[ "A nurse is found dead in her house by her friend, who's also a nurse. The victim died in her spacious bathroom, posed with her head facing the door. Grissom is left unnerved because the victim bears a resemblance to his fellow CSI, Sara Sidle. According to the friend, she was to have dinner with her new boyfriend, Dr. Michael Clark, who works at the same hospital. Processing the crime scene reveals very little evidence because the killer has thoroughly cleaned the place and used bleached to denature any DNA. Dr. Clark, initially a prime suspect, is later found, albeit in pieces, in garbage bins behind the house. The precision of various cuts suggests that the medical personnel is the killer. Meanwhile, this case prompts Grissom to contemplate his workaholic life and whether it is worth the life he may be missing out on." ]

[ "A teenage boy, Marlon, is being prosecuted for a murder of Stacey, one of his female classmates. During his trial, his 12-year-old sister Hannah takes the stand, and admits that she herself murdered Stacey. The CSI team is now faced with a strange dilemma - two confessions for the one murder. As Hannah is a genius, in high school already, some CSI members suspect that she could not have physically committed the murder. Finally the brother is found to be not guilty by the jury. Later, Hannah reveals to Sara that it was Marlon all along." ]

[ "The Cadillac of an infamous 1970's mob boss, Mickey Dunn, is found in a lake after he disappeared years ago. Shortly afterwards, a string of murders occur in which the killers almost eagerly leave evidence of their appearance for witnesses and the CSIs. Furthermore, an old picture of the victims standing next to Dunn outside the Desert Inn casino is planted on their bodies. The team must then find out what the connection is between the murders, Dunn and a missing policeman. Roger Daltrey of The Who guest stars as Mickey Dunn." ]

[ "Three murders occur during an annual bull-riding rodeo in Las Vegas. The first victim is a bull rider who is discovered after hours in an empty bull ring. The second is a hit-and-run victim who is linked to the dead bull rider. Later, a third victim, a local pimp, is gunned down in a saloon's restroom. The investigation reveals the crimes may be connected to an illegal bull-breeding ring." ]

You wanna see me suffer.", "Andy: I wanna solve these murders. Someone's after witches.", "Darryl: Women.", "Andy: That woman up there, I bet she was killed with an athame.", "Darryl: Wrong. Double edged steel knife.", "Andy: Right. That's an athame. It's a ceremonial tool. Witch's use them to direct energy.", "Darryl: That woman didn't direct jack. She was stabbed. Plain and simple.", "Andy: Was she found in an altar?", "Darryl: Yes.", "Andy: Were there carvings on that altar?", "Darryl: Just do me a favour.

I grew up here too.

Look around, Trudeau. Pentagrams, altars, offerings, all the tools of a freak fest.", "Andy: They call them Sabbaths. Which is hardly a freak fest. She was a solitary practitioner. She practiced her craft alone.", "Darryl: Mmm.", "Andy: Let me ask you something, Morris. Do you believe in U.F.O.'s?", "Darryl: Hell, no.", "Andy: Neither do I. But do you believe that there are people out there who do believe in U.F.O.'s?", "Darryl: Yes, but I think they're crazy.", "Andy: Well, then why can't you believe that there are people who believe they are witches.", "Darryl: Look, all I know is if you don't stop talking about witches, I'm gonna start questioning you.

Before Melinda was burned at the stake, she vowed that each generation of Warren witches would become stronger and stronger, culminating in the arrival of three sisters. (They walk to Piper's car.)

You look surprised.", "Prue: I don't know why. I'm furious. Not only have I been on this project since its inception, but I'm the curator who secured the entire exhibition.

You're hurt, you're angry, your pride is wounded. I understand all that. That's why you can't see that I'm doing you a favour.", "Prue: Excuse me?", "Roger: I had to take the exhibit away from you. If I hadn't, the board would of come and put a total stranger in my place. Think about it, Prue. I'm here for you. Not some stranger.

Believe me, everything will be different now.", "Phoebe: Well, at least our lives won't be boring.", "Prue: But they'll never be the same.", "Phoebe: And this is a bad thing?", "Prue: No. But it could be a big problem.", "Piper: Prue's right.

He confesses he is trying to save the girls from the risks of having their powers by removing the Book of Shadows from the manor . However, it appears he has teamed up with the new neighbors, who are shapeshifters trying to steal the book. The sisters vanquish the shape-shifters and their father accepts their destiny.

About us, our powers, how long?", "Victor: I knew there was a possibility. That's why I came back, to find out.

We could've destroyed them right there.", "Marshall: Then we'd have three dead witches and no way to get the book out of the house. Where would that put us?", "Cynda: Satisfied.", "Fritz: I still like my idea. We just kill two of them and we force the third to get the book out.", "Marshall: Let me explain this once again for the cerebrally impaired. These are not school girls we're dealing with. These are good witches. We can not alert them with our presence. At their full strength, battling them would be unpleasant. However, once we possess the book, we get its powers, we weaken theirs and they're easy pray.", "Fritz: You know, that sounds good in theory but, um, (he raises his voice) we've already tried everything.", "Marshall: We still have Victor.", "[Cut back to the manor.]", "Victor: What exactly are you accusing me of, Prue?", "Prue: Figure it out.", "Phoebe: Come on, Prue, take it easy.", "Prue: Are you kidding me?

