Here I go again with another one of these polls. Like my S1 poll, I'm first going to state my own rules for these polls and then post ALL of the S2 endings, only numbering the ones that fit my rules and the choices. Hopefully that means I won't miss any.
RULES:
1) Only the very last scene counts...for this poll, as soon as they change scenery, it’s a different scene.
2) There must be two sisters (Prue, Piper and/or Phoebe) as part of the final scene. There can be more than two sisters and there can be other characters as part of the scene, but if at the end, there’s just one sister or no sister, the scene won't be part of this poll.
3) If the last scene starts with all three sisters together, but more than one leave before the end, leaving only one sister with another character as the ending, the scene does not count.
4) If anyone wants to redo this poll with different rules, GO FOR IT!
5) Even if the scene isn’t part of this poll, enjoy all of these memories!
DISCLAIMER: In all situations, these fan-written transcripts come from transcripts.foreverdreaming.org/viewtopic.php?t=6051 I’m bolding the name each time one of the sisters first appears in the scene or each time a sister leaves the scene so I can see if the scene counts.
Choice #1: 2x01: Witch Trial
[Scene: Manor. Attic. Prue, Piper and Phoebe are there. Prue places the Book of Shadows back on its stand.]
Prue: That's more like it.
(She flips through the Book.)
Piper: I'll feel better when we erase that window. I don't want any more demons coming through it.
Phoebe: They can't. It's our window, not theirs.
Piper: Still, better safe than sorry. Especially if we can expect any more demons like Abraxas coming.
(She goes over to the wall.)
Prue: Well, apparently we can. "Rite of Passage. Fight it with the Power of one, or else... a more powerful evil that awaits will destroy you".
Phoebe: Wow. I'm glad I didn't finish reading that yesterday. I might have changed my mind about not wanting to give up our powers.
Prue: No, you wouldn't have. You like being a witch too much, Phoebe. And you help remind me that I like being one too.
Phoebe: Hmm.
Piper: Hey, me three. Too bad it doesn't pay the bills, though. Phoebe: (to Prue) Did you get it?
Prue: Mm-hmm.
(They happily go over to Piper.)
Piper: Get what? (They hand Piper an envelope.) What's this? (She looks at it.) $60,000? Where did you get this?
Prue: Home equity loan. Phoebe and I took a second out on the house. To help you buy your club.
Phoebe: Actually, our club technically.
Prue: Right, as long as you don't mind being partners with your sisters.
Piper: Thank you!
(They all hug.)
Grams' Voice: The Power of Three.
(The pages turn on the Book of Shadows and Grams' spirit appears.)
Prue: Grams?
Grams: Hello, my darlings. Oh, it's nice to see you, or rather, it's nice being seen by you.
Piper: But-but-but how is this...
Grams: Possible? All things are possible, my dear. It's just simply a matter of your being able to do them.
Phoebe: Wait, so you're the one that keeps turning the pages in the book?
Grams: Just my way of looking after you. As best I can, anyway. Don't try to understand this. You're not ready yet. But the fact that you could hear me before, can see me now, means that someday you might be. Be good to each other. I love you.
(Grams disappears. The book turns to a page.)
Piper: Is it just me, or is this attic getting awfully crowded lately?
(They go over and look at the page.)
Prue: Look.
(Grams has written "Happy Anniversary, My Darlings" on the page.)
2x02: Morality Bites
[Scene: Manor. Foyer. Piper answers the door. It’s Leo.]
Piper: Hey, stranger.
(She grabs him and gives him a passionate kiss.)
Leo: I would of settled for a nice hello.
Piper: Didn't anyone tell you not to settle?
Leo: That's a good lesson.
Piper: I've been learning a lot of them lately.
Leo: So I've heard. Look, honestly, I didn't know you were gonna get sent to the future. I don't even know what happened when you got there. All I was told was apparently you had something to learn.
Piper: So, that's why you're here.
Leo: No. That's why you're here. You were given a glimpse of your future to learn a valuable lesson. And I'm glad you learned it too because I know they wouldn't of brought you back if you didn't. Speaking of which, they're making me work tonight, so I can't really...
Piper: This is always gonna be a problem for us, isn't it?
Leo: I'm willing to work on it.
Piper: Good. Because I'll never forget you said that.
(They kiss passionately.)
Choice #2: 2x03: The Painted World
(We see Phoebe and Prue talking... Dan comes there)
Dan: Hey Prue.
Prue: Hi. Dan: Phoebe...
Phoebe: Hey.
Dan: You got a minute?
Phoebe: Uh, yeah! Is it about Piper?
Dan: No, it's actually about Jenny's paper.
Phoebe: You know, I wasn't really myself that day. Is there a problem?
(Dan hands Phoebe the paper.)
Dan: No, it's not due til Friday. But I really appreciate your help...I think.
Phoebe: Uh... Yeah, okay.
(She hides the paper)
Dan: I'd really appreciate if Jenny could do her own work in her handwriting using her own smarts..if you know what I mean.
Phoebe: I certainly do!
(He laughs and leaves.)
Phoebe: All right... (to Prue) You don't wanna know.
Prue: Uh huh!
Phoebe: You know, this whole smart spell thing, it really just made me realize that there's a lot of cool information out there.
Prue: I agree.
Phoebe: And who knows? Maybe I'll go back to college, take some night classes. I'm a smart girl, I'll figure it out.
Prue: Yes, you will. Just don't lose that common sense. We may need it to save the day again.
(Piper comes in.)
Piper: What are we talking about?
Phoebe: Right now, the job that I will not be getting.
(She rips up the aptitude test.)
Piper: Smart move, Pheebs. Now, open your present.
Phoebe: Oh! Wait...you guys got me shoes and a purse?
Prue: Very smart looking, wouldn't say, Piper?
Piper: Pure genius, Prue.
Phoebe: Enough with that already.
(Prue grabs Jenny's paper.)
Prue: Okay, you wanna explain this?
Phoebe: Okay…Well, that's Piper…
Prue: Ooh, sure!
Phoebe: And that's Dan…
Prue: I see!
Piper: That's not funny.
2x04: The Devil’s Music
[Scene: Manor Foyer Piper answers the door. It’s Leo.]
(Piper answers the door.)
Leo: Hi.
Piper: Hi.
Leo: Uh, thanks. For everything.
Piper: Just doing my job. Do you wanna come in, sit down?
Leo: I'd love to...
Piper: But you can't. We got Jenny home safe. Dan doesn't know she was at the club. But are you sure she won't remember anything?
Leo: I took care of it with a little Hocus-Pocus.
Piper: So you erase memories now?
Leo: No, I make pain go away. When I can... sometimes, I can't, no matter how hard I try.
Piper: And Masselin's others victims?
Leo: They'll be fine. No memories of Masselin or Carlton.
Piper: Good.
Leo: Piper, did you mean what you said?
Piper: When?
Leo: Couple of months ago, when I almost died and you saved my life. I left and you said... that you loved me.
Piper: I thought you were gone.
Leo: Well, sometimes I linger... Did you mean it?
Piper: Yeah, I meant it... You...you linger?
Leo: What about now?
Piper: I still mean it.
Leo: But...
Piper: But we can't keep doing this. I can't keep doing this. I feel like all I do is wait around for you to show up and then when you do, it's just not...quite right.
Leo: Well, I'm just... I'm doing what I thought you wanted me to do, Piper. You're the one who didn't want me to clip my wings.
Piper: And you shouldn't. Not for me. But that doesn't make it any easier for us.
Leo: What are we gonna do?
Piper: I don't know, Leo.
(He hears THEIR jingle. So does she.)
Piper: Go. It's okay. I understand.
(He kisses her.)
Leo: I'll see you. (He orbs out.)
[Cut to outside manor. Piper sees Dan. He smiles at her and she smiles at him back.]
Choice #3: 2x05: She’s a Man, Baby, a Man!
[Scene: P3. Prue walks up to Piper and Phoebe, wearing a very sexy outfit.]
Phoebe: Oh… Well, well. And I thought the heat wave was over.
Piper: Yeah, Prue. You look hot.
Prue: I'm just grateful to be back in heels.
Phoebe: Let me see. Oh, yeah. You definitely have that walk down.
Prue: Well, we'll see if Alan agrees with that.
Phoebe: Alan? I thought you thought he wasn't interested.
Prue: Yeah, I was wrong. Just a little gender confusion.
Piper: Looks like you learned a few things about being a woman by being a man.
Prue: Actually, I did. I mean, we're different, which I'm glad about that. But we're also similar in many ways. You know, we all feel the same emotions. It's just that if we don't communicate honestly, then we read between the lines and tend to get everything screwed up.
