"Prue please make sure Phoebe finishes her homework this time. I'll be back around 10 after Bingo," Penny Halliwell called at 17-year-old Prue, her oldest granddaughter.

As soon as 11-year-old 5th grader Phoebe heard the front door close she made a dash for the back door.

"PRWUE!!! She ascaping again!" Little 2 and a half-year-old Paige Halliwell screamed through the house.

She had been standing at the door way watching her big sister Phoebe yell things at a piece of paper. Paige had just learned how to talk about 4 months before and was putting it to more good use then bad. Paige didn't quite understand why Prue and Grams got so mad when Phoebe left but she knew there was a lot of yelling involved. Paige hated the yelling the most.

Meanwhile in Prue's room...

Prue Halliwell age 17 was talking with her boyfriend Andy Trudeau on the phone.

"So we're on for the movies tomorrow?" Andy asked from the other end.

"Yes babe," Prue answered.

She stuffed her pom poms into her backpack. Prue was head cheerleader at her high school as well as Straight A student and, even though she denied it, head Prep.

"Prue Please make sure Phoebe finishes her homework this time. I'll be back around 10 after bingo!" she heard Grams call from downstairs.

"Grams?" Andy asked.

"Yep. Her and that Thursday night bingo," Prue replied, smiling.

"PWRUE!!! She ascaping again!" Prue heard her baby sister Paige scream.

"Crap. Gotta go Andy. My baby sisters calling," Prue replied. Andy smiled and said a quick good-bye before hanging up. Prue clicked off on the phone and ran downstairs.

When Prue got there Paige was underneath a laundry basket with a 50-pound box of detergent on the top of it trapping her inside. The door to the backyard was wide open. Tears ran silently off of Paige's face but she dared not make a sound. She knew yelling was coming.

"Oh baby don't cry," Prue replied getting Paige out of her predicament. Paige covered her face with her hands and Prue lifted her. "Baby Paigey I get to tickle," Prue said in a singsong voice and tickled Paige's little ears. Paige giggled and stopped crying. "Okay baby. I am going to put you with Piper and Prue's going to go find Phoebe," Prue said taking Paige up the stairs.

Meanwhile in Piper's room...

13-year-old 7th grader Piper Halliwell finally finished her math and turned the TV on. Paige's Sesame Street tape was still in her VCR from last night. It was the only thing that would calm her down.

Flashback

"Piper, take Paige. This is going to be an ugly one," Prue replied handing little Paige to Piper. Paige was crying against Prue's chest. Piper knew Prue was talking about Phoebe and Grams. Today Phoebe had started another fight at school. This time putting the little boy she had hurt in the hospital. Prue smiled at Piper trying to make her feel better but in reality Piper and Prue hated the fighting that went on just as much as Paige did. Prue closed the door and Piper put in Paige's video trying to calm her down. Paige fell asleep onto Piper's chest and just in time too. Phoebe started cussing things out at Grams. Piper heard the chiming of the grandfather clock and then something shatter. Piper felt a painful lurch in her stomach then forced herself into an uneasy sleep. She woke up to the front door slamming. Prue had crept into Piper's room and slid under the covers with her and Paige. She cuddled Piper and Paige into her arms and whispered everything would be okay.
