NOTE: I looked this over and found out that I missed a number, so I've fixed it. This one SHOULD be accurate, number-wise.
----------------
I brought forward all of the scenarios from the first page to the second page and also straightened out the numbers. No one did this on this page, so I'm going to now. At the same time, if someone duplicated a scenario, I've deleted it.
Also, typical Es, I had to edit some of them…AND if the author adds extra comments after their question, I deleted the extras – other members can add their comments if they want to. This keeps the entries fairly short and easy to read.
If by chance, any of these reminds you of a scenario that had more to it and you want people on this page to read it (no matter if you wrote it or someone else did), feel free to find it on the previous pages and re-post it.
1. What if one of Paige’s adopted parents survived the car crash?
2. What if Chris was Piper and Dan’s son?
3. What if Andy’s spirit was a warrior in Valhalla and was the one whom Darryl had to fight?
4. What if both Patty and Little Prue died at the lake?
5. What if Sam was the Charmed Ones’ whitelighter rather than Leo?
6. What if the Source’s powers didn’t go into Cole after the stolen powers were returned from the Hollow at the end of 'Charmed and Dangerous' in Season 4, but instead went into Phoebe?
7. What if Sam and Patty gave Baby Paige to Victor who raised her?
8. What if Grams accepted Gideon’s offer to enroll the sisters at Magic School?
9. What if Doctor Williamson was successfully saved?
10. What if Prue secretly knew about Paige?
11. What if the sisters never became witches?
12. What if Victor fought Grams for custody after Patty's death and won?
13. What if Patty lived, and she and Victor raised their daughters together?
14. What if Patty lived, she and Victor raised their daughters together, and both she and Victor were against magic?
15. What if Phoebe disliked Cole from the outset and he had to try to seduce one of her sisters?
16. What if Cole still tried to infiltrate into their lives, but none of them were romantically interested in him?
17. What if Grams died shortly after Patty died and Victor left, when the sisters were still children?
18. What if, due to events in their early childhood, Prue, Piper, and Phoebe were raised separately and were basically just meeting for the first time in ‘Something Wicca This Way Comes’?
19. What if it was Prue, Piper, or Phoebe who was raised without knowing about her sisters rather than Paige, so Paige was raised with two of her sisters but the third one wasn't?
20. What if Patty didn't really die, but faked her death to run away with Sam and Paige?
21. What if Prue was alive in the alternate universe of ‘Centennial Charmed?’
22. What if Cole was truly possessed by the Source with Cole unable to do anything himself?
23. What if Shax was never vanquished in ‘Charmed Again, Part One’?
24. What if Grams never bound her granddaughters’ powers?
25. What if Phoebe married Drake or Season 2 cupid rather than Coop?
26. What if the Charmed Ones knew Christy was the Ultimate Innocent and planned on how to save her rather than plotting how to murder her and Billie?
27. What if Phoebe never met Coop and never had Ladybug, but remained single after ‘Forever Charmed’?
28. What if Leo remained gone after ‘Love Hurts’ and instead Andy became the sisters’ whitelighter as a reward for all of his years as a cop and for what he had done for the Halliwells during Season 1?
29. What if the Halliwells kept the knowledge they learnt in colonial Virginia and in every episode after ‘All Halliwell’s Eve’, they used something they had learned?
30. What if the red-hooded Source from Season 3 wasn’t played by the same actor who played Belthazor so that he could continue to be the Source in Season 4 rather than the black-robed, half-faced demon who did?
31. What if the Council and the Triad were distant relatives?
32. What if the sisters never got a second or even a third power but just their original ones which they nurtured, so they progressed into the ones we saw in ‘Morality Bites’?
33. What if Cole was truly just a mortal lawyer who was possessed by a mercenary demon named Belthazor, so Phoebe could truly get rid of Belthazor while keeping Cole?
34. What if Leo was correct in Season 1 and that witches only needed whitelighters during their first year as witches, so Patty never divorced Victor, Paige never existed, and Leo was only part of Season 1?
