(Scene: The Manor. Porter storms in, slams the door, and throws his backpack on the floor. Leo calls in from another room.)
Leo: Hello? Piper?
Porter: No. It's Porter. (Leo walks into the foyer.)
Leo: Porter? What are you doing here? It's only 11.
Porter: Yeah, I know.
Leo: Did you get sent home sick?
Porter: No.
Leo: Then why are you here so early?
Porter: Let's just say, school ends early if you know the right way to pick a lock.
Leo: You're skipping school? (Porter walks into the living room. Leo follows him.)
Porter: Where are Piper and Paige?
Leo: Out looking for the Anima demon king. You know if Piper finds out you are skipping school she's gonna…
Porter: Piper this, Piper that…you know, Piper isn't all "bad A" like you think. As a matter of fact, give me two boobs and two ovaries and I could be a much better annoying old hag than that whore I regret to call a sister.
Leo: Porter! You watch your tongue.
Porter: Who says things like that? Oh yeah, I forgot. I'm talking to a useless ghost of dead man's corpse. You know what, Leo? (Porter blow over his hand. Leo is flash frozen in orbs of ice. Porter punches the ice statue of Leo and it collapses into a pile bloody ice cubes.) That's much better. (Porter jumps over the couch, sits down, and puts his feet on the table.)
(Cut to Piper and Paige in a forest.)
Piper: Remind me why are here again?
Paige: We scryed for any sign of Anima control using the Anima blood and it lead us to this park.
Piper: Yeah, well, I don't see any evil dogs attacking little old ladies. (A piercing scream. Paige looks at Piper, sassily.)
Paige: Don't speak too soon. (A woman is being chased by a bear walking on its hind legs.) Piper, freeze it. (Piper freezes the bear.)
Piper: Okay, now where is this Anima demon? (A couple of pigeons fly at Paige and Piper. They duck and avoid them. The Anima demon shimmers in. The bear unfreezes and goes towards Paige and Piper. Piper blows up the Anima demon.) Was that the king? That better have been the king. (The bear jumps at Paige and Piper again. They orb out.)
(Cut to the Manor living room. Porter is still sitting on the couch watching the TV. Paige and Piper orb in behind him on the pile of Leo.)
Paige: I'm guessing it wasn't.
Piper: Porter? What the hell are you doing here?
Porter: Not learning.
Piper: What's that supposed to mean? Shouldn't you be in school?
Porter: Should be, would be, but I left.
Paige: Okay, you are going back this instant.
Porter: Make me.
Paige: Okay. (Paige raises her hand.) Porter! School! (Porter orbs out.)
Piper: Where's Leo?
Paige: I don't know.
Piper: Ugh. (Piper walks off and Paige follows her. Their feet crunch over the ice blocks. They go into the conservatory.) Leo? Leo? Oh! Oh! Ow! (Piper clutches her stomach.)
Paige: You okay?
Piper: I don't… Ow!
Paige: Do you want me to orb you to the doctor's office or something?
Piper: No…Ow. Yes, yes!
(Cut to a restaurant. Couples fill the room, cuddling and kissing. Phoebe and Jason walk in.)
Phoebe: Okay, what are we doing here?
Jason: Phoebe, this shouldn't take very long. But then again, you're pretty stubborn, so maybe it will.
Phoebe: Oh, wait a minute, I am stubborn? I am stubborn? Then what are you?
Jason: Stubborn, and a control freak. And pretty arrogant sometimes.
Phoebe: You really know how to take the fun out of a fight now, don't you? (Jason and Phoebe smile at each other.)
Jason: Phoebe, you make me sound like I'm the bad guy. After all, I am the one who wants to expand your column.
Phoebe: Right. What kind of ideas do you have?
Jason: I was thinking that we could branch the Ask Phoebe column into three parts. One part where you give advice, another part where we could have former askers share their success stories, and another where you take your advice on the road.
Phoebe: You know Jason. Something tells me you didn't ask me to come here purely intent on furthering my career.
Jason: Hm…Smart, beautiful, and very instinctive.
(Cut to a doctor's office. Piper is lying down on a table. The doctor is touching her side. Paige is sitting in a chair looking at a magazine.)
Doctor: Now tell me, Ms. Halliwell, what's wrong?
Piper: I'm not too sure. I keep having theses sharp pains in the side of my stomach.
Doctor: How long have you had stomach problems?
Piper: Not that long. I mean I have had major cravings.
Paige: And strange ones. Two weeks ago, she was eating bologna and chocolate sauce.
Doctor: Ms. Halliwell, I think we are going to have to take an ultrasound of your stomach.
Piper: Well, whatever it takes to get rid of this pain. Ow! There it is again.
Doctor: I'll right back with the ultrasound machine. (The doctor leaves.)
Paige: A sonogram? That doesn't concern you?
Piper: Why would it concern me?
Paige: Don't you think that if they are giving you an ultrasound that perhaps you may be pregnant or something?
Piper: Please, Paige. I'm not pregnant. (The doctor enters with a tall machine.)
Doctor: Alright Ms. Halliwell, I need you to lift up your shirt. (He rubs a small microphone shaped wand on Piper's stomach.) Well, Ms. Halliwell, it looks like you are perfectly healthy. You and the baby are perfectly fine.
Piper: Oh that's great. I don't know what I would do if the baby was…Baby? What baby?
Doctor: The one that I would guess you've been carrying for about two to three months now.
Piper: I'm pregnant? (Paige nods yes.) I'm going to be a mommy? (Paige nods yes.)
Paige: If it's what you wanted, then congratulations.
Piper: Wait until Leo hears about this.
(Time lapse. Late at night. Porter is in his bed. He sits up and his shadow appears on the wall. The moonlight shines into the warm and suddenly Porter's shadow morphs into a tall shadow with long hair and pointy ears. The shadow suddenly disappears in a blur.)
