, you can only do it for about five seconds. You're just as powerless as me.
Piper: She's been a witch longer than you. Besides, she only used to have the power of premonition.
Patience: I have to do something. If I can't get my powers back, then I won't be able to protect you. (Cole shimmers in.) Hi, dad.
Cole: Hey.
Phoebe: Where have you been?
Cole: I've been looking for a way to get Patience's powers back. (Patience turns her head quickly to him.)
Patience: What? But how?
Cole: You remember Tempus?
Piper: The time demon? Yeah, we killed him.
Phoebe: No, we didn't. We just weakened him. What about Tempus?
Cole: He has the power to make Patience strong enough to use her powers. The poison will still be there but you'll be able to overcome it. The only way you can do it though is if you train with him.
Patience: Great, let's go.
Phoebe: I don't think so.
Patience: Why not?
Phoebe: This is a demon we're talking about, a very powerful one. He has ties with the Source. We can't trust him.
Cole: He promised me he would put an anti-Source guard on Patience, at least until the training is over.
Phoebe: No, I don't like it.
Patience: But mom?
Phoebe: No, I don't want you getting yourself killed.
Piper: I think it's a good idea.
Phoebe: What?
Paige: I agree with Piper. It's the only way Patience can get her powers back.
Phoebe: We can wait. Maybe the poison will wear off.
Patience: And what if it doesn't?
Phoebe: It will.
Patience: Not in time. The Source will send someone after me and I'll be helpless. He'll kill you. The only other way it will wear off is if Sirius gives me an antidote. I don't want you getting hurt because of me. This way, he won't come near you until I have my powers back. Then I'll have a chance. If I wait, he'll kill us all. Please, let me do this.
Phoebe: All right. (She goes up to Patience and hugs her.) You better come back.
Patience: I promise. (She grabs Cole's hand.) Let's do this. (They shimmer out.)
Phoebe: I hope I'm doing the right thing.
Piper: Don't worry. She'll be back. (Phoebe hugs Paige and Piper.)
Paige: She'll be back stronger.
Cut to: [Tempus's Lair.]
(Tempus is walking around when Sirius shimmers in.)
Sirius: What are you doing? (Tempus ignores him.) You're suppose to be helping us, not the witch. Why are you giving her training?
Tempus: I told Cole I'd do him a favor. He wants me to help Patience and that's what I'm going to do.
Sirius: You're going to give her the same training you gave me. You can't do that! I want her dead!
Tempus: She's going to be a great power. If I help her, she'll be a great asset to evil. You have no power here. You better leave before they come.
Sirius: I can kill her now.
Tempus: Unfortunately, there's a no kill policy for her. Now go. (He shimmers out and Cole and Patience shimmer in.) You're here. Welcome.
Cole: This is Patience. She needs you to help her. (Tempus walks up to her and looks at her.)
Tempus: You look like a very powerful girl. I can see it in you. But can you handle my training? That's the question.
Patience: I want you to teach me. You can control time and I have all the time in the world.
Tempus: I must warn you, my training could prove fatal. It is very enduring. Can you handle a lot of pain?
Patience: I was tortured by the Source and Sirius. Does that tell you anything?
Tempus: We shall see. (He waves his hand and Sirius appears.) Kill him. (Patience goes at him. She tries to hit him but he just dodges her. She goes flying back. She gets back up and goes at him again. Tempus starts to talk to Cole.) She is strong. That punch should have knocked her out.
Cole: Can you do it?
Tempus: It'll be tough, but it can be done.
Cole: How can I repay you?
Tempus: I'll find a way. (He holds out his hand and Cole shakes it. Suddenly, Cole starts to shake. He starts to glow and he kneels down. Tempus finally lets go.) Do as I tell you. (He waves his hand across Cole's face and smiles.) Go. (Cole shimmers out. Tempus waves his hand. Patience goes to kick Sirius and almost gets him but he disappears.) You are very strong. You should consider yourself lucky. We have a lot of work to do. (He waves his hand again and a fury appears.) Kill her. (The fury goes after Patience but she just kicks her and snaps her neck.)
Patience: That's it? That was the training?
Tempus: That was just a warm up. (He waves his hand and five demons appear.) Here's your first test. Kill her. (They all charge.)
Patience: Here we go. (She dodges them all. She looks back and gets punched.)
Cut to: [Manor. Living room.]
Paige: Please, it isn't that hard of a job. You just sit in an office all day and help out kids.
Genie: I hate kids. I don't take care of kids. I grant wishes. I travel a lot. I don't have time.
Paige: All right. I wish you were a headmaster for magic school. (He looks at her then smiles.) What? I made a wish.
Genie: You're not my master. Good day. (He crosses his arms and disappears.)
Paige: You don't have a master. You're free. (She sits down and Piper walks in.)
Piper: Having difficulties?
Paige: I can't find a headmaster. The people that want the job are demons and the people that don't want it are perfect. Why can't I find anyone?
Piper: You're just looking in the wrong places. Maybe you should take a break.