Tell them why you're here.", "Piper: Prue, stop.", "Prue: For the first time in your life, Victor, tell them the truth.", "Victor: Alright, fine. You're right. I am after the book. That's exactly the reason why I came back.", "Phoebe: Dad.", "Victor: But not for the reasons you would like to believe. It would make it easier for you, Prue, wouldn't it? If I were evil.

[ "Piper encounters and eventually develops romantic feelings for the amiable ghost of a recently murdered Chinese-American man named Mark Chao ( John Cho ), who needs her help to be properly buried before an ancient Chinese spirit, Yama, can harvest his soul, and to settle the score with the Chinese gangster who had killed Mark in order to fake his own death to evade the police. Phoebe takes a job as a hotel psychic to pay for Prue's birthday present, and when foreseeing the death of a hotel guest, she has to try to keep him from being hit by a car. In the end, Piper exposes the criminal who is killed by Andy in self-defense. The being Yama appears and Mark throws the criminal's soul to him, sending him to Hell. Piper is able to convince Yama to leave Mark alone and after his burial, he moves on after saying a tearful goodbye. The encounter with Mark causes Prue to change her mind about celebrating her birthday and her sisters throw her a surprise party back at the Manor." ]

You're a romantic.", "Piper: Yep. Your turn. You want the sexy, silent type that finds you driving through town on the back of a Harley at 3:00 in the morning. A man who appreciates scented candles, body oils and Italian sheets (laughs).", "Phoebe: He's about hunger and lust and danger and even know you know all this, even know you know he'll never meet your friends or share a holiday meal with your family, you still can't stay away. And he recycles.", "Piper: He recycles?", "Phoebe: Yeah. And I think it goes without saying we both want a man who is well... employed.", "Piper: You're seriously twisted.

Maybe we can say this.", "Phoebe: Okay.", "Phoebe/Piper: I conjure thee, I conjure thee, I am the queen, you're the bee, as I desire so shall it be.

But I'm watching you down your third cup of coffee and we're talking about a nightmare you had while you asleep in the tub.

So he comes in to use the pay phone and who should he bump into but me, exiting the ladies' room.", "Piper: Phoebe, you threw his clothes all over the house.

My God, you haven't aged in twenty years.", "Jade: You could've asked for eternal youth, Grace, instead of wealth, power, all this.

Tell him Mrs. Spencer was expecting us.", "(Kirsten leaves.)", "Grace: You can't just move in here. People will be suspicious. What will I say?", "Jade: Say the truth.

Up top it says \"The wedding of Allison Michaels and Elliot Spencer\". Allison is supposed to marry Elliot tomorrow, not Jade.", "Phoebe: That's probably why she was crying.

I still have to find the jewelled poingnard to kill you with. See?", "(She shows Piper a picture in the book.

She has to find a innocent, put him under her spell, and marry him in a sanctified wedding.", "Phoebe: That doesn't sound any different than most of the single women in this city.", "Prue: She needs Elliot to impregnate her. That way her child would look normal on the outside but internally and mentally, her child would be pure demon.", "Piper: This is huge. A child born into the wealth and power of the Spencer Family?", "Prue: I don't think it's a coincidence that you're catering the wedding. I think it's one of those things that we can kind of look forward to as protectors of the innocent.", "Phoebe: Hmm...", "Piper: Well, before we ruin the wedding and my career, let's make sure we're right about Jade.", "[Scene: Spencer's house.

Allison, Elliot loves you, not Jade.", "Allison: If that were true, I would be the one walking down the aisle today.", "Prue: You still can be. All you have to do is crash your wedding.", "Allison: What?", "Prue: Look, it's not that crazy. The man that you love is marrying somebody else.

(She walks in Hannah's office and sits at the desk. She types in Hannah's name and searches for it. It says 'no listing'. She types in Rex's name and 'no listing' comes up. Rex astral projects behind her.)", "Rex: Someone's after you. Behind you. (Prue looks behind her.) You fear it's a warlock. With power greater than yours.", "(Prue runs out of the office.)", "[Cut to Hymie. He's in the warehouse.]", "[Cut back to Prue. She presses the elevator button. Rex astral projects next to her.]", "Rex: You hear a scream.