Piper: And sometimes it's just up to us to open the door first...take a chance.
(They see Dan)
Prue: Oh, you finally called him, huh?
Piper: I got some good advice from the brother I never had. Excuse me.
Prue: You're welcome.
(Piper goes to meet Dan.)
Prue: So, what about you, Pheebs?
Phoebe: Me, uh? (She sees Owen) I actually have an appointment with a doctor I've been dying to see. I'm still running a little bit hot.
Prue: I see that. He winked at you.
(Phoebe goes to meet Owen. Cranberries starts to play.)
Piper: Glad you could make it.
Dan: Are you kidding? I'm just glad you called. Truth is I've been waiting to call you for some time now.
Piper: Really? I never would guess.
Dan: You wanna dance?
Piper: Sure.
(They join Phoebe and Owen and start to dance. Prue spots Alan) Prue: Alan, hey... Good to see you.
Alan: I'm glad you called back, Prue. I have to admit. I didn't think you would.
Prue: Well, I wasn't going to at first. But then I met this really nice guy who encouraged me to go ahead.
Alan: Yeah? Who is he? I wanna thank him.
Prue: Oh, no. I'll thank him... Cranberries!
Alan: Let's go.
(They join Piper and Dan and Phoebe and Owen. Then we see the girls dancing with their guys.)
2x06: That Old Black Magic
[Cut to Piper. Dan walks up to her.]
Piper: Hi.
Dan: Hi. After you.
(Piper sits down and then Dan does.)
Piper: Thanks for coming. I hope late, late dinner is okay with you.
Dan: Look, I'm gonna make this easier for you. I know that you and that handyman, Leon?
Piper: Leo.
Dan: Right, Leo. I know you guys were more than just friends. I'm not dumb. I mean, he's always around the house.
Piper: Dan, it's over. (Dan looks upset.) Oh, no, I don't mean you and me, I meant him and me. That's why I wanted to see you tonight. I didn't want there to be any more confusion.
Dan: Are you sure?
Piper: Yeah, I'm sure.
(They kiss.)
2x07: They’re Everywhere
[Scene: Hospital. A room. Phoebe's there putting magazines and flowers on a table. Eric enters.] Eric: Excuse me. I'm looking for a doctor Swinsley. I need him to sigh some insurance papers. I was told he would be in here.
Phoebe: Uh, yeah, he actually just took Mrs. Bruhn to the sun room. You could probably catch him there.
Eric: Great. Thanks. You're Phoebe, right? I'm Eric Bragg. I think I saw you the other day at the park.
Phoebe: Right, right, how's your father?
Eric: Oh, he's better, thanks. He's almost back to his old self. I remember, you were really sweet to him when he was in here. Not many people would’ve bothered. You must be an angel.
Phoebe: No, I'm no angel. But I could probably introduce you to one if you like.
(They smile.)
Eric: You know, I just realized I have no idea where the sun room is.
Phoebe: Uh, it's kind of complicated. Maybe I should draw you a map.
(They look at each other as though the word “map” rings a bell.)
2x08: P3 H20
[Scene: Manor. Living room. Phoebe's sticking Patty's letters in a photo album. Piper's sitting on the couch putting stuff on her poison ivy.]
Phoebe: At least fighting this demon came with a consolation prize. I mean, it didn't bring Mom back but these brought her closer.
Piper: It's a good idea, Pheebs. Making a journal out of Mom's letters.
Phoebe: Yeah, not as good as the real thing though.
Piper: Nothing is. (Leo orbs in near the kitchen. Piper sees him but Phoebe doesn't. He gestures with his head for her to go over there.) Um, tea. You want some tea? I'm gonna go get some.
Phoebe: Sure.
(Piper goes in the kitchen.)
Leo: I don't want to interrupt.
Piper: I think I can steep and talk at the same time. Do you want any?
Leo: It's just this, this whole situation, you know, Sam, your mom, those letters. He loved her. Like I love you.
Piper: Leo, we've been through this before. We both know how we feel, but there are things, people involved now.
Leo: Can you tell Dan the truth, Piper?
Piper: That's between him and me. You and I have a job to do and I thought that we agreed to try and put that first.
Leo: So did Sam and your mom. Look at the outcome.
Piper: You're leaving, aren't you? For good this time.
Leo: I don't know. But I do know we have to stop working together because I can't stop loving you. Which means I can't do my job.
Piper: And I can't do mine. I don't know how to say goodbye.
Leo: Don't. (He orbs out.
(Someone knocks on the back door. Piper opens it. Dan's standing there holding a tray with bowls of cereal on it.)
Piper: Dan, what are you doing at the back door?
Dan: Well, when I knock on the front door I never seem to make it over the threshold. Hungry? Are you okay?
Piper: I am just…I'm fine.
Dan: Are you sure? I mean, you can tell me.
Piper: I know, I'm just not very hungry.
Dan: Come on, give it a try. (He eats a Froot Loop.)
Piper: Okay, I'll give it a try.
2x09: Ms. Hellfire
[Scene: Manor. Living room. Phoebe and Piper are cleaning the windows.]
Phoebe: Dan did a really good job with these windows. He is obviously very good with his hands.
Piper: Hey, hands off those hands.
Phoebe: So, did you decide whether or not you're gonna move in with him?
Piper: I have to admit it's very tempting.
Phoebe: Yeah, well, you gotta do what you gotta do. And you deserve to be happy. And don't worry about us, we'll be fine. Especially if I get your room.
Piper: Yes, you could have my room. That is if I was moving out.
Phoebe: Oh, you're not gonna move out? Oh, that is so good because you need to be with your sisters just a little while longer.
Piper: I adore Dan but it's just way too soon for me to move in with him. There's just a few things I need to figure out first. Are you happy now?
Phoebe: I'm delirious. Thank you.
(Prue comes in. She's talking on the phone.)
Prue: Well, just tell Marcy that she can sell the ring and use the money to rebuild the bookstore. It's a thank you for protecting us. No, Darryl, the ring is not hot. I'll talk to you later. (She hangs up.)
Phoebe: So, what else did Hellfire get from Bane?
Prue: Diamond necklaces, bracelets, mahogany, a Salvador Dali.
Piper: You can't really keep all that stuff, can you?
Prue: No. (Piper shakes her head.) No. It wouldn't really be right but maybe I can figure out a way to use it for some good and save my job. And if not, I can always astral project and job hunt twice as fast.
Phoebe: Sure, just rub it in. I would love to be in two places at once.
Prue: As long as one of those places is fun, I'll be happy. I think I may have learned a few things from Ms. Hellfire. (The doorbell rings.) You know, change my routine, shake things up a little bit.
(Phoebe and Piper laugh. Prue goes and answers the door. It’s Jack.)
Jack: You know, Prue, it is bad enough that you don't answer your phone, come into the office or otherwise appear to be doing your job but now you're gonna take me down with you. What do you got to say for yourself?
Prue: $275,000.
Jack: Excuse me?
Prue: The market value of the anonymous estate donation I've been out acquiring. The one request is that all proceeds go to “Stop the Violence Foundation”. Not bad for a day’s worth of work now is it?
Jack: No, it certainly isn't. And you know, I never doubted you for a moment, partner.
Prue: Liar. Let's go celebrate, partner.
Jack: Okay.
Choice #4: 2x10: Heartbreak City
[Scene: Outside the movie theatre. Jack, Dan, Prue and Piper are there. They just saw "The Dirty Dozen".]
Dan: You gotta remember though the mission was successful. Bronson made it home.
Jack: Just in time to make “Death Wish”.
Prue: Oh, no.
Jack: You'll love it, I promise.
(Phoebe's walking behind them. Kevin walks up to Phoebe.)
Kevin: Sorry, Phoebe. I almost forgot to get our parking validated.
Phoebe: No problem, Kevin.
Kevin: Hey, I just wanted to say I'm really sorry that I cancelled on you the other day.
Phoebe: Love means never having to say you're sorry.
Kevin: What?
Phoebe: It's nothing. We saw "Love Story" here the other night and...never mind.
Kevin: I love that movie.
Phoebe: Really?
Kevin: Yeah.
Phoebe: Me too...now.
(They catch up to the others who are waiting for them.)
Prue: Hi.
Phoebe: Hello.
Jack: Let's grab some coffee. I am buying.
2x11: Reckless Abandon
[Scene: P3. Prue, Piper and Phoebe are at the bar.]
Phoebe: So how many kids do you think I'm going to have one day?
Prue: I'd say five.
Piper: More. At least six.
Phoebe: Ow. What makes you say that?
Piper: Oh, please Pheebs, you were born to be a mom.