35. What if Piper and Leo only had Prudence Melinda who only had whitelighter powers and then Phoebe and Coop only had Ladybug who only had cupid powers, while Paige and Henry decided to only adopt non-magical children, so Melinda Warren was correct and her powers truly culminated (ended) with the Charmed Ones?
36. What if the Charmed Ones’ destiny was always truly to protect innocents and not vanquish the Source?
37. What if Paige was the result of a demon raping Patty while she was a teenager, before she met Victor, the reason Paige was given up for adoption?
38. What if Piper and Leo had Christina rather than Chris and after Wyatt killed his younger sister, Christina’s best friend and cousin, Ladybug, went back into the past, not to save Wyatt but to kill him?
39. What if Paige was allowed to be the Only Child she was raised to be, so that once she knew about witchcraft, she could become the leader of the Charmed Ones, but treated her older half-sisters as adults rather than children as Prue did, letting Piper and Phoebe grow up and truly become adults?
40. What if Paige was truly just the daughter of a whitelighter and Wyatt and Chris were truly just sons of a whitelighter, so they could orb (their only whitelighter power…), but also each had one (and only one) of the Warren powers – Paige could move things with her mind just like Prue; Wyatt could see the future and Chris could freeze molecules?
41. What if Cole chose Prue or Piper to seduce rather than Phoebe?
42. What if Billie was the fourth sister in Season 4?
43. What if Cole's and Phoebe's baby from Season 4 survived?
44. What if during ‘Centennial Charmed’, rather than having the sisters never find Paige, Cole had Phoebe never try to take away the part of his soul that Belthazor occupied so that when Phoebe and the Seer returned the Hollow to its box, the Source’s powers had nowhere to go except into the Seer?
45. What if Piper never got her exploding power?
46. What if Cole was alive in Season 7 and simple trapped there, but with Piper’s help, got out?
47. What if Chris was Cole's and Piper's son or Cole's and Prue's son or Cole’s and Paige’s son?
48. What if in Season 8 Piper traveled further in the past and found Prue and brought her back to the present with her?
49. What if Cole didn’t became a mortal after losing his powers so the powers of the Source would have had nowhere to go?
50. What if the extra powers that Cole picked up in the Demonic Wasteland didn’t drive him crazy, so he never stalked Phoebe in Season 5, so she ended up missing him because no other man ever measured up to him, so she went looking for him and they ended up getting married during Season 8?
51. What if Paige could always sense evil, the way she did in ‘Size Matters’, even if the sisters would still scry, since scrying couldn’t be used to find evil?
52. What if Phoebe's empathy only made her feel other’s emotions and she couldn’t channel them?
53. What if Prue kept Father Thomas' power in Season 3 and gained control over it, and then Phoebe got some variation of it as a witch power in Season 6?
54. What if Prue’s second power was levitation and Phoebe’s second power was astral projection, with Phoebe getting hers before Prue got hers?
55. What if Piper and Paige also lost their powers in Season 6 which they had to earn back by doing something good, while also not having the Power of Three to battle demons and had to depend on Chris and Little Wyatt to protect them until they got their powers back?
56. What if Leo actually died during ‘Love Hurts?’ and stayed dead and was the last whitelighter we ever saw?
57. What if during ‘Love Hurts’, when Piper told Leo not to give up his powers, since then he wouldn’t be able to save the next Daisy, he left and never returned until they met Paige and her husband/whitelighter - Leo?
58. What if whitelighters were encouraged to have relationships with their charges so the three sisters were actually Patty’s and Sam’s and not Patty’s and Victor’s?
59. What if witches weren't assigned whitelighters to guide and protect them but were more like the guardian angels in Season 7 who helped out behind the scenes, but stayed invisible?
60. What if whitelighters (or Elders) and guardian angels didn’t exist, so witches grew up and learnt their powers by forming or joining covens, so the sisters had to join the coven they met in ‘Witch Trial’ or Grams’ old one with ‘Aunt Gail’?
