PHOEBE: Today we're gonna be talking about the five-minute orgasm ... (She turns to the side and reaches for the book on the table.) [INT. TV STUDIO - TALK SHOW SET - DAY] PHOEBE: ... a new book written by Nina Halter. (The camera pulls back and we see that PHOEBE is in a television studio on stage for a talk show called, "Chit Chat / This and That". PHOEBE turns to the woman sitting in the chair next to her.) PHOEBE: Hi, Nina. Welcome. NINA HALTER: Thank you. It's an honor to be on your show, Phoebe. PHOEBE: Oh, you're gonna get me in trouble. It's not my show. I'm just the guest host. NINA HALTER: Oh, I'm sorry, but I've been watching all week, and I love, love, love your topics. So provocative. PHOEBE: Thank you very much. (PHOEBE picks up the book and shows the cover again.) PHOEBE: And speaking of provocative, we should probably talk about this book here of yours. NINA HALTER: It's wonderful, isn't it? PHOEBE: Well, to be honest with you, I haven't been able to read the whole thing, because I haven't had time, but I love the title-- the five-minute orgasm. Amazing. Ok, so I guess the first question would be why only five minutes? I mean, don't you think that's rushing it a bit? NINA HALTER: You misunderstood. It's not about having one in five minutes. It's about having an orgasm for five minutes. (PHOEBE'S eyes widen and she glances down at the book with renewed interest.) PHOEBE: Oh. Oh. Well, is this my copy? NINA HALTER: Uh-huh. (PHOEBE flips through the book.) PHOEBE: Ok, so, uh, let's just cut to the chase here, and I'm gonna ask you, how does one experience this phenomenon? NINA HALTER: Well, ... CUT TO: [INT. MANOR - CONSERVATORY - DAY -- CONTINUOUS] (Camera opens on the television set with a close up of NINA HALTER as she continues to answer PHOEBE'S question.) NINA HALTER: (from tv) It's really quite simple, really. First-- (All around the television set, there's a large gust of wind blowing in the Conservatory. The television finally blacks out while both television and cart roll out and away, its plug pulled out from the wall as the strong wind continues to blow in the room.) (Clinging onto the door frame for dear life is PIPER. She watches as the television set and cart roll toward the hole in the center of the floor leading into oblivion. Standing over the hole with his hand outstretched is GITH. He watches PIPER and controls the vortex of wind blowing in the room.) (PIPER swings her arm and tries to hit GITH. She succeeds in blowing up a vase full of red roses. She returns her hand back to clinging onto the door frame.) (GITH slowly raises his other hand and makes the hole in the floor a little larger.) PIPER: (yells) Chris! (CHRIS orbs into the sitting room behind PIPER. He looks around and assesses the situation. He sees the GITH demon and the furniture that falls into the hole in the floor.) CHRIS PERRY: (motions) Piper, let's go! PIPER: No! Wyatt's upstairs. Just go get my sisters! (CHRIS orbs out of the room.) CUT TO: [INT. TV STUDIO - TALK SHOW SET - DAY -- CONTINUOUS] (PHOEBE looks down at the book in her hand.) PHOEBE: This is just fascinating stuff. (In the wings, CHRIS orbs into the studio. He waves his arms and hoarsely whispers her name, desperately trying to get her attention, but PHOEBE is busy with the television show.) PHOEBE: Um, I have to ask you, does it work for guys, too? (CHRIS waves his arms.) NINA HALTER: (hesitates) Well, there is a technique, but it's quite dangerous. (Behind the curtain, CHRIS jumps up and down trying to get her attention.) PHOEBE: Dangerous? Really? (Frustrated, CHRIS gives up and orbs out of the television studio.) CUT TO: [INT. MANOR - CONSERVATORY - DAY -- CONTINUOUS] (GITH has a wide grin on his face. The vortex continues to blow and PIPER still clings to the door frame for dear life. She waves her hand and blows up the chandelier above GITH. The chandelier falls hitting GITH on the back of his head. He falls forward to the floor, breaking his concentration and closing both the vortex and the hole in the ground.) GITH: Aah! (The roaring wind stops. GITH quickly gets to his feet and runs out of the Conservatory.) PIPER: Oh, no, you don't! (PIPER takes off after him. She chases him through the sitting room and into the dining room. GITH stops at the dining room table.) [INT. MANOR - DINING ROOM / MAIN HALL - DAY - CONTINUOUS] (As soon as PIPER clears the hallway, GITH raises his hand toward her. His hand glows blood red. The vortex of wind starts up again along with an opening in the floor. PIPER grabs ahold of the banister. This wind literally picks PIPER off of her feet, the only thing stopping her from being sucked into the hole in the floor is her clinging to the stair railing.) (GITH watches with glee. He raises his other hand to make the hole in the ground larger. The wind blows stronger and PIPER barely can keep her hold on the stair railing.) CUT TO: [INT. RETIREMENT HOME - DAY -- CONTINUOUS] (In the back of the retirement home, CHRIS orbs into the room.) (The old Magician at the front of the room coughs as he's in the middle of his trick. Next to him, dressed in the assistant's uniform is his wife. Inside the box prop which is supposed to be sawed in half if PAIGE.) (The Magician struggles to pull the two box halves apart. He grunts and groans in frustration. Finally he looks at his wife.) CHARLEY RAWLS (THE MAGICIAN): I don't understand it. This trick worked in '68. MRS. RAWLS (ASSISTANT): (whispers) You forgot the saws, dear. CHARLEY RAWLS (THE MAGICIAN): Forgot the what's? PAIGE: It's ok. I got you covered. [CUE SOUND: ORBING] (Through the split in the box, we see the white light shine inside.) (The Magician successfully pulls the box apart with ease. The audience gasps in surprise, then applauds. From the back of the room, CHRIS watches the trick with a grim, impatient look on his face.) (The Magician smiles with pleasure at the applause. He glances down at the box.) (PAIGE turns her head and glances over at CHRIS who shrugs at her. She gives him "the look" as she can't really do anything at the moment.) (CHRIS orbs out of the room.) (The applause continues and the Magician takes his bows.) CUT TO: [INT. MANOR - DINING ROOM/ MAIN HALL - DAY -- CONTINUOUS] (PIPER is still clinging to the stair banister as she struggles to keep from being sucked into the hole in the floor by the vortex. The GITH DEMON has both his hands stretched out toward PIPER.) (Finally, the wind is too much for PIPER. She screams as she lets go of the banister and slowly finds herself being pulled into the hole in the floor.) (On the floor, PIPER flips over, waves her hands and blasts the GITH DEMON in his left shoulder. He lets out a yelp of pain. The hole immediately closes and the vortex stops.) (The GITH DEMON glances down at his injured shoulder, looks back at PIPER and vanishes out of the room.) (Exhausted, PIPER slumps back down on the floor.) CUT TO END OF TEASER ROLL TITLE CREDIT (COMMERCIAL SET) FADE IN. [EXT. VARIOUS SAN FRANCISCO CITY (STOCK) - DAY] [EXT. HALLIWELL MANOR (STOCK) - DAY] [INT. MANOR - CONSERVATORY - DAY] (The sisters are all at home cleaning up the mess in the Conservatory. CHRIS sits at the table in the back of the room leafing through the Book of Shadows. PAIGE picks up the long stemmed roses off the floor and gathers them in her lap. PHOEBE has her arms full of clothing.) PHOEBE: A vortex did all of this? (PIPER is also kneeling picking up more clothes off the floor.) PIPER: Vortex, whirlpool, I don't know. Whatever. PAIGE: Well, if it's a whirlpool, there'd probably be some water. CHRIS PERRY: The fineries of what almost killed Piper aren't important. The point is, she was almost killed, and no one was here to help. PAIGE: You're right. I'm sorry. I was kind of