Police are there.]", "Morris: Tape found by the body. Security. Showing Prue exiting the vault, putting the missing tiara in her briefcase.", "Prue: What? That can't be.", "Morris: I just saw it for myself.", "Prue (to Phoebe) Somebody must have manipulated me into taking it.", "Phoebe: The same away someone manipulated me into being a witness against my own sister. Morris (to Andy) Any idea what they're talking about?", "Andy: Not a clue.", "Prue: You were with Rex tonight, weren't you?", "Phoebe: Yeah, Prue, but I don't think this is the time or place to get into that.", "Prue: No, I just meant that don't you find it a little coincidental that right when you guys start dating, all this is going on?", "Phoebe: No, I do not. And, besides, I thought you thought that Hannah was behind all this.", "Prue: I do.", "Morris: Excuse me. Ladies, do you mind if we ask a few questions?", "Prue: I already told you what happened, okay? I-I-I was working late, I heard a noise, I came down and I found Hymie.", "Andy: You didn't know he had the tape?", "Prue: No, of course not.", "Andy: And why exactly did you pick up the murder weapon again?", "Phoebe: You think she killed him. Is that it, Andy?", "Prue: Phoebe!", "Phoebe: No, I want to know how far he's gonna go with this and none of this has anything to do with the fact that she dumped you, does it?", "Prue: Stop that", "Andy: Look, we got Prue standing over the dead body of the very security guard who last saw her with the tiara.", "Morris: With the missing security tape showing her taking it.", "Andy: And holding the murder weapon which you were there to witness. What are we supposed to think?", "Prue: That I'm guilty as hell.", "Phoebe: You know she didn't do this.", "Morris: Then who did? Did you see anybody run past you on the way here?", "Phoebe: No.", "Andy: I'm sorry, Prue. Brian.", "Brian: Yeah?", "Andy: You're under arrest for suspicion of murder.", "(Brian puts handcuffs on Prue.)", "[Scene: Rex's apartment. Piper and Phoebe walk up to the door.]", "Piper: We should hire a lawyer.", "Phoebe: With what money?", "Piper: I don't know but we can't let her sit in jail all night.", "Phoebe: That's why we're here. To get Rex's help.", "(Phoebe rings the bell and knocks on the door.)", "Piper: What are you doing?", "(Phoebe opens the door and sees the empty, dark apartment.)", "Phoebe: This is so weird.", "Piper: Are you sure this is the right place?", "(Phoebe picks her lipstick off the floor.)", "Phoebe: This is my lipstick, I'm positive. He couldn't have moved out that fast. It must have been an illusion, all of it. Even my premonition.", "Piper: How is that possible?", "Phoebe: Mind control, astral projection, throwing charms, who knows? Prue is right about Rex, which means, I'm dating a warlock.", "Piper: Been there, done that.", "[Scene: Police station.

Did you just call me by my first name? I wasn't even sure you knew it.", "Morris: I heard Prue say it.", "Andy: She didn't do it, Morris.", "Morris: You keep saying that.", "Andy: It's too pat, too easy. The evidence just keeps falling in our laps.", "Morris: Maybe her sister was right. Maybe your personal feelings are getting in the way.", "Andy: We've had that conversation okay.", "Morris: Okay. But you have to admit. You stopped seeing Prue for a reason, you thought she was hiding something from you. How do you know she wasn't hiding something like this?", "Andy: A secret life of crime, I don't think so.", "Morris: You got a better explanation? You wanna book her into county jail?", "Andy: No, let's just keep her here for as long as we can. At least until the arraignment.", "[Scene: Manor. Piper comes down the stairs holding the tiara.]", "Phoebe: Piper, what are you doing?", "Piper: Getting rid of the evidence. They can't bust Prue for murder if they don't have a motive.", "Phoebe: Mouth, Leo's in the kitchen.", "Piper: Oh, he is? Really?", "Phoebe: Focus and think. The last thing we have to worry about is the legal system. We're up against a warlock now.", "Piper: Two, if Prue's right about Hannah.", "Phoebe: Exactly, which means we have to figure out what they want. It can't just be to frame Prue.", "Piper: Unless is doing so, somehow they think they can't get her powers, which is what warlocks want.", "Phoebe: Which means they're trying to divide us so that we don't have the power of three to stop them.", "Piper: What are we gonna do?", "Phoebe: We have no choice. (Phoebe hides the tiara in a closet. As she walks past the couch, you see Rex has astral projected into their house and is sitting on the couch.) Let's go.", "Piper: Go? Go where? Phoebe?", "Phoebe: Piper, it's gonna be all right.", "[Cut to the police station. Piper and Phoebe are around the back.]", "Piper: This is crazy.", "Phoebe: We have to get Prue out before Rex makes his move on us.", "Piper: But we can't break her out.", "Phoebe: Yes, we can. We're witches. All you have to do is freeze the guards and then unlock Prue's cell.", "Piper: Me? What about you?", "Phoebe: Somebody's gotta to stay out here in case something goes wrong. Ready? On three.", "Piper: No Phoebe.", "Phoebe: Three.", "(Phoebe opens the door and you see a guard standing there.

Piper gets the keys from a frozen guard.]", "Prue: What are you doing? (Piper unlocks the gate and walks over to Prue's cell.) Are you out of your mind?", "Piper: Just so we're clear. This was Phoebe's idea.", "(Piper unlocks Prue's cell.)", "Prue: What?", "Piper: We think Rex is a warlock and he's after our powers. Phoebe's waiting outside for you to rub her nose in it. (Prue stands there.) Well, come on, Prue. Before they unfreeze.", "Prue: Piper this isn't right.", "Piper: Well, neither is the gas chamber. Look if we're lucky we'll vanquish them and still get you back here by morning rounds. (Prue puts pillows under the blankets on the bed to make it look like she's still there.) That's pretty lame.", "Prue: Well, you got a better idea?", "Piper: No.", "Prue: Let's go.", "(Prue walks out of the cell and closes the cell door. They walk past a guard holding a donut.