61. What if it was Paige who was kidnapped by the Triad as a child and raised by demons, and Prue, Piper and Phoebe learned of her existence in Season 8, after they helped Paige’s adopted sister and Leo’s new charge – Billie – rescue her?
62. What if the sisters were two-three years younger when the sisters first got their powers, so Prue had just graduated from college, Piper only had one year left of cooking school and Phoebe had just graduated from high school?
63. What if Phoebe didn't graduate from college after a year and didn’t complete her degree until Season 5, so she wasn't the sister involved with Cole and never had a real relationship until much later in the series?
64. What if Piper’s heart belonged to Dan rather than Leo?
65. What if Drake was Phoebe's true love and he didn’t die until ‘Forever Charmed’, leaving a single Phoebe to raise their daughter, Ladybug?
66. What if Piper was already pregnant with Chris at the end of Season 5 and rather than sending Leo to Valhalla, Chris obliterated Leo’s orbs and Leo never came back and Piper found out?
67. What if demons faked Prue's death, and when Piper, Phoebe and Paige helped Billie rescue her sister – her sister was actually Prue?
68. What if Grams was the one who died in the lake, so Patty raised the sisters until she had the heart attack during ‘PreWitched’?
69. What if Paige was raised with Billie and Christy as their adoptive sister and never met her birth family?
70. What if Billie and Christy's last name was Warren rather than Jenkinses (that the females in their family truly kept their maiden names) and Paige was *their* half-sister and together *they* were stronger than Prue, Piper and Phoebe - that *they* were the true Charmed Ones (obviously in this scenario, ‘The Witch is Back' never happened)?
71. What if Chris was actually the Phoetus (Phoebe and Cole's baby from Season 4) and used Cole's powers to fool the future Elders into giving him whitelighter powers and sending him to the past to try to stop the Titans from taking over the world, when his real mission was to kill his mother (the plot of one of my favorite fanfics, Nightcrawler’s amazing ‘Carry On, My Wayward Son’)?
72. What if the Elders always knew about Paige, and they were the ones who had her given to a different set of witches to raise, knowing that the Power of Four would be too strong and if the four sisters ever cast a spell together it would destroy the world?
73. What if the sisters met Paige in Season 3 and became friends with her before finding out that she was their half-sister in Season 4 - so she could truly mourn Prue as her friend?
74. What if Leo was never an Elder until Chris came back and turned him into one so he could stop the Titans, but once he became one he could never come back to Earth, and Chris suddenly became half-firefighter rather than half-whitelighter?
75. What if the last time we saw Cole was during ‘Long Live the Queen’?
76. What if ‘\Magic School never existed?
77. What if Prue came back during ‘Forever Charmed’ and pointed out how far off track her sisters had become and Piper and Phoebe were convinced to do better in the future?
78. What if Phoebe remained the Queen of Underworld?
79. What if Paige never existed?
80. What if Paige stayed a social worker?
81. What if after ‘Centennial Charmed’, Paige decided to marry Glen and travel around the world with him, leaving her half-sisters without the Power of Three?
82. What if the Halliwell line actually started with Mark Halliwell and none of the Halliwell men ever had daughters, so the Halliwells were Peter, Paul and Patrick Halliwell rather than Prue, Piper and Phoebe?
83. What if during ‘Forever Charmed’ Piper discovered that she’d been in a coma since ‘All Hell Breaks Loose’ and Seasons 4 through 8 were just the dream she had during her coma and that Prue never died while Paige, wyatt, Chris, Billie, Christy, etc., never existed but Prue & Bane and Phoebe & Cole each had a daughter, and that Piper had birthed Leo’s daughter while in that coma and now those three young women were ready to become the Chosen Ones – not the Charmed Ones, since they’re cousins and not sisters?
84. What if every time the sisters used their powers to summon someone from the dead, each sister lost a year of her life as punishment?
85. What if Leo never got his powers back after ‘Awakened’, but the elder whitelighters (who were truly good and just) rewarded him for his 80 years of service by having the world think that he’d always been a doctor with his own clinic, taking care of those who couldn’t afford to go to the hospital, while never allowing him and Piper to have a twice-blessed child?
