Sight Unseen
P3
Phoebe is at the bar and he looks at her watch and she looks at Abby "Abby, maybe you should get Sean another drink." Phoebe says.
Abby looks over at a guy sitting at the other end of the bar "Okay, but that's over the club limit."
Phoebe says "Yeah, its okay. We'll get him a cab home."
Piper approaches the bar "Prue still hasn't called?"
Phoebe says to her "Nope. Look at that poor guy."
"You think she stood him up?" Piper asks.
Phoebe says "Not deliberately. I just think that since we've been back from pilgrim times, she's been on a demon bender."
Piper says "You think? You mean, because that's all she ever talks about?"
Phoebe says "Yeah, well, how do we explain this to him? Prue was supposed to take his photo for the magazine."
"Abbey, better make that a double. I'm gonna call Prue." Piper says. She picks up the phone
Phoebe says "Well, speaking of a big chill is Leo keeping you warm?"
Piper says "Nope."
Phoebe says "Honey, are you still afraid that they're watching you?" she giggles.
Piper says "What am I supposed to think? The last two times they orbed him out was right in the middle of…it."
"So what does he say?" Phoebe asks.
Piper says "He swears they're not watching but he's a guy, he'll say anything. The point is I think they're watching and when I think, I can't, I can't, I can't concentrate."
Phoebe says "Hmm, well, at least you have the option to concentrate." Piper dials a number on the phone. "If Cole and I continue this flirting tango thing, I'm gonna have to start concentrating on myself."
Prue on the other line says "Hello?"
Piper says "Prue, hey, where are you?"
Prue is in a car and says "Hey, I'm on my way home from work. Hey, you will never guess what I found on the internet. Remember Micah?"
Piper says "The 17th century hottie? Wow, it's hard to forget."
Phoebe looks at Sean and says "Okay, enough about the past, tell her about the present."
Prue says "Well, I traced his ancestors and found an entire history of the village that we visited. I figured it might give us a clue to the identity of the demon that the triad sent to kill us."
Piper says "Prue, honey, aren't you forgetting something?"
"No, my photo shoot's not until tomorrow." Prue informs her.
"No, I mean something else. Like, uh, your client for the Magazine." Piper says
Prue realizing she missed her session says "Oh, oh, Sean, oh. Alright, uh, just give him a drink."
Piper says "If we give him anymore we're gonna have to send him to an A.A. meeting."
"How long's he been there?" Prue asks
Piper says "I'd say about an hour and 327 peanuts."
Prue says "Alright, so what do I do?"
Piper says "Well, remorse is good and attendance is better."
Prue says "Piper, I'm half way across town, besides, I've gotta go home and-and look up all this demon stuff."
Piper says "Well, can't it wait?"
Prue says "What? And you think the triad will? Right, we have to get them before they get to us. Just tell him that I got hung up at work and that I'll make it up to him."
Piper says "Alrighty then." She hangs up.
"Is she okay?" Phoebe asks.
Piper says "Mmm hmm, I guess." she walks over to Sean. "Uh, Sean? Hi, there's been a slight glitch. Uh, sometimes my sister gets hung up at work and she sorta has a one track mind."
Sean says "It's not a problem, I understand. Tell her just to give me a call." He leaves.
Piper says "Not a problem." She turns to Phoebe and says "He took that well."
Phoebe says "Well, he's had three drinks."
Piper says "So when does one track spill over into total obsession?"
Phoebe says "When you start forgetting about guys like Sean."
Somewhere outside
Michael and Zeke are standing on an old baseball field when Max flames in and grabs Michael. "Hey! What did I do now?" Michael says.
"Stop." Zeke says
"You are under…" Max says but is cut off.
"Let him go." Cole says coming into the distance
"Balthazar?" Max says and Michael freezes up and Max lets him go.
Cole looks at Michael and says "Go. Get out of here, my liege." Michael runs over to Zeke and flames out. "Rip the contract and leave him alone." Cole says shimmering out.
Manor: Porch
Prue is there and she notices the front door is open. She walks inside and sees all the mirrors are broken. She steps on some broken glass then she walks into the living room. Someone runs out of the closet and attacks her from behind and they roll over the couch. Prue is able to wave her arm using her power to send the attacker crashing through the window.
Opening Credits
Manor: Living room
Prue is sitting on the couch and Piper is sweeping up the glass. Phoebe comes in carrying an ice pack. Michael and Zeke walk down the stairs.
Phoebe says "Here, sweetie." She hands Prue the ice pack and she places it on her shoulder. "Are you feeling any better?" she asks.
Prue says "Yeah, I think I was more stunned then hurt. You know, it just happened so fast."
Piper says "It's eerie knowing somebody went through every room in the house smashing mirrors. Touching who knows what."
Phoebe adds to Pipers sentence "Fondling who knows what."
Piper says "It's just so creepy. At least nothing seems to be missing."
"Nope everything seems to be here." Michael says looking around.
"How do you know it wasn't a demon?" Prue asks.
"Because it probably wasn't." Michael says.
Phoebe agrees and says "Mmm, and demons don't usually fondle."
"And besides, the only demon that we know who used mirrors was Kali and we vanquished her sorry ass." Piper says sweeping up some more glass.
"Who?" Zeke asks.
"Mirror lady demon." Michael whispers in Zeke's ear.
Prue says "Yeah, by smashing her reflection in the mirror." Darryl and Andy come down the stairs. "I mean, I know she's supposed to be dead but so were the Grimlocks."
Darryl says "Please don't remind me about them."
"His first demons best not to mention it." Andy says walking into the room and sitting next to Prue.
Piper says "Did you two find anything?"
Darryl says "Just a bunch of fingerprints that don't match your samples. I'm gonna run it through the computer to see if any names pop up."
Prue says "They won't. I mean, hello, guys. Book of Shadows 101, mirrors. The portals through which evil enters."
Phoebe says "Yeah, but there are finger prints. Demons don't even usually have fingers."
"Hey." Michael says
"No offense." Phoebe says to him right away.
