Charmed Again Part 2
Disclaimer: I don’t own any of the, Charmed characters they all
belong to Aaron Spelling productions except Melissa Hale who’s my
own creation.
Authors Notes: This’s series three of my, Charmed season, which
continues a week after “All Hell Breaks Loose”
Note: Hiya folks & welcome to my new season of Charmed. My
stories will be different as they were then but still have the same
outcome so the episodes fit together. Everyone who was there will
still, be here minus Prue & Phoebe who’re dead of course & some
other characters that were introduced will be back this season. I’ll
still be using spells from the show & some I create myself which’ll be
different but still have the same affect & better sounding. I may, use
some stories from season two as episode fillers to outweigh the
main storyline going on here or I mayn’t. I’ll see about that when it
comes along.
Extra Note: Piper & Melissa have met their newly acquired relative
Paige & vanquished the Source’s assassin & reconstituted the
Power Of Three. But now the Source wants Paige to use her powers
for evil & tries using the window of opportunity to do that. The
remaining Charmed Ones have to save her before she becomes evil
forever. The Source gets his revenge on Cole/Belthazor & Andy
leaves at the end & Sam Wilder makes a special appearance as a
ghost.
Episode Two
Underworld Thursday Fifth August
The Source appears before the Oracle.
The Source: My assassin failed although he was defeated not vanquished. The witch is alive.
Oracle: Yes, I know.
The Source: You told me her future was short-lived. You told me.
Oracle: I told you only that it appeared to be short-lived. Seeing into
the future’s not always exact, especially when magical forces are at
play.
The Source: Paige will be almost untouchable now that she's
reunited with her family.
Oracle: But the bond isn't there yet like it was with the original three which will take a long time to form meaning she's vulnerable & easily swayed until then.
She goes over to the Source.
Oracle: Forty Eight little hours. The window of opportunity agreed to
eons ago by both sides to protect free will. (Whispers) The great
flaw in the grand design.
The Source: She hasn't chosen the other side yet?
Oracle: Well, she's young, confused, doesn't know which way to
turn. You must seduce her into using her powers for evil then, she
will become evil. & that's even better than killing her, which, of
course you could still do. You need to get close to her, read her
soul, corrupt it, & she's yours.
The Source caresses the Oracle's chin.
The Source: & you Oracle need to see the future more clearly, for
your own future.
He flames out afterwards.
Shane's Hospital Room
Shane wakes & stands up. The lights flicker. The Source appears
before him.
Shane: What the hell? Who’re you?
The Source: For now, I am you.
The Source disappears & possesses Shane. Paige enters the room.
Paige: Oh, my God, the most horrible thing has happened to me! I
can't explain it.
Shane/Source: Shh. Its okay honey I'm here now. It's okay.
The possessed Shane has his eyes turn all black as he embraces
Paige.
OPENING CREDITS
I am the son and the heir

Kitchen Friday Sixth August
Melissa retrieves a couple of ice packs from the freezer & places
them gently on Leo & Andy’s necks. They both hold them against
themselves.
Piper: So basically because of recent events I.E my sisters dying,
Shax & the Source coming for us quicker than anticipated the Elders
are advancing Mel’s powers?
Leo: Well Phoebe’s astral projection so that Mel can be both
conscious at the same time.
Piper: How comes they won’t advance mine I mean that’d be a
great boost against the Source or even making Paige be able to use
her properly.
Leo: Firstly your powers are far greater than Mel’s & secondly
advancing Paige’s powers when she’s hardly used them would do
great damage to her because she won’t be able to control them yet.
Andy: Well whatever we have to concentrate on ourselves first. God
I don't understand how you can heal innocents, but you can't heal
yourself then me.
Leo: It's kinder hard to heal both of us when we’re knocked out
Andy.
Piper: What I wanna knows how’s, it possible for an angel to get
knocked out as well as a human? I mean, you are, technically dead
after all.
Leo: You’re asking me that Piper after 2 years been together.
Piper: Well.
Andy: I think the more appropriate question’s how did, a white-
lighter manage to get someone knocked up when before you &
Piper they weren’t allowed to have a relationship with their
charges?
Melissa: Well they obviously had a secret relationship. I mean we
know Grandma Patty wrote Sam love letters. & her, & Grandpa were
divorced then so something must’ve happened between them &
Paige was created.
Piper: & why didn’t the Elders tell us all about this before now then?
Leo: Because of all the reasons you’re mom and grandmother told you about last night Piper.
Piper Yeah but they could’ve told us that Paige was our sister & Mel’s Aunt still.
Melissa: Sister witch.
Piper: Who’s, half-witch, half-whitelighter also. Let's not forget that
little surprise.
Melissa helps the two men with their ice packs.
Piper: I can't believe that Mom kept that secret from us.
Melissa: She probably didn't have much of a choice mom.
Piper: I’m her daughter Mel as was Prue & Phoebe. She could've
found a way to share that information with us.
Melissa: It was probably hard for her to do that mom. When Cole & I
were first together in the future it took us a long time to tell my
cousins that. Especially Ben because we were, worried what they’d
think of us. Grandma Patty may’ve felt the same way.
The doorbell rings.
Piper: Okay that better not be another long-lost relative.
She goes to answer the door. Melissa, Andy & Leo follow. Piper
greets Darryl at the door & lets him in.
Darryl: Hi Piper.
Piper: Hi there.
Piper closes the door & Darryl looks around.
Darryl: Where's Cortez?
Leo: Who?
Darryl: Inspector Cortez - the one I hit over the head, the one you
said you would take care of. He's missing. Police inspectors are not
supposed to be missing. Where is he?
Melissa: Well, I kind of sent him to…
Piper: Timbuktu. It rhymed with undo.
Darryl: Timbuktu.
Andy: Look man, its okay. Cole went to get him.
Darryl: Cole?
Cole shimmers in by the stairs. Melissa goes towards him.
Melissa: Cole!
Cole: Wait.
He gets an energy ball ready & a bounty hunter appears suddenly &
strikes. The bolt of blue lightning misses Cole barely & Cole kills the bounty hunter with his energy ball. Cole stands up.
Cole: Damn bounty hunters… they're like gnats.
Darryl: Where's the inspector?
Cole: Don't worry. I found him & moved him to a place he can't tell a
soul what he saw literally.
Leo: Whaddya mean? Where'd you put him?
Cole gestures below him.
Piper: In the basement?
Melissa: No I think more further below than that.
Piper: Hell?
