( screaming)

Paige, where are you?!

Look out!

Hurry.

WITCHES: "Claws of pain

"we have to sever. Demon, you are gone forever."

( screaming)

Sorry to bother you, but she was immune to my powers.

That's okay, I was just getting ready to leave work.

Oh honey, you're hurt.

Oh, it's okay, it's just a scratch.

So how's it going?

How's the new place?

Great, and great.

How about you?

Can't complain.

Ditto.

Well, it's good to know that we can live apart

and still kick some butt if we have to, right?

So, do I want to ask about this demon with the bad manicure?

A harpy.

Part of a faction.

Tried to kill us to move up in the world.

You know, pretty standard stuff.

You want to stay for dinner?

I would love to, but Cole is planning

this whole romantic thing

for us tonight.

Yeah, I just thought, you know, maybe we could talk.

Why? Are you okay? Is everything okay?

Yeah. Everything's fine.

I just thought maybe we could catch up.

Another time.

PAIGE: Do you want me to, um...

orb you home? No.

Cole's not so crazy about you orbing in without calling first.

Except for

emergencies, you know.

You understand?

Sure.

Whatever.

Okay, I'm going to go.

I'll call you guys.

No orbing?

Don't start with the suspicions, Paige.

Cole's probably just trying to protect their privacy.

He's trying to protect something.

I'm just trying to protect our assets.

And the only way to do that is to cut our losses,

consolidate our resources.

Keep the competition from killing you.

Us.

Fine, what are you proposing? A merger.

Everyone here has similar agendas, right?

So, why don't we

work together to accomplish them?

You're late.

Sit down.

Where was I?

You were just encouraging us to hold hands

and be friends.

COLE: It's a new millennium.

We need to think in new ways to ensure our own survival.

Let's face it, it's a demon-eat-demon world out there.

( chuckles)

Each one of you leads a faction.

But that is the problem.

You're too busy

trying to kill each other.

In the end, everyone loses.

Tell that to the Grimlocks.

They tried to vanquish us just last week.

You had it coming.

HARPY: Care to try again?

My point exactly.

Infighting has always been our undoing.

And I have learned from the humanity in me.

The only way for us to defeat good is to work together

to achieve common goals.

And who will decide

what these goals are? You?

Unless someone wants to challenge me.

( bell dings)

Meeting's adjourned.

Hi, honey.

You're home early.

♪ I am the son and the heir ♪

♪ I am human and I need to be loved ♪

♪ Just like everybody else does ♪

♪ See, I've already waited too long ♪

♪ And all my hope is gone. ♪

♪ Said I, I believe that everyone can fly ♪

♪ To wait for you, I... I... ♪

COLE: Vegetarian egg white omelet,

just the way you like it.

Um, that's sweet, honey,

but I think my stomach has other plans.

What's the matter?

Headache, upset stomach.

It's going around right now.

So maybe you should call in sick?

While so many relationships are in peril?

What would San Francisco do without my advice column?

I got to go.

Um, I want to invite my sisters over for dinner this week.

Is that okay?

Well, we just moved out.

Yeah, I know,

but I want to show them the place.

Besides, I don't want them to think

they're not still part of my life you know.

Fine.

Just no orbing, all right?

Already taken care of.

What happened?

Oh, nothing.

My shoulder just got in the way of a harpy's claw, that's all.

A harpy? You got attacked?

Why didn't you tell me?

Because I didn't think it was that big of a deal, that's why.

Well, it is to me!

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

It's just...

I think I deserve to know when my wife gets hurt.

You're right, you do.

JULIE: Excuse me. Mr. Turner?

Your 9:00 is waiting in the lobby.

Julie?

What are you doing here?

You didn't tell me she was here.

COLE: Well, we're working out of the apartment today.

They're painting my office.

You don't mind, do you?

No, no, of course not.

( romantic moans)

Make yourself at home.

I will. Thank you.

Pretty little witch,

if you're into that sort of thing.

I am.

Get the leader of the harpies.

I want to explain to her the consequences

of attacking my wife.

You don't really expect me to wage war on the new Source

without even talking to him first, do you?

It's a waste of time.

He'll never bring you back from exile.

He's heard the stories of what you did.

That was a different time...

and a different Source.

Still, it's not going to happen.