Darryl says "Well, on the human side of things, I need you guys to put together a grudge list of any enemies you have past or present."
Prue hands him a piece of paper "Already done."
Darryl is reading from the list "Abraxas, Barbas, Yama... What did you do? Date the united nations?"
Prue says to him "It's the demons, warlocks and various evil forces that we've faced in the last two years."
"That's not what he meant. He meant humans not demons." Andy says looking at the list.
Prue says "Okay, um, I'm gonna go hit the Book of Shadows and see if I can find anything about mirrors." Prue gets up and goes upstairs.
Phoebe says to the police men "Prue's been a little fixated lately."
"Do you think it was a human bad guy?" Piper asks Darryl and Andy
Darryl says "Any other house, yeah. Around here, you never know."
"Could have been." Andy says.
Prue yells from upstairs "Piper? Phoebe? Michael? Andy?"
Attic
Prue is standing there and Piper, Phoebe, Michael, Zeke, Andy and Darryl walk in.
"What, what is it?" Piper asks
Prue points to the door and says "That door was unlocked."
Darryl looks at it and says "So?"
"Why does it matter if it was unlocked or not?" Zeke asks.
Prue turns around and says "Because ever since a demon tried to steal the Book of Shadows a couple of weeks ago I've been locking it."
Darryl then says "You lock this door but you don't lock the front door?"
Piper says "I lock the front door."
Phoebe says "Me too. Mostly."
"Me too." Andy says
"I don't even use the doors." Michael says "Half the time." Andy and Darryl look at him. "Never mind." He says
"I don't. Why bother?" Prue says going back to the subject
"Because you're three young women with a teenage kid and his friend, and a police officer. In fact, your whole attitude about security baffles me. You have no alarm system, no dead bolts, no dog." Darryl explains.
Prue says "Darryl, we're three and a half witches and a police inspector. I think we can handle it."
Andy looks at the door and says "It looks like it hasn't been messed with."
"So what, you're thinking we're dealing with a lock-picking demon, Prue?" Phoebe asks
"Ha. Nice one." Michael says looking at her "Oh you're serious."
Piper looks around and says "It doesn't look like anything's missing from up here either."
Phoebe says "I just think it's ludicrous to rule out that a human could've done this."
Prue tells her "Yes, well, I think it's ludicrous to think that the triad has got nothing to do with it."
Piper says "Um, Darryl, why don't you go check on those fingerprints. We need to have a little conference here."
Darryl says "Okay. Good night."
Phoebe says "Night." Darryl leaves.
"Why is he always out of the loop in these situations for all we know it could be a human doing this." Michael says.
"Leo?" Prue yells to the ceiling.
"Uh, Prue? Maybe a little perspective here for a second." Piper says as Prue calls for Leo.
Prue turns around and yells "Leo!"
Leo orbs in "What? What is it? What is the problem?" he asks
Prue says "I need to know everything that you know about the triad."
Leo looks confused and says "You what?"
Piper giggles and grins at Leo "Hi."
Leo says "Hi."
Prue looks between the two of them and says "Okay, well, this really can't wait. You know, the triad sent somebody back in time and nearly wiped out our entire line. And I am willing to bet that it's the same demon that we found up here a couple of weeks ago." She picks up the Book of Shadows. "Now, if you guys don't wanna take that seriously that's your business. Me, I'm on a mission." Prue leaves.
"Someone is cranky" Michael says
"Totally." Zeke says.
"I'll go talk to her." Andy says walking out of the attic
Phoebe says "We really need to get her laid, huh?"
Piper and Leo grin at each other "Hi." Leo says. Piper giggles Leo and Piper stand close together.
Phoebe says "I think I'm gonna go see what Prue's up to." She leaves.
Piper says "So..."
Triad place
Three triad members are standing in a circle. Cole shows up in flames.
Triad #1 says "We grow impatient, Belthazor. We did not expect it to take this long. You had two years."
"By their time without success. I've had a month." Cole says
Triad #2 says "A month with two years worth of information. Information collected by the blood of demons before you."
Cole looks at one and says "The young one, Phoebe, is almost within my grasp."
Triad #3 says "That's not why we summoned you. We're assigning another."
Cole says "You're replacing me? We had a bargain. I get the Charmed Ones for you, you give me back-"
Triad #2 says "That bargain is in your best interests, not ours."
Triad #1 says "Don't look at it as replacement, Belthazor. Look at it as assistance."
Triad #2 says "However, if either of you should be caught, the same maxims supply. We can't risk either of you leading the Charmed Ones to us."
Cole says "May I know who you're sending?"
Triad #2 says "Sent, you mean."
Triad #1 says "Troxa has already started."
Manor
Manor: Porch
Troxa is there and turns invisible, he opens the door and walks inside.
Piper's room
Leo and Piper stumble in and they are kissing.
Piper says "Leo?"
Leo says "Piper?"
Piper stops kissing him and says "We can't."
Leo says "Yes, we can." He continues to kiss her but Piper stops him.
Piper says "No, I can't. I feel like I'm being watched."
"Piper, you have to get past this." Leo says.
Piper says "Yeah..." They continue kissing and lay down on the bed. The door opens slightly. "Okay, um, how about you tell them to look the other way?"
"They're not looking. How many times do we have to have this conversation?" Leo informs her
"Well, how do you know? How can you be sure?" Piper asks him.
Leo says "Because I told you, that's not what they do."
Piper says "Okay, then how do you explain the last two times, count two."
Leo says "That's shear coincidence. I'm telling you. Look, come on, Piper, we need to get past this."
Piper says "Yeah, and I need to feel like it's just you and me and not the whole universe watching." The door closes. "I'm sorry."
Leo says "It's okay. I guess I better go find Prue some answers."
Piper says "Yeah." They kiss and Leo orbs out in the middle. "Oohh!"
Attic
Prue is asleep in a chair. Michael is at the book with Zeke. Troxa, still invisible walks over to Prue and He picks up a pillow and holds it above her face. Andy walks in "Prue!" He yells and Prue wakes up in time to see the pillow float above her and uses her power it flies across the room. She stands up and looks around.