tied up or cut in half. PHOEBE: And I was interviewing the most fascinating woman. PIPER: Oh, the orgasm lady. That show was great. At least, what I saw of it before the TV was sucked into oblivion. I hope you brought home that book. PHOEBE: Mm-hmm. CHRIS PERRY: (perturbed) Piper ... Doesn't it bother you you had to vanquish that demon alone? PIPER: Yeah. Well, sure, but, you know, we all have lives, which is why I need this place cleaned up before my guests arrive. PAIGE: Who's coming? PIPER: Mary has designed a fashion line, and she wants to show us all. PAIGE: (envious) I love clothes. CHRIS PERRY: Not so fast. We got a demon to hunt, if I can find him in here. (He flips the page.) PIPER: Ok, but regardless of what you find in there, I'm gonna hang out with my friends, because I will have a normal life if it kills me! (PIPER slaps her hands on her thighs for emphasis and completely forgets that she has a bandage wrapped around her hand.) PIPER: Ow. (PIPER lifts up her hand. PHOEBE notices the bandage.) PHOEBE: Piper, why don't you have Leo heal that when he comes to pick up Wyatt? PIPER: Because I don't need magic to heal a cut. PAIGE: Ugh! I'd use magic for everything, if I could. PIPER: Well, if I had done this fighting a demon, that would be one thing, but I did it in the kitchen. The chef did it in the kitchen, so that person will wear this bandage for the shame of it all. (PIPER holds up her hand for emphasis. CHRIS closes the Book and stands up and walks over toward them.) CHRIS PERRY: Well, this book is not gonna help us. But I've seen vortexes like that before. PAIGE: You know, this job would be so much easier if there weren't so many roses. (PAIGE stands up and puts down the arm load of long-stemmed roses on the side, then turns to glare at PHOEBE.) PIPER: What's with roses? PHOEBE: I think Jason thinks that he's losing me. And as an empath, I don't know who's feeling what anymore, and I just -- I just have my guard up. CHRIS PERRY: (insistent) You should be aware that these vortexes suck their victims into pocket realms or alternate realities. (PAIGE answers PHOEBE'S concern while CHRIS gets more and more frustrated that no one cares about what he's saying.) PAIGE: You know, sometimes guys can be funny like that, you know? The more you pull away, the more they come back at you. PHOEBE: Yeah, but I'm not pulling away. I really like him. CHRIS PERRY: (loudly) Dangerous alternate realities, people, based on fantasies, desires, dreams. PIPER: (to CHRIS) Shh. (to PHOEBE) So stop worrying about it, and let him wine and dine you. I mean, a little wooing never killed anyone. CHRIS PERRY: (interrupts) But a demon can, so can we please, please, let's focus! Piper, you were almost sent to another world. That takes serious magic. PAIGE: (gets an idea) Magic. Brilliant idea. (She thinks about it.) PAIGE: (reciting) Let the object of objection become but a dream, as I cause the seen to be unseen. (PAIGE turns around as the spell works on the room behind them and puts everything back into place.) (Satisfied with the results, PAIGE turns to look at her sisters.) PAIGE: Well, call me butter, 'cause I'm on a roll. PIPER: (pleased) Wow. That's much better. Thanks, Paige. PAIGE: Yep. Well, gotta get back to the temp job. Don't know how much longer those old folks are gonna be alive. (PAIGE heads for the door. PHOEBE stands up to follow her.) PHOEBE: And I'll walk you out, 'cause I have to meet Jason for lunch. CHRIS PERRY: (frustrated) No! No! No, no, no. We have a demon to hunt. Get back here! PAIGE: See ya! PHOEBE: We'll talk about it later. (CHRIS closes his eyes and looks up at the ceiling. PIPER stands up and takes pity on him. She rests the side of her arm on his shoulder.) PIPER: You know, you are our new favorite Whitelighter and all, but you need to lighten up. CHRIS PERRY: No, you three need to get serious, because if you keep putting your personal lives before your wiccan duties, you're gonna pay for it. PIPER: Maybe so, but not today. I scared away the demon. He's not coming back. I have friends coming, and I also have chocolate chip cookies in the oven. (PIPER walks away and leaves the room. CHRIS rolls his eyes. He turns and looks down at WYATT who is in his playpen.) CHRIS PERRY: It's your fault I have to do this now. (CHRIS orbs out of the room.) CUT TO: [INT. GITH'S LAIR -- NIGHT] (Inside the GITH'S lair, he grunts with pain as he tends to his wounded shoulder.) (CHRIS orbs into the cave.) (At first, GITH doesn't notice CHRIS, then he raises his head and sees CHRIS standing there. He's immediately alarmed.) GITH: You! CHRIS PERRY: (holds up his arm to stave off an attack) Wait! Before you -- (GITH holds out his glowing red hand toward CHRIS. A vortex and a hole open up underneath him swallowing him up. CHRIS orbs and manages to escape the hole as it seals up.) (GITH goes back to tending his wound.) (CHRIS re-orbs into the cave behind GITH.) CHRIS PERRY: Would you just relax? I didn't come here to vanquish you. GITH: How did you find me here? No one's ever been to my lair. CHRIS PERRY: I didn't have to find you, Gith. I know you ... from the future. I came here to give you what you want ... The Charmed Ones. CUT TO: [EXT. SAN FRANCISCO CITY (STOCK) - DAY] [EXT. GARDEN RESTAURANT -- DAY] (PHOEBE and JASON sit at a table next to each other during their lunch.) JASON DEAN: So I'm sitting there in the middle of this board meeting, and I completely lose all concentration, because all I could think about is you. It's like they were speaking a foreign language. PHOEBE: (laughs) Well, you were in Hong Kong. JASON DEAN: The point is I flew straight back. PHOEBE: So you could regain your concentration? JASON DEAN: To concentrate on you. PHOEBE: Well, I will try to keep your mind from wandering. JASON DEAN: So what's it gonna be tonight -- box seats at La Bohme or backstage at Metallica? (A WOMAN carrying a small book approaches the table and interrupts them. It appears that she's a fan.) FAN (WOMAN): Phoebe? Oh, my god! I'm sorry. Could you -- (She holds out her book for PHOEBE to sign.) PHOEBE: Yeah. Absolutely. (PHOEBE takes the book from the WOMAN while JASON sits patiently on the side.) FAN (WOMAN): I've been watching you on tv all week. You were huge. PHOEBE: Oh, well, the tv does add ten pounds. FAN (WOMAN): (laughs with embarrassment) Oh, no, no! PHOEBE: Oh, there it is. FAN (WOMAN): I'm so sorry. I didn't mean it like that at all. (PHOEBE finishes signing and offers the book back to the WOMAN.) PHOEBE: Oh, no, I know what you meant. FAN (WOMAN): Thank you. Bye-bye. (Taking her book, the WOMAN leaves.) JASON DEAN: She's right, you know. You could be huge. PHOEBE: I'm taping my last show today. JASON DEAN: It doesn't have to end. I own tv stations all around the world. PHOEBE: Are you offering me the world, Jason Dean? JASON DEAN: Yes. All except Kazakhstan. I don't have stations there. PHOEBE: (laughs) Look, I appreciate you hop in your jet to see me and the roses, all ten dozen of them, and the shows and the dinners and the private concert by the San Francisco Symphony. JASON DEAN: But? PHOEBE: No. No "buts". I like you. I like you a lot, and you don't have to try so hard. JASON DEAN: I know. PHOEBE: You do? JASON DEAN: You're a very easy girl to please, and I love that about you, but have you ever stopped to consider that maybe I enjoy doing these things for you? PHOEBE: No. Actually, that never occurred to me. (JASON glances behind him before leaning close to PHOEBE to whisper confidentially to her.) JASON DEAN: I don't like to talk about it, but you're dating a minor media mogul here, so can I make a suggestion? PHOEBE: Sure. JASON DEAN: Let go. Lose control a little bit. Trust me, and just enjoy the ride. PHOEBE: You mean, let you