I wouldn't be here if I wasn't sure of that.

Then what makes working for us any better than working for him?

You ought to listen better.

I don't work for anyone.

We'd be equals, partners.

And once the Source is dead,

we'd go our separate ways.

So?

I'll let you know.

When I'm ready.

I want you to offer

the new Source an olive branch.

And if he refuses?

Then Keats has a new ally, and we have a new enemy.

Go.

Plenty of leftovers.

Probably won't have to do any cooking for a week.

I like to cook.

Well, there's less dishes to do, and that's a good thing, right?

I guess.

It's just, um...

with Phoebe and Cole gone, it's so quiet around here.

Everybody I grew up with is gone.

Still, we can make it noisy again.

With kids... people who will grow up with us.

We have an extra room now, right?

Right.

Oh sorry, am I interrupting?

Actually, I need to get going.

There's an upsurge in demonic activity

and the Elders want to figure out why.

Well since demonic activity

spilled into our living room last night,

I'm assuming it has something to do with us.

Well, keep an eye out and I'll let you know if I find anything out.

I love you.

I love you, too.

You okay?

Me?

Yeah, I'm fine.

Liar.

Look, I know I am not Phoebe,

but I am still your sister and you can talk to me, you know.

It's... it's just silly.

My uh... period was late this month,

by a couple of days.

And I guess I got my hopes up a little.

That's not silly honey,

you want kids, right?

Yeah, of course.

And it's just that we've been trying, and...

For a couple of months. Four.

But who's counting?

Oh, Piper, you're not baking cookies, you know.

It's going to take some time.

Yeah, I know.

I guess I was just worried that, you know,

something could be wrong.

Getting flung around by demons

isn't exactly conducive to making babies.

(Okay, A.) you're going to have kids.

You saw that in your future.

(And B.) I am living proof that magic happens

when whitelighters and witches get together.

So the sooner you stop worrying about it,

the sooner I will be an aunt.

Thanks.

You're welcome.

JULIE: The leader of the harpies

won't be coming to see you.

I'm afraid things got out of hand for her.

Nice work.

What's next?

Rowan's waiting to see you.

Apparently the Queen would like in on the new alliance.

Send him in.

He'll see you now.

Thank you for the audience.

The queen sent me to...

Tell your queen

that if she steps a foot inside my realm,

she'll beg me to banish her again.

She sent me to tell you that we've learned our lesson.

And we're willing to serve you.

No thanks.

I already have enough demons betraying me.

You haven't even heard our offer.

I think you should be leaving now.

Paige.

Oops, I just thought I'd pop in.

From where?

Uh... the kitchen.

I'm not interrupting anything,

am I? No.

We're done here.

Elevator's that way, Rowan.

What the hell do you think you're doing?

This is exactly why I don't want you people orbing in here.

You people? Nice.

What do you want?

Phoebe, I think Piper needs to talk to her.

Well, you missed her.

But why don't you orb on over to the newspaper,

I'm sure those journalists can keep a secret.

Just tell her I stopped by, okay?

And dare I ask,

why is it so dark in here in the middle of the day?

Migraine.

Which you're only adding to.

You know what, Cole, just bite me.

( elevator dings)

After you.

Nice guy, huh?

Oh. Uh... Cole.

You a lawyer?

No, why?

Because only another lawyer would think that.

No, I was being sarcastic.

About being a lawyer?

No, about thinking he was a nice guy.

( laughs)

Sorry.

I'm Rowan.

Paige.

Nice to meet you.

So how long have you disliked Cole?

Oh, ever since I first met him.

( chuckles)

You?

Uh, pretty much just recently.

Ever since he married my sister.

Do you have any siblings?

Oh yeah, my family's real big.

Then you know what it's like

to have to bite your tongue.

Been there, done that.

But listen, uh... I'd like to continue this

but... we've just run out of floors.

Any chance we could get together?

Well, my sister... My other sister...

Owns this nightclub called P3.

And I'll be there later if you want to stop by.

I'll drop in.

Okay.

Are you coming?

Oh, no... underground parking.

You're certain of her identity?

She's the sister of the Source's new bride.

That makes her a Charmed One.

This might be our lucky day.

And you said meeting with the new Source would be useless.

He refused your offer, didn't he?

Yes, but he gave us something much more valuable instead.