"Prue, Are you all right?" Michael asks looking in the book and she nods.
Foyer
Phoebe is answering the door and Cole is standing there "Cole, what are you doing here?"
Cole says "Are you alright? I just heard."
"Heard what?" Phoebe asks.
Prue, Michael, Zeke, Andy and Piper come down the stairs.
"Uh, about what happened, the break in. You guys okay?" Cole asks walking into the house.
Phoebe says "You came all the way over her for me? I mean, for w-we? For us?"
Cole asks Prue "Did you get a look of who it was?"
"No." Prue says answering his question.
Cole says "I'm gonna make a call. Get a patrol car to watch the place."
"Its all right, Cole I got it." Andy says.
"That's alright, actually. I think that we can handle it." Prue says "Besides, Inspector Trudeau is here so he has it under control too."
Cole says "No, you can't. I mean, you have no idea what kind of evil you're dealing with here."
"I think we do." Michael says.
Piper says "Yes, well, we were actually just discussing that, weren't we, Prue?"
The door opens and Cole sees it and It quickly closes.
Phoebe says "Um, do you want anything, Cole? Do you want some coffee or something?"
Prue says "Actually, Phoebe, that's not really a good idea. We have something very important that we have to discuss."
Cole says "That's alright. I-I really should get going anyway. It's late, I, um... Call me anytime."
Phoebe says "Yeah, I-I-I will. Thanks." Then He leaves the house and Phoebe turns to Prue "Okay, this better be good."
Prue says "Yeah, well, I was up in the attic and when I woke up there was a pillow hovering above my face about to smother me."
"It's true I was there." Zeke says
"And we saw it." Michael says backing Prue up.
"I saw it too." Andy says.
Piper says "A pillow?"
Phoebe says "Hovering?" Prue nods. "Well, that must be the infamous pillow-smothering demon."
Piper says "Maybe is was just a nightmare."
Prue says "It wasn't a nightmare and it certainly wasn't a joke. There's a demon after me or us, I know it." Prue goes back upstairs with Andy.
Phoebe says "Okay."
Porch
Cole is there looking around "Come out, come out wherever you are."
while still Invisible Troxa grabs Cole around the neck and pushes him against the wall and Troxa turns visible. "What do you think the triad will say when I tell them you saved the witches?" Troxa asks him.
Cole says "That I didn't want you to get them first."
Troxa lets go of his neck "You had your chances, Belthazor. Don't screw up mine again. I strike tomorrow night, you better not be there."
Cole says "You don't scare me, Troxa. You never did."
Troxa says "And you don't know how to defeat me, Belthazor, you never could. After all," he turns invisible "you can't fight what you can't see." Troxa pins him against the wall again. He lets go and Cole coughs. He hears someone coming and disappears. Phoebe opens the front door and looks around.
Manor: Kitchen
Phoebe and Piper are there standing at the counter and Piper's drinking some coffee.
Phoebe walks over to Piper "Give me a hit of that. Actually, no, just pour it down my throat."
"You didn't sleep either?" Piper asks.
Phoebe says "Not a wink. Thank god for make-up." Piper pours her some coffee. "Hey, maybe we should get an alarm system."
Prue and Andy walk in.
"Hey, Pheebs, did you borrow Grams' necklace again?" Prue asks
"No." Was Phoebe's reply.
"Are you sure?" Prue asks.
"Yeah, I'm positive. Why?" Phoebe asks.
"She cant find it." Andy says pointing towards Prue.
Prue then says "What about my good luck blouse? Have you guys seen it?"
"The fuchsia paisley one?" Phoebe asks and Prue nods Phoebe shakes her head.
"Is anything else missing?" Piper asks.
Prue says "Not that I know of."
"Prue, this is important. Maybe the guy that broke into the house took them." Phoebe says
Prue then says "Yeah, or maybe it was a demon who took them for some weird ritualistic ceremony?"
Phoebe says "Now would that be the, um, pillow-smothering or the lock-picking demon?"
"Where's Mike at?" Andy says looking around "I need to talk to him."
Phoebe has an obvious look and says "At school. Where else would he be?"
Leo orbs in "They called me away on something else, Piper. I swear, it was a total coincidence." He assures her.
Piper looks at him and says "Mmm hmm."
"As far as the triad's concerned, they don't know much, they don't even know what it really is." Leo says
Prue says "Wow, six thousand years of conflict and that's it? These guys are serious underachievers."
"What they do know through, is that the triad is at the highest level of the other side aside from Michael of course." Leo says.
Phoebe says "Okay, that's a biggie."
"Yeah, well, that's why we need to get to them before they get to us." Prue says handing Piper and Phoebe a bag.
"What is this?" Piper asks.
Prue says "A way to always be prepared."
"These are very big contraceptives, Prue." Phoebe says.
Prue says "They are sneakers, alright. You know, we're always wearing inappropriate footwear when demons attack. Now we will be prepared. Keep them with you at all times."
Phoebe says "I am gonna be so fast in these." The doorbell rings.
Foyer
Everyone walks in and Piper opens the door "Hi." Darryl says walking into the house
Piper says "Hi."
Darryl says "We're making progress. The same set of fingerprints were found on all the broken mirrors."
"Whose are they?" Leo asks him.
Darryl says "Unfortunately FBI computer came up with a blank. Which just means the perp had no criminal record."
"So what does that mean? That it's some weird crazy person?" Piper asks.
Darryl says "I can't say, I don't have enough to go on. I mean, we've got broken mirrors and nothing's missing."
"We checked again there is stuff missing." Andy says to his partner.
Phoebe nods and says "Our grandmother's necklace and Prue's favorite shirt are missing."
Darryl says "It's funny that's the only thing he took. You know, there is another possibility. Could be a stalker."
Leo says "A stalker?"
"Yeah." Andy says to Leo's question
Piper says "Who would want to stalk us?"