Melissa nods at her.
Melissa: Yep.
Andy: Cole, he's a cop. He's one of the good guys.
Cole: He's also the one who can expose Mel & Piper as witches. I
think you Andy after what happened to Prue would want to avoid
that at all costs.
Leo: Not at that cost. We have to save him.
Darryl: Save him? Whaddya mean, save him? What's going on?
Melissa: You know what, Darryl? We’re goanna take care of this
whole mess.
Darryl: Wait a second. Hold...
Melissa: You don't worry about it.
She escorts Darryl out the door then rejoins joins the others.
Piper: Okay Leo maybe you can talk to the Inspector, & reason with him.
Cole: & what if he can't? What if you & Mel get exposed? What's to
say the same thing that happened to Phoebe & Prue won't
happened, to you two?
Melissa: Well it's a risk we'll have to take.
Cole: Yeah well, you know what? There's another risk you guys
have to worry about. On the way back, I heard gargoyles.
Piper: Gargoyles? You mean like statues?
Cole: That's only in they're in their resting state. They come alive to
ward off evil. In this case, I think they're trying to ward off the
Source. I think he's surfaced.
Melissa: You mean here now? Where?
Cole: I don't know. He could be anywhere or anyone.
Piper: Anyone?
Cole: (Nods head) Yeah he can possess people.
Andy: Great.
Leo: Probably came for Paige, but she doesn't stand a chance
against him. She doesn't even know what, her power’s yet.
Piper: Honey we don't stand a chance against him. Not without my
sisters.
Melissa: We don’t need them mom we’ve the new Power of Three sort of with Paige. We just have to get to her before he does & get her use her powers.
Piper: Can you sense her?
Leo: I don't think so. She's too new.
Melissa: Then we go to her loft & see if she’s there.
Piper: & if she isn’t?
Melissa: Then we go to the church Grandma Patty talked about.
Cole: Can’t you split up & go to both places.
Piper: No Cole Mel would be on her own & she can’t be not without
knowing how to use Phoebe’s powers.
Cole: But I could go with her for protection & Leo could go with you.
Melissa: That’d take too long Cole. We need to choose one place &
go there.
Andy: Couldn’t you scry for her if Leo can’t sense.
Piper: We’d need something of her’s which we don’t have.
Andy: Well you’ve got the information I got on her right? Even
though Paige’s not touched it, it is about her.
Melissa: Oh yeah he’s right I forgot.
Piper: Okay then let’s do this quickly.
Paige's Loft
Shane/Source is staring at a bird in a cage. The bird’s scared.
Paige: Oscar...what's the matter, sweetheart? It's okay. I'm home.
Paige goes back to her closet & picks out a jacket. She sits down on
her bed.
Shane/Source: Maybe he doesn't like me.
Paige: Don't be ridiculous. He's always liked you.
Shane/Source: Well, aren't you goanna tell me what happened last
night?
Paige sits on the bed.
Paige: No. It's nothing.
Shane/Source: It seemed like something to me. You were pretty
scared.
Paige: Let's just say that when I wanted to find out who I was, I didn't want to find out I was a freak. Look, can we just talk about this later?
Shane/Source: Of course. Hey, I never got to thank you for taking
such good care of me.
Shane/Source and Paige are about to kiss but they break apart
when Paige's bird, Oscar, screeches very loudly.
Paige: Oscar. Listen, I should get to work anyway. I'm in enough
trouble with the boss as it is.
Paige heads for the door and Shane/Source raises a glowing red
hand at Paige's direction.
Shane/Source: Well, I know how badly you want to be there for that
placement hearing.
Paige stops & turns around.
Paige: How did you know about that?
Shane/Source: Well, you told me, remember? Little kid abusive dad. You said nothing gets under your skin more than that.
Paige: Right. Okay. Make yourself at home. Stop by for lunch if you
feel up to it.
Shane/Source: Count on it.
Paige leaves her apartment. Shane/Source turns to the bird, Oscar,
& sets him on fire leaving a burnt corpse behind in the birdcage.
Shane/Source disappears in a fiery display.
Cole/Phoebe’s Room
Cole now changed clothes is crying as the emotion of what
happened yesterday finally gets to him as he’s looking at a picture
of him & Phoebe.
Upstairs Hallway
Melissa coming upstairs calls out to him.
Melissa: Hey Cole dad’s waiting.
Seeing her Cole gets up quickly tucks the picture under the mattress
& turns round wiping his tears away so she can’t see he’s been
crying. Melissa sees him turned round in his bedroom.
Melissa: To get Cortez.
Walking up she comes inside.
Cole/Phoebe’s Room
Melissa: Hey Cole dad’s waiting.
Composing himself Cole turns.
Cole: Yeah I know I was just changing.
Melissa: Oh right.
Seeing his face Melissa quizzes him.
Melissa: You alright?
Cole: Yeah I erm.
Melissa: Miss Aunt Phoebe? I was wondering when you were
goanna let go.
Not been able to lie anymore Cole lowers himself on the bed as tears flow from him again. Sitting beside him Melissa pulls Cole against her & hugs him.
Cole: (Upset) Oh god I’m so sorry Mel I just miss her so much. I was
trying to stay strong, like you know, keep it together for everyone &
put all my energy into helping you save Paige because a demon’s
not supposed to cry &.
Melissa: Who says you can’t cry Cole? You’re only human if you do
which your half of. & secondly helps you grieve & move on.
Cole: Oh yeah who told you that then?
Melissa: You did actually in the future which helped me come to
terms with my adopted families, murder & finding out my real family
died also. If I hadn’t have taken your advice & had god also thing’s
would’ve turned out a lot different. That’s why I said yesterday I
haven’t cried because I’ve gone through that once already.
Cole: (Upset) But what am I supposed to do Mel? Phoebe changed
me & made me better & taught me how to regress Belthazor.
Melissa: You don’t change anything. You just continue what you’re
doing & make Phoebe proud of you.
She pulls away from him.
Melissa: No comes on dad’s waiting.
Cole: Okay.
Getting up they leave the room.
Hell
Cortez is on a ledge screaming.
Cortez: Help me!
Below him’s a pool of hot magma. He’s startled when he looks
down. Leo orbs & Cole shimmers onto a ledge next to Cortez.
Cortez: Help me! You! Stay away from me! Stay away!
Leo: We're here to save you.
Cortez: You're the one who put me here!
Cole: No, no. Actually, that was just me. Hoping you'd change your mind about the girls, have you?