Prue: No doubt about it.
Phoebe: Yeah, you think? I miss that little guy already. Although being a surrogate mom for the last twenty-four hours has taught me I have a long way to go before I'm ready for it full time. I gotta get my life together first.
Prue: Yeah, find a guy, maybe?
Phoebe: That might help, huh? Unlike Piper's guy who is like Mr. Mom.
Prue: Yeah, Dan was really great with Matthew, wasn't he?
Phoebe: More like a godsend.
Piper: Yeah, I think that's what scares me. He's like, flawless. He's great at everything. He's great looking, fun, he's great with babies.
Prue: But...
Piper: But I don't know. He's just a little too perfect. I feel a little imperfect around him.
Phoebe: Well, maybe that's why you were uncomfortable with Matthew. Maybe because of Dan you were resisting your own maternal instincts.
Prue: Where did that come from?
Phoebe: Cosmo, where else? Look over there - there's Jack.
Prue: Jack?
Phoebe: Yeah, Jack.
Piper: Jack who?
(Piper and Phoebe make noises at Prue. Prue walks over to Jack.)
Prue: Why aren't you in New York?
Jack: I didn't wanna go without my partner. I don't want you to think this gesture of mine is in any way of a sign of you involving maturity, in case having your cousin Matthew around given you any ideas.
Prue: No, the only idea I have is that one day, maybe sooner, maybe later, I'm gonna make a great mom. And you know, hopefully I'll find the right guy.
Jack: Well, I think you should know that being as I'm still a kid myself, I don't think I'd be doing anyone any favors by pretending to be the right guy.
Prue: Well, I didn't say I was looking for the right guy tonight. You'll do. Let's dance
(They walk on the dance floor and start dancing.)
2x12: Awakened
[Scene: P3. Piper gives a box of fruit to a guy.]
Piper: These haven't been inspected yet. Put them in the back. We're returning them to the supplier.
(She walks up to Prue and Phoebe.)
Phoebe: Looks like someone learnt their lesson.
Piper: Yeah, the hard way unfortunately.
Prue: Still, the club’s doing okay. Doesn't look like quarantine ruined business too much.
Piper: Thanks to no cover charge and free drinks. Have you guys seen Dan around?
Prue, Phoebe: No, why?
Piper: No reason, I guess. I thought he might stop by.
Phoebe: Uh, you know, Piper, Dan heard you call Leo's name when you were coming around at the hospital.
Piper: He did? That wasn't me thinking about Leo; that was just...
Phoebe: Him saving you, I know.
Prue: Still, how are you gonna explain that to Dan?
Phoebe: Well, at least you're alive to try. That's what's important.
Prue: Yeah, I mean, just because we're witches, doesn't mean we're above the laws of nature.
Phoebe: Or the Wiccan ones.
Piper: I know; you don't have to tell me twice. I'm not taking anything for granted anymore.
Prue: Ditto.
Phoebe: Yeah, Prue, welcome to the ranks of the unemployed. I'm proud of you. I think what you did was very brave.
Prue: Thank you. (Leo walks in.) Ooh, Piper. (She points to Leo.) Leo.
Phoebe: Tell him thanks for us too.
(Piper walks over to him.) Piper: Hey.
Leo: Hey. How are you feeling?
Piper: Okay. A little tired. Which is actually a good thing. Leo, thank you for everything you...
Leo: Couldn't let you die, Piper.
Piper: I'm very glad you couldn't. Did you get in trouble?
Leo: Yeah, actually, a lot. They found out what I did. They clipped my wings.
Piper: What?
Leo: It's not permanent. It's more like a suspension...I hope.
Piper: Leo, I-I-I don't know what to say.
Leo: You don't have to say anything. You didn't do anything, I did. I guess in the back of my mind, I always hoped someday, somehow you and I would get a second chance.
Piper: I'm with Dan now.
Leo: I know. But I also know now that I'm a mortal, I'm gonna fight for you. May the best man win.
2x12: Animal Pragmatism
[Scene: P3. Dan and Piper are sitting at the bar.]
Dan: You're not a beck and call kind of girl, I get that.
Piper: I have a job that takes time, a family that takes time and making you and me work is gonna take time. I need to know that you're willing to deal with it with me.
Dan: You know I am. As long as you realize who I am. Sometimes I get jealous. I wonder where you are, who you're with and that's me. You can't make me something I'm not. Work with me, yes, but change me. (He shakes his head.)
Piper: Relationships are hard work.
Dan: Especially on an empty stomach. Do you think we can talk about this over dinner?
Piper: Magic words. (They start walking towards the stairs.) Oh, I forgot my purse. I'll meet you outside.
(She walks in the alcove and picks up her purse. A card is sticking out of it. She starts reading it.)
Leo's voice: Piper, when we first met you thought I was just a handyman. Well, I'm just a handyman again. The sane guy you fell in love with. The same guy who fell in love with you. For who you are, not who I think you are. Remember that and know that I'm, not giving up.
(Piper and Leo look at each other from across the room. They start walking towards each other. They meet up and start kissing. Then you see her standing there in the alcove. It was only a daydream. She looks over at Leo, they smile and she walks outside.)
Choice #5: 2x14: Pardon My Past
[Cut to Phoebe's room. Phoebe is sitting on her bed with the Book of Shadows. Prue walks in.] Prue: Hey, you all right?
Phoebe: Yeah. I think so. I'm just writing a little warning in the book about Anton.
Prue: Why? You don't think that we actually vanquished him?
Phoebe: I don't want to take any chances. I just hope my future me is somewhere near this book if he ever strikes again.
Prue: Something tells me that we're always going to be near it. Always have been. Always will be.
Phoebe: Yeah. You're probably right. Of course the warning won't do much good if the future me turns out to be bad.
(Prue sits on the bed while saying this.)
Prue: It's not just you, you know. I mean, we all have a little bad in us. It's just that when you turn bad things tend to catch on fire.
(Phoebe laughs.)
Phoebe: And this is supposed to be making me feel better?
Prue: What I mean is that it's just as natural to be bad as it is to be good. That's how we know what good is. That's how we're able to make the choice to be good. Remember, Anton wouldn't have needed Evil Past Phoebe if you hadn't evolved into Good Phoebe.
Phoebe: Still, it's okay to be bad every once in a while, isn't it?
(Prue nods.)
Prue: Oh yeah. A lot.
(They laugh.)
Choice #6: 2x15: Give Me a Sign
[Cut to Phoebe and Piper sitting on a sofa.]
Phoebe: So who do you think is the Source that Litvack was talking about?
Piper: I don't want to know. And, boy, did we read Bane wrong.
Phoebe: Not surprising. We read *all* the signs wrong. Phoebe: Hey!
(Prue walks up.)
Prue: Hey!
Piper: How'd it go?
(Prue sits down.)
Prue: Um, well, the cops came and took him away a little while ago. So, everything's back as it should be.
Phoebe: Are you okay?
Prue: I'm fine. He thanked me for changing his life.
Phoebe: Wow! You must have been a really good…uh…(raises her eyebrows)
Piper: …influence on him.
Prue: (smiles) I'm sure the influence was mutual. So, umm how did you guys find me anyway?
Phoebe: Umm, I…uh…cast a little spell to help Piper find her love. It was supposed to help her decide between Dan and Leo, but it led us to you. Naked, I might add.
Piper: I want you to know I tried to stop her.
Phoebe: Yeah, and you probably would have too. If Prue wasn’t busy getting kidnapped.
Prue: Yeah. Umm…so, what was the outcome, Dan or Leo?
Piper: I never needed a sign to tell me where my heart lies.
(She looks at Leo, and smiles. He looks back at her and smiles also. Piper smiles back at Phoebe and Prue.)
2x16: Murphy’s Luck
[Cut to the foyer. Piper opens the door. It’s Leo.]
Piper: Leo, you rang the bell?
Leo: Yeah, I wasn't sure how you'd feel about me orbing in.
(Leo walks inside.)
Piper: I'd feel okay.
Leo: Look, I just wanted to let you know that this wasn't their idea. It was mine and it's-it's not something I wanted to do, it's just...
Piper: Leo, I meant what I said and I thought about this a lot. Whitelighter or not, we can find a way to make this work. Somehow, some way.
Leo: I'm gonna hold you to that.
Piper: You do that.
2x17: How to Make a Quilt Out of Americans
[Scene: P3. Piper and Dan are sitting on the couch in the corner of the room.]
Dan: You hungry?
Piper: Um, no, unless you are.
Dan: No, I'm fine. What?
Piper: I was thinking that it just seemed like yesterday you moved in next door and we... you know.