Darryl says "Could be anybody. I need you to get a human grudge list together. Old or current classmates, people you work with or for, old boyfriends..." He looks around "Where's Michael?"
"At school." Andy says "I will go give him the news." He points to Prue and says "You be careful. Bye love you." He walks out of the manor.
Phoebe goes back to the subject and says "Hey, what about Sean?"
Prue in disbelief says "A guy I stood up for a photo shoot once? I don't think so."
"The smallest things can set these guys off." Darryl assures them.
Prue says "Alright, well, if it's a stalker, it's a demonic stalker."
Darryl says "In any case, I'm gonna check out this Sean guy. I need that grudge list ASAP. Stalkers will do anything to obtain the object of their desire. You could be in real danger."
Prue says "Thanks."
Darryl says "Bye." He leaves.
Phoebe says "You need to listen to him, Prue."
Prue says "Why? No one listens to me. Here." She hands Piper her shoes. "I gotta go. If the demon doesn't kill me, my editor will."
Outside Cole's office
An invisible Troxa walks out of the elevator and down the hall. He walks into Cole's office. Cole is there standing by the window. Troxa walks over and picks up a letter opener. Cole turns around holding a fire extinguisher and sprays Troxa and he turns visible
"I did some research, Troxa." Cole assures him. He hits Troxa over the head with the fire extinguisher and he falls over Cole's desk. "I found your Achilles heal. Cold is very revealing for you. Although, worse because since you can't feel, you don't even know when it's cold."
Troxa says to him "First them, then you." Troxa leaves.
Studio
Prue is there with a snake hunter. She is going to take photos of him
Prue says "Just do what you normally do on your TV show. Okay, just pretend that I'm the audience."
Snake Hunter says in an Australian accent "Okay, right, jillaroo. Now, the Australian Black Snake won't just run out of the bush and strike at ya for no good reason. They strike as a defense mechanism. That's the only way they can protect themselves. Now, you may wonder how we enticed this little beaut out of the wild to join us today. Over here, the only humane way to capture a snake," He walks over to a cage. Someone is standing behind the bushes taking photos of Prue. "Is to use a snake trap. You lure them in with a ripping snake snack. Like a tiny Mickey mouse or a froggie."
Prue asks "Uh, what did you say the cage was used for again?"
Snake hunter says "Trapping snakes. Or any other varmints you might want to get rid of."
"Really?" Prue asks with a smile
Snake Hunter says "Yeah. Go on, beaut." He puts the snake back in the cage. "There you go."
Michael's school
Michael and Zeke are in PE doing dodge ball. The game has just started and balls are thrown everywhere but the kids doge them. Michael looks at the kid across from him and the kid throws the ball Michael dodges it.
Michael picks up a ball and holds it in his hand as if it were an energy ball and aims it he throws it and it hits someone getting them out.
Andy and walks into the gym by the teacher and they say a few things and Andy walks up to behind Michael and grabbing his arm. Andy knowing what Michael is about to do starts to say "No, Mike wait…" As Michael grabs Andy's arm and flips him to the ground.
"Oh, I am so sorry Andy. Please don't arrest me." Michael says in a jokingly tone but is serious.
Andy gets up and says "Its ok I'm all right but you're coming with me we need to talk." He walks Michael out of the school.
P3
Phoebe walks up to the bar "Abby, Abby, hi."
Abby says "Hi."
"Have you seen Cole?" Phoebe asks.
"Who?" Abby asks confused.
Phoebe begins to describe him "Tall, dark, good looking, district attorney?" Abby shakes her head. "Okay, no good. How about an easy one - where's Piper?"
Abby says "Oh, she's in the back, in the office."
Phoebe says "Okay, thanks."
Office
Piper and Leo are there making out. Leo has his shirt off. Phoebe walks in "Whoaaaaa! I should've knocked, I'm sorry." Phoebe walks back out and closes the door.
Piper says "It's okay." Phoebe pokes her head back in the room. "I can't do it anyway."
Phoebe puts her head in the door and says "I am so sorry to hear that."
Leo says "I guess I better go."
Piper says "Yeah." Leo orbs out. "I'm so tired of living under this scrutiny."
Piper walks out of the room and she and Phoebe head towards the bar. "Well, I told you I didn't see anything." Phoebe says.
"Not you, them. I thought doing it somewhere else might take the pressure off." Piper explains
Phoebe says "Mmm, I'm bummed for you, Piper, I really am. But I gotta tell you, Leo is looking fine."
Piper says "I thought you said you didn't see anything."
Phoebe tells her "Well, nothing good." Phoebe takes some pieces of paper out of her purse. "Okay, here is my stalker list. It's mostly guys that I knew when I was in New York."
Piper looks at the list and says "Wow, you were busy in New York."
Phoebe says "Yeah, um, so now that we have mine and yours, all we need is..." Prue walks up to them. She is all dressed up. "Wow, you look different."
"Relaxed." Piper says adding to her sentence.
"What happened?" Phoebe asks.
Prue says "I'm just not as worried about demons as much anymore." She looks around and asks "Have you guys seen Sean around? I need to photograph him."
"No, I haven't, but how do you know he's not your stalker?" Piper asks.
Prue says "Oh, don't be ridiculous."
Phoebe asks her "What happened to 'there's a demon on my ass' Prue?"
"Well, um, I set a trap." Prue explains.
"A trap?" Piper repeats.
Prue says "Mmm hmm. We are going to catch this demon and instead of vanquishing him like we normally do, we're gonna make him talk about the triad."
"So is this like a bear trap with big claws?" Phoebe asks
Prue says "Michael and I cast a spell over a series of siderite crystals," she holds up a crystal "sort of creating a power grid with the Book of Shadows as the bait."
"And how does that work?" Piper asks.
Prue says "Well, the minute the demon steps into the grid, this glows and he's zapped."
"So whatever it is, is electrocuted." Piper guesses
Prue says "Yeah, well, whatever demon."