If we can get a Charmed One on our side,

we can use her magic to take over the underworld

before the new Source can.

We can destroy him and anyone else who opposes us.

Yeah, but she's a witch.

They don't change sides on a whim.

Oh, I think I can get her to see things our way.

With your permission of course.

By all means.

Take whomever you need.

( music playing)

Your mystery man still pulling a disappearing act?

I can't believe he stood me up.

Well, I'm glad I'm not dating any more.

Yeah, well, I should have known better

than to think I could meet a guy through Cole.

Paige, I have two words for you:

"broken" and "record."

If you keep this up, you're just gonna end up

pushing Phoebe further away.

She's right.

Ah, that's more than two words.

Hi.

Do I still get free drinks here

or do I have to pay now?

Whoa, you don't look so good.

Are you okay?

That's partly why I'm here.

I thought it was just a bug, and now I'm not so sure.

So I'm wondering if maybe it has

something to do with, you know, the scratch.

Well, maybe you're turning into a harpy.

Oh, God, are you?

Well, that's how Piper

turned into a windigo... or was it the fury?

I've turned into so many things, I can't keep track.

You know, I wouldn't worry.

You can't turn into a harpy

just by getting scratched.

Yeah, but still, do you mind you know...? Not at all.

Hey, hey, hey.

A little discretion in public.

Feel any better?

A little, I think.

So any word from the elders on what's going on?

No, not yet.

Why, what's going on?

A lot of bad guys, apparently more than usual.

Should we be worried?

Nope, not 'til after dinner.

You want to join us?

Oh, okay, sure, why not?

I'm not gonna go.

I don't want Rowan thinking I was waiting for him

if he shows up this late.

God forbid.

You buying?

You kidding?

Phoebe, I think you should

try to find a moment to talk to Piper.

Why, is something wrong? No, not really.

I just think she could use your support about something.

That's why I

orbed over to your place this morning... Wait.

You orbed? To my place?

After I specifically asked you not to?

Paige, what were you thinking?

I was just trying to help Piper.

Was Cole upset?

A little... a lot.

Great, Paige.

Just great.

( sighs): I was just trying to help.

( screech)

( screeching)

( screaming)

( bats screeching)

So am I the weirdest case you've ever seen?

I don't know.

I've worked the night shift for a while now.

I've seen some pretty strange things.

Yeah, but these were bats, Doc.

Paige. Paige.

Oh, my God. Are you okay?

What happened?

Bats. Lots of bats.

You her sisters?

Yeah.

Is she gonna be all right? Honestly,

if she hadn't been found by somebody in time,

she might have bled to death.

But she's gonna be okay? Yes.

After some rest,

and rabies shots.

Ouch.

You got attacked by bats outside of my club?

That can't be natural.

Can it?

Well, bat bites aren't completely unheard of in the city.

I have a friend over at County

who treated one a couple of months ago.

Right, but these were bats: plural. ( pager beeps)

I'll be right back.

Excuse me.

Sounds more natural than supernatural to me.

Yeah,

well I'm thinking vampires.

Vampires?

That'd be different.

No, that's not possible.

Why not?

Well, because as far as I know,

vampires attack in human form

and not as a swarm of bats, you know.

It's gotta be something else.

That's true, vampires have been

ostracized from the underworld for centuries.

As far as I know, they're part of a whole different network.

I'm sorry,

Lisa here is gonna draw some blood so we can run some tests.

That mean I can go home?

Well, I don't see why not.

I'm gonna get you started on antibiotics

and then schedule the first of the rabies shots

in the morning.

Okay, now,

make a fist.

Relax your hand now...

I'm almost done.

You okay? Yeah,

as long as I don't look.

I didn't mean you...

( body thuds)

Phoebe?

Damn it.

Where is she?

What about the grimlocks?

The grimlocks, you think they attacked her?

If they did, I'll crush their skulls

with my bare hands.

And who said romance was dead?

We were talking about who we could trust, remember?

Grimlocks, yea or nay?

Sorry.

Uh, yeah.

Grimlocks are okay.

Keats is the only one I don't trust.

( telephone rings)

That's gotta be her. We can only hope.

Phoebe?

Hi, honey. Are you all right?

I called your cell, you didn't pick up.

