PHOEBE: PAIGE, THERE YOU ARE! HAS ANYONE GOTTEN HURT? NOT AS FAR AS I CAN TELL. HAVE YOU SEEN AGENT BRODY YET? WHAT ARE WE DOING HERE? WELL, HE SAID FOR US TO MEET HIM HERE. HE NEEDED TO TALK TO US ABOUT SOMETHING IMPORTANT. YEAH, BUT, PAIGE, IT'S A FIRE. SO? SO WE DON'T DO FIRES. FIREMEN DO FIRES. WE DO FIREBALLS. LOOK, HE SAID IT WAS SOMETHING CONNECTED TO THIS NEW POWER THING HE'S BEEN TALKING ABOUT. YEAH, WELL, WE'RE NOT BRODY'S ANGELS. I'M SORRY. I'M SORRY. IT'S JUST I'M STRESSED, IT'S MY FIRST WEEK BACK AT WORK, AND I HAVE A LOT OF CATCHING UP TO DO. FOLLOW ME. KEEP AN EYE ON THE THIRD FLOOR. PHOEBE: WAIT--WHY? BECAUSE SOMEBODY'S TRAPPED INSIDE, AND IF I'M RIGHT, HE'S GONNA JUMP AND HE'S NOT GONNA GET HURT. PAIGE: HOW DO YOU KNOW? IT'S JUST A HUNCH. JUST A HUNCH, HUH, AGENT BRODY? KYLE. WHATEVER. LOOK, I DON'T MEAN TO BE RUDE, BUT WE DON'T REALLY KNOW YOU. I KNOW YOU WERE RIGHT ABOUT THE WHOLE NEW POWER THING, HE'S GONNA JUMP! BUT I-- HELP! BRING THE LADDER OVER HERE! (EERIE WHISPERING) PHOEBE: WHOA! OK, HOW DID YOU KNOW THAT? BECAUSE THAT'S THE FOURTH PERSON IT'S HAPPENED TO IN THE LAST MONTH. WHICH MEANS IF THE PATTERN HOLDS, HE'S ABOUT TO DIE. PATTERN? WHAT PATTERN? WHAT? ALL RIGHT, GUYS. STAY ON THE SURVIVOR. AND KEEP RECORDING. GOD, IS HE TALKING TO THAT HELICOPTER? HE'S REALLY COOL. GO! I'M OK! EMT NEEDS TO CHECK YOU OUT FIRST. DOWN THERE. (COUGHING) SIR? SIR, HOLD ON A SECOND. SIR, WAIT-- NOOOO! STOP. WATCH FOR THE-- WHO ARE YOU? A THIEF. LOOKS LIKE YOU'RE ON YOUR OWN. NO, NO, NO, WAIT! DAMN IT! I STILL DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW HE KNEW THIS WAS GONNA HAPPEN. I DON'T KNOW WHY WE COULDN'T HAVE STOPPED IT. STOPPED WHAT? A MAN JUMPED OUT OF A BURNING BUILDING ONLY TO GET HIT BY A TRUCK? WHAT'S THE CONNECTION THERE? I'M HOPING KYLE KNOWS. OK, YOU KNOW, CAN WE PLEASE CALL HIM AGENT BRODY UNTIL WE CAN TRUST HIM? I TRUST HIM. YOU OK? NO. JUST WISH I KNEW WHY THIS KEEPS HAPPENING. WELL, YOU SAID SOMETHING ABOUT A PATTERN, RIGHT? YEAH. EVERY TIME SOMETHING UNUSUAL HAPPENS, I INVESTIGATE. THE MORE UNUSUAL IT IS, THE MORE IT TENDS TO LEAD ME TOWARDS THIS NEW POWER I WAS TELLING YOU ABOUT. DOES THIS NEW POWER HAVE A NAME? I DON'T KNOW YET. YOU GUYS WANNA WALK? SO YOU THINK THAT WHOLE THING IS WHAT'S KILLING THESE INNOCENTS? WELL, I DON'T THINK THEY'RE LITERALLY RUNNING THEM DOWN IF THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE ASKING, BUT I DO THINK THEY'RE DOING SOMETHING TO CAUSE THEM TO GET KILLED. HMM. WHAT KIND OF SOMETHING? I DON'T KNOW. BUT WHATEVER IT IS, IT'S GOT SOMETHING TO DO WITH TAKING POWERS, 'CAUSE THAT'S