Favorite S3 Episode(s) That Uses ALL Three Sisters Abilities

[Aaeiyn]

I've been a little obsessed with episodes that uses ALL three sisters' powers and/or abilities, this includes Phoebe's (Strength) Martial Arts. I figured I'd make a poll about them. I'm even being harsh on HOW the episode uses their powers/abilities and ENSURE it comes from an AUTHENTIC place via from the originator of the power/ability and NOT influenced by something else, and you'll see what kind of episodes will be excluded. So, let's have some fun! We get up to SEVEN votes! You don't have to use them all, if you don't want to, though.

NOT listing the following, due to one or TWO of the sisters NOT using ANY form of their power/ability:

S3E4 "All Halliwell's Eve" - Phoebe does NOT use ANY of her abilities, whatsoever. Only Piper & Prue do.
S3E10 "We all Scream for Ice Cream" - Piper does NOT freeze anything, whatsoever. Only Phoebe & Prue are using their powers/abilities.
S3E13 "Bride & Gloom" - Only Piper is using her abilities, naturally. Phoebe was under the influence of "evil", when she used her Strength, and Prue NEVER used her abilities, whatsoever, good or evil.
S3E14 "The Good, the Bad & the Cursed" - Piper does NOT freeze anything, whatsoever. Only Phoebe & Prue are using their powers/abilities.
S3E15 "Just Harried" - Only Prue is using her abilities. Neither Phoebe nor Piper are using their's.
S3E16 "Death Takes a Halliwell" - Piper does NOT freezing anything, whatsoever. Only Phoebe & Prue are using their powers/abilities.
S3E20 "Exit Strategy" - Phoebe does NOT use ANY of her abilities, whatsoever. Only Piper & Prue do.
S3E21 "Look who's Barking" - Prue does NOT use ANY of her abilities, whatsoever. Only Phoebe & Piper are using their powers/abilities.

NOT listing these episodes, even if it SEEMS to display their powers/abilities:

S3E9 "Coyote Piper" - Only Terra uses Piper's freezing power (TWICE). Piper NEVER used her freezing power, naturally. OFC, BOTH Phoebe & Prue used their powers/abilities, here.

Enjoy!

My choices will be similar to how I did my S1 picks & S2 picks. I'm using the following criteria:

-"Protect/Save the Innocent(s)" type of episodes, first and foremost. There's 10 of them in S3 (from this poll), so I will NOT be choosing 3 of them.
-REAL balancing of powers (like how evened out EACH of the sisters' powers/abilities were used)
-ALL Three sisters being present and around in helping out the situations, UNLESS there's a perfectly good explanation for their absence.

*NEW*
-Original Warren powers, preferred, as in first original powers over secondary/new powers.
-Family History episodes are a good substitute if NOTHING else is available.

Here's what I came up with:

S3E1 "The Honeymoon's Over"
Piper Freeze Count: 2
Phoebe Premonition Count: 1
Phoebe Strength (Y/N): Y
Phoebe Levitation Count: 1
Prue TK Count: 11
Prue AP Count: 0
Note: While, Prue is TKing "a lot", you really don't notice it because it blends really well with everything going on. Considering how active this episode is, it makes sense why Prue is TKing, left & right.

S3E2 "Magic Hour"
Piper Freeze Count: 3
Phoebe Premonition Count: 1
Phoebe Strength (Y/N): N
Phoebe Levitation Count: 0
Prue TK Count: 5
Prue AP Count: 0
Note: After S1, premonitions no longer go passed the "1" count except on a rare occasion. That being said, great episode for JUST original Warren powers + "protect/save the innocent(s)".

S3E3 "Once Upon a Time"
Piper Freeze Count: 3
Phoebe Premonition Count: 0
Phoebe Strength (Y/N): N
Phoebe Levitation Count: 1
Prue TK Count: 2
Prue AP Count: 0
Note: Despite NOT be an original Warren power episode, it still balances out ALL THREE sisters' ACTIVE powers, nicely.

S3E6 "Primrose Empath"
Piper Freeze Count: 1 (not counting Piper attempting to freeze Vinceres)
Phoebe Premonition Count: 1
Phoebe Strength (Y/N): Y
Phoebe Levitation Count: 0
Prue TK Count: 4
Prue AP Count: 1 (not counting Empath Prue APing)
Note: If only Phoebe had levitated in this episode, it would be golden LOL Otherwise, fairly balanced out episode between ALL THREE sisters.

S3E11 "Blinded by the Whitelighter"
Piper Freeze Count: 5
Phoebe Premonition Count: 1
Phoebe Strength (Y/N): Y
Phoebe Levitation Count: 1
Prue TK Count: 4
Prue AP Count: 0 (it is mentioned, though)
Note: Nice to see a balance between ALL THREE sisters. I like the split in Phoebe's tool kit to match with her two other sisters.

S3E17 "Prewitched"
Piper Freeze Count: 1 (not counting the two times Shadow fought through Piper's freezes)
Phoebe Premonition Count: 0
Phoebe Strength (Y/N): Y
Phoebe Levitation Count: 0
Prue TK Count: 1
Prue AP Count: 0
Note: Would've been nice if Phoebe had a premonition, here, but I'll take her Strength, I guess. Good power balance between ALL THREE sisters. Nice little Family History but (also) "protect/save the innocent(s)" ish in theme LOL

S3E18 "Sin Francisco"
Not counting them in their influenced (by the sin balls) sinful state. Only their non-influenced (by the sin balls) sinful state.
Piper Freeze Count: 1
Phoebe Premonition Count: 0
Phoebe Strength (Y/N): Y
Phoebe Levitation Count: 0
Prue TK Count: 2
Prue AP Count: 0
Note: Despite Phoebe having non-visual premonitions in her influenced (by the sin balls) sinful state, nice to see her use her Strength PRIOR to that. Would've been nice to have a premonition, when she touched the box but alas. Still fairly balanced, though.

Why I did NOT choose:

S3E12 "Wrestling with Demons"
Piper Freeze Count: 2
Phoebe Premonition Count: 0 (not counting the off-screen premonition)
Phoebe Strength (Y/N): Y
Phoebe Levitation Count: 0
Prue TK Count: 5
Prue AP Count: 0
Note: One of the FIRST episodes to have an "off-screen" premonition, and I HATE it! This episode isn't great, either.

S3E19 "The Demon who Came in from the Cold"
Piper Freeze Count: 2
Phoebe Premonition Count: 0
Phoebe Strength (Y/N): Y
Phoebe Levitation Count: 0
Prue TK Count: 2
Prue AP Count: 0
Note: Not a fan of the episode despite the power/ability balance. Phoebe doesn't have a premonition, either.

S3E22 "All Hell Breaks Loose"
Piper Freeze Count: 0
Piper Exploding Count: 1
Phoebe Premonition Count: 0 (not counting the off-screen premonition)
Phoebe Strength (Y/N): Y
Phoebe Levitation Count: 0
Prue TK Count: 9
Prue AP Count: 0
Note: WORST episode to showcase ORIGINAL Warren powers and ANOTHER "off-screen" premonition, no thank you.