Yeah, well that's probably because I was unconscious.

What? Did a demon hurt you?

No, it was nothing like that.

I just, uh... I fainted.

Fainted?

Yeah, it wasn't a big deal.

Oh, why do people gotta keep their high beams on?

Phoebe, people just don't faint for no reason.

Well, I've been pretty run down

and the doctor said I might be anemic

so he took some blood to make sure that's all it is.

Well, maybe you ought to get Leo

to check that harpy scratch in case...

I already did and he said there's nothing to worry about.

Besides, we have bigger demonic issues

that we have to deal with right now.

Paige was bitten by a bunch of bats.

Bats?

Are you sure?

Hmph, I'm sure he's all broken up about it.

Yeah, she's okay.

Leo's gonna heal her when we get home.

So you want to meet us there?

I am home, Phoebe.

You called me.

I meant the manor.

I'm sorry.

I'm on my way.

You think it was Rowan?

He must have been trying to turn her.

You can't let them get a Charmed One on their side,

they'll be too powerful.

Don't you think I know that?!

Damn it.

Gather the faction leaders.

The queen wants a war, she's got one. Where are you going?

To the manor, to help save... Paige.

Manticore?

Bites, but doesn't fly.

Phoenix?

Flies but doesn't bite.

Chupacabra!

God bless you.

Flies and bites but only attacks livestock.

What about shape-shifters?

What about this being a waste of time?

Look at me, I'm fine.

Let's just call it a night.

Paige, if you're tired, just go to bed.

We'll... wake you up if we find something.

Fine.

I'll be asleep.

She's a delight.

She's been through a lot. She just needs some rest.

PHOEBE: Isn't there some way you can

help us narrow down the suspects?

With every demonic faction in town,

it makes it kinda hard.

Okay, so what's going on?

Is there a demon convention in San Francisco or what?

Yes, there is a demonic electoral college.

They've called a meeting and they're voting in a new Source.

( both laughing)

You think?

Well, not the voting part, but maybe.

I mean, there's got to be somebody pretty powerful

that's bringing together these factions.

Which means...

Evil may have a new leader.

PHOEBE: Cole!

Honey, I got here as soon as I could.

I'll be fine, don't worry.

How's Paige, where is she?

She's sleeping. I healed her.

Are you sure?

Yeah. Why?

Do you know what we're up against?

Bats that bite can only mean

one thing... vampires.

PHOEBE: No, we ruled them out.

It doesn't seem like their MO.

Have you ever seen a vampire?

No, but I've read about them.

Well, I've dealt with them.

You can trust Ann Rice, or you can trust me.

I think he might be right.

LEO: Wait, you dealt with vampires as a demon?

How is that possible?

I thought they were pariahs in the underworld.

Well, I wasn't too picky who I dealt with.

I didn't care that the Source had banished them

for selling him out to his enemies.

Well, why attack a Charmed One now? What do they want?

Well, there must be a power struggle.

They must be trying to overtake the underworld.

By killing Paige?

No, by turning her into a vampire.

Paige?!

Paige?

Where'd she go?

Oh, my God! Paige!

Watch out!

I ransacked the whole house and this is all I could find.

Okay, so what do we do about the holy water?

I can get some.

You know, that stuff's

only gonna, uh, um...

help you fight off the vampires.

It's not gonna change Paige back.

PIPER; Yeah, I'm working on that.

According to The Book, if you kill a vampire queen,

then all her little vampires die with her.

Really?

Interesting.

They certainly don't like to spread that around.

PIPER: But that's not gonna work, 'cause

then it'll kill Paige, too.

No, not if she hasn't bitten anyone.

Apparently the transformation only takes place

after blood is spilled or, in this case, sucked.

PIPER: Okay, so we have to kill the queen fast.

How do we vanquish her?

With the Power of Three.

Ah! Of course.

Can't anything be easy?

PIPER: Oh, it gets worse.

Vampires are immune to witch powers.

Well, I'll get the holy water

once I fill in the Elders about the new Source.

New Source?

There's a... new Source?

Yeah, we think so.

Any idea who it is?

No, not yet.

PHOEBE: Okay, let's just focus on finding Paige.

So if you were undead, where would you be?

Cemetery

Right, let's go.

We don't got a lot of time.

PHOEBE: And we got a bunch of them to check out.