Rex has taken a picture.)", "Rex: Quite photogenic. Now I should think the police will find this very interesting, to say the least.", "Prue: Rex.", "Phoebe: Wait, how did you know that we...", "Rex: What, that you'd be here? Well, let's just say that I've been watching your every move. Without you knowing it, of course.", "Prue: You b*st*rd.", "Rex: Don't get too angry, Prue. You wouldn't want to injure me with your power. I'm the only chance you have. While you were here, conducting your little prison break, Hannah was retrieving the tiara from your home. You should have gotten to rid it while you had the chance. Personally, I actually thought that was an excellent idea.", "Phoebe: Astral projection.", "Prue: What do you want?", "Rex: Your powers, of course. That's why I hired you in the first place, you know, to see if you really were the charmed ones. Then I waited to test your strength, see how best to make my move, and here we are.", "Phoebe: But why all the drama? Why didn't you just kill us and take our powers?", "Piper: Don't give him any ideas.", "Rex: No no no. I have seen exactly what you can do when you're been confronted directly. That's why I opted for blackmail. See, there is a special spell in the book of shadows that strips you of your powers forever. (He shows them the device that looks like a lantern.) And this device will capture those powers. Then you'll bring them to me.", "Prue: Go to hell.", "Rex: Yeah, I'd love to, darling. I miss it terribly. And this will help me return with honors. In return, I'll give you the photo and tell the police I simply misplaced the tiara. No theft, no motive for murder, no prison. You really don't have much time. Just until the prisons guards realize you've escaped. Well?", "[SCENE_BREAK]", "[Scene: Manor. Living room. They have the Book Of Shadows opened up to the spell.]", "Piper: It's a Relinquishment spell. If we read it aloud, it takes away all of our powers.", "Phoebe: Is there any way to reverse it?", "Piper: I don't know. It doesn't say.", "Phoebe: Well, then I say we flip to another page and find a spell that kicks Rex's warlock ass.", "Prue: We can't.", "Phoebe: Why can't we?", "Prue: Because for all we know he's here, right now, watching us. And if we don't do exactly as he says, he'll tell to police I've escaped.", "Phoebe: But we can't give up our powers without a fight. It's like giving up who we are, who we've become.", "Piper: Who we've come from.", "Phoebe: Exactly. These powers are gifts. Gifts that were given to us to protect and ultimately to pass on to the next generation.", "Prue: Don't you think that I know that? I mean, how do you think I feel, Phoebe? I'm the one who got us into this situation.", "Piper: Prue, it's not your fault.", "Phoebe: It's not.", "Prue: Yeah, but I'm the one that the Rex tricked. I'm the reason why we're having this conversation.", "Phoebe: There has gotta to be a way out of this.", "Piper: Like what? Become fugitives? Something tells me that's not the best way to go about protecting the innocent.", "Phoebe: Yeah, well, we can't protect the innocent without our powers. And, even worse, if we give them up, we'd be giving them up to evil.", "Prue: No, we can't let that happen.", "Piper: Well, we can't let you die in jail, either. Besides, with you behind bars, we'll be divided. Rex wins either way.", "Phoebe: I don't wanna have to do this.", "Piper: Neither do I, but we don't have a choice. All we can do is take the leap of faith and hope that somehow it all works out.", "(You see Leo listening from the other room.)", "[Cut to the attic.

Come on, Phoebe.", "Phoebe: Okay. “From whence they came, return them now, vanish the words, vanish our powers.”", "(You hear a chime and it gets really windy. All the words out of the Book disappear into the device.)", "Phoebe: (Phoebe flips through the Book. The pages are blank.) Look.

An elderly man shows up.) Died 8/20/98. (He picks up the phone and calls Morris.) Mr. Morris, Trudeau. Get your butt over here, I think I figured out who framed Prue.", "[Cut to Bucklands. Prue, Piper and Phoebe walk out of the elevator.]", "Phoebe: Ok, I say as soon as we get the photo and the tiara back, we knock the lantern out of Rex's hands and stomp on it.", "Prue: What will that do?", "Phoebe: I don't know. Free our powers? It's better than doing anything.", "Piper: How do we know this isn't just a trap?", "(Rex comes out of his office.)", "Rex: You don't, actually. Nevertheless, here you are. Powerless, I presume.", "Prue: Where's Hannah?", "Rex: Lurking. That's what she does best. The lantern, if you please. (Prue hands him the lantern.) It all feels a little anticlimactic, don't you think? Too easy, almost. It feels as if we need a more satisfying ending.", "(Hannah comes out of the office as a panther.)", "Phoebe: Oh, oh.", "[Cut to the attic. Leo walks in and goes over to the Book Of Shadows. He holds his hands above it, light comes out of them and all the writing appears back on the pages.]", "[Cut back to Bucklands.

Wait, it wasn't my fault. I didn't fail. He did. No, please, no.

Something or someone must have done it. It couldn't happened on its own.", "Piper: Why not? It's magic.", "(Leo enters the attic.)", "Leo: Knock knock.", "Piper: Leo.", "Leo: The front door was open.

Hope that I'm wrong?", "Piper: Well, you could be. That premonition of yours was definitely in the future.", "Phoebe: Yeah, but the problem is I keep thinking about the past.

I don't think so.", "Prue: Piper, those things are real. Okay, superstitions are like old wives tales invented to explain somebody's misfortune.", "Piper: Statistics show more bad things happen on Friday the 13th than any other day.

If I didn't know any better, I'd say literally scared to death. Do you visit occult book stores at midnight often?", "Prue: No, of course not.