WHAT THEY'RE ALL ABOUT. WAIT. POWERS? INNOCENTS DON'T HAVE POWERS. IF THEY DID, THEY WOULDN'T NEED US. ALL I KNOW IS THAT THINGS THIS UNUSUAL DON'T JUST HAPPEN LIKE THIS OVER AND OVER AGAIN. SOMETHING'S GOING ON HERE. ANOTHER HUNCH? DON'T KNOCK IT, PHOEBE. MY HUNCHES LED ME TO YOU. LOOK. I CAN GUARANTEE YOU THIS IS NOT GONNA BE THE LAST PERSON TO MIRACULOUSLY ESCAPE A FIRE ONLY TO DIE MOMENTS LATER. IF YOU GUYS WANNA HELP ME FIGURE THIS ONE OUT... YOU KNOW WHERE TO FIND ME. WHAT DO YOU THINK? I THINK HE'S GOT SOME STYLE. HOW DARE YOU SUMMON ME. YOU SAID TO CALL IF I EVER WANTED TO CHALLENGE YOU. YOU THINK YOU ARE READY TO CHALLENGE ME? THE LAST TIME YOU TRIED IT, I SPARED YOUR LIFE. THIS TIME, I MAY NOT BE SO MERCIFUL. NOTHING VENTURED, NOTHING GAINED. YOU'VE BEEN AROUND HUMANS TOO LONG. WHAT MAKES YOU THINK YOU'RE READY? LIKE YOU SAID, I'VE BEEN AROUND HUMANS. SHALL WE? TALK TO ME. YOU'VE COME FAR QUICKLY. AAH! NOT FAR ENOUGH. I NEED MORE! MORE WHAT? MORE GUARDIANS. I STEAL THE ONES WHO HELP SAVE THEIR HUMANS SO THAT THEY CAN HELP ME INSTEAD. ALL THIS JUST TO DEFEAT ME? NO. SO THAT I CAN PROTECT MYSELF FROM THE GREAT THREAT YOU TAUGHT US WAS COMING. NOTHING CAN PROTECT YOU FROM THAT. UNLESS YOU GO INTO HIDING UNTIL-- I WON'T HIDE! IF DEMONS DON'T STAND UP TO THEM, WHO WILL? I JUST NEED MORE. COULD YOU DO ME A FAVOUR AND CALL REX AND HAVE THEM DO A SOUND CHECK BEFORE THE SHOW? I DON'T WANT TO MESS UP THE DONNAS' ALBUM RELEASE PARTY. IT'S GONNA BE PACKED. PIPER, ARE YOU EVEN LISTENING TO ME? YEAH, YEAH. BRODY, FIRES, HUNCHES. I GOT MY OWN PROBLEMS. ARE YOU SURE ENOLA GRADUATED ALREADY? YEAH, I'M POSITIVE. WHY? BECAUSE SHE MIGHT BE THE ONLY ONE WHO CAN SAVE LEO. WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? WELL, SHE HELPED YOU SEE YOUR FUTURE WITH A VISION QUEST, RIGHT? GAVE YOU SOMETHING TO LOOK FORWARD TO, LIFE AFTER DEMONS-- THAT'S WHAT LEO NEEDS. YEAH, BUT THERE'S NO GUARANTEES THAT LEO WOULD SEE THAT. I MEAN, A VISION QUEST CAN TAKE YOU ANYWHERE, AND SOMETIMES IT CAN EVEN BE DANGEROUS. COULDN'T BE ANY MORE DANGEROUS THAN WHAT HE'S GOING THROUGH RIGHT NOW IF THAT STUPID NEW POWER IS STILL AFTER HIM. A VISION QUEST WON'T CHANGE THAT. NO, BUT IT MAY SHOW HIM A WAY TO FIGHT THEM. PHOEBE, HE'S ALONE AND HE'S SCARED, AND HE'S FORGOTTEN WHO HE IS. I'M AFRAID IF I CAN'T HELP HIM NOW, MY CHILDREN ARE GONNA LOSE THEIR FATHER. IT'S STILL RISKY. YEAH, BUT IT'S A RISK I'M WILLING TO TAKE. OK. WHAT ARE YOU DOING? I'M MAKING THE VISION QUEST POTION. SHE SHOWED ME HOW TO DO IT. WHAT ABOUT BRODY? PAIGE CAN TAKE CARE OF BRODY. I THINK SHE LIKES TAKING CARE OF BRODY IF