Well, Phoebe...

I... I don't want, I don't want you to go.

What?

Well, it's

too dangerous. What happens if

you faint again, but this time

in the middle of a vampire attack?

Baby, that's not gonna happen.

Well, how can you be sure?

I don't want to lose you.

I don't want to lose Paige.

I don't understand. Weren't you just

telling us that we had to save Paige?

Well, yeah, but that was before I had all the facts.

You need the Power of Three.

I'm sure Paige is not gonna be in a rhyming mood.

So what do you suggest?

That we let her spend eternity as a vampire?

She's still my sister,

and that doesn't change because I happen to be sick.

Or because I'm your wife.

The vampires are trying to convert my wife's sister,

a Charmed One.

I'm interpreting this as an act of war against me.

Wait a second, now. Let's not overreact.

Maybe this is some kind of a misunderstanding.

I don't misunderstand anything.

I want the vampires exterminated.

Every last one of them.

But vampires multiply too fast.

We could never get them all.

If we kill the queen...

they all die.

I've never heard that.

What's your source?

Are you questioning my orders?

No.

Of course not.

I want the queen.

Dispatch your forces.

Tell them to torture any

vampire they see.

Make them talk,

but don't forget...

my wife is out there, too.

Anyone lays a claw on her

will answer to me.

Leave.

As you wish.

What about the other sister?

Are you gonna let her die with the queen?

It would eliminate the Charmed Ones.

Nn... Phoebe would be devastated.

But I wouldn't be.

(anguished screams)

( sucking, slurping)

Sorry to interrupt you during dinner.

That's all right, I've had better.

Is she here then?

Just arrived.

She's perfect.

She'll fit right in.

I thought you'd like her.

Are you hungry, my dear?

Famished.

That's wonderful.

Now for your first meal,

I have two savory victims in mind.

Here you are.

Anything for you, my queen.

I want you to go back to your sisters, Paige.

Take a taste of your own blood.

It will seal your conversion and turn them as well.

That's genius.

With the Power of Three on our side,

the Source will be no match for us.

My sisters are very powerful.

They won't join us willingly.

I don't think I can do it alone.

Oh, my darling, look around you.

That's what families are for.

What are you doing here, Keats?

I have to get a message to the queen.

Well, why don't you take it yourself?

Because someone might be following me.

Tell her she needs to leave town... fast.

The Source is...

The Source is what?

Where's the queen, Keats?

Ouch.

You can vanquish me if you want,

but I'm not telling you anything.

Do you really think that vanquishing you

is the worst I can do?

( screaming)

Okay!

So let's try this again.

Where is the vampire queen?

They're not here.

They must be looking for you.

Do-gooders.

I was hoping to get this over with.

Now just relax.

You're only innocent once.

But I'm starving.

I feel like I've been waiting for this moment my whole life.

What are you smiling at?

I was just thinking of my first time.

Tell me about it.

It's better than you can possibly imagine.

Danger, excitement,

the warm glow you feel afterwards.

There's nothing like it.

How many have you had?

I don't keep track.

The faces all fade away.

It's the taste you remember.

And what was I, just fast food?

Oh, hardly.

Just... relax.

Clear your mind.

You are a hunter now.

You have the ability to find your prey.

I don't understand.

You will.

Close your eyes.

And focus...

I know where they are.

Oh, you're a natural.

Tell the queen to expect company.

Hey, wait!

Hey!

Wait! We just want

to talk to you!

What is going on?

That's the fourth demon tonight

to run away from us.

Maybe word got out that we killed the Source?

The old Source.

Oh, you had to mention that, didn't you?

I don't get it. We've been chasing demons all night,

searching cemeteries all night, and no freaking vampires!

This is ridiculous.

We gotta figure out something else before the sun comes up.

Whoa...

( groans)

What's the matter?

You, okay?

Yeah, I'm just a little dizzy.

Those tombstones

aren't actually moving,

are they?

Phoebe, this is not funny.

Maybe this is more than just

being run down.

Maybe you're pregnant.

( chuckles): That is funny.

Actually, it's not so funny.

I went to the drugstore, I got a test,

I peed on the stick and I anxiously

awaited the results in two minutes.

And?

And... it was negative, thankfully.

Yeah, well, mine was, too.