86. Since Paige is the reincarnation of the Evil Enchantress, what if once she decided to remain with the Source, she lost her half-whitelighter powers and instead received the Enchantress’ elemental powers?
87. What if Phoebe Halliwell died with Antoine, so Prue and Piper had to accept P. Russell as the new Phoebe?
88. What if the reason why Phoebe had such trouble finding Ladybug’s sperm donor is because once she fell for Cole and later Jason, she stopped caring about innocents and misused her powers, so not having her fondest dream come true – having Ladybug – was her punishment?
89. What if the sisters took the Angel of Destiny's offer and gave up their powers during ‘Witch Way Now’?
90. What if the Crone was the Big Bad for the rest of the series – that she was the one who kidnapped Wyatt, just like she kidnapped Christy many years earlier?
91. What if Prue was the one who got shot in ‘All Hell Breaks Loose’ rather than Piper?
92. What if Abbey the stalker killed Prue?
93. What if Chris impregnated the charge he slept with during 'Forget Me Not'?
94. What if the Avatars came to Piper during ‘Charmed Again’ and offered to bring Prue back in exchange for helping them create Utopia?
95. What if Prue decided not to move on after her death and decided to remain on Earth as a ghost, remaining the leader of the reconstituted Charmed Ones even if she no longer had any powers since Paige had both of them which worked exactly as Prue’s had?
96. What if Piper’s pregnancy test in Season 1 showed that she was pregnant with Jeremy's child?
97. What if Grams died while the sisters were still kids and the Matthewses, who had already adopted Paige, decided to adopt the Halliwell sisters, too, especially because once Grams died, all of their powers came unbound and the Matthewses were also witches?
98. What if the Charmed Ones stripped Wyatt's powers during 'Prince Charmed'?
99. What if Paige and Gideon became romantically involved and she talked him out of thinking that killing a baby was for the Greater Good?
100. What if rather than trying to kill Wyatt, when Gideon found out what a horrible mother Piper would be without Elder Leo’s help that Gideon kidnapped Wyatt and secretly raised him, preventing him from ever turning evil?
101. What if Prue ended up marrying Season 2 Jack Sheridan, and Season 7 Inspector Sheridan was his sister?
102. What if Phoebe never escaped the Underworld during ‘All Hell Breaks Loose’ and remained the Source's prisoner, and the Source used her to make Cole do the Source’s will, including killing one of Phoebe’s sisters?
103. What if Tempus didn't turn back time in ‘All Hell Breaks Loose’ and Prue was able to stop it?
104. What if Grams and Patty never died and all five of them lived in the manor with Paige eventually making it six?
105. What if Patty succeeded in killing the water demon?
106. What if Tempus didn't die but was just seriously injured and after ‘Forever Charmed’ he finally recovered, stronger than ever, but was raving mad and decided to get revenge by resetting time back to when the sniper shot Prue with Piper already dead and Phoebe stuck in the Underworld with Cole?
107. What if Paige managed to save her parents during ‘A Paige from the Past’ and refused to follow Leo back to the present?
108. What if vanquishing Cole in ‘Centennial Charmed’ didn't reset the alternate reality and Paige was stuck there with Alternate Piper and Alternate Phoebe while Piper and Phoebe suddenly found themselves without the Power of Three?
109. What if Clyde refused to answer Piper’s call, and Darryl's gunshot killed Cole?
110. What if Future Piper from ‘A Witch in Time’ didn't fade away, so there were always two Pipers?
111. What if Piper and Prue were never able to get the amulet off of Evil Phoebe, and Antoine accidentally died when Prue deflected Evil Phoebe's flame to him, so Evil Phoebe just went raving mad and did a Carrie, while Good Phoebe was stuck in the past where Past Prue and Past Piper killed her?
112. What if after returning during ‘Centennial Charmed’, Paige called out, “Hey there, Sun God!” and Piper and Phoebe heard her?