Dan: Piper, you don't have to do this.
Piper: Do what?
Dan: Go through this big explanation. I think I know what you wanted to talk to me about. You're breaking up with me aren't you? Is it because of Leo? I'm sorry. It's really none of my business.
Piper: Dan, I will always love you - this doesn't change that. You've been really good to me and treated me incredibly well but I need to try and make this work with Leo, and it may not; I don't know. We've never really given it a shot and I want to, I have to. I'm so sorry.
Dan: You don't have to be. You're just being honest with me. We're still gonna be neighbors though, right?
Piper: We better be more than that.
(Dan kisses her on the forehead.)
Dan: Well, I guess I better go.
(Dan grabs his coat and walks away.)
2x18: Chick Flick
(Prue and Piper walk in the living room. Prue sees Leo.) Hey, you.
(They sit down. Phoebe comes in.) Anyway, it all worked out.
(Phoebe sits on the same chair as Prue.)
Phoebe: Did you get to tell off the Demon of Crankiness again?
Prue: No, once was enough but my editor did love this shot that I chose of him. (She shows them the photo she took when he was on the stairs.) Said that it captured the real man. Speaking of, I will never see another horror movie again but I ran across this and thought...
(She gives Phoebe the video of "Kill It Before It Dies".)
Phoebe: Prue, oh, Prue. I love it, I love it. I'm gonna go watch it right now.
(She runs out of the living room and up the stairs.)
Piper: Should we worry?
Prue: I-I think she's just saying goodbye.
[Cut to Phoebe's room. She's lying on her bed watching the movie. She's miming the words they're saying in the movie.]
Note from Es: Oh, how I would love to include this ending in my poll! But like S1 where Prue closing the door is the ending I remember, Phoebe watching her movie is what I remember about this one, so I can’t. OH, I want someone to do a poll for our favorite just-plain ending so much…
Choice #7: 2x19: Ex Libris
[Scene: P3. The Goo Goo Dolls are playing. Phoebe walks up to Prue and Piper.]
Phoebe: Hey. Ask me how I did on my finals.
Prue: How did you do on your finals? Phoebe: Oh, thanks for asking. I aced it. They just posted the grades.
Prue: Yay, good for you.
Phoebe: Thanks, although I did get some perspective in the test. After what happened to Charlene, it just didn't seem important anymore. Um, speaking of perspective…(She holds up their dad's birthday card.)…I signed Dad's card.
Piper: Really?
Phoebe: Yes. Just in case he thinks of us too.
(Piper holds out the card for Prue.)
Prue: No, I definitely don't need to sign that. I mean, I realize that Dad is never gonna be the father that Cleavant is and I just need to accept that and stop thinking that magically somehow he'll change.
(Leo walks down the stairs.)
Piper: Excuse me. (She goes over to Leo.) How'd you get in? I thought Whitelighter pay sucked.
Leo: I, uh, sorta didn't tell the bouncer I don't work here anymore.
Piper: Hmm, imagine that. Like you sorta didn't tell me you were married.
Leo: Uh, look, Piper, I didn't tell you because I didn't want you to get upset. It was literally a different life for me, one that has nothing to do with this one, with us.
Piper: I know that and I'm not mad. But you can't not tell me stuff because you think it might hurt. If we're gonna have a normal relationship, at least as normal as possible, then you need to be honest with me.
Leo: You're right. Sorry. Forgive me?
Piper: I'll think about it.
(They smile.)
Leo: So, uh, how much do you think Dan really knows?
Piper: I don't know. We'll worry about it later.
(They join Prue and Phoebe and watch the Goo Goo Dolls play.)
2x20: Astral Monkey
[Scene: Manor. Living room. Prue’s watching Phoebe put their files in the fireplace.]
Phoebe: Bye, bye, files.
Prue: Well, at least everything's back to normal... (she looks over at the monkeys who are sitting on the couch eating stuff out of a bowl.) for us.
Phoebe: At least we're safe.
Prue: Yeah, what about them?
Phoebe: Oh, they'll be safe tomorrow when I drop them off at the wildlife conservatory. Hey, watch this. You guys, what do you think of evil? (One monkey covers its eyes, the other puts his fingers in its ears and the other covers its mouth. Prue and Phoebe laugh.)
Prue: You're gonna miss them aren't you?
Phoebe: Yeah.
(Piper walks in holding her files.)
Prue: Hey, we've been wondering where you've been.
Phoebe: Oh, you know what? I have something for you. (She gets a piece of paper out of her pocket and hands it to Piper.)
Piper: What is this?
Phoebe: Uh, ground rules for me.
(Piper reads the note.)
Piper: "I want a man who hates my brand of cereal so there'll always be some for me. A man who's love will catch me by surprise." What is this?
Phoebe: It's a wish list. I hope I find someone as great as Leo. You deserve the best and I think you found it.
Piper: So you guys don't mind of he's hanging around a lot?
Prue: We just want you to be happy, honey. (Piper walks over to the fireplace and puts her files in.) Piper.
Phoebe: Are you okay?
Piper: His name was Curtis.
Phoebe: Whose name was Curtis?
Piper: Dr. Williamson. I read it in his medical bio. His first name was Curtis. He never married because he was working all the time. Saving lives was more important to him than having a life of his own. Now his life is over and I can't help but feel responsible for that.
Phoebe: We tried to save him.
Piper: But we didn't.
Prue: Because we couldn't.
Piper: I couldn't.
(She leaves the room.)
Phoebe: Should we, uh...?
Prue: No, not this time.
[Cut to Piper's room. She walks in and closes the door. She sits on her bed and starts crying. Leo orbs in and sits down next to her. He puts his arm around her and pulls her close to him.]
Choice #8: 2x21: Apocalypse, Not
[Scene: P3. Prue, Piper and Phoebe are sitting in the alcove. They're watching everyone dance.]
Phoebe: Look at them. They'll all live to dance another day and what do we get? We saved the whole darn world. The least we can get is a thank you, you know.
(Leo comes up to them.)
Leo: Ladies.
Phoebe: Hey, Leo.
Leo: I know this has been hard on all of you.
Phoebe: Yeah, well, we sort of made it hard on you too.
Piper: Leo, it's just...
Leo: It's okay, Piper. We were doing our job.
Phoebe: Okay, the master of understatement, is there anything else?
Leo: No, I was just at a meeting and they told me that it was your act of complete selflessness that stopped the Source's plan from going forward.
Prue: So the Four Horsemen were destroyed because Piper and Phoebe were willing to sacrifice me?
Leo: The Horsemen's bosses said that it was a sign that there were still too much good in the world to make the apocalypse successful.
Piper: So are they giving up?
Leo: No, in fact they'll probably try harder from now on.
Phoebe: Do you wanna have a drink with us Leo?
Leo: No, you need time together. Just you three. I'll see you. (He leaves.)
Prue: You know, you two faced an incredibly hard thing and, um, you made the right decision. Through your own free will.
Phoebe: I am so, so, so sorry, Prue.
Piper: So am I.
Prue: There's no apologies necessary. You were all just doing our jobs. I just have to deal with that.
(The bartender comes up to them holding Phoebe's book.)
Bartender: Everyone has to vote on this. What if a building was on fire? Do you save five strangers or one sibling?
Prue, Piper, Phoebe: Five strangers.
2x22: Be Careful What You Witch For
[Piper walks back inside and Leo, Phoebe and Prue are standing in the foyer.)
Prue: Well, that was an interesting couple of days.
Phoebe: Interesting couple of years.
(The Elders call Leo.)
Leo: They're calling me, I've gotta go.
Piper: Not so fast. If we're ever gonna make this work I think I deserve to know a little bit more about you, don't you think?
Leo: What do you mean?
Piper: I mean, I'm going with you, Leo. I'd like to meet 'them'.
Leo: Are you sure?
Piper: Positive. (she puts her arms around him.) Take me to your leader.
Phoebe: Uh, Piper? Wh-wh-whatta?
Piper: Don't worry; I'll be back.
(They orb out.)
Phoebe: Worried? I'm not worried. I mean, of course they'll be back, right?
Prue: Of course. I mean why would we worry?
(Prue and Phoebe look at each other, obviously worried. Phoebe walks away. Prue looks at the door, raises her hand and uses her power to close it.)
Note from Es: Like S1, the last scene is Prue closing the door…
SEASON TWO SUMMARY, using my rules:
Endings with at least two sisters: 9
Endings with all three sisters: 8
Endings with two sisters: 1
Endings with one sister: 13 (MORE than half!)