drive? I don't know. I'm not a very good back - (JASON leans forward and kisses PHOEBE, stopping her words completely. After a moment, he pulls away.) PHOEBE: (murmurs absently) -- seat driver. CUT TO: [INT. MANOR - KITCHEN -- DAY] (PIPER walks over to the oven and opens the door. She pulls out the tray of chocolate chip cookies and sets it aside. WYATT is in his high chair in the kitchen.) (LEO orbs into the room.) PIPER: (to WYATT) Oh, look. Daddy's here. LEO: Um, we need to talk. PIPER: No. You need to orb. (PIPER grabs WYATT'S bag and hands it to LEO.) PIPER: There are diapers in the bag. Here. Wyatt is very excited to spend the afternoon with you. (WYATT sneezes. LEO turns around to croon to WYATT.) LEO: Was that a sneeze? (LEO leans over WYATT'S chair.) LEO: Are you feeling all right, buddy? Daddy'll heal you upright away, and then take care of mommy's hand. PIPER: No, no, no. No magic. Really. He has a common cold, and babies need to develop immunities. LEO: Not when his father is a miracle worker. PIPER: No, really. If I'm gonna lead any kind of a normal life, there will be no healing for any of us. LEO: So you just want him to suffer. PIPER: Oh, don't be so dramatic. If he had a serious illness, I would be the first one to call you, but he doesn't, so in the meantime, just watch him and fret like a normal person. Now, go. LEO: Uh ... well, that's -- I can't take Wyatt today. PIPER: You can't take Wyatt? What do you mean? You asked to take Wyatt. You know, father-son bonding. LEO: Yeah, that was until I found out about this. (LEO holds out the Valkyrie pendant.) LEO: Do you know where Chris got it? PIPER: A swap meet? LEO: He killed for it. The Valkyrie who owned this pendant was murdered. PIPER: (brushes it aside) Leo, this is not cool. I have people coming here in ten minutes. LEO: Chris isn't who he says he is, Piper. I know he's the one who banished me to Valhalla, and this proves it. PIPER: (shakes her head) You know what, Leo? Nothing will ever change with you. You will always find a way to make your job more important than your family. LEO: Taking care of my family is my job, Piper, and right now I need to find out what Chris is up to. (Camera holds on PIPER.) CUT TO: [INT. GITH'S LAIR -- NIGHT] (GITH continues to dab at his bloodied shoulder and mutters to CHRIS who leans against the back cave wall.) GITH: You must think I'm pretty low on the evil-utionary ladder. CHRIS PERRY: That's not true. GITH: A minor horned demon, a lesser slime devil, or some other common fiend with no power. (CHRIS walks around GITH and looks around the cave at the various items on the table.) CHRIS PERRY: I have the greatest respect for your power. GITH: Then don't insult me. Whitelighters don't kill their charges. CHRIS PERRY: Well, I'm not your typical Whitelighter. I came from the future because I needed the power of The Charmed Ones. GITH: To do what? CHRIS PERRY: Not your concern. All you need to know is they're drifting apart. GITH: How do you mean, drifting apart? CHRIS PERRY: Well, they're putting their desires before their duties, and that makes them useless to me. GITH: You said ... desires? CHRIS PERRY: You caught that, huh? That is what you feed off of, right? Though I never quite understood how one could eat a desire. (GITH walks back to the table to tend to his wound.) GITH: Do you know how much energy is contained in an unfulfilled desire? People spend their whole lives wanting something, usually never getting it. I feed off that energy. CHRIS PERRY: Just think how much power The Charmed Ones must pack. GITH: You know their desires. CHRIS PERRY: It's all right here. (He holds out a slip of paper. GITH stares at the paper eagerly. He reaches out for it, but CHRIS pulls it out of his reach.) CHRIS PERRY: With this, no messy vortexes. You can bring them into your world from the comfort of your own cave. (GITH grabs the piece of paper and rushes forward toward his scrying pool. CHRIS smoothly moves back toward the table and covers his hand over the bloodied cloth on the table.) (GITH opens the piece of paper and glances back at CHRIS.) GITH: They'll die, you know. Victims of their own desires. Is that what you want? CHRIS PERRY: I'm counting on it. Why else would I offer to help? (CHRIS tucks the cloth into his pocket. He puts his empty hand back on the table in the same position, but GITH is eagerly reading the slip of paper with The Charmed Ones' desires on it.) CHRIS PERRY: So good luck, and for the sake of both our lives, don't screw this up. (CHRIS orbs out of the cave.) GITH: (laughs) (reading) "A normal life with normal friends and no magic." (GITH folds the piece of paper and tucks it away.) GITH: Ask and ye shall receive. (He holds his hand, palm down, over the scrying pool. The pool swirls and soon clears to show a perfect view of PIPER with WYATT in the Sitting Room.) (Camera pushes inward toward the pool where she watch as she moves around the room, picking up things and putting them away, tidying up before her guests arrive.) PIPER: Okey-dokey. SEGUE TO: [INT. MANOR - SITTING ROOM -- DAY] (She walks over to the play pen putting things away as she goes.) PIPER: These go here. These go here. (WYATT sneezes.) PIPER: Whoa. Was that a sneeze? (A band of gold light and magic passes through them like a wave ripple changing their worlds from the one they live in to the one they desire to live in.) (As soon as the wave passes, PIPER pauses almost as if she's felt the change on some unconscious level. WYATT starts to fuss. The doorbell rings.) PIPER: Ok, I'm gonna put you down here for two seconds. (PIPER puts WYATT down into his playpen.) PIPER: Ok? Hang on. Hang on. Hang on. Hang on. You're good. You're ok. (PIPER heads out of the room to answer the door.) [FOYER - CONTINUOUS] (PIPER opens the door to MARY and ELIZABETH.) MARY: Hi! ELIZABETH: Hi! PIPER: Hi! (MARY and ELIZABETH walk into the house.) ELIZABETH: It's been too long. PIPER: I know. MARY: Ooh, I hope you don't mind. A few friends tagged along. PIPER: Oh, no. Not at all. Elizabeth said you might be bringing a few friends ... (Several women walk through the door past PIPER.) GUEST: Hey. GUEST: Hi. GUEST: Hi, how are you. PIPER: (to GUESTS) Hi. (More women walk through the front door past them.) GUEST: Hello. GUEST: Oh, I can't wait. PIPER: (to MARY) ... or 5 ... GUEST: Hello. PIPER: (to MARY) ... or 8 ... ELIZABETH: (to MARY) Oh, see? I told you! You should have called her. PIPER: Oh, no. No, really. It's--it's fine. You've no idea how long I've been waiting to do this. ELIZABETH: Ok, living room, girls. (ELIZABETH shows the group of women to the living room.) MARY: They're all dying to see my new line of lingerie. PIPER: Oh, you design lingerie? MARY: Mm-hmm. You're gonna love it. PIPER: Oh, sure. Just as long as I don't have try any of it on. MARY: Well, you'd look silly if you did. You don't have what it takes to fill the pouch. PIPER: The pouch? (PIPER starts to close the door. MARY moves to stop her and waves for the others to come inside.) MARY: Mmm. (Before PIPER closes the door, a MAN pushes the door open.) MARY: Meet my models. (A MALE MODEL walks into the house.) PIPER: Oh? Oh, sorry. (Another MALE MODEL walks into the house.) PIPER: Hi. Oh, yeah. Yeah, the pouch. (The last MODEL walks into the house. He's carrying a bag.) MALE MODEL 3: So where can we change? PIPER: Uh, my bedroom's free. MARY: (smiles to the men) Right this way. (She guides them into the house to show them where to go.) MARY: (to the models) Come on. (With a hand at her throat, PIPER backs up and closes the door behind her.) CUT TO: [INT. RETIREMENT HOME -- DAY] (We're back at the retirement home in the middle of the same Magician and magic act.) CHARLEY (THE MAGICIAN): And Abracadabra! (CHARLEY