113. What if Phoebe lost her fight with Piper during ‘Valhalley of the Dolls’ and the spell Paige cast to not protect Piper from her pain just made it worse and her even more stark-raving mad?
114. What if Kyra foresaw her death clearly and alerted the sisters to the fact that Fake Phoebe was actually Zankou?
115. What if Kyra got her wish to be human but still had her powers and ended up becoming close friends with Phoebe and was always around in the manor, reading off each other's premonitions and finishing off each other's sentences and driving Paige and Piper mad all the time?
116. What if Patty was raped by a demon as a teenager, and Prue had all of the demonic powers, Piper was Patty and Victor's child and had every witch powers, and Phoebe was Patty and Sam's love child and she had all of the whitelighter powers, but all three were just good witches who had those powers, and were still Charmed?
117. What if whitelighters who were sent to guide new witches were only reborn deceased witches while the elder whitelighters were only former heads of coven, and all demons just deceased warlocks, so all were able to be either good or evil, and more likely both?
118. What if Paige was born due to Patty having an affair with a warlock?
119. What if Victor was born into a warlock family and assumed a role like Brendon in ‘When Bad Warlocks Go Good’ and turned good, but Grams didn't believe he could change, so he never married Patty, and Patty married Sam instead?
120. What if Natalie was the sisters’ whitelighter, not Leo?
121. What if demons were only “the Demons of” on “Charmed”, so warlocks remained the primary antagonists with Cole, Zankou, etc., as warlocks, not demons, and the Source the head warlock?
122. What if Prue was the only sister who survived the events of ‘Deja Vu All Over Again’?
123. What if Leo was involved with Phoebe and not Piper?
124. What if Leo's cover as a whitelighter was a doctor and not a handyman, so he always had an identity and Piper always respected him and didn’t just use him as her own little errand boy once he became a mortal?
125. What if everything that happened on “Charmed” was just a dream Phoebe had while she was in New York, and the sisters were never actually witches?
126. What if sisters didn't stop the Avatars and let Utopia go on?
127. What if Piper's club failed because Leo could only heal humans – his magic dust couldn’t heal the sign?
128. What if due to the pressure Grams was putting on her, Prue ran away from home when she was a teenager and never came back, so Piper, Phoebe and Paige were the Charmed Ones from the start?
129. What if Prue's ghost couldn't be summoned because when she died Astral Prue came loose and wandered the Earth, but Grams and Patty didn’t want to admit it?
130. What if Nicholas succeeded in killing the sisters and gaining their powers?
131. What if Kern didn’t mix up the Shadow and the Nexus so that Zankou only took in the Shadow (what Phoebe called the Woogeyman), since the Nexus is actually just the center of both a wiccan and a spiritual pentagram, so the only way to destroy the Nexus is to destroy one of the five points, so vanquishing the Shadow couldn’t make the Manor blow up?
132. What if “Charmed” was set in another town beside San Francisco?
133. What if the spell to vanquish the Shadow didn’t work and Zankou successfully took it in?
134. What if the sisters actually died when the manor was completely destroyed because an astral projection can only cast spells when it’s done by someone whose power is to move things with her mind, so the Power of Three spell didn’t work?
135. What if Cole successfully kept the Hollow inside him during Season 5?
8
136. What if Phoebe was a closet lesbian who was only sexually interested in women, and her real true love was Kyra?
137. What if as punishment for faking their deaths, the sisters and Leo were never able to change back into themselves, but had to stay in their alternate identities forever – without any powers?
138. What if when Piper time-travelled during ‘Forever Charmed’, she never went forward so we never saw Piper and Leo as old and instead she actually found Prue and Phoebe and brought forward the original Power of Three to dispel the Hollow and reconstitute the true Charmed Ones?
139. What if we only saw what happened six months in the future so we never saw any extra children or grandchildren?
140. What if Phoebe became a psychiatrist instead of an advice columnist?
141. What if Prue was correct during ‘Secrets and Guys’ and Phoebe ended up writing books for children rather than becoming an advice columnist?