Cortez: Killing me’s the only way to keep me from trying to stop you!
Leo: We're not goanna kill you, Inspector. But what you don't
understand’s that by exposing the girls, you're not stopping evil,
you're helping it.
Cortez: Oh, yeah, right.
Cole: (Whispers to Leo) You do understand if we take him back, it's
over. You'll lose Piper & Mel & it’ll be like me losing Phoebe all over
again.
Leo outstretches his hand to Cortez.
Leo: Take my hand.
Cortez: No.
Leo: Take my hand. Where else can I take you that's, worse than this?
Cortez grabs Leo's hand & they orb out, followed by Cole, who
shimmers out.
South Bay Social Services
Paige’s talking to her uncle on the phone at her desk in her cubicle.
Paige: (Into phone) So, how's Aunt Julie? Yeah? Oh. Is her hip any
better?
A couple comes up to the receptionist.
Jake: Jake & Carol Grisanti for Mr. Cowan.
Receptionist: Okay. I'll let him know you're here.
Paige’s distracted by it.
Paige: (Into phone) I'm sorry. Say that again? I got distracted.
Receptionist: He'll be with you in a few minutes.
Jake goes over to the wife.
Jake: I'm goanna go wash up, alright?
He leaves.
Bathroom
Jake washes his face. The lights in the bathroom flash & he turns to
find Shane/Source standing there.
Jake: What do you want?
The Source comes out of Shane & possesses the man, Jake.
Paige’s Cubical
Paige’s still talking on the phone.
Paige: (Into phone) Hey, before you go, can I ask you a question?
Do you guys still go to that church Mom & Dad used to go to? Is
there still a nun called Sister Agnes there? (Pauses) Yeah, right the
one that found me. No, no, I haven't spoken to but something's
come up, & I think I should.
She sees Jake/Source over by Mr. Cowan.
Paige: Uh, Uncle Dave, I gotta go. I'll call you back, okay? Yeah, I
love you too.
Paige hangs up the phone & walks over to her boss.
Paige: Mr. Cowan.
Cowan: Hey, look Paige. I got this, okay?
Paige: No. But you can't let that little boy go home with that jerk.
Cowan: Paige, number one, you don't know for a fact he's abusing
the boy. & number two, this’s none of your business. You are an assistant, not a social worker.
Paige: That's because you're too cheap to make me one.
Mr. Cowan goes back into his office. Jake/Source stands at the other
side of the office window & gives Paige a look. Cowan, closes the
window blinds & Paige turns round & leaves the room. An hour later,
Paige’s pacing. Cowan comes out of his office. She approaches him.
Paige: What's happened?
Cowan: Nothing's been decided. We're goanna meet again tomorrow.
Paige: Tomorrow? You can't let him go home with that kid?
Cowan: I can, & I am. Look, Paige, you weren't in there. He was
very persuasive.
Paige: Persuasive? What about the police report & counsellor's
recommendations?
Cowan: Look, Paige, I know how you feel about these cases, but we can't make a decision based on what you think. We have to base it on face, but right now we don't have enough yet. I'm sorry.
Cowan, walks away. Jake/Source & his wife step out of the little
office & he confronts Paige.
Jake/Source: You got a problem, lady?
Paige: Yeah, I do. I got a problem with people who hit their kids.
Jake/Source: Oh.
Carol: Come on, Jake. Let's just go.
Jake/Source: Wait. Wait. Listen, I can do whatever the hell I want to.
He lowers his voice.
Jake/Source: & there's nothing you can do about it.
Paige gets her purse & turns to leave. Cowan, looks at her departing.
Cowan: Where do you think you're going?
Paige: Church.
She leaves.
Bathroom
Jake/Source enters the bathroom. He finds an old man bent over
Shane's unconscious body.
Old Man: Can you give me a hand? I think that he must’ve slipped.
Jake/Source turns the old man's body into flames & kills him. The
Source comes outta Jake & repossesses Shane.
Lounge
Melissa & Piper are scrying for Paige using the report Andy gave
them. He comes into the room.
Andy: Have you found anything yet?
The crystal lands on Baltimore Street.
Piper: Yep the crystals landed on Baltimore Street.
Andy: Well that’s not where Paige’s loft is.
Melissa: But it is where my church is St Teresa’s Christian Church.
Andy: So you & she have a connection then. Maybe it was ordained
by a higher power that you joined that church because they knew
about Paige.
Melissa: It could be I don’t know.
Piper: Or it’s just coincidence that she was dropped of there & not
some divine will by god.
Melissa: Well whatever we still need to get there.
St Teresa’s Church
Paige enters the church. There’s a gargoyle statue. Paige makes her
way to approach a nun.
Paige: Excuse me. Are you Sister Agnes?
Sister Agnes: Yes I am. & who might you be?
Paige: I'm Paige. Paige Matthews.
Not recognising her Sister Agnes shakes her head.
Sister Agnes: No sorry I don’t know you.
Paige: No you’d probably not remember me as I’ve changed a little
bit since you last saw me on August 2nd 1977. Does that ring any
bells?
Finally realizing who she is Sister Agnes’s eyes widen.
Sister Agnes: Oh, dear Lord.
Vestibule
Paige & Sister Agnes are in a little office. Sister Agnes retrieves a
box from a trunk.
Sister Agnes: I was just about your age, when they came.
She puts the box on the table.
Paige: They? My mother & my father?
Sister Agnes: They came in a swirl of bright blue white lights like,
angels.
Paige: Blue white lights. Whaddya mean?
Sister Agnes: Well, that's how they appeared, with you in their
arms! I was stunned. I didn't know what to think. They said that
you were in great danger, that they had no choice but to give you
up, to protect you.
Paige: Danger? What kinder danger?
Sister Agnes: Well, they didn't say. But I could tell from their pain
that it must’ve been very real. They asked me to find you a good
home, a safe home, & to keep their secret… until you came looking.
Paige: But how could they know?
Sister Agnes: Because you come from them, my dear. As wonderful
& precious as your adoptive parents were to you, you still come
from angels.
She reaches into the chest and pulls out a blanket with a P on it.
Sister Agnes: They asked me to save this for you for this day. It's
what they bundled you up in. Your mother had only one request
that your name began with a P.
St Teresa’s Interior
Piper & Melissa come inside.
Piper: Okay Paige should be here somewhere.
She turns round seeing Melissa put some money in the poor box.
Piper: Mel whaddya doing?
Melissa: Putting some money in the poor box.