Ending with no sister: 0
Endings with just Prue and Piper: 0
Endings with just Prue and Phoebe: 2
Endings with just Piper and Phoebe: 0
Endings with just Prue and Jack: 2
Endings with just Piper and Leo: 4
Endings with just Piper and Dan: 4
Endings with just Phoebe and Eric: 1
Endings with just Prue: 3
Endings with just Piper: 0
Endings with just Phoebe: 2
No doubt the triangle was the big thing this season, although also sister with a guy. So often there was a beautiful sister scene followed by a sister-with-a-guy scene and that one is what would linger. *sigh*
RULES:
1) Only the very last scene counts...for this poll, as soon as they change scenery, it’s a different scene.
2) There must be two sisters (Prue, Piper and/or Phoebe) as part of the final scene. There can be more than two sisters and there can be other characters as part of the scene, but if at the end, there’s just one sister or no sister, the scene won't be part of this poll.
3) If the last scene starts with all three sisters together, but more than one leave before the end, leaving only one sister with another character as the ending, the scene does not count.
4) If anyone wants to redo this poll with different rules, GO FOR IT!
5) Even if the scene isn’t part of this poll, enjoy all of these memories!
DISCLAIMER: In all situations, these fan-written transcripts come from transcripts.foreverdreaming.org/viewtopic.php?t=6051 I’m bolding the name each time one of the sisters first appears in the scene or each time a sister leaves the scene so I can see if the scene counts.
CHARMED: SEASON TWO FINAL SCENES
Choice #1: 2x01: Witch Trial
[Scene: Manor. Attic. Prue, Piper and Phoebe are there. Prue places the Book of Shadows back on its stand.]
Prue: That's more like it.
(She flips through the Book.)
Piper: I'll feel better when we erase that window. I don't want any more demons coming through it.
Phoebe: They can't. It's our window, not theirs.
Piper: Still, better safe than sorry. Especially if we can expect any more demons like Abraxas coming.
(She goes over to the wall.)
Prue: Well, apparently we can. "Rite of Passage. Fight it with the Power of one, or else... a more powerful evil that awaits will destroy you".
Phoebe: Wow. I'm glad I didn't finish reading that yesterday. I might have changed my mind about not wanting to give up our powers.
Prue: No, you wouldn't have. You like being a witch too much, Phoebe. And you help remind me that I like being one too.
Phoebe: Hmm.
Piper: Hey, me three. Too bad it doesn't pay the bills, though. Phoebe: (to Prue) Did you get it?
Prue: Mm-hmm.
(They happily go over to Piper.)
Piper: Get what? (They hand Piper an envelope.) What's this? (She looks at it.) $60,000? Where did you get this?
Prue: Home equity loan. Phoebe and I took a second out on the house. To help you buy your club.
Phoebe: Actually, our club technically.
Prue: Right, as long as you don't mind being partners with your sisters.
Piper: Thank you!
(They all hug.)
Grams' Voice: The Power of Three.
(The pages turn on the Book of Shadows and Grams' spirit appears.)
Prue: Grams?
Grams: Hello, my darlings. Oh, it's nice to see you, or rather, it's nice being seen by you.
Piper: But-but-but how is this...
Grams: Possible? All things are possible, my dear. It's just simply a matter of your being able to do them.
Phoebe: Wait, so you're the one that keeps turning the pages in the book?
Grams: Just my way of looking after you. As best I can, anyway. Don't try to understand this. You're not ready yet. But the fact that you could hear me before, can see me now, means that someday you might be. Be good to each other. I love you.
(Grams disappears. The book turns to a page.)
Piper: Is it just me, or is this attic getting awfully crowded lately?
(They go over and look at the page.)
Prue: Look.
(Grams has written "Happy Anniversary, My Darlings" on the page.)
2x02: Morality Bites
[Scene: Manor. Foyer. Piper answers the door. It’s Leo.]
Piper: Hey, stranger.
(She grabs him and gives him a passionate kiss.)
Leo: I would of settled for a nice hello.
Piper: Didn't anyone tell you not to settle?
Leo: That's a good lesson.
Piper: I've been learning a lot of them lately.
Leo: So I've heard. Look, honestly, I didn't know you were gonna get sent to the future. I don't even know what happened when you got there. All I was told was apparently you had something to learn.
Piper: So, that's why you're here.
Leo: No. That's why you're here. You were given a glimpse of your future to learn a valuable lesson. And I'm glad you learned it too because I know they wouldn't of brought you back if you didn't. Speaking of which, they're making me work tonight, so I can't really...
Piper: This is always gonna be a problem for us, isn't it?
Leo: I'm willing to work on it.
Piper: Good. Because I'll never forget you said that.
(They kiss passionately.)
Choice #2: 2x03: The Painted World
(We see Phoebe and Prue talking... Dan comes there)
Dan: Hey Prue.
Prue: Hi. Dan: Phoebe...
Phoebe: Hey.
Dan: You got a minute?
Phoebe: Uh, yeah! Is it about Piper?
Dan: No, it's actually about Jenny's paper.
Phoebe: You know, I wasn't really myself that day. Is there a problem?
(Dan hands Phoebe the paper.)
Dan: No, it's not due til Friday. But I really appreciate your help...I think.
Phoebe: Uh... Yeah, okay.
(She hides the paper)
Dan: I'd really appreciate if Jenny could do her own work in her handwriting using her own smarts..if you know what I mean.
Phoebe: I certainly do!
(He laughs and leaves.)
Phoebe: All right... (to Prue) You don't wanna know.
Prue: Uh huh!
Phoebe: You know, this whole smart spell thing, it really just made me realize that there's a lot of cool information out there.
Prue: I agree.
Phoebe: And who knows? Maybe I'll go back to college, take some night classes. I'm a smart girl, I'll figure it out.
Prue: Yes, you will. Just don't lose that common sense. We may need it to save the day again.
(Piper comes in.)
Piper: What are we talking about?
Phoebe: Right now, the job that I will not be getting.
(She rips up the aptitude test.)
Piper: Smart move, Pheebs. Now, open your present.
Phoebe: Oh! Wait...you guys got me shoes and a purse?
Prue: Very smart looking, wouldn't say, Piper?
Piper: Pure genius, Prue.
Phoebe: Enough with that already.
(Prue grabs Jenny's paper.)
Prue: Okay, you wanna explain this?
Phoebe: Okay…Well, that's Piper…
Prue: Ooh, sure!
Phoebe: And that's Dan…
Prue: I see!
Piper: That's not funny.
2x04: The Devil’s Music
[Scene: Manor Foyer Piper answers the door. It’s Leo.]
(Piper answers the door.)
Leo: Hi.
Piper: Hi.
Leo: Uh, thanks. For everything.
Piper: Just doing my job. Do you wanna come in, sit down?
Leo: I'd love to...
Piper: But you can't. We got Jenny home safe. Dan doesn't know she was at the club. But are you sure she won't remember anything?
Leo: I took care of it with a little Hocus-Pocus.
Piper: So you erase memories now?
Leo: No, I make pain go away. When I can... sometimes, I can't, no matter how hard I try.
Piper: And Masselin's others victims?
Leo: They'll be fine. No memories of Masselin or Carlton.
Piper: Good.
Leo: Piper, did you mean what you said?
Piper: When?
Leo: Couple of months ago, when I almost died and you saved my life. I left and you said... that you loved me.
Piper: I thought you were gone.
Leo: Well, sometimes I linger... Did you mean it?
Piper: Yeah, I meant it... You...you linger?
Leo: What about now?
Piper: I still mean it.
Leo: But...
Piper: But we can't keep doing this. I can't keep doing this. I feel like all I do is wait around for you to show up and then when you do, it's just not...quite right.
Leo: Well, I'm just... I'm doing what I thought you wanted me to do, Piper. You're the one who didn't want me to clip my wings.
Piper: And you shouldn't. Not for me. But that doesn't make it any easier for us.
Leo: What are we gonna do?
Piper: I don't know, Leo.
(He hears THEIR jingle. So does she.)
Piper: Go. It's okay. I understand.
(He kisses her.)
Leo: I'll see you. (He orbs out.)
[Cut to outside manor. Piper sees Dan. He smiles at her and she smiles at him back.]
Choice #3: 2x05: She’s a Man, Baby, a Man!
[Scene: P3. Prue walks up to Piper and Phoebe, wearing a very sexy outfit.]
Phoebe: Oh… Well, well. And I thought the heat wave was over.
Piper: Yeah, Prue. You look hot.
Prue: I'm just grateful to be back in heels.
Phoebe: Let me see. Oh, yeah. You definitely have that walk down.
Prue: Well, we'll see if Alan agrees with that.
Phoebe: Alan? I thought you thought he wasn't interested.