I checked it against the handwriting on the back of the spirit board.", "(They sit down at the bar.)", "Piper: Wow, this is the first time we've found anything mum's written in the book.", "Prue: Well, she must have known that this demon would appear in our lifetime and she wanted to warn us against him.", "Piper: I don't like the sound of that.", "Prue: Well, if he can kill thirteen unmarried witches by midnight, he'll be free from the underworld to wreck his terror every single day.", "Piper: Unmarried. Like being single doesn't have enough problems.

But mum wrote that in the face of our greatest fear, our powers are paralised.", "Piper: Wait a minute, we're on the most wanted list and we're defenseless? Didn't mum say anything about how to get rid of him?", "Prue: Just to release our fear.", "Piper: How do we do that?", "Prue: I don't know. That's all she wrote. Look, I know that you're afraid of flying.", "Piper: That's not really a fear, I just prefer buses.", "Prue: Well, as long as you stay in a crowded restaurant you'll be fine.

That's why you never took swimming lessons. We've always known that was the reason, it's okay.", "Prue: Yeah, well, don't worry about me, I'll be fine. I've gotta go.", "Piper: Call me when you get to Bucklands.", "Prue: I'm not going to Bucklands.

Why didn't you leave your name? Why did you just duck out?", "Prue: Because I wanted to avoid this.

[ "Prue gets a magical distress call from a young witch named Max who is forced into helping two thieves rob a bank and is captured and forced to take part in the robbery too. Max's father tries to intervene and is shot, and Prue and Max are forced to leave him behind. At the same time, Leo returns and while fixing a chandelier, Phoebe discovers him levitating and learns that he is a Whitelighter, guardian angels of good witches who is protecting Max by directing Prue to him. He truly loves Piper, but it is forbidden and he needs to figure out how to break up with her. Prue gets Max to short out the bomb that the thieves are using to force their co-operation and trap them in the vault. As Max's father lies dying, Leo arrives and heals his wound and convinces him to get over his wife's death and be a father to his son. Helping Max restores Prue's faith in having children." ]

I never even believed in the Woogyman.", "Prue: No, but Phoebe did. She knows the story by heart.", "Piper: Something tells me she's not in the mood to share it.", "Prue: Alright, we know that his source of power is in the basement. So, if we can weaken him, maybe we can weaken his hold on Phoebe just long enough for her to tell us the spell.", "Piper: How do we do that? We don't even know what it is or how to fight it.", "Phoebe: Help! Please, I need you.", "(Prue and Piper walk in the kitchen.)", "Prue: Okay. We have a choice. So, we're gonna need a .", "Piper: Light. (Prue gets a torch out of a drawer.) No. The light. Grams's story, remember? She said something about using it to guide you through the shadows. Or was it to the shadow?", "Prue: That doesn't make sense, using a light to find the shadows? Shadows retreat from the light and they thrive from the darkness. Kind of like this.", "Piper: Or in the basement.

Your sister's evil now.", "Prue: Come on, Phoebe. You've got to fight it. You're good. (Phoebe touches a picture on the wall and has the same premonition as before with Grams in it.)

I have to sit for the university board, and for now it looks like I'm covering the classes.", "Piper: Oh, that's too bad. I mean, I don't mean you. I mean", "Josh: I know what you mean.

Plead shadows?", "Piper: Anyway, everyone seems to be back to normal but that doesn't erase their actions.", "Prue: Yeah, well, I wish it did, it could get me off Claire's bad side, if she has a good one.", "Phoebe: I'm beginning to wonder if I have a good one. (Prue and Piper stare at her.) Well, I am. I mean not any more so than anyone else.", "Prue: Yeah, well the important thing is the good side won out.", "Phoebe: Yeah, but I must have been more susceptible than either one of you, otherwise he wouldn't of chosen me, right? Right?", "Piper: You were the only one that was born in the house, that makes you more connected to it. That spiritual nexus thing.", "Phoebe: That's exactly my point. I could go either way. Good or evil. Kinda freaky. I do have to tell you I am gonna miss that cool power though.", "Piper: Um, if Grams put away the shadow and it came back", "Prue: Means it can come back again. Okay, it's time. Every witch before us has added to the Book of Shadows. We need to warn who comes next.