Paige: Piper, I have three weeks to find a headmaster. Next week, I'll be too busy to look for one. I can't take a break. I'm just so stressed out.
Piper: It's ok. Why don't you go spend some time with Richard? You haven't seen him in ages.
Paige: Maybe I should. Yeah, I'm going to do that right now. Thanks, Piper. (She orbs out.)
Piper: Anytime. Finally, I have the whole house to myself. Time to clean. (She gets the vacuum cleaner out and starts vacuuming.)
Cut to: [Richard's Mansion.]
(Richard is doing some work in the house when Cole shimmers in. Richard keeps working. He turns around and sees Cole.)
Richard: Hi. Do I know you?
Cole: I don't think so. I'm Cole Turner.
Richard: Oh, you're Phoebe's boyfriend.
Cole: Yeah, nice to meet you. (He shakes Richard's hand and Richard glows.) I have a job for you. I need you to keep Paige busy. Got it? (He shimmers out and Paige orbs in.)
Paige: Hey, Richard. (Richard walks towards her.) Something wrong? You look upset.
Richard: Yeah, (He grabs her by the throat.) I am upset. (He starts throwing her across the room.)
Paige: Richard, what's wrong with you?
Richard: How come you've been ignoring me? (He grabs her and starts strangling her.)
Paige: Get... off! (She grabs a vase and smashes it on his head. He falls to the ground and rubs his head.)
Richard: Paige, what are you doing here?
Paige: You just tried to kill me. You don't remember?
Richard: I remember Cole coming in here.
Paige: Cole.
Cut to: [Manor. Wyatt and Chris's room.]
(Leo is sitting with Wyatt and Chris when Cole shimmers in.)
Leo: Hey, Cole.
Cole: Hey, Leo. How you doing?
Leo: Good. (He senses something wrong.) You ok?
Cole: Yeah. I'm fine. (Leo hears Paige calling.)
Leo: Paige is calling. She's in trouble.
Cole: I know. (He grabs Leo and he faints.) Too bad you won't be able to help. (He hears Piper coming upstairs and shimmers out. Piper comes into the room and smiles.)
Piper: Oh, my little boys are so tuckered out. (He kisses Leo and leaves.)
Cut to: [Bay Mirror. Phoebe's Office.]
(Phoebe is working very hard again. Cole shimmers in but she doesn't notice. He walks behind her and puts his hands around her neck. He starts squeezing. She tries to scream but she can't.)
Phoebe: (Gasping for air.) Cole.
Cole: Listen to me, Phoebe. Your sisters are all against you. (She starts to glow. He loosens his grip.) They want Patience to get stronger so she can defeat you. Cole turned them against you. You have to kill me to save them. (He sets down a knife and shimmers out. Phoebe looks around and gets her things ready. She grabs the knife and puts it in her purse. She shuts everything down and rushes out the door. She almost is out when Elise stops her.)
Elise: Phoebe, where are you going?
Phoebe: I'm taking a break. I got to go home and take care of my boyfriend.
Elise: That's great. You finally forgotten about Jason then?
Phoebe: Who? (She runs out the door.)
Elise: That's wonderful!
Cut to: [Manor. Living room.]
(Piper is cleaning when Paige orbs in.)
Paige: Something's wrong.
Piper: Yeah, it's way to quiet here and everyone's working. You can't get much more wrong than that.
Paige: No, Richard just tried to strangle me.
Piper: What? Are you sure?
Paige: Yeah, I wouldn't say it if I didn't have hand marks on my neck. Then he said he didn't remember anything.
Piper: That's strange. Maybe he's upset that you haven't seen him in a while.
Paige: Get this. He said that he saw... (Cole shimmers in.) Cole?
Cole: You have to help me. Phoebe's trying to kill me. She's crazy.
Paige: Phoebe's seen the light.
Piper: Why would she want to kill you, Cole?
Cole: Isn't it obvious? She's possessed. Something evil got to her.
Paige: Ok, we'll help you.
Cole: Thanks. Oh, she's coming this way and she has a knife. (Piper and Paige look at each other.)
Paige: Leo?
Piper: He's sleeping. I'll go get him. (She runs upstairs and Phoebe comes in. She charges at Cole.)
Paige: Phoebe, stop. (She tries to stab him but misses. Paige grabs her. Cole pushes them both off and they go flying into the wall. Phoebe gets up and looks around.)
Phoebe: What's going on? (She looks at Paige and screams. Her knife is lodged in Paige's ribs.) Leo! Leo!
Cole: Phoebe, you killed her. (She looks at Cole. Piper and Leo run in and sees what happened.)
Piper: Phoebe, what happened?
Phoebe: I-I killed her. (Leo takes the knife out and starts to heal her. She gets up off the ground.) Oh, my god.
Cole: I told you. She's possessed.
Piper: Cole, shut up. What happened?
Paige: Phoebe came in here trying to kill Cole and she accidentally stabbed me.
Phoebe: I'm evil.
Piper: No, you're not. You're just being controlled. We can find a way to help you in the book.