Prue: Yeah, I was wrong. Just a little gender confusion.
Piper: Looks like you learned a few things about being a woman by being a man.
Prue: Actually, I did. I mean, we're different, which I'm glad about that. But we're also similar in many ways. You know, we all feel the same emotions. It's just that if we don't communicate honestly, then we read between the lines and tend to get everything screwed up.
Piper: And sometimes it's just up to us to open the door first...take a chance.
(They see Dan)
Prue: Oh, you finally called him, huh?
Piper: I got some good advice from the brother I never had. Excuse me.
Prue: You're welcome.
(Piper goes to meet Dan.)
Prue: So, what about you, Pheebs?
Phoebe: Me, uh? (She sees Owen) I actually have an appointment with a doctor I've been dying to see. I'm still running a little bit hot.
Prue: I see that. He winked at you.
(Phoebe goes to meet Owen. Cranberries starts to play.)
Piper: Glad you could make it.
Dan: Are you kidding? I'm just glad you called. Truth is I've been waiting to call you for some time now.
Piper: Really? I never would guess.
Dan: You wanna dance?
Piper: Sure.
(They join Phoebe and Owen and start to dance. Prue spots Alan) Prue: Alan, hey... Good to see you.
Alan: I'm glad you called back, Prue. I have to admit. I didn't think you would.
Prue: Well, I wasn't going to at first. But then I met this really nice guy who encouraged me to go ahead.
Alan: Yeah? Who is he? I wanna thank him.
Prue: Oh, no. I'll thank him... Cranberries!
Alan: Let's go.
(They join Piper and Dan and Phoebe and Owen. Then we see the girls dancing with their guys.)
2x06: That Old Black Magic
[Cut to Piper. Dan walks up to her.]
Piper: Hi.
Dan: Hi. After you.
(Piper sits down and then Dan does.)
Piper: Thanks for coming. I hope late, late dinner is okay with you.
Dan: Look, I'm gonna make this easier for you. I know that you and that handyman, Leon?
Piper: Leo.
Dan: Right, Leo. I know you guys were more than just friends. I'm not dumb. I mean, he's always around the house.
Piper: Dan, it's over. (Dan looks upset.) Oh, no, I don't mean you and me, I meant him and me. That's why I wanted to see you tonight. I didn't want there to be any more confusion.
Dan: Are you sure?
Piper: Yeah, I'm sure.
(They kiss.)
2x07: They’re Everywhere
[Scene: Hospital. A room. Phoebe's there putting magazines and flowers on a table. Eric enters.] Eric: Excuse me. I'm looking for a doctor Swinsley. I need him to sigh some insurance papers. I was told he would be in here.
Phoebe: Uh, yeah, he actually just took Mrs. Bruhn to the sun room. You could probably catch him there.
Eric: Great. Thanks. You're Phoebe, right? I'm Eric Bragg. I think I saw you the other day at the park.
Phoebe: Right, right, how's your father?
Eric: Oh, he's better, thanks. He's almost back to his old self. I remember, you were really sweet to him when he was in here. Not many people would’ve bothered. You must be an angel.
Phoebe: No, I'm no angel. But I could probably introduce you to one if you like.
(They smile.)
Eric: You know, I just realized I have no idea where the sun room is.
Phoebe: Uh, it's kind of complicated. Maybe I should draw you a map.
(They look at each other as though the word “map” rings a bell.)
2x08: P3 H20
[Scene: Manor. Living room. Phoebe's sticking Patty's letters in a photo album. Piper's sitting on the couch putting stuff on her poison ivy.]
Phoebe: At least fighting this demon came with a consolation prize. I mean, it didn't bring Mom back but these brought her closer.
Piper: It's a good idea, Pheebs. Making a journal out of Mom's letters.
Phoebe: Yeah, not as good as the real thing though.
Piper: Nothing is. (Leo orbs in near the kitchen. Piper sees him but Phoebe doesn't. He gestures with his head for her to go over there.) Um, tea. You want some tea? I'm gonna go get some.
Phoebe: Sure.
(Piper goes in the kitchen.)
Leo: I don't want to interrupt.
Piper: I think I can steep and talk at the same time. Do you want any?
Leo: It's just this, this whole situation, you know, Sam, your mom, those letters. He loved her. Like I love you.
Piper: Leo, we've been through this before. We both know how we feel, but there are things, people involved now.
Leo: Can you tell Dan the truth, Piper?
Piper: That's between him and me. You and I have a job to do and I thought that we agreed to try and put that first.
Leo: So did Sam and your mom. Look at the outcome.
Piper: You're leaving, aren't you? For good this time.
Leo: I don't know. But I do know we have to stop working together because I can't stop loving you. Which means I can't do my job.
Piper: And I can't do mine. I don't know how to say goodbye.
Leo: Don't. (He orbs out.
(Someone knocks on the back door. Piper opens it. Dan's standing there holding a tray with bowls of cereal on it.)
Piper: Dan, what are you doing at the back door?
Dan: Well, when I knock on the front door I never seem to make it over the threshold. Hungry? Are you okay?
Piper: I am just…I'm fine.
Dan: Are you sure? I mean, you can tell me.
Piper: I know, I'm just not very hungry.
Dan: Come on, give it a try. (He eats a Froot Loop.)
Piper: Okay, I'll give it a try.
2x09: Ms. Hellfire
[Scene: Manor. Living room. Phoebe and Piper are cleaning the windows.]
Phoebe: Dan did a really good job with these windows. He is obviously very good with his hands.
Piper: Hey, hands off those hands.
Phoebe: So, did you decide whether or not you're gonna move in with him?
Piper: I have to admit it's very tempting.
Phoebe: Yeah, well, you gotta do what you gotta do. And you deserve to be happy. And don't worry about us, we'll be fine. Especially if I get your room.
Piper: Yes, you could have my room. That is if I was moving out.
Phoebe: Oh, you're not gonna move out? Oh, that is so good because you need to be with your sisters just a little while longer.
Piper: I adore Dan but it's just way too soon for me to move in with him. There's just a few things I need to figure out first. Are you happy now?
Phoebe: I'm delirious. Thank you.
(Prue comes in. She's talking on the phone.)
Prue: Well, just tell Marcy that she can sell the ring and use the money to rebuild the bookstore. It's a thank you for protecting us. No, Darryl, the ring is not hot. I'll talk to you later. (She hangs up.)
Phoebe: So, what else did Hellfire get from Bane?
Prue: Diamond necklaces, bracelets, mahogany, a Salvador Dali.
Piper: You can't really keep all that stuff, can you?
Prue: No. (Piper shakes her head.) No. It wouldn't really be right but maybe I can figure out a way to use it for some good and save my job. And if not, I can always astral project and job hunt twice as fast.
Phoebe: Sure, just rub it in. I would love to be in two places at once.
Prue: As long as one of those places is fun, I'll be happy. I think I may have learned a few things from Ms. Hellfire. (The doorbell rings.) You know, change my routine, shake things up a little bit.
(Phoebe and Piper laugh. Prue goes and answers the door. It’s Jack.)
Jack: You know, Prue, it is bad enough that you don't answer your phone, come into the office or otherwise appear to be doing your job but now you're gonna take me down with you. What do you got to say for yourself?
Prue: $275,000.
Jack: Excuse me?
Prue: The market value of the anonymous estate donation I've been out acquiring. The one request is that all proceeds go to “Stop the Violence Foundation”. Not bad for a day’s worth of work now is it?
Jack: No, it certainly isn't. And you know, I never doubted you for a moment, partner.
Prue: Liar. Let's go celebrate, partner.
Jack: Okay.
Choice #4: 2x10: Heartbreak City
[Scene: Outside the movie theatre. Jack, Dan, Prue and Piper are there. They just saw "The Dirty Dozen".]
Dan: You gotta remember though the mission was successful. Bronson made it home.
Jack: Just in time to make “Death Wish”.
Prue: Oh, no.
Jack: You'll love it, I promise.
(Phoebe's walking behind them. Kevin walks up to Phoebe.)
Kevin: Sorry, Phoebe. I almost forgot to get our parking validated.
Phoebe: No problem, Kevin.
Kevin: Hey, I just wanted to say I'm really sorry that I cancelled on you the other day.
Phoebe: Love means never having to say you're sorry.
Kevin: What?
Phoebe: It's nothing. We saw "Love Story" here the other night and...never mind.
Kevin: I love that movie.
Phoebe: Really?
Kevin: Yeah.
Phoebe: Me too...now.
(They catch up to the others who are waiting for them.)
Prue: Hi.
Phoebe: Hello.
Jack: Let's grab some coffee. I am buying.