Now remember what I told you on the phone.", "Prue: This woman's family has more money than God and if we land this account, it could put Bucklands in the black for years.", "(They stop outside Claire's office.)", "Claire: Exactly. You ready?", "Prue: Of course I am.", "(They walk inside. The client is waiting there.)", "Claire: Helena Statler. I would like you to meet Prue Halliwell. One of our best and brightest young specialists.", "Helena: Best and brightest? That's quite an introduction.", "Prue: Yes it is. Maybe I should get a raise?", "Claire: Let's have a seat shall we?", "Helena: Miss Halliwell, my brother and I hold an extensive collection of antiquities. If we were to retain your firm, you'd be cataloguing and praising and selling the finest pieces you'd seen in your career. Maybe your life.", "Prue: Just what kind of collection are we talking about exactly?", "Helena: The kind that occupies three buildings at Warehouse Flats. We have art and artefacts from every period and movement in history. From Egyptian mummies to Jasper Jonce. We would want a sample appraisal of course.", "Claire: Oh, Prue will be there today if you like?", "Prue: At the warehouse flats?", "Helena: Is that a problem?", "Prue: No. No, I'm sure that I can handle it.", "[Scene: Quake. Piper's talking to an employee.]", "Piper: Twelve potato ricers? What kind of restaurant needs twelve potato ricers? Just put them in the back with the box with the lemon ringers.", "(He leaves. Phoebe walks up to her.)", "Phoebe: I just called Bucklands and they said that Prue left the office for a meeting.", "Piper: What? She promised she would go straight home.", "Phoebe: Wait, it gets worse. I finally found the crystal sword in the Book of Shadows...", "Piper: Shh...", "Phoebe: It's the symbol of the Lord's of War. They're a clan of super natural warriors. They've been around since time began.", "Piper: What do they want?", "Phoebe: To start war. They started most of the major wars in history and once they're done in one place, they get reincarnated in some other part of the world and start all over again.", "Piper: So, is he flesh and blood?", "Phoebe: Yes, but the book says as long as they have their sword they're not only protected, they're immune to the weapons of man.", "Piper: So, we have this invulnerable guy running around with a sword who wants to start a war?", "Phoebe: Well, the Lord's of War may be invulnerable but they do have a code of honour and when one of them is disgraced, he has to steal his abilities back.", "Piper: So, what does this have to do with Prue?", "Phoebe: One of the things he has to steal back is the magic of a first born witch. They're supposed to be the strongest.", "(An employee comes up to Piper.)", "Employee: Uh, Piper, where...?", "Piper: Not now, not now. (He walks away.) Okay, I'll call the night shift manager, see if he can cover for me, you call Prue on her cell phone. We gotta find her. Quickly.", "[SCENE_BREAK]", "[Scene: Warehouse Flats. Prue arrives in her car. She walks inside a dark building.]", "Prue: Miss Statler? Miss Statler?", "(Helena walks out from a dark croner.)", "Helena: Hello, Miss Halliwell. (Prue's phone rings and she turns it off.) Oh, I'm sorry, I hope I didn't scare you.", "Prue: No, I don't really scare that easily.", "Helena: So, what do you think of our collection?", "Prue: I think you have exquisite taste.", "Helena: My brother and I have been collecting our entire lives. It's our binding passion.", "Prue: Is this a Roman vessel?", "Helena: Why don't you tell me?", "Prue: I've never seen one in such good condition. The handles represent Venus and the relief detail scenes of Roman bass and Kara Koa. It probably dates back to 210 B.C. It's very rare and priceless.", "Helena: Wow, Claire was right, you really are something. What can you tell me about this item?", "(Prue walks over to a table. A pillory is on it.)", "Prue: It's a pillory. The markings are constiant, so I say it dates back to the inquisition. (She puts her arms in the holes.) But it's missing a piece.", "Helena: The victims arms were held in place by a bolt of restraint. (Steel rods shot across the top of the arm holes and traps her arms inside.) Prue Halliwell, my brother Gabriel.", "(Gabriel walks in the room.)", "Gabriel: I'd shake your hand but it's clearly otherwise engaged.", "Prue: What are you doing?", "Helena: Killing a witch.", "Gabriel: Your ancestor's power animated from her hands. No doubt yours does too.", "Prue: My ancestor?", "Helena: A witch named Brianna. You're not the only one that's done research. (Prue frees her hands by using her power and throws Miss Statler against the wall. She grabs an axe and hits Gabriel in the chest. It doesn't harm him. Prue runs outside and drives off in her car.) How did she do that?", "Gabriel: She's not like her ancestor, she channels her power through her eyes, not her hands. I won't make that mistake again.", "Helena: She knows about us now. We have to move fast to attack her at home.", "Gabriel: No, home is where she has the power of three to protect her. We'll think of another way.", "[Scene: Manor. Living room. Prue and Piper are there.]", "Prue: I hit Gabriel in the chest with an axe and he didn't even wink.", "Piper: As long as he has his sword, he's immune to the weapons of man. Which we could've told you if you hadn't turned off your cell phone.", "Prue: Well, I got away and I'm fine.", "(Phoebe comes down the stairs with the Book of Shadows.)", "Phoebe: Okay, I found our ancestor Brianna. She was our great, great, great aunt. She could move things with her mind like Prue. Now, she disgraced Gabriel during the premium war, she used her power to take away his sword. I guess Gabriel is trying to earn his abilities back.", "Prue: Great. So, some guy couldn't keep it in his sheath and now I'm marked for death.", "Piper: Well, some men are very sensitive about their weapons.", "Phoebe: Lords of War and their weapons and their weapons are supposed to be inseparable like Thor and his hammer and I guess Brianna was able to send his sword hundreds of miles away.", "Prue: Alright, sword I can move, but hundreds of miles away? I'm not that powerful.", "Phoebe: I thought about that and I found this incantation. To multiply your strength, recite these words at length.", "(Phoebe shows Prue a page in the Book.)", "Prue: Alright, so all I have to do is say this incantation and I'll be stronger.", "Phoebe: Hopefully strong enough to separate Gabriel and his sword.", "Prue: Sounds like a plan to me.", "Piper: Uh, time out. Bad idea.", "Phoebe: Why, because it's mine?", "Piper: No, because there might be a power of three solution to this.", "Prue: Yeah, but the Book of Shadows doesn't say that. And besides it's me he's after not you and Phoebe.", "Piper: Okay, okay, maybe we should lay low for a few days, you know, use up our sick days.", "Prue: And wait for Gabriel to find us? And he might hurt one of you to get to me and I will not take that risk. (She stands up.)", "Piper: Okay, Prue, but wait, okay wait, at least let us vote on this.", "Prue: Alright. All in favour of me saying the incantation raise their hands. (Phoebe and Prue raise their hands.) Sorry sis, majority rules. (She goes upstairs.)", "Piper: But Prue...", "Prue: (to herself) \"Take my powers blessed be, multiply their strength by three.\"", "(Piper gives Phoebe a look.)", "Phoebe: What?", "Piper: You know what.", "Phoebe: I'm sorry but I really don't have a problem with Prue saying the incantation.", "Piper: The problem is we're in this together and together we're supposed to solve our problems.", "Phoebe: And together we rely on the the Book of Shadows when we're in trouble. Think about it, Piper, what's the worst thing that could happen? (They hear thunder coming from the attic.)", "Piper: What did I tell you? (They run up the stairs.)", "[Cut to the attic. Prue is kneeling on the floor. There is a light swirling around her.]", "Piper: Oh my God!", "Phoebe: Oh my God!", "(Prue multiplies. The three Prue's stand up.)", "Phoebe: Prue?", "All three Prue's: What?", "Phoebe: Okay. (she counts) 1, 2, 3.", "[SCENE_BREAK]", "[Scene: Manor. Phoebe and Piper are standing in front of the bathroom door.]", "Phoebe: Hello? There are other people in this house that have styling needs too.", "Piper: Is there a Prue in there also?", "Phoebe: One of them, yes.", "Piper: I'm gonna have to wash my hair in the kitchen sink if I want to get to work on time. Do you know which is the real Prue yet?", "Phoebe: Oh, I don't know. It could be the upstairs bathroom hogging Prue, or the downstairs bathroom hogging Prue, or the sitting in the kitchen drinking all the coffee Prue.", "(Prue comes out of the bathroom.)", "Prue: Is there a problem?", "Piper: Aside from you going off and casting a spell that's kept all our bathrooms busy for the past three hours. Nothing.", "Prue: Don't blame me, I didn't cast the spell.", "Phoebe: Great, you're a clone.", "Prue: Well, no, I'm not exactly a clone, I mean I do have all of Prue's memories up until the time she cast the spell, so, in a lot of ways I am Prue.", "Piper: Then it is your fault.", "Prue: No, it's not, and neither is the lack of hot water.", "(Prue walks away.)", "Phoebe: Oh, you didn't. Geez.", "Piper: This is ridiculous. This is like, this is like the 'Parent Trap' with a B cup.", "Phoebe: I think I might've just found a way to take some of the Disney out of our life.", "[Cut to the foyer. All three Prue's are there.]", "Prue #1: You look great.", "Prue #2: No, you look great.", "Prue #3: Is my skirt tight enough?", "Prue #2: Yes.", "Prue #1: It's perfect.", "(Phoebe and Piper come down the stairs.)", "Phoebe: Okay, which one of you is the real Prue?", "(They all raise their hands.)", "Piper: Stop that.", "Prue #1: I'm the real Prue.", "Phoebe: Okay, then you get the black sweater.", "(Phoebe hands her a sweater.)", "Prue: Phoebe, what are you doing?", "Phoebe: I'm colour coding. It's the only way we're gonna be able to tell the three of you apart. Okay, clone A gets the pink sweater...", "(She hands it to her.)", "Pink Prue: Thank you.", "Phoebe: And B gets the blue one.", "Blue Prue: Thanks.", "Piper: Handy with the sweaters.", "Phoebe: Thanks. But it's only a temporary solution.", "Piper: And what about the spell?", "Pink Prue: Oh, the spell's temporary too. We're only here as long as we're needed.", "Blue Prue: We were called for a reason. Once the reason's gone the spell wears out and we disappear.", "Pink Prue: Once we vanquish Gabriel.", "Piper: And how are we planning on doing this?", "Pink Prue: Funny you should ask, see I was thinking...", "Blue Prue: Tthat we could find Gabriel by tracking down the ownership records for that Roman vessel.", "Pink Prue: And Bucklands antiquities data base.", "Real Prue: That's why I called my assistant... (Pink Prue clears her throat) our assistant and she's already on it.", "Blue Prue: Are we good or what?", "Piper: So, once you know where he lives are you sure you have the power to do the job?", "Real Prue: Observe. Ladies, shall we. (All three Prue's use their powers and lift up the marble statue.)