Piper: Come on.
Walking off Melissa follows on signing a cross down her chest as
she passes a statue of Jesus.
Vestibule
Sister Agnes & Paige are still talking when they hear a on the office
door & Piper & Melissa enter.
Sister Agnes: Yes, may I help.
Piper: Hi.
She freezes Sister Agnes.
Piper: Hey, what's up? We need to get you out of here.
Paige: What did you do to her?
Melissa: Oh mom just froze Sister Agnes but she'll be fine.
Paige: How do you know her?
Melissa: By coming here every Sunday.
Piper: Mel’s religious.
Looking down she points at the blanket Paige’s holding.
Piper: Is that mine & my sisters blanket?
She tries to touch it, but Paige pulls it away.
Paige: No! That's mine! Leave me alone!
She turns to leave.
Melissa: Alright! Gee.
She & Piper follow Paige.
Melissa: Paige, Paige, Paige.
Piper: Stop or I'll freeze you!
Paige stops & turns. Piper & Melissa stop as well.
Melissa: (To Piper) She's a witch mom. You can't freeze her.
Piper: (To Melissa) She doesn't know that does she?
Paige: Will you please just leave me alone?
Paige continues to walk towards the main exit.
Melissa: Look, we know what you're going through. We went
thought the same thing when we first found out we were witches,
too.
Piper: Look. You just gotta trust us. Somebody very bad’s after you.
Paige stops and turns around.
Paige: Trust you? You just froze a nun? How do I know you're not
the bad ones?
Piper: Well if we are, then you are, to sister.
Melissa: Mom.
Paige turns to leave.
Piper: What? Fine then, you try.
Melissa: (To Paige) Paige look I know what you must be thinking
because I thought the same thing too.
Paige stops & turns. Melissa & Piper come closer to Paige to talk.
Paige: Oh yeah how can you know that?
Coming closer to her Melissa speaks.
Melissa: I was adopted just like you. I come from the future well did
come before it changed completely. Piper’s my mom & Leo the guy
with short blonde hair’s my father. They & my Aunt Prue & Phoebe
were killed when we were born because the now Source of all Evil’s
successor wanted us dead as his seer had a premonition that my
cousin’s & I would kill him when we’d grown up. But Cole the tall
brown haired guy you saw at the funeral & some friends of his
stopped Bacarra doing that but because of fear he might find us
again they stripped our powers & put us up for adoption so he
couldn’t find us magically. 18 & half years later Bacarra found out our true identities & had our adopted families killed because they wouldn’t tell his demons where we were. Years later my cousin Ben got a premonition of the Source killing mom, Aunt Prue & Phoebe in the past so I came back to warn them of that. Me & my friend Suzanne swapped powers & she & my cousins got Bacarra in the future but it changed everything then meaning my future changed & I was stuck here now.
Paige: So you.
Melissa: Was half white lighter half witch just like you are. I could
freeze things like mom can but in millions of tiny orbs.
Piper: You have a magical power also. At least, if you're a Charmed
One, you do. & the sooner you learn it, the sooner you'll be able to
protect yourself.
Paige: I’ve a power?
Melissa: Mmm. According to the prophecy, the third witch has the
power to move things with her mind but because you’re half white
lighter you’ll orb them instead.
Paige: & how does that work?
Melissa sees a lit candle resting across from them on a candlestick.
Melissa: You call for an object with your mind like that candle.
She points to it.
Melissa: Over there & orb it to yourself kinder like teleporting except not yourself.
Paige & how do I do that?
Outstretching her right hand Melissa pretends to the call the candle
to her.
Melissa: Candle. Now you try it just like I did.
Paige does but nothing happens.
Piper: Try again.
Paige does but nothing happens again.
Paige: See I don’t have a power. You’ve got it all wrong.
Melissa: No we haven’t. You orbed when Shax threw the energy ball
at you so you do have powers your just not concentrating enough
because you don’t believe you can do it. You have to do that & want
the candle to come to you. Now close your eyes & focus on the
candle picture it in your mind & tell it what you want to do &
remember believe.
Paige: Okay.
Turning round Paige closes her eyes & concentrates on the candle.
Visualising it in her mind she calls for it to come to her.
Paige: CANDLE!
Working this time the candle orbs over from the candlestick onto
Paige’s hand. Feeling it she opens her eyes it astonishment.
Paige: (Astonished) Oh my god I did it. I don’t believe it.
Melissa: Believe it.
Paige: I’m a witch.
Piper: Yep. Welcome to our world.
St Teresa’s Exterior
Shane/Source flames in & walks toward the church.
Shane/Source: She better be here, Oracle. I'm running outta time.
Oracle: (As A Voice) She is. Don't worry.
Shane/Source stops & spots the gargoyle. The gargoyle screeches &
Shane/Source drops to the ground covering his ears screaming in
pain.
Shane/Source: No!
St Teresa’s Interior
Paige, Melissa & Piper hear the noise.
Paige: What is that?
Melissa: I don't know.
St Teresa’s Exterior
Shane/Source's hand glows read & the doors open.
Shane/Source: Paige.
Paige: Shane?
She rushes to help him.
Paige: What's the matter? My god, what happened?
Shane/Source: I don't know someone's after me.
Paige helps him up. Realising something’s wrong Melissa & Piper
speak out.
Melissa/Piper:Paige!
They both run after her.
Paige: Come on. Let's get out of here.
Melissa: Paige! Come back!
Shane/Source turns & fires a red bolt at Melissa & Piper. They both scream & go flying backwards, sliding their way to the inside of the front of the church.
Melissa: Whoo.
Piper: What the hell was that?
Coming up they notice Sister Agnes standing beside them looking
angry.
Sister Agnes: Good question.
San Francisco PD Station
Cole & Leo follow Cortez as he makes his way to a phone.
Cole: Look, we didn't have to bring you back, you know. We
could’ve just let you rot.
Leo: Cole, I really don't think this’s helping any.
Cole: Like your way is?
Darryl comes over to him.
Darryl: Cortez, where you've been?
Cortez: You don’t wanna know.
He speaks into the phone.
Cortez: This’s Inspector Cortez. I need a surveillance team around
the clock. I'll take one shift.
Darryl: What’re you doing?
Cortez: What I said I'd do before you clipped me from behind.
Cole: You're making a big mistake, Inspector.
Leo hears a Piper calling.
Cole: You’ve no idea what you're doing.
Cortez: You wanna bet?
Leo: Something's wrong. Piper's calling.