2x11: Reckless Abandon
[Scene: P3. Prue, Piper and Phoebe are at the bar.]
Phoebe: So how many kids do you think I'm going to have one day?
Prue: I'd say five.
Piper: More. At least six.
Phoebe: Ow. What makes you say that?
Piper: Oh, please Pheebs, you were born to be a mom.
Prue: No doubt about it.
Phoebe: Yeah, you think? I miss that little guy already. Although being a surrogate mom for the last twenty-four hours has taught me I have a long way to go before I'm ready for it full time. I gotta get my life together first.
Prue: Yeah, find a guy, maybe?
Phoebe: That might help, huh? Unlike Piper's guy who is like Mr. Mom.
Prue: Yeah, Dan was really great with Matthew, wasn't he?
Phoebe: More like a godsend.
Piper: Yeah, I think that's what scares me. He's like, flawless. He's great at everything. He's great looking, fun, he's great with babies.
Prue: But...
Piper: But I don't know. He's just a little too perfect. I feel a little imperfect around him.
Phoebe: Well, maybe that's why you were uncomfortable with Matthew. Maybe because of Dan you were resisting your own maternal instincts.
Prue: Where did that come from?
Phoebe: Cosmo, where else? Look over there - there's Jack.
Prue: Jack?
Phoebe: Yeah, Jack.
Piper: Jack who?
(Piper and Phoebe make noises at Prue. Prue walks over to Jack.)
Prue: Why aren't you in New York?
Jack: I didn't wanna go without my partner. I don't want you to think this gesture of mine is in any way of a sign of you involving maturity, in case having your cousin Matthew around given you any ideas.
Prue: No, the only idea I have is that one day, maybe sooner, maybe later, I'm gonna make a great mom. And you know, hopefully I'll find the right guy.
Jack: Well, I think you should know that being as I'm still a kid myself, I don't think I'd be doing anyone any favors by pretending to be the right guy.
Prue: Well, I didn't say I was looking for the right guy tonight. You'll do. Let's dance
(They walk on the dance floor and start dancing.)
2x12: Awakened
[Scene: P3. Piper gives a box of fruit to a guy.]
Piper: These haven't been inspected yet. Put them in the back. We're returning them to the supplier.
(She walks up to Prue and Phoebe.)
Phoebe: Looks like someone learnt their lesson.
Piper: Yeah, the hard way unfortunately.
Prue: Still, the club’s doing okay. Doesn't look like quarantine ruined business too much.
Piper: Thanks to no cover charge and free drinks. Have you guys seen Dan around?
Prue, Phoebe: No, why?
Piper: No reason, I guess. I thought he might stop by.
Phoebe: Uh, you know, Piper, Dan heard you call Leo's name when you were coming around at the hospital.
Piper: He did? That wasn't me thinking about Leo; that was just...
Phoebe: Him saving you, I know.
Prue: Still, how are you gonna explain that to Dan?
Phoebe: Well, at least you're alive to try. That's what's important.
Prue: Yeah, I mean, just because we're witches, doesn't mean we're above the laws of nature.
Phoebe: Or the Wiccan ones.
Piper: I know; you don't have to tell me twice. I'm not taking anything for granted anymore.
Prue: Ditto.
Phoebe: Yeah, Prue, welcome to the ranks of the unemployed. I'm proud of you. I think what you did was very brave.
Prue: Thank you. (Leo walks in.) Ooh, Piper. (She points to Leo.) Leo.
Phoebe: Tell him thanks for us too.
(Piper walks over to him.) Piper: Hey.
Leo: Hey. How are you feeling?
Piper: Okay. A little tired. Which is actually a good thing. Leo, thank you for everything you...
Leo: Couldn't let you die, Piper.
Piper: I'm very glad you couldn't. Did you get in trouble?
Leo: Yeah, actually, a lot. They found out what I did. They clipped my wings.
Piper: What?
Leo: It's not permanent. It's more like a suspension...I hope.
Piper: Leo, I-I-I don't know what to say.
Leo: You don't have to say anything. You didn't do anything, I did. I guess in the back of my mind, I always hoped someday, somehow you and I would get a second chance.
Piper: I'm with Dan now.
Leo: I know. But I also know now that I'm a mortal, I'm gonna fight for you. May the best man win.
2x12: Animal Pragmatism
[Scene: P3. Dan and Piper are sitting at the bar.]
Dan: You're not a beck and call kind of girl, I get that.
Piper: I have a job that takes time, a family that takes time and making you and me work is gonna take time. I need to know that you're willing to deal with it with me.
Dan: You know I am. As long as you realize who I am. Sometimes I get jealous. I wonder where you are, who you're with and that's me. You can't make me something I'm not. Work with me, yes, but change me. (He shakes his head.)
Piper: Relationships are hard work.
Dan: Especially on an empty stomach. Do you think we can talk about this over dinner?
Piper: Magic words. (They start walking towards the stairs.) Oh, I forgot my purse. I'll meet you outside.
(She walks in the alcove and picks up her purse. A card is sticking out of it. She starts reading it.)
Leo's voice: Piper, when we first met you thought I was just a handyman. Well, I'm just a handyman again. The sane guy you fell in love with. The same guy who fell in love with you. For who you are, not who I think you are. Remember that and know that I'm, not giving up.
(Piper and Leo look at each other from across the room. They start walking towards each other. They meet up and start kissing. Then you see her standing there in the alcove. It was only a daydream. She looks over at Leo, they smile and she walks outside.)
Choice #5: 2x14: Pardon My Past
[Cut to Phoebe's room. Phoebe is sitting on her bed with the Book of Shadows. Prue walks in.] Prue: Hey, you all right?
Phoebe: Yeah. I think so. I'm just writing a little warning in the book about Anton.
Prue: Why? You don't think that we actually vanquished him?
Phoebe: I don't want to take any chances. I just hope my future me is somewhere near this book if he ever strikes again.
Prue: Something tells me that we're always going to be near it. Always have been. Always will be.
Phoebe: Yeah. You're probably right. Of course the warning won't do much good if the future me turns out to be bad.
(Prue sits on the bed while saying this.)
Prue: It's not just you, you know. I mean, we all have a little bad in us. It's just that when you turn bad things tend to catch on fire.
(Phoebe laughs.)
Phoebe: And this is supposed to be making me feel better?
Prue: What I mean is that it's just as natural to be bad as it is to be good. That's how we know what good is. That's how we're able to make the choice to be good. Remember, Anton wouldn't have needed Evil Past Phoebe if you hadn't evolved into Good Phoebe.
Phoebe: Still, it's okay to be bad every once in a while, isn't it?
(Prue nods.)
Prue: Oh yeah. A lot.
(They laugh.)
Choice #6: 2x15: Give Me a Sign
[Cut to Phoebe and Piper sitting on a sofa.]
Phoebe: So who do you think is the Source that Litvack was talking about?
Piper: I don't want to know. And, boy, did we read Bane wrong.
Phoebe: Not surprising. We read *all* the signs wrong. Phoebe: Hey!
(Prue walks up.)
Prue: Hey!
Piper: How'd it go?
(Prue sits down.)
Prue: Um, well, the cops came and took him away a little while ago. So, everything's back as it should be.
Phoebe: Are you okay?
Prue: I'm fine. He thanked me for changing his life.
Phoebe: Wow! You must have been a really good…uh…(raises her eyebrows)
Piper: …influence on him.
Prue: (smiles) I'm sure the influence was mutual. So, umm how did you guys find me anyway?
Phoebe: Umm, I…uh…cast a little spell to help Piper find her love. It was supposed to help her decide between Dan and Leo, but it led us to you. Naked, I might add.
Piper: I want you to know I tried to stop her.
Phoebe: Yeah, and you probably would have too. If Prue wasn’t busy getting kidnapped.
Prue: Yeah. Umm…so, what was the outcome, Dan or Leo?
Piper: I never needed a sign to tell me where my heart lies.
(She looks at Leo, and smiles. He looks back at her and smiles also. Piper smiles back at Phoebe and Prue.)
2x16: Murphy’s Luck
[Cut to the foyer. Piper opens the door. It’s Leo.]
Piper: Leo, you rang the bell?
Leo: Yeah, I wasn't sure how you'd feel about me orbing in.
(Leo walks inside.)
Piper: I'd feel okay.
Leo: Look, I just wanted to let you know that this wasn't their idea. It was mine and it's-it's not something I wanted to do, it's just...
Piper: Leo, I meant what I said and I thought about this a lot. Whitelighter or not, we can find a way to make this work. Somehow, some way.
Leo: I'm gonna hold you to that.
Piper: You do that.