Really? Now you're starting to look suspicious.", "Andy: Remember a few months ago we ordered tickets to the Bay Area Music Awards? They came in the mail. Thought you might want them.", "Pink Prue: That is so sweet.", "Andy: You can take anyone you want. Even an old boyfriend who's just a friend now but who loves good music.", "Pink Prue: I'll take that under consideration.", "Andy: He pondered that. (They smile.) I'll see ya.", "(He leaves and pink Prue closes the door.)", "Pink Prue: Why did we break up with him?", "Real Prue: He broke up with us first, remember?", "Pink Prue: Too bad.", "(Blue Prue slams down the phone.)", "Blue Prue: Houston, we have a problem.", "Phoebe: Raging clone hormones?", "Blue Prue: No. That was Claire calling. She said that if I, well, one of us, don't get to the office pronto, you'll be looking for a new job.", "Real Prue: Okay, okay, we can swing this.", "Piper: No, no, no, wait. You're not seriously thinking of leaving the house?", "Phoebe: You can't hide three you's at the office.", "Blue Prue: Two of us may not be able to separate Gabriel from his sword but we can certainly fight him off.", "Pink Prue: Which means two of us can go save Prue's job and whoever's left behind can go to the Quake with Piper.", "Piper: Oh, no, no, no, no. Forget it.", "Real Prue: Piper, you have an acting power, and besides Phoebe, your premonition, it didn't happen at Quake, right?", "Phoebe: I can't be sure.", "Real Prue: Still, worst case scenario, Piper freezes Gabriel and she runs.", "Piper: No, no, I don't like this idea. I don't like it at all. I think we should all stay together, all five of us.", "Phoebe: I think Piper's right. The book said it requires the strength of three to take on Gabriel.