Phoebe wanders aloud "Mmm hmm, and what about human? Or feline? You're gonna fry Kit."
Prue says "Well, Kit can't get in 'cause I locked the attic door."
Piper says "So, Prue, you've booby trapped our house."
"Mmm hmm." Was her reply.
Phoebe says "And again, what if it's human?"
Prue says "It's not." She sees Sean. "Oh, alright, if you guys will excuse me, I have a life to try and go give." She walks away.
Piper says "This is not good."
Phoebe says "No, if she keeps this up we're gonna have to do a demon intervention."
Prue walks up to Sean "Hey." She says as she approaches him.
Sean says "Hey."
Prue says to him "Thanks for coming." Abby walks past and Prue sees her "Um, oh, Abby, whatever Sean wants to drink, can you just..."
Sean interrupts and says "No thanks. I've had more then my share of free drinks."
Prue says "Alright, well, I guess I deserve that. Um, look, Sean, there is so much going on in my life that I can't really explain but if you're interested I'd like to make it up to you."
Sean says "Hey, whenever you get around to doing the shoot is fine with me. This place has more than enough entertainment to keep me from going crazy waiting."
Prue says "Psycho, freaky crazy?"
Sean says "What?"
Prue says "Never mind."
Manor
Cole opens the front door "Phoebe? Anybody home?"
He walks in and closes the door he looks at the thermostat and He turns up the air conditioning. He walks into the living room, picks up a lamp and drops it on the floor. He opens all the windows and then shimmers out.
Attic
Cole shimmers in and opens the attic door he walks by a crystal and it glows he walks to the windows and opens them. He picks up Prue's notepad and looks at it a while.
Downstairs
Michael flames in with Zeke and Max also flames in "Oh great." Michael says.
Max forms an energy ball "If I can't have you then I will kill you." He threatens
Michael looks around and sees the glass on the floor and whispers to Zeke "When I say so run." Zeke nods in agreement.
"Any last words." Max says aiming the energy ball.
"Just one." Michael says "Glass!" He yells waving his hand making all the broken glass that was in a bowl Max's way. He turns to run up the stairs "Well, run." He says to Zeke.
Max throws the energy ball and it hits the window by the kitchen and makes a loud crash.
Michael and Zeke run into the attic and see Cole looking at Prue's notepad. "Cole." Michael says running over to him.
"My liege, what is it? What's going on?" Cole asks upon seeing Max flame in up stairs.
"Well, well, well, if it isn't the Mighty Balthazar." Max says
"The book." Michael says to himself quietly. Cole walks over to the book "No…No Cole wait." Michael says running behind Cole as Max follows Michael. The two demons and Michael step into the trap and get zapped. Cole turns into Balthazar and Max disappears in a burst of flames. Michael and Cole fall unconsciously to the ground.
"Oh my gosh." Zeke says trying to wake Michael up. "Mikey! Mikey wake up." He says.
P3
The crystal beside Prue begins to glow "What the hell is that?" Sean asks.
Prue looks at the crystal shocked "Oh, oh, it worked."
Sean looks confused "What worked?" he asks.
Prue runs over to Piper and Phoebe "Alright, it worked, it worked, we caught our demon, so let's go."
Commercial Break
Manor
Prue, Piper and Phoebe walk in and Prue says "Alright, we don't really know what kind of demon this is, so we have to go in attacking. Piper, you freeze him and I will tie him up."
Piper says "Speaking of freezing... it's freezing in here."
Phoebe looks around and sees the windows open "That's because every window in the house is open. What kind of demon would do that?"
Prue says "Oh, who cares. Has everybody got their sneakers on?"
They begin to run upstairs "Yeah, yeah." Piper says.
Prue says "Alright."
Attic
Prue, Piper and Phoebe run in and Prue turns on the light. They see Cole and Michael lying there and Zeke is trying to wake Michael up.
"Cole? Mikey?" Piper wonders aloud.
Phoebe steps up and says "What?"
Prue stops her "Wait, it could be dangerous."
Phoebe says in a tone of frustration "For god sakes, Prue, they look really hurt."
Prue says "Phoebe, it's a trap for demons. You do the math." Phoebe kneels down beside Cole and rests his head on her knees. "What are you doing here?" as it is obvious Cole is awake now.
Piper kneels beside Michael "Mikey." She pats him "Mikey, honey, its all right wake up." Piper says.
"Piper?" Michael wonders opening his eyes and sees her.
Cole answers Prue's question by saying "I came by to see how you're doing."
Phoebe looks between Cole and Michael and asks Cole "Are you guys okay?"
"So how did you get in and what are you doing up here?" Prue asks Cole.
Cole explains to them "Front door was unlocked and when I saw the windows were open..."
"You thought that someone broke into the house again." She finishes his sentence Cole stands up. And he helps Michael up "Third degree over now?" she asks.
"What happened? What's that?" Cole asks Prue pointing to the trap
Piper says "Uh... it's a project for…"
Prue cuts her from the sentence and says to Cole "It's a trap."
"A what?" Cole asks.
Everyone is coming down the stairs and Phoebe is the first to speak "Cole, I am so sorry. Please forgive us."
Cole says to her "I'll take that under advisement."
Phoebe says to Cole as they hit the bottom step "Prue just panicked, she wasn't thinking straight."
"The hell I wasn't." Prue snapped back to her younger sister.
Cole looks at Prue and says "Do you know that your trap is the equivalent of having a loaded shot gun with a trip wire behind your front door? That's illegal. I'm an ADA, an officer of the court. I could have you arrested."
Piper looks at Michael and says "Somebody turned on the air conditioning. Why would they do that?"
"Don't look at me ok it was on when I got home." Michael says leaning on Zeke for a little balance.
Cole says "I'm outta here."
He walks outside and Phoebe follows him "Cole, Cole. I am so sorry. It's just we've all been under so much pressure lately."
Cole looks at her and says "I'm just glad it wasn't you who did this to me."
He leaves and Phoebe picks up a parcel that is sitting on the porch with a card that says To Prue from Sean and she takes it inside.
