MEL: Well, hello,

Mr. Necrolighter.

Jordan told us you, like, entered

some dead dude's consciousness?

Ladies...

No, no, no, no. Don't "ladies" us.

We need you to explain

why you gave up your Whitelighter powers.

I recognize this is a big change,

and I will explain, but I don't have time right now.

Hey, Mel,

remember what Harry did when we tried to avoid him

the first time we met?

I love a good callback.

Whoa.

(straining)

I really need you to untie me.

Or what? You'll orb away? Yes.

That would be a super useful power right now.

Look, I know what I've given up,

but you have to understand what I've gained.

I can move back and forth between this world and the Veil.

The world of the dead. I've been practicing.

MAGGIE: Wait.

Have you been digging up dead bodies

like some Mr. Freaky Dr. Frankenstein guy?

I need to find Macy... if she's there.

I need to let her know

we haven't forgotten her.

No one's forgotten her, Harry,

not ever.

We all wish

we could see her again,

but we need you here, Harry.

We've got to figure out how to deal with the Unseen,

a whole movement that just hates us.

And since the Tallyman

decided to blow himself up

instead of letting us know what his endgame was,

this is all we have left of that evil little whackadoo.

SUNNY: When the Pink Moon

reaches its zenith, you'll be reborn,

and the world will finally be made right again.

(deep growling)

(gasps)

(panting)

That... that bartender,

from the Blue Camellia...

Sunny?

I think she's trying to finish something the Tallyman started.

(gasps softly)

And whatever's coming is big.

Very, very big.

♪ ♪

She said, "You'll be reborn."

Is that the Tallyman?

I don't think so.

This thing, it was...

huge and scary. I don't even know what it was.

You said she mentioned the Pink Moon.

Historically, it's associated with rebirth magic.

MEL: It's full tonight. It reaches its apex

in 17 hours.

You saw nothing else

that helps identify where this was happening?

Just ruins. A cauldron.

That's it.

Who was that?

MEL: After the Tallyman

left his little present on our porch,

I installed a camera.

(doorbell rings over video)

MEL: Any clue?

No. (sighs) Great.

Just what we need.

(sighs)

MAGGIE: You okay?

Just, you know, brainwashed haters

who blame us for everything,

NecroHarry, and now some sort of

epic resurrection ritual.

Will we? Because I am starting to feel like

I am letting the magical world and the real world down.

Well, I'll hang with Harry.

I think he could really use a friend,

and it'd be good for me to get out of my own head,

help someone else for a change.

And I will do a deep dive on Pink Moon rituals,

see what I can find.

(knock on door)

First things first.

New baton? New bo staff.

We all got to up our game, right?

Hello there.

Does Michaela Danso live here?

And you would be?

Evelyn. I am her mummy.

DEV: Are you free for breakfast?

Is that really what you're thinking about right now?

Well, the only thing that might improve this moment

is the future possibility of good eats,

and I know a lovely bakery in Istanbul.

Yeah, I don't, I don't really think

we're a breakfast in Istanbul couple.

Brazil?

Tokyo? I guess we can

pop into the local coffee shop for a scone.

Un, no, no. No scones.

Not here. Not anywhere.

(sighs)

So, what? I'm just gonna be the "you up" guy?

Dev.

As a practitioner of radical honesty,

I think we can both agree that last night...

And this morning, and this morning again.

And those times were

our first and last, no?

(knock on door)

I'm kind of in the middle of something.

MAGGIE: Well, is it something you'd want your mother to see?

KAELA: My mother is here?

And so is Hot Singer Guy.

KAELA: Yeah. The last time we talked,

I asked her to send me the blanket

my bio-parents left me in for that provenance spell.

Well, I think she might be here to hand-deliver it.

(sighs) This is a disaster.

I thought you guys were tight.

Yeah, we are. Super tight, but my mum is, like,

fairly progressive as far as Ghanaians go,

but one thing she will not understand at all is witchcraft.

It's a huge no-no.

(sighs) I'm sorry.

(sighs) It's okay.

Just, um,

just promise me you'll cover for me.

Okay? Mm...

I got a vision.

Do you remember Sunny?

MAGGIE: We think she might be trying to finish something

that the Tallyman put into motion before he died.

MEL: And it's happening in...

oh, 16 hours and 43 minutes.

Okay, cool, so you're abandoning me.

New fam, how am I supposed to explain any of this?

DEV: Your boyfriend?

15 minutes ago, we were a one-night stand.

Now you want me to stay and meet your mother?

Fake meet, but yes.

Question:

Are we also pretending

that this is how you usually dress?

Look, I'm just... (sighs) I'm just gonna tell my mum

that I moved across the country for a boy.

No, no, no, no.

A handsome, charming boyfriend with a voice like Harry Styles

and the sexual draw of George Clooney.

(laughs) Mm... Please don't make me regret this.

And what do I get for my troubles?

Well, I can literally manifest you anything you want, so...

Okay. I would like you to manifest a real date.

Dinner,

dancing, dessert,

romance.

No romance. No dancing. No dessert.

Yes romance, yes dancing, and as for dessert...

...we will look at the menu

and decide, depending on options.

Okay, let's go.

(claps)

(indistinct conversation)

GIRL: So excited for our trip.

RUBY: Just one second.

Oh, uh, hey.

Mel.

What's happening?

So, last week,

we found out that city council is saying,

"SafeSpace isn't zoned for residential use."

They're kicking the teens out.