Cole: Just so you know, whatever pain you put them through
because of what you're doing will be nothing compared to the pain I put you through. You understand?
Cortez speaks into the phone again.
Cortez: Yeah the addresses 1329 Prescott Street. Melissa Hale &
Piper Halliwell they're murder suspects.
Leo: Alright. Come on. Come on.
He & Cole leave.
Cortez: (Into the phone) Yeah, thanks.
Darryl grabs Cortez as he hangs up the phone.
Darryl: Hey, listen Cortez.
He points at Darryl.
Cortez: Let go of me.
Darryl does so.
Cortez: You make me sick. How long have you been covering up for
them, huh? How many other murders have you ignored just to
protect them? You're a disgrace to that shield, my friend.
Darryl pins him up to the wall.
Darryl: This isn't the first time I've risked my career for those girls -
my life, my family! They're the best people I've ever met, & they'll do
more good than you'll ever know. & it cost them their sister & cousin.
Two inspectors pull Darryl away from Cortez.
Cop One: Hey, hey inspector, ease up.
Cop Two: Yeah you alright?
Darryl: Hmm. I'm good. I'm good.
Sunroom
Melissa, Andy & Piper are sitting on the couch. Cole & Leo are pacing
in front of them with their arms folded.
Leo: So the Source was there, at the church?
Melissa: Well, the gargoyles weren't exactly whistling Dixie, dad.
Piper: Plus, something pretty powerful knocked us on our asses.
Cole sits down.
Cole: But if he was there, why didn't he try to kill Paige?
Piper: Obviously he didn't want to go up against the new Charmed Ones.
Melissa: No, that doesn't make sense. He knows Paige’s new to her
powers. If there was ever a time to attack.
Leo: Wait a minute. What if he's not trying to kill her anymore but
trying to lure her to his side?
Piper: Lure her. Whaddya mean?
Realising what Leo said Melissa talks.
Melissa: The Window Of Opportunity.
Andy: The what?
Cole: It’s a mythical window which has an opening of forty eight
hours.
Piper: Opening?
Melissa: For a nascent witch who hasn't chosen to use her powers for good or evil yet. They can be swayed either way.
Andy: So wait all he has to do’s cast a spell on her?
Cole: No, he can't. It has to be her choice, but he can tempt her,
entice her.
Melissa: But if he gets her to use her powers for evil she becomes
evil forever.
Piper: How do you know that?
Melissa: Because most new witches have the window. Patty, Ben & I
did.
Andy: Someone tried this on you’s.
Melissa nods her head.
Melissa: Mmm Bacarra.
Leo: But I thought he wanted to kill you’s because his Seer
predicted you’d kill him.
Melissa: He did but instead when me, Patty & Ben formed Bacarra tried to get
us on his side using the window but that didn’t work.
Piper sighs.
Piper: God who makes up these cockamamie rules?
Cole looks down & Leo & Melissa look up.
Piper: Oh, never mind. Right so we’ve less than 24 hours to get to
Paige & no idea how to find her.
Melissa: The Source will.
Paige's Apartment
Paige’s sitting on the couch with a blanket. Shane/Source brings her
a glass of water and sits down next to her.
Shane/Source: Here.
Paige: Thanks.
She takes a sip of her water.
Paige: I'm so sorry to involve you in all of this.
Shane/Source: All of what? Paige…
Paige puts down her glass.
Shane/Source: What's going on?
Paige: I don't know. I'm so confused. I don't know what to do.
Shane/Source: Hey, you don't have to know. You're safe here… with
me.
They kiss then Shane/Source speaks to Paige in her head.
Shane/Source: I'll take care of you.
Attic
Cole’s looking at Cortez, who's leaning against his car parked
outside the Manor. Melissa, Andy Leo & Piper are at the Book of
Shadows.
Cole: Are you sure you don't want me to turn Belthazor loose on
Cortez just for a minute or two?
Leo: No. He doesn't have anything on Mel & Piper yet. Besides,
now’s no time to be blurring the line between good and evil.
Melissa closes the book in frustration.
Melissa: Err this, books useless.
She clears her throat then looks up.
Melissa: Hey Grams can you help us out here a little please?
The book opens on its own & flips through the pages. It stops on
one page.
Andy: Okay, an enchantment spell. Wait. How’s this goanna find her?
Melissa: It’s not to find Paige but a way to ID the source. See the last line? It's, "So she can reveal the evil within."
Piper: But that'll only help if we can find him?
Leo: Maybe we can, or at least, maybe he can.
He looks at Cole.
Andy: How can he do that?
Melissa: Cole’s connected to the Source because he’s a demon & as
such can see his aura.
Cole walks toward them. He clears his throat.
Cole: Yeah it's how he reminds us of his power, his reach. Maybe if I
focus on it.
Melissa: Then he'll know you're doing it. & he'll find you.
Cole: Not if I’m careful. It's your only chance at saving Paige.
He goes back to the window.
Andy: Okay. So you need something to enchant.
Melissa: Right, um.
Everyone looks around. Melissa spots something.
Melissa: Oh!
She goes over to a shelf & finds a pair of pink kiddy sunglasses.
Melissa: How about these?
Seeing them Piper, looks a little upset.
Piper: Ahh.
Leo: What?
Piper: Phoebe wore those when she was younger when we played
dress up.
Melissa: Oh if you don’t want me to use them then.
Piper: No they're fine.
Melissa: Okay.
They both hold either side of the sunglasses & say the spell in the
book.
Piper/Melissa: MAGIC FORCES FAR & WIDE, ENCHANT THESE SO
THOSE CAN’T HIDE, ALLOW THIS WITCH TO USE THEREIN, SO SHE
CAN REVEAL THE EVIL WITHIN.
The glasses lenses' grow.
Andy: Whoa.
Piper: Okay. Better test 'em.
Melissa puts the glasses on. She giggles a little as she looks at Leo.
Leo: Well?
Melissa: Nothing dad. You look the same.
Andy: Do I look the same?
Melissa looking at Andy doesn’t notice a difference.
Melissa: Yes you do.
Cole: How about me?
Melissa looks at him & lets out a little scream.
Cole: What?
Through the glasses, Melissa sees Cole as Belthazor as he walks
toward the girls.
Cole: What do I look like?
Melissa: Like Belthazor.
She takes off the glasses.
Piper: So we know they work then?
Cole, smiles a little. Melissa looks up.
Melissa: Thanks for the magical assist Grams.