142. What if Piper opened her own restaurant instead of a club?
143. What if Jenny was actually Billie or Christy, so Dan was a witch, too?
144. What if Andy had a child with his first wife while they were in Washington State?
145. What if Natalie survived and the one condition for Leo and Piper's marriage to go forward was that he’d become a mortal with no powers and she would be permanently assigned as the Charmed Ones’ whitelighter?
146. What if Andy's parents were killed by demons when he was a kid?
147. What if Doris in ‘The Day the Magic Died’ was a witch who tried to protect pregnant Piper rather than working with Cronyn to try to steal the baby?
148. What if during ‘The Seven Year Witch’, instead of Piper, it was Phoebe who was stuck in the cosmic void with Cole?
149. What if after binding her powers, Patty and Sam gave Baby Paige to Andy's parents who still had Andy and still lived next door to the Halliwells, so Patty and Grams could keep an eye on her?
150. What if the Charmed prophecy was made up of three powerful witches from three different families and Prue, Piper and Phoebe were not sisters but when demons killed all six of their parents when the girls were teenagers, they were adopted by Grams and raised together as adoptive sisters, meaning they all remembered their blood parents and were never as close as they were when they were raised as sisters?
151. What if the end of ‘Kill Billie, Vol. 2’ couldn't be undone, and Piper and Leo were left to face an uncertain future?
152. What if time wasn't reset during ‘All Hell Breaks Loose’, and Piper stayed dead while Prue managed to escape the hospital and after Leo rescued Phoebe, Prue and Phoebe went on the run?
153. What if the sisters were exposed as witches during ‘All Hell Breaks Loose’, but none died, so they faked their deaths, using different identities by glamouring themselves, but not going back to their own lives where the Source would be able to figure out who they actually were?
154. What if both Phoebe and Cole died in the Underworld during ‘All Hell Breaks Loose’ and Paige didn’t exist, so because Prue and Piper were no longer Charmed, the Source left them alone, so they went back to their true destiny of saving innocents rather than vanquishing demons?
155. What if Prue was the one who was adopted out and Paige was raised with Piper and Phoebe and became Charmed with them, but then died during ‘All Hell Breaks Loose’, so Prue was one who helped reconstitute the Charmed Ones?
156. What if Piper truly couldn't accept Leo's marriage proposal because she truly wasn't ready to get married, so the Elders took Leo away until she was older and more mature which only happened after Prue died and Paige used her social service skills to help Piper get over both Prue’s and Leo’s loss?
157. What if Leo was taken away from the sisters in ‘The Magic Hour’, and wasn't returned until after Piper gave birth to their daughter, Melinda?
158. What if Elders couldn’t leave Elderland and anyone living could never go up there without suffocating from lack of air, so the Elders were always just the mysterious ‘They’ of Season 1 and 2?
159. What if Prue was always a photographer?
160. What if Rex was actually the Source and Hannah was actually the Oracle, and they were the Big Bads during the entire series and not vanquished until ‘Forever Charmed’?
161. What if Paige knew about her powers before Season 4 and used them to help innocents long before she met Piper and Phoebe, so she continued to use them that way even when her half-sisters didn’t, because their destiny might be to vanquish the Source but hers was always to protect innocents?
162. What if Zankou was the Season 4 Source?
163. What if Piper was honest with Dan right away, including explaining who and what Leo was, and Dan was able to accept it, the way Henry did in Season 8, but her explanation helped Dan realize that Piper loved Leo and once Cupid helped Phoebe open her heart, she discovered that she loved Dan, so she was never interested in Cole, so he romanced Prue – and then Paige - instead - with the sisters never finding out that Cole was actually a demon until just before they vanquished him?
164. What if the Angel of Destiny's one condition for returning Leo after the Ultimate Battle, was they had to give up their powers?
165. What if Paige was the only sister to survive ‘Something Wicca This Way Goes?’ and raised Wyatt and Chris with Leo and Victor?
166. What if the Valkyries didn't exist on an island in the middle of the ocean but instead was Valhalla as depicted in Norse mythology so the sisters have to battle the actual Norse gods like Odin, Thor and Loki?