What happened?", "Pink Prue: Claire, um, I've already made arrangements to make a personal apology and put Bucklands back in the running.

That wouldn't include a crystal sword that sucks away your soul.", "Prue: Right, but I've already proven that you can't take his sword away from him.", "Phoebe: Why do we have to take it away? Why can't we move Gabriel and his sword even closer?", "Prue: Pheebs, you are so smart.", "(She hugs Phoebe and Phoebe has a premonition.)", "Phoebe: Speaking of getting closer, I think Gabriel's on his way here.", "[Scene: Coroner's office. Andy's there looking at Pink Prue's body.]", "Andy: And these fingerprints are cross referenced?", "Coroner: Okay, I fingerprinted Jane Doe myself and the reference prints you asked for Prudence Halliwell came out of her birth certificate from the archives which I took the liberty of verifying through her DNV records.", "Andy: And Prue Halliwell's prints are an identical match to Jane Doe's?", "Coroner: Down to the last whirl.", "Andy: That's statistically impossible. Not even identical twins have a natural variation.", "Coroner: Then I'd get on the horn to Ripley's Believe It Or Not because as far as forensic medicine can tell, this woman is Prue Halliwell.", "Andy: You leave Ripley's out of the loop a long with everyone else who was with me.", "[Scene: Manor. Prue is waiting for Gabriel. The lights turn off. Prue hears a noise and puts her sunglasses on. A bomb flies through the window and gives off a bright light. Gabriel jumps through the window.]", "Gabriel: Clever witch.", "(Prue runs into another room. Gabriel follows her and sees Phoebe's martial arts dummy. He throws his sword at it. Prue, Piper and Phoebe come out from behind the the couch. Piper freezes him.)", "Piper: Hey, check out G.I. Joe. (Phoebe kicks Gabriel and he flies against the wall.) It worked.", "(Prue gets the crystal sword out of the dummy.)", "Gabriel: My weapon.", "Prue: It's all yours. (She uses her powers and the sword flies into Gabriel. He explodes and disappears. The lights turn back on.)", "Piper: Peace at last.", "Prue: Well, too bad you didn't knock him back into the statue. (The doorbell rings) It's his army. Kidding, kidding. (Prue answers the door. Andy's standing there.) Andy, it's four in the morning.", "Andy: This isn't a social call, Prue. I need you to come with me.", "Prue: Where to?", "Andy: City morgue. I'll drive.", "[Scene: Coroner's office. Andy and Prue walk in.]", "Prue: Are you gonna tell me what this is all about because you haven't said a word since we got in the car?", "Andy: I'll show you what this is about. (He pulls out the slab. It's only got clothes on it.)", "Prue: I don't get it.", "Andy: I had a body on this slab. She was identical to you right down to your fingerprints.", "Prue: Andy, I don't know what you want me to say.", "Andy: You know, ever since you came back into my life it's been one weird coincidence after another. And you don't know what to say.", "Prue: Why don't you tell me what you want to hear. Andy, I'm sorry but there is nothing but clothes on that slab, so why don't you just take me home.", "[Scene: Quake. Piper and Phoebe are sitting at a table. Prue comes up and sits down. She's holding a gift basket. Phoebe is reading a newspaper.]", "Phoebe: \"Curiously, the only item found by the slain body of Helena Statler was a blue sweater.\"", "Prue: That's a shame because I kinda liked that sweater.", "Phoebe: What's with the gift basket?", "Prue: Oh, it's a thank you for my assistant. Believe me, she earned it.", "Piper: Tumbler number 345, 46 and 47. And that ladies is the end of Quake's yearly inventory.", "Phoebe: And the end of crowded bathrooms, the end of no hot water and the end of three Prue's hogging all the good clothes.", "Prue: You know one day you might actually hear what you sound like when you say stuff like that.", "Phoebe: And I will find myself sassy and delightful.", "Prue: I won't count on it. Alright, to me, myself and I, and to you guys. I couldn't have done it without you, thank you.", "Phoebe: And to me for kicking some serious demon butt.", "Prue: And to clones who vanished without a trace.", "Piper: Poor Andy, do you think he'll ever figure it out?", "Prue: I don't know but uh, I wouldn't underestimate him. After what happened this morning we're gonna have to be extra careful.", "[Scene: Andy's office. He has a folder of Prue's confidential files. He's looking through newspaper clippings and finds one on witchcraft. He then picks up the Bay Area Music Awards tickets and her fingerprints chart. He puts it all back in his draw and sits back in his chair.]" ]