Andy: How do you know it wasn't somebody else?
Paige’s Bathroom Saturday Seventh August
Paige comes, outta the shower & wraps a towel wrapped round her
& goes to the medicine cabinet. She hears Shane/Source voice. She
stares in the mirror.
Shane/Source: You know who you are now Paige.
His voice goes demonic.
Shane/Source: This’s where your destiny lies. Not with your Wiccan
family.
He appears behind her.
Shane/Source: It's for no one but you. This’s what you've been
searching for your whole life. This’s why you have the power.
He makes an image of Jake/Source appear in the mirror.
Jake/Source: You can't stop me.
Shane/Source: Use your power for your desires, to seek your own
revenge.
The image disappears.
Shane/Source: Use your power. Call for his heart. Call for his life.
He disappears. Paige holds up her hand & the glass from the mirror
shatters & disappears.
South Bay Social Services
Jake & his wife Carol storm out of an office. Mr. Cowan storms off in
a different direction. Paige gets up & follows Jake & Carol as
Shane/Source looks on.
Parking Lot
Jake & Carol go towards their car. Paige holds out her hand.
Paige: Heart.
Jake clutches his heart in pain.
Carol: Jake, what is it?
He falls to the ground as he doubles over.
Carol: No!
On the other side of the parking lot Piper pulls up in her new dark
blue Jeep Cherokee with Melissa, Cole, & Leo in it. They all get out &
look around.
Piper: I don't see Paige anywhere.
Melissa: Are you sure this’s the right place, Cole?
Cole: The Source’s here. I can sense him.
Leo: Wait. There she is.
Melissa puts on the sunglasses & sees a black aura around Paige.
Piper: What’s she doing?
Melissa: I don't know, but she's got a black aura around her.
Leo: The Source?
Cole: No. It can't be. If Mel saw my demonic self, then she'd see his
too.
Melissa: Yeah. Well, whatever it is, it's not good. Come on.
They go towards Paige as a small crowd gathers around Jake.
Carol: Jake! Jake! No.
Melissa: Paige? Paige? It's me, Mel. & Leo, Cole & Piper.
Paige: He's evil. He's hurting his child.
Carol: Oh God! Honey.
Melissa: No. You're being seduced into doing this.
Carol: No! No Jake!
Piper: Alright. You know what?
She freezes the scene except for Paige, her, Mel, Leo, and Cole.
Piper: Hi.
She pushes Paige's hand down.
Piper: Leo, take her. Go home. Go, go, go, go.
Leo orbs out with Paige. The scene unfreezes. Jake's pain lessens.
Cole: Let's get outta here.
They walk away.
Carol: Are you sure you'll alright?
Jake stands up.
Carol: Maybe you'd better lay back down.
Jake: I'm not covering for you anymore Carol. You keep your hands
off our son.
He walks off.
Piper’s Jeep
Piper & Melissa are in there with Cole outside beside them.
Cole: You two go ahead. I'm goanna stay behind. Make sure the
Source doesn't follow you.
Melissa: Okay becareful won’t you.
Cole: I will.
He backs away as they drive off. Shane/Source comes out of the
building. He runs up behind Cole, but flames out before Cole turns
around. Cole then shimmers away.
San Francisco Street
He then shimmers near Shane/Source & walks up behind him. He
turns around & stabs Cole in the stomach. Cole falls down on his
knees.
Shane/Source: Don't die too quickly, traitor.
He holds his hand beside Cole's ear, emerging a yellow-orange light
from it.
Shane/Source: I want you to suffer just like your precious love did.
He puts his hand on his chin as Cole looks at him painfully.
Shane/Source: Don’t worry you’ll be with her soon enough.
He begins to walk away.
Shane/Source: Oracle, find Paige… one last time.
He flames out as Cole slumps to the floor.
Hallway
Coming in Piper & Melissa takes their coats off as Melissa
deactivates the burglar alarm.
Piper: Leo, where's.
As they wonder further a knife’s thrown, nearly missing the two
girls. Piper lets out a small scream.
Leo: I'm having a hard time convincing her she’s not evil!
Piper: I see that.
Andy grabs Paige’s hands from behind & puts them behind her back.
Andy: Hey a little, help here please.
Paige struggling free’s herself of him & outstretches her hand.
Paige: Lamp.
It disappears in blue/white orbs & reappears. She telekinetically
throws it toward Piper & Melissa. Reacting quickly Piper freezes the
lamp before it hits them.
Piper: Hey that’s Mom's crystal!
She tackles Paige to the ground whilst Melissa gripping the lamp
midair settles it down on the coffee table then joins her in holding
her down.
Andy: Bright side least she's getting the hang of her new power.
Melissa: Okay. Relax. Relax.
Leo takes Piper's place in holding Paige down as Piper gets up.
Leo: Alright. Now what?
Piper: We better hope there's some Wiccan exorcism in the Book of
Shadows because yeah.
Melissa: There’s a Latin spell called the “Ritual Runanium” which can
exorcise a demon but Paige’s not actually possessed so it wouldn’t
work on her.
Piper: Well there has to be something that’ll get whatever’s in her
out.
She goes to the stairs, but stops when the lights flicker off/on.
Shane/Source appears by the corner of the stairs.
Piper: Who are you?
His eyes turn all black & he telekinetically throws Piper through the
stairs banister.
Melissa: Mom.
She suddenly projects in behind Shane/Source as he throws an
energy ball at her real self who ducks away for cover. Astral Melissa
grabs Shane/Source & tries to throw him away but getting the
upper hand he slams her back against the grandfather clock making
her disappear & it smash into pieces. He appears by the couch.
Piper uses his power to blow him up. Paige stands up & Leo helps
Piper up. Shane/Source reassembles. Andy coming in behind smacks
a chair against him but has little affect as Shane/Source fireballs him
across the room. Leo runs over & heals him. Getting up Melissa
grabs the glasses & puts them on. She sees the Source.
Melissa: Oh, Mom. That's the… that's the…
She takes off the glasses & goes to Piper.
Melissa: Loo…loo… loo… look!
Piper pushes her hand away.
Piper: I know who that is.
Shane/Source: Your powers are strong, but will they be enough
without the Power of Three.
Not believing what’s happening Paige looks at Shane/Source
weirdly.
Paige: Shane, what's going on?
Shane/Source: (In Shane's voice) It’s okay. I'm here now.
Paige backs away from him.
Paige: Stay away from me.
Leo: She still has free will. You can't force her to choose.