Paige: What are we going to do till then?
Phoebe: You're going to have to tie me up. (Everyone looks at her.)
Piper: Phoebe, we're not going to tie you up.
Phoebe: You have to. I might attack you again.
Cole: She's right. Who knows when she'll lose control again? We can put her in the basement until we find a spell.
Piper: Alright. (Phoebe gets up.) Someone go find some restraints. We'll meet you in the basement. (They go down to the basement.)
Paige: I have some handcuffs in my bedroom. (She runs upstairs. Cole shimmers out.)
Cut to: [Basement.]
(Piper grabs a chair and drags it to the middle. She's having a hard time doing it.)
Piper: Ok, you shouldn't be able to move that chair. It's almost two hundred pounds. (Phoebe sits in the chair and Paige comes down with the handcuffs. Phoebe puts her hands behind her back and Paige puts the handcuffs on her. She puts one on, puts it over the bar on the chair and then puts the other on her other wrist. Cole shimmers in with a rope. He ties it around her ankles and then ties it around the legs.) Can you get out? (Phoebe tries to wiggle out but it doesn't work.)
Phoebe: Nope, totally secured. Thanks, guys. I wouldn't want to hurt anyone.
Paige: No problem. We'll be upstairs if you need anything. (She hands the key to Cole.) You watch her. (They all go upstairs. When the door closes, he starts chanting.)
Phoebe: What are you doing?
Cole: Making sure we can stay her alone.
Phoebe: Cole, you're scaring me. (Cole unties the ropes and unlocks the handcuffs. He gets her up and puts the handcuffs back on.)
Cole: You should be.
Cut to: [Attic.]
Piper: Here's one. Extracting an evil spirit. Oh, wait, you have to send both spirits out. That would kill her. (Paige is pacing in the room.) What's wrong?
Paige: Maybe Phoebe isn't the one that we should be worrying about. When I went to see Richard, he returned to normal when he got knocked out. The same thing happened to Phoebe.
Piper: So, what are you saying?
Paige: Cole was at Richard's house, and we know that Cole saw Phoebe.
Piper: You think that Cole possessed Richard and Cole. Why would he do that?
Paige: Maybe to separate us and then finish us off later.
Piper: No, he wouldn't... (Phoebe screams.)
Paige: He would. (They run downstairs.)
Cut to: [Basement.]
(Phoebe hits the wall. Cole walks towards her while she tries to break free from the cuffs. He picks her up and punches her in the stomach. Piper and Paige run down the stairs.)
Piper: Cole, stop. (He waves his hands and they stop moving.) I can't move.
Paige: I can't either.
Cole: That should hold you. Now you can watch your sisters die. (He makes an energy ball. He gets ready to throw it when Phoebe stops him.)
Phoebe: Cole, wait. (He turns around.) You don't want to kill them. You want me. (The energy ball disappears.) Cole, you hate me and I hate you. How we end up having a child together I don't know. Why don't you kill me instead? (He goes up to her and puts his hands around her neck.) Go ahead. (He lifts her off the ground and starts to strangle her. Paige and Piper just stare in horror while Phoebe lets him kill her.) Cole, (choking voice.) I... love... you. (She faints.)
Piper: No!
Paige: Cole, stop it. (Cole lets her down and unlocks the handcuffs. He holds her in her arms and kisses her. Phoebe's hands start to move up to his head and she starts to kiss him, too.) What? (Paige and Piper can move now. They look in disgust as they watch their sister kiss a demon.) What do we do?
Piper: We vomit.
Paige: And?
Piper: That's all I can think of. (Cole and Phoebe separate.)
Cole: I love you, too. (They look over at Piper and Paige.)
Phoebe: Hey, what's wrong with you? You look a little white.
Cut to: [P3. Nighttime.]
(Three Days Grace is playing I Hate Everything About You. Everyone is dancing and singing. Piper and Leo are serving drinks. Paige is making a drink for Cole and Phoebe.)
Paige: Is everything back to normal?
Phoebe: Yeah, now that we're not trying to kill each other.
Cole: I couldn't help it. Tempus put a spell on me.
Phoebe: Well, let's hope he doesn't kill Patience.
Cole: He won't. (They kiss each other.)
Paige: Hey, get a room. (They start laughing.)
Phoebe: I got swept off my feet. (Paige sees Richard walk in.)
Paige: My turn. (She walks to Richard and kisses him. They start dancing. Phoebe sees Leo kissing Piper.)
Cole: What now?
Phoebe: We work everything out. I love you.
Cole: I love you, too. (They start kissing again.)
Cut to: [Tempus's Lair.]
(Tempus smiles. He looks at Patience. She just got done killing the demons.)
Patience: I get it. You wanted to make sure they got together. You weren't trying to kill them. You thought they wouldn't start to see their love and I wouldn't be born.
Tempus: I thought they would eventually kill each other. I had to see if they really loved each other.
Patience: Great. Is that it?
Tempus: We have a long way to go. (He brings in an upper level demon and they start fighting.) You have a long journey ahead of you.
The End.