You thought you were pregnant?

For about a minute and a half.

Oh, honey, I am so sorry.

Oh, it's okay. It's no big deal.

Yes, it is.

To you it is.

Is this what you wanted to talk to me about?

I had no idea.

It's okay. I understand.

No, it's not okay.

I left the manor, not the family.

I still want to be a part of your life.

All of it.

You sure?

You come over here.

( screeching)

Aw.

Don't I get a hug?

Paige...

How did you find us?

We share the same blood, Piper.

( sighs)

I sniffed you out.

Paige, listen to me.

We can go back to the manor,

and we'll find something to change you back.

Nah.

( grunts)

Whoa. Hold it.

Why you gotta be like that?

( grunting)

Now it's time we really bond as sisters.

( screams)

Paige, we are just trying to help you, damn it!

Catch me if you can.

( screeching)

Okay, Leo, come on, come on. Orb. Orby.

Where are we? I can't see a thing.

Here.

( screeching)

LEO: Well, which one's Paige?

How should I know?

Welcome to our family.

PIPER: Stay away from us or you'll get

an eye full of holy water and a chest full of wood.

You'd only be delaying the inevitable.

Now, why can't we do this without a fight?

Paige, we're your sisters, you're not a vampire yet.

We're offering immortal life.

An eternity together as sisters.

Now, isn't that preferable

to... death?

Are those our only two choices?

'Cause I prefer the scenario

where you die,

and we get to stay human.

If you could have killed me,

you would have done so already.

We both know that.

We gotta get out of here. Not without Paige.

Words will never

make them understand.

No, but they will.

( screeching)

Incoming!

( shrieking)

Look out!

Leo, holy water!

( grunting)

Let's go!

( grunting)

Leo!

( grunting)

No! My babies!

( grunting)

Come, before the Source kills us all.

( groaning)

We gotta get Paige.

( grunting)

The Source.

I should have bitten you.

Yeah, well, bite this.

( screams)

What's going on?

PIPER: The queen must be dead.

Paige!

Paige!

In-laws.

Paige, thank God you're alive.

You all right?

( groans): The Source...

The Source? What do you mean?

He was here.

Just now? You saw him?

Uh-uh. The queen must have posed a threat to him.

Well, that would explain

why he wanted to kill her, but why not Paige or us?

PIPER: I don't know, let's just

count our blessings and get the hell out of here.

You're up early.

Vampire nightmares?

Oddly enough, no.

Just some other thoughts.

Any you want to share?

You wouldn't be interested.

Try me.

They're about Cole.

I'm listening.

Okay.

Remember the guy that stood me up?

Uh, how could I? I never met him.

Yeah, you did, actually.

He was one of the vampires.

And I first met him at the penthouse.

He was there seeing Cole.

Now, I know what you're gonna say.

Maybe Cole didn't know he was a vampire

and we should probably give him the benefit of the doubt,

and you're right, we should.

So then why do I get the sinking feeling

that you might be on to something?

You do?

Well, it's just a lot of little things.

Like him not wanting you to orb in...

him not wanting us to...

Save me?

Go after vampires.

I mean, I'm not saying that

he's a demon, okay, because we both know that's not possible.

We both know anything is possible.

Okay, but what if we're wrong?

Then we lose Cole and Phoebe forever.

We're not wrong.

Something is not right.

Hello?

Hi. It's Paige.

Paige? How are you feeling?

Human again, thank God.

Yeah, thank God.

Uh, is Phoebe there?

She's still sleeping.

Is it important?

I'll just... call her later.

Who was that?

Oh, nobody. How you feeling?

Better.

Good.

Uh, Phoebe...

I'm never gonna be okay with you chasing demons any more.

You can't change that.

And you can't change the fact

that they're gonna keep coming after me.

And that I have sisters that need me.

I understand.

Do you?

Because yesterday,

it seemed like you didn't.

Well, I just don't want anything to happen to you.

Ever.

Is that so bad?

No.

I'll be at work.

( kisses)

Hello?

This is Phoebe Halliwell.

Hi, Doctor. Did the test results come in?

I'm... what?

I-I double-checked the results myself.

You're pregnant, Miss Halliwell.

Congratulations.

Miss Halliwell?

Uh, Miss Halliwell? Hello?