reaches his hand into the black hat ... and searches the bottom for his rabbit.) (PAIGE and MRS. RAWLS smile and wait patiently for CHARLEY to complete the trick.) CHARLEY (THE MAGICIAN): Where's the, uh, the rabbit? MRS. RAWLS (ASSISTANT): The rabbit died last year, dear. (The gold wave of magic passes through the room. After it passes through CHARLEY, he clutches his chest over his heart.) CHARLEY (THE MAGICIAN): Oh. (He slowly collapses to the floor.) CHARLEY (THE MAGICIAN) Oh. Oh! (The elderly people in the audience grow alarmed. The NURSE rushes to the front of the room.) NURSE: No, Charley! PAIGE: Ok, somebody call 911! MRS. RAWLS (ASSISTANT): It's his heart. Charley, can you hear me?! NURSE: Hold on, Mr. Rawls. We're calling an ambulance. MRS. RAWLS (ASSISTANT): We haven't got time for an ambulance. He needs help now. PAIGE: Uh, all right. I can get him there faster, but everybody's gotta clear the room. NURSE: I can't leave his side. MRS. RAWLS (ASSISTANT): Please. He's gonna die. Just use your magic and orb him to the hospital. PAIGE: (startled) H-how do you know? NURSE: I think it's a good idea. You should orb him. PAIGE: You know, too? NURSE: That you're a witch? Everybody knows. (The nurse looks at the elderly audience. Everyone in the audience nods their heads at her. PAIGE stares at them in shock.) MRS. RAWLS (ASSISTANT): Yes, please! We're running out of time! PAIGE: All right. All right. But you have to keep it a secret. (Again, the elderly people in the audience nod their heads.) (PAIGE orbs herself and CHARLEY RAWLS out of the home.) CUT TO: [INT. TV STUDIO -- DAY] (Backstage, PHOEBE sits at her vanity table as the make-up artist applies her makeup. JASON walks up to her.) JASON DEAN: Hey. PHOEBE: I can't believe I'm taping my last show today. This week just flew by. JASON DEAN: Usually what happens when you're having a good time. PHOEBE: Yeah, I have to admit, it has been fun. (The make-up artist puts his things down. PHOEBE smiles at him.) PHOEBE: Thank you, Brett. (BRETT leaves.) JASON DEAN: You know, it doesn't have to end. PHOEBE: Oh, don't start with that again. (The ASSISTANT DIRECTOR walks into the back.) ASSISTANT DIRECTOR: Ms. Halliwell, you're on in thirty seconds. PHOEBE: Ok. (PHOEBE smiles at JASON as she gets to her feet.) JASON DEAN: You said you'd enjoy the ride. PHOEBE: Right. JASON DEAN: So enjoy it. When you step out onto that stage today, don't hold back. I want you to lose yourself in the moment, ok? You might be surprised. PHOEBE: Yeah, but I don't like surprises. (A gold wave of magic passes through PHOEBE. She baubles slightly on her feet, feeling it as it passes. She's quiet for a moment.) (The ASSISTANT DIRECTOR appears backstage again.) ASSISTANT DIRECTOR: Ok, you know the drill. And we're going in 5 ... 4 ... 3 ... 2 ... (PHOEBE walks briskly past JASON and the ASSISTANT DIRECTOR and heads for the stage door. She pushes the door open and walks into the television studio where she's greeted by a live studio audience's cheers and applause.) (She is completely surprised. JASON stands on the side watching PHOEBE, thoroughly enjoying her reaction.) PHOEBE: Uh ...hi. Welcome to the show. (PHOEBE turns around and finds that this show is called "ASK PHOEBE".) PHOEBE: Welcome to MY show. (She turns and glances at JASON who is simply thrilled. PHOEBE turns and looks out at the audience. She smiles.) FADE OUT. (COMMERCIAL SET) FADE IN. [EXT. (ALTERNATE REALM) SIDEWALK OUTSIDE TV STUDIO - ARTIST ENTRACE 6 -- DAY] (PHOEBE and JASON DEAN walk out of the studio and onto the sidewalk as they head toward the car. A couple of steps behind them, a guard follows them.) PHOEBE: That was amazing. JASON DEAN: You were amazing. PHOEBE: To be in front of a live audience like that, and feel all the passion? JASON DEAN: So you liked it? PHOEBE: How did you pull it off so fast? JASON DEAN: I bought off a lot of people. (They stop and PHOEBE sees a crowd of fans standing behind the road block. They're holding signs high above their heads.) PHOEBE: Did you buy them, too? JASON DEAN: No, those belong to you. They've been coming out all week just to get a glimpse of you. (JASON turns around and speaks with the guard standing behind them.) JASON DEAN: Blake, can you stay close? BLAKE: No problem, Mr. Dean. PHOEBE: Who's Blake? JASON DEAN: Your bodyguard. PHOEBE: What? I thought he was a grip! (They reach the crowd. PHOEBE smiles and reaches for the first fan's autograph book.) PHOEBE: Hi. (She signs the book and hands it back. A second fan gives her a small bouquet of flowers.) PHOEBE: Here you go. Thanks. Oh, they're beautiful. Thank you. (PHOEBE slowly makes her way down the fan crowd and signs the next several books.) PHOEBE: Hi. Here you go. PHOEBE: Hi. There you go. PHOEBE: Thanks. FAN (MAN): You--you saved my marriage. My Janey was gonna leave me until I read your column. Thank you so much. PHOEBE: You're welcome. (PHOEBE turns away from the crowd to join JASON.) JASON DEAN: It's like walking with Gandhi. PHOEBE: (waves to the crowd) Thank you, everyone, for coming. JASON DEAN: Let's go. (They head for the limo.) PHOEBE: What is this?! (BLAKE opens the backseat door for them.) PHOEBE: Thank you, Blake. (They get inside the limo.) [INT. LIMO - CONTINUOUS] (JASON climbs into the limo after PHOEBE. He loosens his tie.) PHOEBE: Jason, I appreciate everything you're trying to do for me, but a lot of this doesn't make sense. Like I swear those people weren't here a few hours ago, and the elaborate stage? How did you get them to -- JASON DEAN: Hey. You promised. PHOEBE: I know. Just sit back and enjoy the ride. JASON DEAN: Home, Blake. I got a big surprise for you. PHOEBE: Wait. Bigger than all of this? (The limo starts to move. The crowd moves along with the limo.) MAN: Phoebe! Phoebe! we love you, Phoebe! (PHOEBE raises her hand and waves to the crowd outside.) WOMAN: Phoebe! We love you, Phoebe! (She sees one man carrying a sign: MARRY ME PHOEBE. As the limo leaves, he flips the card over: OR DIE.) (This freaks PHOEBE out a bit.) CUT TO: [INT. MANOR - ATTIC -- DAY] (CHRIS is in the attic using the cloth with the blood on it to make a potion. He works swiftly and efficiently, the Book of Shadows open on the table in front of him. LEO orbs into the room.) LEO: We need to talk. CHRIS PERRY: (doesn't look up) Sorry. Not now. LEO: (steps forward) Oh, yeah. Now. (LEO holds out the Valkyrie's amulet.) LEO: Look familiar. CHRIS PERRY: I don't have time for this. LEO: You had to kill a Valkyrie. Whitelighters don't kill, or did you not read the manual? CHRIS PERRY: But it's all right for an Elder? You have Valkyrie blood on your hands, too. LEO: Fighting to protect the sisters. You went out, hunted a Valkyrie to steal her magic. CHRIS PERRY: Oh, so that makes you the noble one, right? LEO: Face it, Chris, I got you this time. This is enough to get your Whitelighter status stripped and your soul sent back down to earth for recycling. CHRIS PERRY: You do what you have to do. LEO: I already did. I arranged a hearing with the Elders tonight. I expect this will be your last day as a whitelighter. CHRIS PERRY: (thinks about something else and nods) That's ... quite possible. Excuse me. (CHRIS picks up the baster and starts filling the potion bottle with the liquid. LEO finally notices what CHRIS is doing.) LEO: Why are you making a vanquishing potion? CHRIS PERRY: To help the sisters. LEO: Why aren't they making it? CHRIS PERRY: Because they're busy. (LEO closes his eyes and concentrates. CHRIS fills the bottle and caps it.) LEO: I can't sense them. CHRIS PERRY: Don't worry. I'm on it. LEO: You know, Chris, if I can't sense them, it means they're not in this world. CHRIS PERRY: I said I'm on it! (CHRIS shakes his head and moves to leave the