167. What if the Titans wanted to go after the Greek gods/godesses who put them in Tartarus instead of the Elders?
168. What if rather than Wyatt, Chris was the evil one, who lusted powers for himself because he hardly had any and the fact Piper and Leo favored Wyatt over him because Wyatt was twice blessed and Christ wasn’t, so Chris came back in time in order to kill both Leo and Wyatt?
169. What if it Paige could only orb anywhere in the same room in Season 4, into a different room in Season 5, across town in Season 6, anywhere in America in Season 7 and in Season 8, she was finally able to orb another country?
170. What if whitelighters have to hug their charges in order to orb them like Leo did Piper in ‘P3 H20’ so she could only orb one person at a time?
171. What if the Cleaners existed in ‘All Hell Break Loose’ and erased the exposure so Piper was never shot, so time was never reset so Prue never died?
172. What if the Cleaners made good on their threat in ‘Forget Me Not’ and when the sisters kept exposing magic, they not only didn't give Wyatt back, but erased the sisters?
173. What if Kyle stayed dead and didn't become a whitelighter?
174. What if Piper and Leo adopted Tyler and never had Wyatt and Chris?
175. What if in Season 6, Wyatt was the one who came back from the future?
176. What if Aviva’s Aunt Julie and Elise were twin sisters?
177. What if after the sisters risked exposure trying to get the Cleaners’ attention, the Cleaners didn't respond?
178. What if the Evil Enchantress kidnapped Paige and swapped places with her as a Charmed One while keeping Paige in a prison in her past?
179. What if after Phoebe said goodbye to Drake, Piper showed up at Magic School and sees Phoebe all sad and they both decide to go through the doors to try and say bye one more time to Drake?
180. What if Paige accepted her promotion to social worker at South Bay Social Services?
181. What if when Paige took the Book of Shadows to work in Season 4, one of the spells she cast had a long-lasting personal-gain effect that she didn’t find out until Season 8?
182. What if at the end of ‘Pre-Witched’ the sisters cast a spell to go back in time to find out what Grams intended to do with the potion Piper found?
183. What if after vanquishing Aims in ‘Blinded By the whitelighter’, Prue threw such a major fit, refusing for Leo to take them home so quickly that the other Elders heard her?
184. What if when Prue asked Phoebe what was in that head of hers at the end of ‘Blinded by the whitelighter’, Prue didn't back down and Phoebe ended up telling her about not vanquishing Cole?
185. What if some years after Season 8, Cole escaped from Limbo and as predicted in ‘A Witch in Time,’ he became the leader of the underworld but ruled quietly, not allowing any demons to go after the Charmed Ones, and Phoebe, who left Coop after she became pregnant with Ladybug, found out what Cole had done?
186. What if Piper put Paige through the afterlife before the Angel of Death got to her?
187. What if after the Angel of Death recruited Piper, she's somehow left with those powers permanently and now the Angel of Death takes advantage, because she's cheated death so many times that she's now developed a deep connection with death?
188. What if Drake fell in love with Paige instead of Phoebe as Cole intended it to be?
189. What if the Angel of Destiny refused Piper’s suggestion to put Leo on ice and Leo died in the hospital?
190. What if Paige figured out how to orb up to the Elders and kept orbing in unannounced asking too many questions and making too many demands to the point the Elders eventually started forcefully orbing her back to her room in the manor each time?
191. What if the real reason Paige was given up for adoption was because Patty was hoping to reconcile with Victor, and he would know that the fourth daughter wasn't his child?
192. What if Cole was the Ultimate Evil in Season 8 and they missed it since they thought it was Billie and Christy?
193. What if after Leo was put on ice and taken by the Angel of Destiny, his sudden disappearance from the hospital and during surgery started a full on investigation into the supernatural because every doctor there saw him disappear from the table?
194. What if after the Avatars showed up in the attic to Phoebe, Piper and Leo, the first thing Piper said smirking was, “Wait a minute! You're all wearing black? How can black be any good?