Shane/Source: Oh, but she's already chosen, haven't you? Come
with me. You'll be safe forever. I promise.
Melissa: Paige don't, listen to him. He's lying.
Shane/Source: They only want you for your power.
Piper: That’s not true.
Shane/Source: You don't have to share it. It's yours.
He turns into Mr. Cowan.
Shane/Source: You've already seen what you can do with it. You do
what nobody else can do.
He turns into Carol.
Shane/Source: You nearly saved my son from his father. From all the
pain & suffering he's put him through.
He turns into the little boy.
Boy: Please help me. Don't let him hurt me anymore. You're my only
hope.
Paige takes his hand & starts to go with him. Melissa runs forward
trying to stop them.
Melissa: No!
The boy/Source races his hand, suspending Melissa mid-air shocking
her with electricity. She groans in pain.
Melissa Ahh!
Realizing the truth Paige pushes Boy/Source down & Melissa falls
down. The others all go over & help her up. The clock chimes in the
background.
Piper: Sweetie? Okay. Come on. Come on.
The boy disappears & the Source reposes Shane, who stands up.
Shane/Source: I guess bloods thicker than evil.
Shane/Source looks at the clock & goes outta Shane, who falls to
the ground, revealing his true self in his black robe.
Source: I broke the Charmed Ones before having Prue & Phoebe killed. I'll
do it again. Besides, it’s not a complete loss. Thanks to Belthazor.
Hearing this everyone except Paige look horrified.
Andy: What did you do to him?
Cortez: Oh my God.
The Source, Leo, Paige, Andy, Melissa & Piper turn seeing Cortez
standing near the front door with a video camera. He's amazed at
what he sees.
Melissa: Inspector whaddya doing here?
Piper: Get out.
As Cortez reaches for his gun, the Source fires a fireball at him,
knocking him on the coat rack. He screams. He's knocked on a
hanger. The gang gasp. Cortez falls down, revealing blood on the
hanger. The Source flames out. The others race to Cortez. Leo
kneels down beside him.
Cortez: Looks like evil wins again, huh?
Leo: Not if I can help it.
He heals him. Cortez is shocked.
Paige: How'd you do that?
Leo helps a shocked Cortez up.
Melissa: Leo’s a guardian angel called a white lighter. They help
guide, train & protect witches as well as protect humans & heal
them when hurt by evil. I used to be Prue & Phoebe’s one before
they were killed.
Piper: We better find Cole.
All, except Cortez, leave. He checks his used to be wound & the
video camera.
Near South Bay Social Services
Cole’s lying on the ground, nearly dead.
Melissa: Cole! Its Mel can you hear me? Where are you?
She spots him & runs over to him. She kneels down beside him.
Andy: (Worried) Oh my god.
Placing her hand on his arm Melissa feels for a pulse.
Melissa: (Worried) He’s very weak.
She lays his head in her lap. Piper freezes Cole.
Piper: Heal him.
Leo: I can’t it's against the rules. White lighters are not allowed to heal demons.
Piper: Evil ones yes but Cole’s not that is he Leo? Come on he’s dying here.
Leo: (Shaking his head) I’m sorry Piper.
Piper: Screw the rules Leo. The Elders owe us.
Melissa: Dad can’t heal him on his own mom.
Paige: Why not?
Melissa: Because Cole’s half demon half human. He needs two white
lighters to do that or one white lighter one half white lighter.
Andy: Meaning Paige could if she has the power.
Melissa: (Shaking her head) Not really since the trigger for healing’s love & the fact Paige hardly knows Cole or you she wouldn’t be able to activate that yet.
Piper: But you could if you both switched powers.
Melissa: & everyone else’s to you know the spell mom.
Piper: Alright then what if you healed Cole yourself by channelling Paige’s power through you. Could that work?
Melissa: Maybe.
Piper: Then do it.
Melissa: Okay erm Paige, Dad.
The both of them kneel down with Mel beside Cole.
Paige: So what do we do?
Melissa: You both hold hands whilst you’re other one takes mine then dad & I place our other ones over
his wound.
They both do so.
Melissa: Alright let’s see erm. IN THIS NIGHT AND IN THIS HOUR LET ME CHANNEL PAIGE'S POWERS.
Looking down at Cole the spell works as Leo & Mel’s hands glow bright as his wound heals. Cole unfreezes & gasps for air. The gang look happy he’s alive.
Paige: Oh my god it, worked. I did well. I mean we did well.
Piper: Yes you did very well Paige. Let's just hope it wasn't all for
nothing.
She helps Paige stand up as Leo & Melissa stand up too.
San Francisco PD Station
Cortez comes in with his video camera. Darryl, sitting at his desk,
watches him. Cortez looks at him. He looks over to the Captain.
Cortez goes over to Darryl & hesitates for a moment before giving
him the tape, which he takes. Cortez leaves. Darryl sighs but stops
when he sees Andy walk in & goes over to him.
Andy & Prue’s Room Sometime Later
The gang look on solemnly as Andy’s packing some stuff into his
suitcase.
Melissa: (Upset) I can’t believe your leaving uncle Andy. You don’t
have to go.
Andy: I have to Mel. Everything I cared for most is dead. I can’t stay
here its too painful.
Piper: Where will you go?
Andy: New York. I gotta transfer there.
Cole: What about Darryl?
Andy: We said our goodbyes earlier at the station.
Leo: We’ll miss you mate.
Andy: & I’ll miss you all very much.
Piper & Melissa come forward & hug him.
Melissa: You better remember to keep in touch.
Andy: I will do I promise.
Clubroom
The crowd inside including Paige look towards the stage as Fletch
the bartender announces the act for this evening.
Fletch: Good evening ladies & gentlemen & welcome to P Three let’s
give it up for our own home grown gal Melissa Hale.
The crowd cheer as Melissa steps towards the microphone & speaks
into it.
Melissa: Thank you everyone I hope your all enjoying your evening.
I’d like to dedicate this song to two very special people whom I lost
recently but will always forever be in my heart. Prue & Phoebe
Halliwell.
The crowd whoop & cheer in remembrance of their names. The band

the microphone. The crowd & Melissa’s family listen on attentively as
she sings the song.
Verse 1
Time, sometimes the time just slips away & you’re left with
yesterday.
Left with the memories I, I'll always think of you and smile.
& be happy for the time I had you with me.
Though we go our separate ways I won't forget so don't forget.
The memories we made.
Chorus
Please remember, please remember.