Phoebe walks in the house and says to Prue "How could you? How far are you gonna let this obsession go, Prue?"
Prue starts to explain "Phoebe, listen..."
"No, I'm not gonna listen, Prue." Phoebe yells throwing her hands out "You didn't nearly catch a demon, you nearly killed our Cousin and a district attorney. My district attorney."
Prue says "How do you know we didn't catch a demon? I understand the trap zapping Michael but not Cole but I mean, think about it, Phoebe. He is always around when something is going on. I mean, look at tonight."
Phoebe looks at her in disbelief and says "You're right, he's a plant. Trying to get close to me so he can kill us. Now is everyone a demon, Prue? You are crazy right now."
Piper looks at the card on the flowers and says "Prue? You have a lovely package from Sean. It looks like flowers. Pretty nice for a guy you've blown off a photo shoot twice."
Prue opens the package and the flowers are covered in worms. "Oh!" Prue says looking at the flowers.
"Gross." Michael and Zeke say together as they see the flowers.
Piper says "Oh, that's disgusting. Look out, look out." Piper takes the flowers outside
Phoebe says "There's your demon, Prue. I'm going to call Andy and Morris." She leaves.
Prue says to whoever is listening but mostly to Piper "Piper, that doesn't really make any sense. I mean, I can not believe I hurt that guy that badly."
Piper says to her "Darryl said it only takes a small thing to set them off. Maybe Phoebe's right, maybe you're just not seeing the reality."
Prue says "Piper, my instincts are almost always right, I have to trust them."
"You have to trust them. And I'm not saying that you shouldn't but, Prue, there are other evils in the world and some of them are even human." Piper says to her and she leaves.
"Mikey I didn't mean…" Prue says to him and then asks "Are you all right?"
"Yeah. Yeah I'm fine." Michael says walking up the stairs.
Outside
Cole's sitting there leaning against his car and Troxa walks up to him. "I warned you, Belthazor."
Cole holds his hand up and says "Hold it, Troxa. Cool your jets. I came to apologize."
"Apologize? For what?" Troxa asks waiting for an answer.
Cole says "Pissing you off for one thing. I don't wanna be always looking over my shoulder waiting for you to strike for the rest of eternity. You want the Charmed Ones, they're all yours."
Troxa says to him "I don't trust you."
Cole says "Fine, don't. Just don't blame your failure on me to the triad." Troxa starts to walk off and turns invisible. "Oh, by the way, the key to getting them is in the Book of Shadows. It's up in the attic." He then says to himself "I just hope Michael will know what to do."
Manor
Phoebe and Piper are in the living room. Phoebe slams shut a window.
Piper says to her "Be careful."
Phoebe says to her "Oh, you know what? I don't care, I'm just so mad at Prue. I mean, it's one thing to be obsessed, you know," she slams another window shut "but it's another thing to hurt innocent people."
"Okay, but she is trying to look out for us, but there is a triad demon on the loose." Piper explains putting a hand in front of Phoebe to stop her from walking on.
Phoebe says to her calmly "I understand that, Piper, but it is not Cole and Mikey."
Leo orbs in holding a large Hershey's Kiss "Oh, honey, that's sweet but not tonight. We all have headaches." Piper says to him.
Leo says "Okay."
Phoebe gets an idea and says "But feel free to help us close some windows."
Foyer
Invisible Troxa opens the door and walks up the stairs.
Attic
Prue, Michael and Zeke are there closing the windows. Troxa walks in. Prue steps on some glass and asks "What happened?" and Michael shrugs
Zeke sees the reflection in the mirror and says "What the hell is that?" Prue then looks at the mirror and sees Troxa's reflection. She pulls Zeke behind her and throws her arm out in front of her using her power and he flies into the wall. He turns fully visible and pounces on Prue. The trap is heard in her mind and she pushes him into the trap and he gets zapped.
Downstairs Piper, Phoebe and Leo see the lights go out and hear yelling and they run upstairs.
Prue pulls one of the crystals out of the grid and stops zapping him. "I want you to tell me everything that you know about the triad. Who they are, what their plans are. Answer me."
Piper, Phoebe and Leo walk in.
Troxa says to her "You'll get nothing from me, witch." She puts the crystal back in the grid and zaps him. She pulls it away. "I am Troxa. I'm not the only agent the triad has sent after you. There is another. His name is Belthazor."
Michael pretends to not know who that is.
Troxa is engulfed in flames and he disappears in a hole in the floor.
"Alright, what the hell happened?" Prue asks.
"The triad." Leo assumes
"Wait, so they know where we live now?" Phoebe asks.
Piper says "No, they know where he is, or was. All that matters is he's gone."
Phoebe says to Prue "You were right, Prue. I owe you a big apology."
"I'm sorry I doubted you but I was worried..." Piper starts
Prue says "It's alright. Let's just, uh, let's look him up."
They go over to the Book of Shadows and flip through the pages
Piper reads the page on Troxa "'Troxa, an invisible demon. His weakness is that his ectoplasmic biochemistry is sensitive to cold, may become partially visible'."
"Wait a second, so if someone hadn't turned on the a/c, opened up all the windows and made it freezing in here, I never would've seen him." Prue wonders aloud then looks at Leo "Leo?"
Leo says "I don't know anything about it at all."
"Does that mean we have another guardian angel?" Phoebe asks.
Leo says to them "Well, I hope so. From what I've heard about Balthazar, we're gonna need all the help we can get."
"Why?" Michael asks.
"What do you mean?" Piper asks
Leo says "Well, he's infamous. He's a demonic soldier of fortune. He's one of the most evil vile creatures there is."
They flip the pages and find the page on Balthazar. Phoebe is the first to say something "Wait, that's the demon we saw try to take the Book of Shadows a couple of weeks ago."
"And the demon who brought me back when I was kidnapped that day with cupid." Michael says
Piper says "So Troxa's right. There's somebody else out there to get us."
Prue says "Well, at least now we know who he is."