YOU KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT. BESIDES, THIS... IS FAMILY. (KNOCK ON DOOR) NOBODY'S HOME. YOU'RE QUITE THE LIAR. SORRY. DIDN'T REALISE IT WAS YOU. ACTUALLY, I'M SURPRISED YOU EVEN SHOWED UP. REALLY? WHY WOULD THAT BE? I THINK IT'S PRETTY CLEAR THAT YOUR SISTER DOESN'T TRUST ME VERY MUCH. SHOULD SHE? YEAH, I THINK SHE SHOULD. I THINK I'VE PROVEN MYSELF. I'VE SAVED YOU FROM GETTING EXPOSED MORE THAN ONCE. BY THE WAY, WHERE IS INSPECTOR SHERIDAN? COME ON. DOES IT REALLY MATTER? UH...IT DOES IF YOU HURT HER. I'M NOT HERE TO HURT ANYBODY, PAIGE. I'M HERE TO KEEP THEM FROM GETTING HURT, REMEMBER? THE FACT THAT YOU KNOW THAT PEOPLE MAY DIE IS EXACTLY WHAT MAKES YOU SO SUSPICIOUS, AGENT BRODY. KYLE. WHAT IS THAT? THAT IS A BIRD'S-EYE VIEW OF THE VICTIM JUST BEFORE HE STEPPED OFF OF THE CURB. NOW, WE SHOT THIS WITH THE FASTEST DIGITAL IMAGING EQUIPMENT KNOWN TO MAN ` OR, AT LEAST, HOMELAND SECURITY, ANYWAY. NOW, IF YOU LOOK AT IT IN NORMAL LIGHT, IT APPEARS AS THOUGH HE'S ALONE. I THROW AN E.M. FILTER ON IT... HE'S NOT. WHAT ARE THOSE? IF I HAD TO GUESS, I'D SAY THE LIGHT ONE'S A PROTECTOR OF SOME KIND. PROTECTOR OF WHAT? LIKE SOME SORT OF GUARDIAN ANGEL THING? MM-HMM. THAT'S ONE WAY OF PUTTING IT. WHAT, YOU DON'T BELIEVE IN 'EM? YOU DO? GIVEN ALL THE SCRAPES THAT I'VE SLIPPED OUT OF, IT'S THE ONLY REASON WHY I THINK I'M STILL ALIVE. MY GUESS IS THAT THAT'S THE POWER THAT THE DARK FIGURE WANTS-- PEOPLE WHO HAVE ESPECIALLY STRONG PROTECTORS. THAT WOULD EXPLAIN WHY THEY MIRACULOUSLY SURVIVE SOMETHING AND IN THE NEXT MOMENT DON'T. WHAT? NOTHING. SO, UH... HOW DO WE FIND OUT IF THAT DARK FIGURE IS WHAT YOU THINK IT IS? WE WAIT FOR THE NEXT FIRE. INTERESTED? ALPHA: THERE'S NOWHERE ELSE TO TURN. GAMMA: NOWHERE ELSE TO GO. LEAVE ME ALONE. GAMMA: LET GO OF ALL YOU KNOW. ALPHA: DON'T RESIST US. WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS TO ME? WHAT DO YOU WANT? PERHAPS WE'VE PUSHED HIM TOO FAR. WE HAVE NO CHOICE. HE MUST JOIN US WILLINGLY, BUT FIRST MUST SEE THERE IS NO OTHER OPTION. BUT HIS WILL IS STRONG, EVEN FOR AN ELDER. WHICH IS WHY HE'S SO VALUABLE TO US. WHAT IS IT? THERE MAY BE ANOTHER WAY, ANOTHER OPPORTUNITY TO SHOW HIM THAT ONE CANNOT IGNORE THE TRUTH FOREVER. LEO? LEO? YOU SEE, I KNOW HE CAN HEAR ME. HE JUST DOESN'T WANNA COME. LET ME GIVE THIS A TRY. LEO! LEO, YOU GET YOUR BUTT DOWN HERE RIGHT NOW OR WE WILL SUMMON YOUR ASS! NICELY DONE. IT'S NOT SAFE FOR ME TO BE HERE. YOU KNOW THAT. WE'LL TAKE THAT RISK. WHAT ABOUT THE BOYS? THEY'RE AT SCHOOL. NICE TRY, THOUGH. WE THINK WE FOUND A WAY TO HELP YOU. HELP ME WHAT? HELP YOU