I was there for you & you were there for me.
Please remember, our time together.
The time was yours and mine & we were wild & free.
Please remember, please remember me.

Goodbye, there's just no sadder word to say & it's sad to walk away.
With just the memories who's to know what might have been.
We'll leave behind a life & time we'll never know again.

me.
We took each day & made it shine we wrote our names across the
sky.
We ride so fast, we ride so free & I had you & you had me.
Please remember, Please remember.
After a moments silence the crowd cheer then lower down.
Melissa: Thank you very much.
She steps off the stage & goes over to Piper, Leo & Cole who are
sitting over in the corner of the club. Megan A waitress, brings the
boys their drinks.
Cole: Oh good, thank you.
Leo: Thanks, too. Hey sweetie.
Melissa comes over & sits next to Leo.
Melissa: Hey dad.
Cole: That was a good thing you done there Mel.
Piper: Yeah you gave Prue & Phoebe a lot of justice.
Melissa: Cheers thanks. I hope I did to.
Leo: Huh feels good to be here again.
Cole: Feels good to be anywhere again.
He chuckles a little remembering the times he & Phoebe were here.
Piper: Yeah it does. Although you gave us quite a scare back there.
Good thing Mel knew about the whole two white lighter healing
demons thing from when she’d healed you before with her white
lighter in the future.
Melissa: Yeah it was although I do not want that happening again
anytime soon.
Cole: Oh I’ll be careful next time, don’t worry.
Leo sees Piper looking a little distant.
Leo: You okay?
Piper: I'm not sure.
Leo: Prue & Phoebe?
Piper: Yeah. We barely got through the funeral & then everything
went crazy. We haven't had a chance to mourn yet. & that's just not
right.
Cole: We'll have the rest of our lives for that.
Piper: Yeah but I'm not sure about continuing on with this destiny
thing though. I need sometime to think about it. I hope you're okay
with that.
Melissa: I’m okay with it. We won’t fight anymore demons until
you’re ready.
Piper: Thanks. I hope you're okay with it too sweetie.
Leo: They mayn’t be, but I am which’s a good’ thing considering.
Mel: Considering what dad?
Leo looks down then back up before answering.
Leo: Well if the rumours I heard are true then Shax is still alive.
To say Mel, Cole & Piper were shocked was an understatement at the very least.
Cole: But they vanquished him with Paige?
Leo: Apparently not from what my boss’s source said.
Piper shook her head not believing stating.
Piper: No that's not possible he went poof.
Mel: Unless maybe we just defeated him & not vanquished him really.
Piper: How? We said the power of three spell.
Cole: Yeah but it takes more than just saying a spell to make that up though right like the family bond you had with your sisters Piper.
Piper shrugs her shoulders wondering.
Piper: So what's that got to with Shax then?
Mel: Well if the bonds not there then those types of spells won't work then obviously.
Piper: Meaning everything we did was for nothing then? My sisters died for nothing?
Leo shacks his head conservatively saying.
Leo: No it just means that until you, Mel & Paige form the bond you'll have to be more careful when it comes to upper level demons & the Source.
Piper: & what about those two then?
Mel takes her hand replying.
Mel: We'll get them in time mom, don't worry.
Paige walks up to them.
Paige: So does this mean I get free drinks now?
Melissa chuckles a little.
Paige: Oh, I didn't mean it like that. It's not that I drink really or…
Okay. I'm just goanna go.
She begins to leave, but Leo stands up & stops her.
Leo: No, Paige. You belong here, remember?
Paige: You sure? I don't wanna intrude.
Melissa: No your family come on sit right here.
Cole goes & stands next to Leo as Paige sits down in between Piper
& Melissa.
Cole: Okay, so, uh, maybe Leo & I should go uh… pretend like we
got something better to do.
Piper: Thanks guys.
Cole: Yeah.
He & Leo leave.
Paige: I won't stay long. I just wanted to, uh, come by & thank you.
Melissa: For what?
Paige: For what? You mean, beside from saving my life.
She chuckles.
Paige: I feel like I should bake you a cake or something.
Piper: Do you cook?
Paige: No, no. Not really.
Melissa: So how's Shane?
Paige: He's okay, I guess, except I'm not to sure he wants to see
me anymore.
Melissa: Oh, I'm sorry.
Paige: No. Can't say I blame him. You know? He doesn't know
exactly what happened to him, but he knows its something bad &
he knows it's somehow connected to me.
Piper: Yeah, well, you're not truly one of us until you've dated a
demon, so, welcome to the club.
Melissa: Can I ask you a question?
Paige: Hm-mmm.
Melissa: Why did you come to Prue & Phoebe’s funeral? I mean, you
never even met them, right?
Paige: No. I never did. I don't want this to be taken the wrong way,
but... I just feel like a part of me lost them too & I just... I felt drawn
to her, to all you guys. I guess it was just a part of me trying to find out who I was.
Melissa Yeah I can see why you looked familiar.
Paige: Familiar?
Melissa: When I saw you at the funeral it felt like I knew you from
somewhere then when I heard who you really were I recognised
the look.
Paige: Why?
Melissa: Because you look like your dad.
Hearing this Paige’s looks a little shocked.
Paige: (Shocked) My dad as in my real dad. You know him?
Piper: We meet once.
Paige: & he’s a?
Melissa: White lighter? He was.
Paige: Was?
Piper: He died earlier this year protecting Prue from a demon. I’m
sorry.
Paige: That’s okay. I didn’t really know him or mom so.
Piper & Melissa look at each other.
Piper: Come on. There's something we need to show you.
Paige: Show me what?
Melissa: What good magic can do.
They get up & leave.
Attic
Melissa lights the last two candles in a circle & then joins Piper by
the Book of Shadows as Paige watches on.
Piper/Melissa: HERE THESE WORDS. HEAR MY CRY SPIRITS FROM THE
OTHER. COME TO ME, I SUMMON THEE. CROSS NOW THE GREAT
DIVIDE.
Two lights revealing the ghosts of Patty Halliwell & Sam Wilder
appear in the room.
Melissa: Hey guys there's someone here you might wanna meet.
Sam & Patty look at Paige.
Sam: Paige.
Melissa: These are your real parents. Sam Wilder and Patty Halliwell.
Paige: Sam? Patty?
The two ghosts step outside the circle becoming real. They both hug
Paige, who smiles at them after the hug.
Patty: Welcome home sweetie.
They hug her again as Piper & Melissa watch on the tender moment.