Piper says "But we're safe for now. So I'm gonna take this rare opportunity to get a good night's sleep."
Leo says "I'll go see what I can find out about Belthazor." Piper walks over to him. "Enjoy your candy." He says to her
Piper says "Thank you."
They kiss "Sure." Leo says as she leaves the room and he orbs out.
Phoebe looks at Prue and Michael and Zeke and says "Are you gonna be able to get some rest now?"
Prue says "No, I am way too wired and also my photo assignment is due tomorrow and Andy is doing an all nighter at the station."
Phoebe picks up Prue's notebook and sees Cole's name written on it. "Cole?"
Prue says "Right, uh, well, I had to fill in something."
Phoebe says "Do you think maybe tomorrow you could call Cole and apologize to him?"
Prue says "Yeah."
Prue is in the basement developing her photos. The photos turn out to be pictures of herself. Somebody appears behind her and pushes her head in the photo water.
Commercial Break
Manor: Kitchen
Piper and Phoebe are sitting there Piper gets up to grab a cup. "I've gotta meet Marvelous 3 this afternoon, so I need to get some stuff ready. Can I drop you off?" Piper asks Phoebe only for there to be no answer "Hello? Anybody home?"
Phoebe says to Piper "Uh, yeah, I-I was just thinking there are still so many loose ends. I mean, the broken mirrors, the a/c, the open windows, the dead flowers, the stuff that's missing."
"Are you obsessing now? It's over, we were wrong." Piper says to her.
Phoebe says "I know, but those aren't demonic things, they're things that a stalker might do. Like what Morris said."
Piper says "Well, you told Andy about Sean, he'll figure it out."
Phoebe says "Yeah, Sean. Um, where's our copy of the grudge list that we made for Morris?"
"I left it at the club." Piper says then turns to Phoebe and asks "Why?"
Phoebe says "I just wanna look it over again."
Piper says "Okay, well, let's go. Are Prue and Michael still sleeping?"
Phoebe says "Well Prue's bed is made and her car is not here. And Andy dropped Michael off at Zeke's house."
Piper says "Well, maybe Prue took her pictures to 415."
Phoebe says "It's really early. I mean, is 415 even open yet? I'm gonna call her." Phoebe dials Prue's number.
Basement
Prue is tied up in a chair. Abby is there. Prue's phone rings and Abby answers it pretending to be Prue "Hello?"
Phoebe says "It's me, I'm just checking in. Where are you?"
Abby says "I'm in my car."
The phone starts breaking up
Phoebe says "Hello? Prue, I can barely hear you."
Abby says "Yeah, I'm fine, I'll see you later, honey, bye." She hangs up.
Kitchen
Phoebe says "She sounds fine."
Piper says "Okay."
Phoebe says "Okay, let's go."
Basement
The phone rings again and Abby answers it "Hello?"
Andy on the other line does not recognize the voice "Prue?"
"Yeah it's me, uh…" She looks at the name in the phone "Andy."
Andy realizes something is up "I just wanted to call and let you know I will be home early today." He says
"Ok see you in a few then." She says dying to get off the phone
Andy now realizes its not her and says "Prue where's Mike at?"
"At school, isn't he?" Abby asks confused and the other line hangs up.
Police station
Andy hangs the phone up and dials a number on his cell and holds it to his ear "Come on. Come on." He says.
"Hello?" A voice on the other end says
"Is Michael Gonzalez there?" Andy asks
"Yeah." The voice says and Michael's voice takes over "Hello."
"Mike I need you to get home fast. Prue could be in trouble." Andy says hanging up the phone and running out.
Manor: Basement
Abby hears the sisters leave "Bye bye. It's just you and me now, Prue. Your sisters are gone."
Prue's eyes are red and her vision is blurred "What do you want?" Prue asks.
Abby takes off her shirt "Oh, Prue, isn't it obvious what I want, huh?" She puts on one of Prue's shirt. "I wanna be you. What, no witty come back? No confident 'I'm the queen of the world' retort?"
Prue hears the voice and says "Abby?"
Abby says "No, you're wrong, Abby's gone forever. She's a loser and you're a winner. And now I'm gonna be a winner too. As soon as I take care of you." She puts on a black wig. "Did you like the dead roses I sent you? Huh? Do you even know I was the one who broke into your house. I have to be you. Oh, I love wearing your clothes, your things. Makes me wanna be you even more. Beautiful, successful, loved by men."
"I have just as much trouble with men as anyone." Prue admits
Abby says "What, you mean Sean or the cop? Oh, please. They're not good enough for us. Uh-uh, no, no, I can do better." She picks up a gun. "Without you around. Now I just have one last question. Last night when I was here," Prue unties her hands with her power by moving her fingers "when I was running away from you, how the hell did you throw me through that door, huh?"
"Like this." Prue asks squinting her eyes and using a large amount of force in her power to send Abby flying into a high shelf
She frees her hands and uses her power again and pushes furniture on top of Abby. Prue stumbles up the stairs.
Upstairs
Prue hides in the closet and closes her eyes. She didn't know why but she was able to sense Michael flaming in upstairs. "Oh thank god." She whispers to herself as she knew that everything would be all right now because a martial arts family member is there and she knew he had a plan.
P3
The phone is ringing. Phoebe and Piper run in Piper answers the phone "P3."
Darryl on the other line says "Piper, hey, hey, where's Prue? Trudeau and I can't reach her anywhere. At the manor, on her cell."
Piper says to Darryl "That's weird, we just talked to her on her cell. Why? What's going on?"
Darryl says "I've got a match off those finger prints I got at your house."
"Sean?" Piper asks him.
Darryl says "No, no, no, no, not Sean. Abby, your bartender. The one off of your list."
Piper suddenly sounds surprised "What? Abby? Why would Abby wanna hurt Prue?"
Phoebe now looks surprised and says "Abby's hurt Prue?"
Piper says to Darryl "Hold on." Putting the phone down.