attic. LEO stops him.) LEO: Where you going? CHRIS PERRY: To bring them back. Now lay off. LEO: Till I find out what's going on, I'm not gonna let you out of my sight. CHRIS PERRY: You don't' trust me. Fine. I get it, but get this: If I don't show up where I'm supposed to be ... alone ... they'll die. Your call. (After a moment, LEO reluctantly lets CHRIS go. CHRIS orbs out of the attic.) (Alone, LEO looks around the attic and sees the cloth with the demon blood on it. He picks it up and looks at it.) CUT TO: [INT. (ALTERNATE REALM) HOSPITAL - E.R. -- DAY] (In the Emergency Room, MRS. RAWLS stands next to her husband's bed. He's hooked up to a monitor and the steady beeps of the machine indicate that he's been stabilized tho he lies there asleep. PAIGE pushes the curtain aside and walks into the room.) PAIGE: Hey, they said I could come back. Is Charley gonna be ok? MRS. RAWLS: Thanks to you. PAIGE: No. Thanks to the doctors. I was just his, uh, cosmic taxi. MRS. RAWLS: Oh, Paige, you saved his life. PAIGE: Well, it felt nice to help out. I'm just curious. How did you know that I had a, uh ... a power? MRS. RAWLS: (puzzled) A power? (PAIGE nods.) MRS. RAWLS: (louder) You mean your magic? PAIGE: Ok, shh. Let's keep it down, because it's just our secret. MRS. RAWLS: Oh, Paige, don't be shy. Your magic's a godsend. If you hadn't been a witch, I would be a--a--a widow right now. PAIGE: Ok, just don't say the word "witch," 'cause someone might hear you. MRS. RAWLS: So what if they do? This ain't Salem, honey. There's no shame in being a witch today. You should use your magic with pride. CUT TO: [INT. (ALTERNATE REALM) MANOR - LIVING ROOM -- DAY] (Back at the manor, the lingerie party is well underway. The group of women scream and hoot at the dancing male model in his red speedoes, bumping and grinding to the loud, pulsating music. PIPER sits in her seat in the middle of the room, her hand covering her eyes in abject embarrassment. She can't help but smile at the entire situation.) (The first male model leaves the room and the next model wearing a leopard skinned patterned underwear walks in and starts his routine.) PIPER: Oh, yeah. That's great design detail there. MARY: (smiles) Thanks. I tried to use the natural contours of a man's body along with clean, simple lines to convey an image of sensual sophistication. ELIZABETH: (interjects) I just think it's hot. PIPER: Doesn't provide a lot of support, though, now, does it? MARY: That's the point. PIPER: So you guys do this a lot? MARY: You mean stare at half-naked men under a socially accepted pretense? PIPER: Yeah. ELIZABETH: Every chance we get. MARY: Our lives used to be very 'Sex in the City', then we got married, had kids, and it's celibacy in the suburbs. PIPER: I've just missed so much, haven't I? (MARY reaches up and catches the leopard skin underwear that's thrown toward her.) MARY: Ow! I guess you could say that. (The male model continues to dance.) (Over the baby monitor, PIPER hears WYATT crying and screaming.) PIPER: Oh, speaking of families, I think all this noise woke up Wyatt. I'll be right back. (PIPER gets up off her seat and hurries out of the room.) CUT TO: [INT. (ALTERNATE REALM) MANOR - PIPER'S BEDROOM / NURSERY - DAY -- CONTINUOUS] (WYATT is in his crib screaming and crying. PIPER runs into the bedroom and picks him up.) PIPER: (crooning) Hey, bud, you're ok. What's the matter? Come here. Come here. Come here. You're all right. (She touches his skin.) PIPER: Actually, you're burning up a little. Come here. Come here. (She reaches for the baby thermometer on the shelf and takes his temperature.) PIPER: Ok. Look, look, look. Let me see. (The thermometer beeps. PIPER checks it.) PIPER: 102? That's not good. (PIPER looks around the room, then up at the ceiling.) PIPER: Leo! Leo, come on. (getting worried) Wyatt needs you! (PIPER puts the thermometer down and heads out of the bedroom with WYATT. The camera shows the blinking read-out: 102.0 F.) CUT TO: [EXT. VARIOUS - DAY] [INT. (ALTERNATE REALM) LIMO (MOVING) -- BACK SEAT -- DAY] (PHOEBE closes the partition between the driver and the backseat.) PHOEBE: No offense, Blake. (JASON smiles. Once that's done, PHOEBE turns to look at JASON eagerly.) PHOEBE: We're alone. JASON DEAN: I wasn't joking when I said I wanted to give you the world, Phoebe. That live audience wasn't just to impress you. That was a test run for a nationally-syndicated talk show starring you. PHOEBE: (laughs) What?! Are you kidding me? JASON DEAN: I have commitments from my "O" and "O"S. That's twelve major tv markets, and don't worry. Once they see the test run, everybody in the country's gonna wanna 'Ask Phoebe ... Live'. So what do you think? PHOEBE: (quietly, worriedly) I think this is moving very fast. JASON DEAN: Yeah. Isn't it great? (The partition opens.) BLAKE: We're coming to the penthouse. PHOEBE: Wait. The penthouse? I thought you were taking me home. JASON DEAN: That is your home. Well, it's your new home. (JASON looks at PHOEBE who no longer seems eager. In fact, things are appearing mightily suspicious.) [EXT. (ALTERNATE REALM) OUTSIDE PENTHOUSE - DAY -- CONTINUOUS] (The limo pulls up outside building #6625 where a small crowd of fans have gathered. When they see the limo, they rush forward to gather around the limo.) CROWD: Phoebe! CROWD: Oh, my god. Aah! CROWD: There she is! CROWD: Phoebe! Phoebe! (PHOEBE starts to freak.) PHOEBE: Ok, Jason, enough is enough here. I know that this is all coming from a really good place, but you can't just take over my life. I'm not even sure I want to star in my own... (Outside, the crowd continues to press forward.) CROWD: Phoebe! Phoebe! BLAKE: (to JASON) We need to get inside. JASON DEAN: (to BLAKE) Clear a path. PHOEBE: Where did all these people come from? (Outside the car, BLAKE stands outside the back door.) BLAKE: (to fans) Back up. (He opens the door. JASON and PHOEBE get out of the car. The crowd cheers.) (A woman hands her book to PHOEBE to sign.) FAN (WOMAN): Phoebe, I've read every one of your columns. They're on all my walls! PHOEBE: Great. Thank you. (PHOEBE hands the book back to the fan. She turns to JASON.) PHOEBE: Uh, this is too much. JASON DEAN: Isn't it great? PHOEBE: I don't think any of this is real. I think something's wrong. JASON DEAN: What? PHOEBE: I said I think something is wrong! (An angry MAN in the crowd steps forward and starts yelling at PHOEBE.) ANGRY MAN IN CROWD: (accusing) My wife left me because of you! (JASON pulls PHOEBE away from the man. They continue forward toward the building. The ANGRY MAN stares at their backs.) (Someone else puts a magazine out in front of her. She glances at it.) PHOEBE: Yeah, I never posed for that. (to JASON) This isn't my world! (The ANGRY MAN manages to pushes his way closer to PHOEBE again.) ANGRY MAN IN CROWD: Do you know how much pain you caused me?! PHOEBE: (to JASON) This isn't even my fantasy. JASON DEAN: Wait till you see the penthouse I bought you. It's got the best bay views in the city. (PHOEBE moves in front of JASON and blocks his path.) PHOEBE: No, no, no. We can't go in there. I know this isn't gonna make any sense to you, but I don't think any of this is real. I think we're in some kind of alternate reality. JASON DEAN: What are you talking crazy for, Phoebe? This is real. It's me. I'm real. (Behind them, BLAKE looks out at the crowd. He sees a gun pointed high in the air.) BLAKE: Gun! (The people in the crowd around them starts to scream and disburse. Standing at the back is the same ANGRY MAN. This time, he's holding a gun. He levels it directly at PHOEBE.) (JASON turns around. PHOEBE gasps when she sees the gun.) ANGRY MAN IN CROWD: It's time for you to feel pain! (Everything moves in slow motion. JASON turns to push PHOEBE