2x17: How to Make a Quilt Out of Americans
[Scene: P3. Piper and Dan are sitting on the couch in the corner of the room.]
Dan: You hungry?
Piper: Um, no, unless you are.
Dan: No, I'm fine. What?
Piper: I was thinking that it just seemed like yesterday you moved in next door and we... you know.
Dan: Piper, you don't have to do this.
Piper: Do what?
Dan: Go through this big explanation. I think I know what you wanted to talk to me about. You're breaking up with me aren't you? Is it because of Leo? I'm sorry. It's really none of my business.
Piper: Dan, I will always love you - this doesn't change that. You've been really good to me and treated me incredibly well but I need to try and make this work with Leo, and it may not; I don't know. We've never really given it a shot and I want to, I have to. I'm so sorry.
Dan: You don't have to be. You're just being honest with me. We're still gonna be neighbors though, right?
Piper: We better be more than that.
(Dan kisses her on the forehead.)
Dan: Well, I guess I better go.
(Dan grabs his coat and walks away.)
2x18: Chick Flick
(Prue and Piper walk in the living room. Prue sees Leo.) Hey, you.
(They sit down. Phoebe comes in.) Anyway, it all worked out.
(Phoebe sits on the same chair as Prue.)
Phoebe: Did you get to tell off the Demon of Crankiness again?
Prue: No, once was enough but my editor did love this shot that I chose of him. (She shows them the photo she took when he was on the stairs.) Said that it captured the real man. Speaking of, I will never see another horror movie again but I ran across this and thought...
(She gives Phoebe the video of "Kill It Before It Dies".)
Phoebe: Prue, oh, Prue. I love it, I love it. I'm gonna go watch it right now.
(She runs out of the living room and up the stairs.)
Piper: Should we worry?
Prue: I-I think she's just saying goodbye.
[Cut to Phoebe's room. She's lying on her bed watching the movie. She's miming the words they're saying in the movie.]
Note from Es: Oh, how I would love to include this ending in my poll! But like S1 where Prue closing the door is the ending I remember, Phoebe watching her movie is what I remember about this one, so I can’t. OH, I want someone to do a poll for our favorite just-plain ending so much…
Choice #7: 2x19: Ex Libris
[Scene: P3. The Goo Goo Dolls are playing. Phoebe walks up to Prue and Piper.]
Phoebe: Hey. Ask me how I did on my finals.
Prue: How did you do on your finals? Phoebe: Oh, thanks for asking. I aced it. They just posted the grades.
Prue: Yay, good for you.
Phoebe: Thanks, although I did get some perspective in the test. After what happened to Charlene, it just didn't seem important anymore. Um, speaking of perspective…(She holds up their dad's birthday card.)…I signed Dad's card.
Piper: Really?
Phoebe: Yes. Just in case he thinks of us too.
(Piper holds out the card for Prue.)
Prue: No, I definitely don't need to sign that. I mean, I realize that Dad is never gonna be the father that Cleavant is and I just need to accept that and stop thinking that magically somehow he'll change.
(Leo walks down the stairs.)
Piper: Excuse me. (She goes over to Leo.) How'd you get in? I thought Whitelighter pay sucked.
Leo: I, uh, sorta didn't tell the bouncer I don't work here anymore.
Piper: Hmm, imagine that. Like you sorta didn't tell me you were married.
Leo: Uh, look, Piper, I didn't tell you because I didn't want you to get upset. It was literally a different life for me, one that has nothing to do with this one, with us.
Piper: I know that and I'm not mad. But you can't not tell me stuff because you think it might hurt. If we're gonna have a normal relationship, at least as normal as possible, then you need to be honest with me.
Leo: You're right. Sorry. Forgive me?
Piper: I'll think about it.
(They smile.)
Leo: So, uh, how much do you think Dan really knows?
Piper: I don't know. We'll worry about it later.
(They join Prue and Phoebe and watch the Goo Goo Dolls play.)
2x20: Astral Monkey
[Scene: Manor. Living room. Prue’s watching Phoebe put their files in the fireplace.]
Phoebe: Bye, bye, files.
Prue: Well, at least everything's back to normal... (she looks over at the monkeys who are sitting on the couch eating stuff out of a bowl.) for us.
Phoebe: At least we're safe.
Prue: Yeah, what about them?
Phoebe: Oh, they'll be safe tomorrow when I drop them off at the wildlife conservatory. Hey, watch this. You guys, what do you think of evil? (One monkey covers its eyes, the other puts his fingers in its ears and the other covers its mouth. Prue and Phoebe laugh.)
Prue: You're gonna miss them aren't you?
Phoebe: Yeah.
(Piper walks in holding her files.)
Prue: Hey, we've been wondering where you've been.
Phoebe: Oh, you know what? I have something for you. (She gets a piece of paper out of her pocket and hands it to Piper.)
Piper: What is this?
Phoebe: Uh, ground rules for me.
(Piper reads the note.)
Piper: "I want a man who hates my brand of cereal so there'll always be some for me. A man who's love will catch me by surprise." What is this?
Phoebe: It's a wish list. I hope I find someone as great as Leo. You deserve the best and I think you found it.
Piper: So you guys don't mind of he's hanging around a lot?
Prue: We just want you to be happy, honey. (Piper walks over to the fireplace and puts her files in.) Piper.
Phoebe: Are you okay?
Piper: His name was Curtis.
Phoebe: Whose name was Curtis?
Piper: Dr. Williamson. I read it in his medical bio. His first name was Curtis. He never married because he was working all the time. Saving lives was more important to him than having a life of his own. Now his life is over and I can't help but feel responsible for that.
Phoebe: We tried to save him.
Piper: But we didn't.
Prue: Because we couldn't.
Piper: I couldn't.
(She leaves the room.)
Phoebe: Should we, uh...?
Prue: No, not this time.
[Cut to Piper's room. She walks in and closes the door. She sits on her bed and starts crying. Leo orbs in and sits down next to her. He puts his arm around her and pulls her close to him.]
Choice #8: 2x21: Apocalypse, Not
[Scene: P3. Prue, Piper and Phoebe are sitting in the alcove. They're watching everyone dance.]
Phoebe: Look at them. They'll all live to dance another day and what do we get? We saved the whole darn world. The least we can get is a thank you, you know.
(Leo comes up to them.)
Leo: Ladies.
Phoebe: Hey, Leo.
Leo: I know this has been hard on all of you.
Phoebe: Yeah, well, we sort of made it hard on you too.
Piper: Leo, it's just...
Leo: It's okay, Piper. We were doing our job.
Phoebe: Okay, the master of understatement, is there anything else?
Leo: No, I was just at a meeting and they told me that it was your act of complete selflessness that stopped the Source's plan from going forward.
Prue: So the Four Horsemen were destroyed because Piper and Phoebe were willing to sacrifice me?
Leo: The Horsemen's bosses said that it was a sign that there were still too much good in the world to make the apocalypse successful.
Piper: So are they giving up?
Leo: No, in fact they'll probably try harder from now on.
Phoebe: Do you wanna have a drink with us Leo?
Leo: No, you need time together. Just you three. I'll see you. (He leaves.)
Prue: You know, you two faced an incredibly hard thing and, um, you made the right decision. Through your own free will.
Phoebe: I am so, so, so sorry, Prue.
Piper: So am I.
Prue: There's no apologies necessary. You were all just doing our jobs. I just have to deal with that.
(The bartender comes up to them holding Phoebe's book.)
Bartender: Everyone has to vote on this. What if a building was on fire? Do you save five strangers or one sibling?
Prue, Piper, Phoebe: Five strangers.
2x22: Be Careful What You Witch For
[Piper walks back inside and Leo, Phoebe and Prue are standing in the foyer.)
Prue: Well, that was an interesting couple of days.
Phoebe: Interesting couple of years.
(The Elders call Leo.)
Leo: They're calling me, I've gotta go.
Piper: Not so fast. If we're ever gonna make this work I think I deserve to know a little bit more about you, don't you think?
Leo: What do you mean?
Piper: I mean, I'm going with you, Leo. I'd like to meet 'them'.
Leo: Are you sure?
Piper: Positive. (she puts her arms around him.) Take me to your leader.
Phoebe: Uh, Piper? Wh-wh-whatta?
Piper: Don't worry; I'll be back.
(They orb out.)
Phoebe: Worried? I'm not worried. I mean, of course they'll be back, right?
Prue: Of course. I mean why would we worry?
(Prue and Phoebe look at each other, obviously worried. Phoebe walks away. Prue looks at the door, raises her hand and uses her power to close it.)
Note from Es: Like S1, the last scene is Prue closing the door…