You're kidding me.

No.

But there's been a recall in our district,

and, uh, I'm gonna run.

Really?

We're having a meeting tonight, and Swan-- she says hi--

thought, given your past advocacy,

you'd be perf

for my organizing committee.

Oh, I... I would love to, but I...

I just...

Yeah.

Plus Swanby.

Oh, uh, yeah, yeah,

the teens were calling us Rubiwan,

which sounded really Jedi, so... (chuckles)

I get how awkward

this might be.

it's-it's not about that. (chuckles)

Just forget I ever said anything. (chuckles)

Swanby? Really?

Oh. Hey, Mel. Uh, sorry.

I hope I'm not out of bounds here.

I just needed to do some research.

Join the club. What's your subject?

Um...

(breathing heavily)

Now, you've got to swear not to tell my girls.

Nothing.

You're researching nothing?

It's just...

I met this creature

who I need to figure out how to heal.

Well, good thing you have healing powers.

(chuckles) Yeah, well, this creature is in stable condition,

but its illness keeps coming back.

Hey, have you seen a text on rebirth rituals?

Uh... I...

Um... That one.

Wait, why are you studying up

on resurrections?

but my friend had a lot of items,

one of which was this stone bowl,

which it was dealing with

just before its symptoms began.

Anyway, the bowl is related to the Pink Moon,

so I was just...

The Pink Moon?

Y-Yeah.

That's literally what I just came here to research.

Whoa.

between the resurrection tonight

and what's happening with this...

Furry-ear guy.

The bowl, where is it?

Can you take me to it?

Right now. Come on.

Yeah.

This has to be the place.

Family-run farm in Nova Scotia.

The logo was on the back of the Tallyman's pocket watch.

(sighs) Let's see what this coward left behind.

♪ ♪

Booby traps.

Move carefully.

Har, what makes you think Macy's even in the Veil?

I mean, we saw her go into the tree.

Yeah, but did she stay there?

The Veil is for souls with unfinished business.

It's possible her soul traveled, and I...

I just need a proper goodbye.

And after that?

It's not like you can bring her back.

If there was a way, the Guardian would've said something.

No, unless not even she knows.

I mean, we're here because there's

some sort of resurrection.

You know, look at me.

I was dead once.

And I'm all for hope, but at some point,

you have to move forward.

You don't understand.

You were sisters. I know what that means,

but I...

I fell in love with her, Maggie.

TALLYMAN (over video): You believed the Charmed Ones

were your...

saviors, your protectors,

but you were wrong.

(bo staff clicks)

of their mistakes, guess who pays the price.

You do.

You do.

Aren't you tired of those three Chosen Ones

No sudden moves.

Yes. It happened so fast.

Feels like we met... just yesterday.

Mm-mm.

Your father and I had no idea you had an...

...anything,

Um, yeah, it's...

It's-it's crazy, isn't it?

Dev, why don't you tell Mom a little bit about yourself?

Oh, of course.

Uh, Mom, if I may,

I am a singer.

EVELYN: Ah.

Singer? Mm-hmm.

Like Koo Nimo?

The first Ghanaian artist ever to be recorded on CD?

Come on.

You underestimated your boo.

She often does.

But I love her so... much.

Hmm. So much.

Well, I'd love to hear you sing.

KAELA: Oh, no. There'll be no singing.

Um, because... that's because, um,

Dev is actually dealing

with some throat issues at the moment. Yeah.

KAELA: So, it's preventing him

from producing his magical tones.

Well, that's disappointing.

But I'm impressed by this young man and understand

why you would be drawn to Seattle to be with him.

Oh, and I'm impressed by your mother

and now can see where my lady

gets her beauty and her charm. Ugh.

(Evelyn chuckles) (sneezes)

Sorry. (sneezes) Sorry.

Oh, not a problem.

Let me make some tea,

and we'll have breakfast together.

Great.

(clears throat) Seems like that went really well.

Which means something is very wrong.

MAGGIE: Who is he?

HARRY: No idea.

But I can find out.

What? No.

You're not using this as an opportunity

Tell me your brother's plan.

Like I know.

Did you miss the part where Quentin murdered me?

My brother was the weak link

in a proud family of gremlins.

I tried to help him, show him the way,

and his thank-you was a knife in my side.

And then he pickled me and took on the persona

of a nursery rhyme so people would think

he was something more than pathetic, sad and weak.

The powerless, like my brother,

they're desperate, and they will do anything

so they don't feel like they're at the bottom of the heap.

You think Quentin was desperate enough

to raise something powerful from the dead?

Maybe it was the other voice

rattling around in my dead head.

What other voice?

Something spoke to Quentin through me.

Ancient, cursed-- hijacked my body

to make Quentin think it was me.

It wants to rise.

And you have no idea what it is?

But you're not the only one asking questions about it.

What do you mean?

A woman came through here.

The others were whispering.

She's a Charmed One.

Tell me where she went.

I don't understand the issue.

Your mom seemed to love me. Yeah.

Yeah, it's-it's suspicious.

Is everything always this complicated with you?

Yes, and a thousand times more with my mother.

I just don't understand how she's gonna accept you

and then offer you breakfast after a two-minute conversation

that ended with you sneezing on her.

First, near,

not on her.

And second,

you should've warned me you had pets.

There's no pets.

My nose knows. You have pets.

Uh, your nose knows nothing. There's no pets.

Well, there probably was a pet, but it ran away after trying

to show you affection