out of the way. The man fires the gun.) (PHOEBE and JASON fall to the road.) (The ANGRY MAN looks startled, then turns and runs.) JASON DEAN: (stiffly) Better get you inside. PHOEBE: What? (She moves her hand away from the inside of JASON'S jacket and sees the blood on her hands.) CUT TO: [INT. GITH'S LAIR -- NIGHT] [SCRYING POOL] (BLAKE rushes forward to help them.) PHOEBE: Oh! Ohh. Uhh. (Camera moves around the pool and we see varying view of the three worlds.) (In PHOEBE'S world, BLAKE helps JASON up. In PAIGE'S world, PAIGE talks with MRS. RAWLS at the hospital. In PIPER'S world, PIPER walks into the attic with WYATT.) (GITH stares at the pool with confusion.) GITH: I don't understand. (CHRIS orbs into the cave.) CHRIS PERRY: Something wrong? GITH: The boyfriend took the bullet. It was meant for the witch. CHRIS PERRY: You tried to kill one of them already? GITH: I create worlds. I don't control them. They work in their own way, in their own time. But this is the first time a victim's ever escaped a direct attempt on their life. CHRIS PERRY: Yeah, well, pretty good, aren't they? (GITH looks at CHRIS, then turns around to walk toward the back of the room.) GITH: It's ok. Their desires will kill them eventually. (CHRIS turns back and removes the vanquishing potion from his pocket. GITH reaches the back of the room. Their backs are toward each other.) GITH: After all, that is what you desire, isn't it? (CHRIS glances back at GITH.) (GITH lifts his hand and a Darklighter's crossbow materializes.) CHRIS PERRY: Actually ... (Things happen fast. CHRIS pulls back to throw the potion, but GITH is already turning, the crossbow in his hands. GITH fires and hits CHRIS in the stomach.) CHRIS PERRY: Ohh! (CHRIS clutches the arrow and drops the vial.) CHRIS PERRY: Uhh! (CHRIS falls to the floor.) GITH: (smirking) I could sense your desire from the beginning. You never wanted to kill your charges -- just teach them a lesson. (He looks down at CHRIS, writhing in pain on the floor.) GITH: That's right ... Darklighter arrow. (With his foot, GITH stomps on the vial with the vanquishing potion in it. He smashes it to bits.) GITH: Poison shouldn't take long. But with luck, you may just live long enough to watch The Charmed Ones learn their lesson after all. (CHRIS coughs, unable to reply to anything.) FADE OUT. (COMMERCIAL SET) FADE IN. [EXT. MANOR (STOCK) - DAY] (Establish.) [INT. (ALTERNATE REALM) MANOR - ATTIC -- DAY] (With WYATT in her arms, PIPER walks into the attic and beelines it to the Book of Shadows.) PIPER: Okay, mama's gonna take care of everything right now. Yes. (PIPER reaches the Book of Shadows and opens it only to find that all the pages are blank.) PIPER: (alarmed) What is this? (She flips through the pages, not believing what she's seeing. Not now.) PIPER: No, no, no, no, no. This can't be happening. (yells) Leo! Chris! Anybody! (MARY and ELIZABETH walk into the attic and head toward PIPER.) MARY: There you are. Is everything okay? PIPER: No. Wyatt has a 102 temperature, and I think it's getting worse. (shouts) Leo, come on! Your son needs you! (MARY and ELIZABETH eye PIPER warily.) ELIZABETH: Honey, Leo's not here. You two split up, remember? (PIPER stares at them and clutches WYATT closer to her.) PIPER: Uh ... ELIZABETH: 102? Piper, that boy needs a doctor. Let me drive you. PIPER: No, no. I've got it. It's ok. (PIPER leaves them and walks out of the attic. MARY and ELIZABETH share a concerned look.) CUT TO: [EXT. VARIOUS SAN FRANCISCO CITY (STOCK) - DAY] [EXT. HOSPITAL (STOCK) - DAY] [INT. (ALTERNATE REALM) HOSPITAL -- DAY] (PAIGE walks outside the emergency room hallway. A WOMAN lying on a gurney sees PAIGE and grabs her arm to stop her. The woman has burns on her face.) WOMAN ON GURNEY: I heard that woman say you're a witch. PAIGE: Oh, that. She was just being silly. WOMAN ON GURNEY: You have to help my daughter. PAIGE: (mutters to herself) Ok, I've landed in the twilight zone and - (PAIGE turns to leave, but the woman holds onto her tightly.) WOMAN ON GURNEY: (begs) Please. PAIGE: Ok ... that hurts. But I need to wake up now. WOMAN ON GURNEY: Demons attacked us. I hid Susie, but they're gonna find her. You're a witch. You can save her. PAIGE: Ok, this can't be happening. (loudly to the ceiling) Chris, I need some help here! WOMAN ON GURNEY: (crying) Please. She's just a little girl. PAIGE: (sighs) Ok. It's gonna be ok. Uh ... tell me where you left her. CUT TO: [EXT. SAN FRANCISCO HIGHWAY (STOCK) -- [EXT. (ALTERNATE REALM) ALLEYWAY - DAY -- CONTINUOUS] (PAIGE orbs into the alley. She looks around and assesses the situation. A MAN runs through the alley. He's being chased by a DEMON. The DEMON powers up a fireball and hurls it toward the MAN.) (PAIGE calls for the fireball. ) PAIGE: Fireball! (As it orbs to her, she pushes it toward the DEMON, vanquishing him.) (She looks around, then hurries into the building nearby.) [INT. (ALTERNATE REALM) ABANDONED BUILDING - DAY - CONTINUOUS] (PAIGE walks into the building and down the stairs. She looks around.) DEMON: (o.s.) Where are you? (Startled, PAIGE gasps and turns to find a DEMON looking for the little girl. He leans over a stack of junk when he hears PAIGE gasp. He turns around and sees her. He powers up a fireball.) (PAIGE glances to the side and calls for the pipe.) PAIGE: Pipe! (She sends the orbed pipe straight into the DEMON. It pierces him in the chest and starts to burn. The DEMON loses his fireball as he stands there stunned. He looks up at PAIGE as the fire spreads and consumes him. He screams and disappears in a ball of flame and smoke.) (Relieved, PAIGE calls out to SUSIE.) PAIGE: Susie? Susie, it's ok. You can come out now. (A little girl, hiding behind the piles of junk peers out from the corner of the basement.) PAIGE: It's ok. Your mom sent me. (SUSIE walks out and heads slowly toward PAIGE.) PAIGE: (encouraging) That's it. It's all right. It's ok. Ok. (PAIGE hugs SUSIE.) PAIGE: Let's get you out of here. (They turn and head toward the stairs.) CUT TO: [EXT. (ALTERNATE REALM) ALLEYWAY - DAY -- CONTINUOUS] (PAIGE and SUSIE walk out of the building. People hiding behind the piles of junk in the alleyway come out from their hiding places.) (When they see PAIGE, they applaud and cheer loudly.) PEOPLE: Whoo! PAIGE: (stunned) This can't be real. (Two DEMONS materialize in front of PAIGE. One of them immediately hurls a fireball at her, missing her and SUSIE.) PAIGE: Ok, it's real. (to SUSIE) Go wait in there. (PAIGE opens the door to the abandoned building again and pushes SUSIE inside to safety while she handles the two DEMONS.) (The blonde-haired DEMON powers up a fireball and steps forward toward PAIGE. PAIGE orbs out.) DEMON: Take her! (They look around for her. PAIGE re-orbs between the two DEMONS.) PAIGE: Looking for me? (Both DEMONS power up their own fireballs and throws it at PAIGE. PAIGE orbs out and they completely miss her, hitting the other DEMON standing on the other side of her. Each DEMON vanquishes the other.) (PAIGE re-orbs into the alleyway.) PAIGE: (shouts) Anyone else? WOMAN: (o.s.) Look out! (A fireball is thrown from nowhere toward PAIGE. She jumps out of the way and takes cover behind a dumpster. The fireball hits the back of the building behind her.) (PAIGE ponders the entire situation.) PAIGE: What the hell is going on? FLASH TO: [EXT. (ALTERNATE REALM) PENTHOUSE -- DAY] (Injured, JASON is propped up against a wall in a quiet spot near the front of the penthouse. PHOEBE sits and waits next to him.) PHOEBE: Ok, baby. We're gonna get you out of this. (shouts) Leo! JASON DEAN: Who you calling? PHOEBE: Uh, my brother-in-law. He's a healer. JASON DEAN: No offense, babe, but I don't think he can hear you. Isn't Blake calling 9-1-1? PHOEBE: Yeah, he is. I