Phoebe and Piper go into the locker room and opens Abby's locker. Piper pulls out some photos and a book
Phoebe looks at the top shelf and says "Okay, and that's the kind of perfume Prue wears and the cosmetics that she uses."
Piper flips through the photos. They are all pictures of Prue. Piper reads from the notebook "'October 27th, 8:01. Prue leaves the house, gets into car. I love the way she walks so confident and controlled'."
Phoebe also reads a quote in the notebook "'Enters dry cleaners, smiling, the sun catches her hair. So beautiful'."
Piper looks through the stuff "Pages and pictures..."
Phoebe touches a photo and has a premonition
Premonition
Prue and Michael are standing in the kitchen and Abbey walks in and shoots Prue
End of Premonition
"What?" Piper asks as Phoebe sees the vision
Phoebe says "Abby, killing Prue at the manor."
Manor
Prue is hiding in a closet Michael walks down the stairs and looks around. Prue can only see the outline of Michael's clothes Mikey hide. Its Abby. Prue's thoughts flowed through his mind as Abby walks in the dining room holding her gun. "What?" Michael says out loud and sees her and hides behind a wall. She walks into the foyer and near the closet Prue is hiding in. "Oh god." Michael says to himself and Prue astral projects behind Abby.
Astral Prue appears beside Michael and behind Abby and says "Hey, over here." Abby screams and shoots five times at astral Prue. Astral Prue disappears and reappears somewhere else. "Hey, freak, I'm over here now." Abby shoots at astral Prue another four times.
"Gun." Michael whispers and nothing happens "Gun." He tries again. Prue astral projects back into her body. Prue runs out of the closet and tackles Abby. Prue tries to escape but Abby pushes her against a wall. Prue hits her and pushes her on the floor.
Prue finds her way to Michael and he leads her to the kitchen and Abby follows.
Abby runs in and Andy is already in the kitchen and Michael says to her "Just great, you know I'd hate to have to hit a woman who comes after my family."
Abby knocks him to the ground and Andy pulls out his gun "I, on the other hand, won't hesitate shooting one who tries to kill my wife."
She points her gun at Prue and Michael and shoots. Suddenly, the bullet freezes in mid-air. Phoebe and Piper walk in and Piper grabs the bullet out of the air.
"Okay, we're here." Phoebe says
Piper says "Everything's gonna be okay. Everything's gonna be great as soon as I fire her."
Prue waves her arm and Abby flies into a cupboard everything unfreezes
Phoebe says to Prue "Nice. Feel better now?"
Prue says "Yeah, I'm getting there."
Piper says "Alright, shake it off."
Andy walks Abby out of the house and into the police car out front.
P3
Marvelous 3 are performing on stage. Prue and Phoebe are at the bar. The new bartender serves them a drink.
Prue says "Thanks. Um, Rachel. Can I ask you a question?"
Rachel says "Yeah."
Prue says "Are you happy?"
Rachel says "Extremely."
Prue asks "Boyfriend? Any career goals?"
Rachel holds her hand out and says "Engaged. I'm only doing this until I get my masters in education. I'm gonna be a teacher."
Prue says "Oh, that's just so excellent." Prue gives her a tip. "Thank you."
Rachel says "Thanks." And walks away
Prue says to Phoebe "You know, you can never be too careful with demons or mortals."
Phoebe says "So rumor has it Andy has convinced Leo to install an alarm system in the house."
Prue says "Yeah, I know, and we're gonna have to lock the doors and do all that responsible stuff women should do in the big city."
Phoebe says "I agree. And we're gonna have to watch out for Belthazor."
Prue says "Yes, I agree." Prue sees Cole walk down the stairs. "But first I think you should watch out for him."
Phoebe turns around and sees Cole "You don't like him, do you?"
"No, I don't..." Prue starts to admit but then changes the answer a little "really know him. Do you?"
Phoebe says "No, um, not as well as I'd like to. Actually, you know, I think I'm gonna go see what I can do about that."
Prue says "Be careful." Phoebe walks over to Cole. Prue sees Sean across the room and goes over to him. "Hey."
Sean smiles and says "How about I suggest a time and maybe you'll be able to make it?"
Prue says "It's worth a shot."
Phoebe talks to Cole and says "So, still friends?"
Cole says "I hope we're more than that."
Phoebe says "Do you? Prove it."
Cole pulls her closer and they kiss
Manor: Piper's room
A hot and sweaty Piper and Leo are laying in bed.
Leo says "Wow. You are amazing when you concentrate."
Piper says "And stop worrying about them?" Piper looks up. "I hope you enjoyed the show." They giggle and cuddle up to each other.
Prue's room
Later that night Prue and Andy are lying on the bed talking "I wonder what it would be like having a kid." Andy says.
"Well, sometimes I think about the same thing and then I decide on whether or not bringing a child into a world with so much violence and demons." Prue says.
"We can take care of that." Andy says getting closer to Prue "Want to try it." Andy asks and Prue smiles and the lights go out.
Michael's room
Michael is asleep tossing and turning on his bed. It appears he is having a bad dream.
In the dream
Michael is standing in the attic and Max appears "Hello again Michael."
"You, I thought you got vanquished." Michael says
"I did, I'm only in your mind." Max says. "See we both posses a power that works with the mind." He explains.
"Go away." Michael says "Leave me alone."
Max looks at him and says "I will be back in my own mind soon and when I am I will teach you and your friends a little lesson, I am going to kill them just so you can watch them die and then I will kill you. I want you dead."
End of dream
Michael jerks himself up and breathes heavily and is sweating and Phoebe is in the doorway of his room "Where am I" Michael asks.
"Mikey, are you all right?" Phoebe asks.
"No, He's going to kill me." Michael says
"Who sweetie?" Phoebe asks sitting down and wiping some tears and sweat off of his face "Who is going to kill you?"
"I don't know." Michael says still breathing heavily "A demon or-or something I don't know."
"Shh. Shh. It's ok, Honey." Phoebe says hugging him "I won't let any demon of any kind kill you." Phoebe assures him "They will have to get through us first."