know this isn't gonna make a lot of sense to you, but I don't think this world is real, you know? I don't know if there are paramedics here. JASON DEAN: This world isn't real? PHOEBE: Yeah. If I had to guess ... I would say it -- it's a world of desire, but it's not my desire. It's your desire. I can feel how much you want all of this for me. JASON DEAN: It's true, Phoebe. I--I want everything for you, including sanity. So if I die, promise me you'll see a doctor. (PHOEBE chuckles.) CUT TO: [INT. GITH'S LAIR -- NIGHT] (GITH stands over the scrying pool and watches PHOEBE and JASON.) PHOEBE: (quietly) You're not gonna die. (The view into PHOEBE'S world reduces to one-third the area of the scrying pool. Two other views into PAIGE'S world and PIPER'S world appears.) PHOEBE: (quietly) We're gonna get you out of here. (GITH straightens from the scrying pool.) GITH: An empath! (He looks at CHRIS.) You didn't tell me the middle sister was an empath. CHRIS PERRY: (weakly) Sorry. GITH: She must have been feeling his desire when I created her world. It's no matter. My worlds always kill their victims. You know why? Because desires are empty. They lack foundation. This world will fall, too. It's only a matter of time. (GITH leans forward and watches what's going on in PHOEBE'S world.) [EXT. (ALTERNATE REALM) PENTHOUSE -- DAY] (JASON turns to PHOEBE.) JASON DEAN: I'm--I'm -- I'm getting thirsty. PHOEBE: Ok. I'll try to see if I can find something. (PHOEBE gets to her feet.) (In the cave, CHRIS weakly stretches out his arm and orbs PHOEBE from her world into the world next to hers in the scrying pool -- PAIGE'S world.) (PHOEBE magically moves from her world and reappears in the alleyway in PAIGE'S world.) (GITH watches and gets angry.) GITH: (shouts) No! (He turns and kicks CHRIS in the head for interfering.) CHRIS PERRY: Uhh! (CHRIS is knocked unconscious. GITH turns back to the scrying pool to watch what happens with this change of events.) POOL RIPPLE TO: [EXT. (ALTERNATE REALM) ALLEYWAY - DAY -- CONTINUOUS] (PHOEBE looks around, puzzled as to where she is and how she got there.) PHOEBE: Jason? (In front of her, two DEMONS quickly approach. One of them has a fireball powered up in his hand and throws it at her.) (A pair of hands grab PHOEBE by her shoulders and pulls her down, out of the fireball's path.) PHOEBE: Whoo! (The fireball hits the wall instead.) (PHOEBE looks at PAIGE.) PHOEBE: Thanks. (They both peer out from around the dumpster they're hiding behind.) PAIGE: Fireball! (PAIGE pulls PHOEBE back behind the dumpster just as a fireball hits the edge, protecting them from the blast.) DEMON: Be careful. Let's go for position. (The DEMON continues to hit fireballs at the dumpster.) PAIGE: (to PHOEBE) Welcome to my world. PHOEBE: Wait, you have a world, too? PAIGE: Yeah, all magical, all the time. Just what I wanted. PHOEBE: So you figure it out? PAIGE: Well, yeah, if you mean the whole vortex of deadly desires thing. How'd you escape? PHOEBE: I have no idea. It just sort of happened. But I have to go back there because Jason was shot, and I just left him there. PAIGE: Oh, no. PHOEBE: Paige, I gotta get back there. PAIGE: Yeah, we definitely need to get out of here, but I think we're gonna need Piper to do that. (The two DEMONS continue to stride toward the dumpster, now both of them throw fireballs consistently at the dumpster.) CUT TO: [SCRYING POOL] (Through the scrying pool, GITH watches PAIGE and PHOEBE hide behind the dumpster.) CUT TO: [EXT. (ALTERNATE REALM) ALLEYWAY - DAY -- CONTINUOUS] (One DEMON motions for the other to approach the dumpster from the other angle. They slowly approach the dumpster, fully expecting to find PAIGE and PHOEBE there. Just as he gets close enough, the first DEMON rushes forward, arm holding the fireball raised and ready to throw it.) (When he gets close enough to look behind the dumpster, he finds there's no one there.) (The fireball goes out and he turns to motion to the other DEMON to continue looking. The first DEMON opens the dumpster lid and peers inside. He shifts the bags around and doesn't find anyone in there.) (He closes the lid and kicks the side of the dumpster in frustration.) (The two DEMONS search the alleyway. Behind them, we see white orblights re- materialize out of thin air and fall down into the dumpster they just abandoned.) [INT. DUMPSTER] (PHOEBE pushes a large garbage bag aside. On her head, she wears a large, single leaf of lettuce. PAIGE pushes the large garbage bag aside. She reaches up and picks the lettuce leaf off of the top of PHOEBE'S head. She shows it to PHOEBE and tosses it aside. PHOEBE smiles.) CUT TO: [INT. GITH'S LAIR - NIGHT] (GITH leans forward toward the scrying pool as he watches PIPER'S world.) CUT TO: [EXT.

(Camera pulls back and we see WYATT through the scrying pool.) [INT. GITH'S LAIR -- NIGHT] (There are now two views in the scrying pool. One of WYATT in PIPER'S car and the other of the DEMONS walking around the alleyway.) (Camera pulls back and we see GITH standing above the pool watching both views intently.) (He straightens and the camera focuses in on the view of PAIGE and PHOEBE in the dumpster.) PAIGE: Ok, I think they're gone. PHOEBE: (thinking) How are we going to find Piper? GLOW TO: [INT. (ALTERNATE REALM) DUMPSTER - DAY -- CONTINUOUS] (PHOEBE turns to look at PAIGE.) PAIGE: I don't know. Maybe try feeling her? The demon created these worlds by using our emotions, right? I don't know, maybe use him as a conduit to tap into her feelings. PHOEBE: Ok, it's worth a shot. (PHOEBE is quiet for a moment.) PAIGE: You getting anything? PHOEBE: (starting to sneeze) Oh, I'm smelling something. Ah-choo! [EXT. (ALTERNATE REALM) ALLEYWAY - DAY -- CONTINUOUS] (The two DEMONS walking away from the dumpster through the alleyway, both hear PHOEBE'S sneeze. They slowly turn around to look at the dumpster.)

PAIGE: (motions with her hands) Ok, try again. PHOEBE: Ok. (Cut back to: Outside in the alley, two more DEMONS join the group.) DEMON: Let's just mess with them for a while. Go that way, man. DEMON: That's right. DEMON: Spread out. (Now that they know where they are, then DEMONS start throwing fireballs at the dumpster.) (Inside the dumpster, it shakes and rocks with every hit. Still, PHOEBE continues to try to concentrate on finding PIPER.) PAIGE: Uhh ... you ok? PHOEBE: I feel her. Uh ... she's really scared, and she needs our help. (The DEMONS continue to throw fireballs at the dumpster.) PAIGE: These worlds were fueled by our desires, right? Well, our desire is to find her. PHOEBE: Ok, so maybe our combined desires can actually bring us to her, right? PAIGE: Yeah. (The dumpster continues shake and rock with every hit.) PHOEBE: Uh, let's try to -- focus, focus, focus, focus here. (The DEMONS close in on the dumpster.) CUT TO: [INT. GITH'S LAIR -- NIGHT] (GITH watches the view of both PAIGE'S world and PIPER'S world. He sighs and turns to look at CHRIS.) GITH: You've ruined everything! Now they'll find the oldest sister and come for me. (smirks) Unless I get to her first. (He takes out an athame from his jacket pocket and holds it in his hand. He chuckles and disappears in a blur, his essence traveling toward the scrying pool and straight into PIPER'S world.) CUT TO: [EXT. (ALTERNATE REALM) STREET - DAY -- CONTINUOUS] (GITH materializes on the sidewalk. He looks and sees the truck that hit PIPER'S SUV on fire. GITH slowly walks toward the car accident.) (PIPER peers through her car window. She's standing outside her car, WYATT in her arms. She sees GITH approaching her.) (She moves around her car and walks toward him. They both walk toward each other, then stop a fair distance away.) (They face each other.) PIPER: You're not demon enough to kill me. (GITH holds up the athame and fingers the edge lightly. He smiles at PIPER, relishing whatever feelings he's picking up from her.) GITH: Ah, the sweetest desire of them all. Desire to survive. (PIPER glares at GITH as he gets a better grip on the athame and walks toward her.) (Just as he takes a couple of steps, a wave of magic appears near him.) (PAIGE and PHOEBE appear in PIPER'S world. They're holding onto each other's hands and are kneeling as if they're still in the dumpster only they're kneeling in the middle of the street.) (PHOEBE swings her leg out and knocks GITH off of his feet and onto his back. She jumps up to her feet and is positioned, ready to strike again at him. PAIGE jumps to the side and rushes over to PIPER.) PAIGE: You ok? (PIPER shifts WYATT in her arms.) PIPER: Yeah. It's about time you guys showed up. (PAIGE holds out her hand to orb the athame away from GITH.) PAIGE: Athame! (Nothing happens.) PIPER: Oh, yeah. Sorry, no magic here. (PAIGE puts her hand down.) (Still holding the athame, GITH gets to his feet. PHOEBE is ready for him. He swings the athame down toward her, but she easily grabs his arm and pushes him toward the car. He hits the side of the car with a thud.) (He turns around and looks at PHOEBE.) PHOEBE: How does that shoulder feel? (GITH raises the athame again. PHOEBE swings around and kicks GITH right in his wounded shoulder. He falls backward onto the ground, clutching his injured shoulder in pain.) GITH: Ahh! (PHOEBE watches GITH for a moment, then notices that PIPER'S car is leaking gasoline from the back.) PHOEBE: (motions to PIPER and PAIGE) Ohh! Come on. We gotta get out of here! Gotta get out of here. (PHOEBE, PAIGE and PIPER carrying WYATT all run away from the car accident. Misinterpreting why they're running, GITH gets to his feet, standing in a gasoline soaked road. He stares at their retreating backs and spreads his arms out wide.) GITH: There's nowhere to run! You're in my world! (Finally, GITH looks down on the road and notices the gasoline. He turns and notices the burning truck behind him. He no sooner turns back when the gasoline on the road catches fire and runs from the truck over to PIPER'S abandoned SUV.) (It explodes, consuming GITH in a storm of fire and smoke. He screams and is vanquished in the explosion.) (As GITH is destroyed, so is his world. The wall of fire from the explosion spreads out, but before it hits the girls, they disappear out of this world in a spray of white light.) CUT TO: [INT. GITH'S LAIR -- NIGHT] (The smoke from the essence of the girls rise up and out of the scrying pool and rematerializes them inside GITH'S cave.) (They look around at their surroundings.) PAIGE: Where are we? PHOEBE: Who cares? Where's Jason? PIPER: Jason? PHOEBE: Yeah, he was in my world, and he should have come out when we got the demon, right? PAIGE: You sure it was really Jason? PHOEBE: I don't know. What do you mean? PAIGE: I mean, in my world, there's all these people that I knew from the old folks' home. Maybe your Jason is just a creation of your world. (WYATT starts to fuss.) PHOEBE: God, I hope so. PIPER: Wyatt needs help. (They turn around and notice CHRIS on the ground in the back of the cave. PAIGE and PHOEBE rush over to check on him.) PAIGE: Oh. Oh, my god, so does he. (They reach CHRIS and turn him over.) PAIGE: He's still breathing. PIPER: Leo! (LEO orbs into the cave.) LEO: You're back. Where were you? (PIPER giggles WYATT.) PIPER: Heal now, ask later. (LEO steps forward and holds out his hands toward WYATT. His hands glow gold as he heals his son.) (As soon as he's done, he turns and heals CHRIS.) CUT TO: [EXT. VARIOUS SAN FRANCISCO CITY (STOCK) - SUNSET] [EXT. MANOR - NIGHT] (Establish.) [INT. MANOR - PIPER'S BEDROOM / NURSERY -- NIGHT] (PIPER gently tucks WYATT in his crib. LEO stands next to her looking down on WYATT while caressing the top of his son's head.) PIPER: (whispering) Good job. You're good. (LEO straightens, but his eyes are still on WYATT.) LEO: His fever's down. He should sleep pretty well tonight. PIPER: Yeah, he had quite a day. (WYATT coos; PIPER responds back to him.) PIPER: (to WYATT) Ok. You're ok. (Both PIPER and LEO turn to leave the nursery.) LEO: Well, I'm glad you made it out of that other world all right. PIPER: Yeah, and you have Chris to thank for that. LEO: Chris. Yeah, well, he should have taken me with him to that cave or at least told me where my family was. PIPER: Leo, give him a break. He earned it today. (LEO closes his eyes and sighs.) LEO: So what about you? I heard your ... social life was interrupted again. PIPER: Yeah. But, you know, there's always tomorrow. LEO: You never give up, do you? PIPER: No, not a chance. I firmly believe there will be one day without demons, magic, or pocket realms. LEO: Good night, Piper. (LEO turns to leave the bedroom; PIPER stops him.) PIPER: Hey, um, before you go, could you do me a favor? (LEO turns back and looks at PIPER. She takes off the bandage on her hand. LEO smiles.) LEO: You want me to heal your hand. I thought you wanted a normal day. PIPER: Yeah, I did ... and apparently that's not gonna be today. (LEO smiles. PIPER holds out her hand open for him. LEO places his hand above hers and gladly heals the burn on the palm of her hand.) (They look at each other.) (CHRIS appears in the doorway and knocks lightly on the door frame.) CHRIS PERRY: Hey. PIPER: Hey, how are you feeling? CHRIS PERRY: (nods) Better, thanks. (CHRIS walks intotthe room as LEO finishes healing PIPER'S hand.) CHRIS PERRY: So it's almost time for my hearing with the Elders. I thought I'd give you the pleasure of taking me in personally. LEO: Yeah, well, maybe I'll, uh ... just give you this instead. (LEO takes out the Valkyrie amulet and gives it to CHRIS.) CHRIS PERRY: I don't understand. (PIPER smiles, pleased.) LEO: Neither do I. Just take it before I change my mind. (LEO gives it to CHRIS and leaves the room.) PIPER: Thanks for trying to warn us about the demon. We should have listened to you in the first place. CHRIS PERRY: Well, as long as you've learned something at the end of the day, that's all that matters. Right? PIPER: Right. CUT TO: [EXT. OFFICE BUILDING (STOCK) - NIGHT] [INT. THE BAY MIRROR - JASON'S OFFICE -- NIGHT] (PHOEBE knocks on the office door. JASON opens the door for PHOEBE.) (She takes one look at him, her face betraying the relief at seeing him well and alive.) JASON DEAN: Hey, I got your message. You sounded so -- (PHOEBE rushes to him and wraps her arms around him. She hold him tightly, her hands checking his back.) JASON DEAN: You all right? PHOEBE: I just needed to see you. JASON DEAN: And feel my back. (PHOEBE takes a step back and lets him go. She smiles at him.) PHOEBE: You're ok. JASON DEAN: My doctor will be pleased. (JASON turns around and walks back to his desk.) JASON DEAN: Listen, now that I have you here, I have a surprise for you. PHOEBE: Uh-oh. (PHOEBE steps forward as JASON sits down in his chair.) JASON DEAN: No, no, no. This is good. The station manager's a friend of mine, and we got to talking about you. Now, Phoebe -- PHOEBE: (interrupts) That's not what I want. JASON DEAN: You don't know what I'm gonna say. PHOEBE: Yeah, I think I do ... (PHOEBE walks forward and settles herself on JASON'S lap, her arms around his shoulders.) PHOEBE: ... and I appreciate the gesture, but I have everything I want right here. JASON DEAN: You do? PHOEBE: Yeah, I do. You've got me, Jason Dean. I'm yours. So no more wooing. JASON DEAN: Ok, no more wooing. (He teasingly reaches for the phone.) JASON DEAN: I guess I'll cancel our helicopter to Carmel for dinner. (PHOEBE reaches out to stop him from picking up the phone.) PHOEBE: No, no, no! Maybe a little bit more wooing. (They turn toward each other and kiss.)