STOP RUNNING. IT'S A VISION QUEST. A VISION QUEST. (LAUGHS) NO WAY. LEO, DON'T YOU DARE LEAVE. THIS IS NOT JUST ABOUT YOU. YOU ARE A FATHER AND SOMEBODY'S HUSBAND, TOO. WHICH IS WHY IT'S TOO RISKY FOR ME TO BE HERE. YEAH, EXCEPT YOU'RE THE ONE THAT'S IN DANGER. I'M AN ELDER. I CAN TAKE CARE OF MYSELF. ACTUALLY, YOU HAVEN'T REALLY BEEN YOURSELF LATELY. LOOK, LEO, THE VISION QUEST HELPED ME, AND WE'RE THINKING MAYBE IT COULD HELP YOU, TOO, YOU KNOW? WON'T STOP THE CREATURES. HOW DO YOU KNOW? YOU'VE TRIED EVERYTHING ELSE. WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO LOSE--YOUR MIND, YOUR FAMILY, YOUR LIFE? YOU'VE ALREADY LOST ALL THOSE THINGS, HAVEN'T YOU? GO AHEAD, TELL ME I'M WRONG. I'LL GO GET THE POTION. OK, WHEN I SAID I'D HELP YOU, THIS IS NOT WHAT I HAD IN MIND. JUST GO. I'LL BE OK. ARE YOU CRAZY? HOW IS THIS GONNA BE OK? BECAUSE I BELIEVE IN MY GUARDIAN, REMEMBER? LOOK, IF I'M RIGHT, WHOEVER SET THIS FIRE IS OUT THERE WAITING FOR MINE, SO JUST SAY YOUR SPELL WHEN I'M SAFE AND WE'LL SEE WHAT HAPPENS. DON'T WORRY ABOUT ME. IT'S A LITTLE LATE FOR THAT! WHICH WAY? I'M FINE. HOMELAND SECURITY. PAIGE! PAIGE! GO! UH... SHOW ME WHAT THE EVIL SEES EVEN IF AT LIGHTNING SPEEDS. SO IT IS TRUE. WELL, WELL, WELL. WHAT HAVE WE HERE? A WITCH? YOU'RE NOT GETTING HIS GUARDIAN. NOW, WHY WOULD I WANT HIS WHEN I CAN HAVE YOURS? WHAT'S THE MATTER, HUH? WHAT'S WRONG? I THINK I'M IN BIG TROUBLE. NO, I KNOW, ELISE, BUT SOMETHING CAME UP. YES, AGAIN, BUT YOU DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT MY COLUMN. (CLATTERING) PAIGE: OW, OW, OW! I PROMISE IT'LL-- UH, I GOTTA GO. WH--PAIGE? WHAT'S GOIN' ON? PAI--OH, MY GOD! WHAT HAPPENED? BRODY: PAR FOR THE COURSE, UNFORTUNATELY. PAR FOR WHAT COURSE, AND WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE? TRYING TO PROTECT YOUR SISTER. I LOST MY GUARDIAN ANGEL. YOU LOST YOUR WHO? PROTECTION SPIRITS, GUIDES. THEY'RE WITH US ALL THE TIME. YES. I KNOW WHAT GUARDIAN ANGELS ARE. THANK YOU. YEAH, BUT IT'S NOT JUST THE HALLMARK THING. IT'S REAL. I ACTUALLY SAW MINE. I'M SURPRISED WE'VE NOT SEEN THEM BEFORE. YEAH, THE PROBLEM IS WITHOUT THEM, PEOPLE TEND TO BE VULNERABLE. IN MY CASE, ACCIDENT-PRONE. OK, I DON'T UNDERSTAND. HOW DID YOU LOSE YOUR GUARDIAN ANGEL? WELL, ACTUALLY, WE TRIED TO LOSE MINE, BUT THEN THIS DEMON-- IT WAS A DEMON, RIGHT? DEMON. YEAH, DEMON COMES ALONG AND TAKES HERS INSTEAD. CAN I TALK TO YOU FOR A SECOND, PLEASE, OVER HERE? WHAT IS GOING ON? WHAT'S GOING ON IS THAT WE FIGURED OUT WHAT IS KILLING ALL OF THOSE INNOCENTS. THE DEMON IS STEALING THEIR PROTECTORS. WE THINK IT'S SOMEHOW CONNECTED TO THIS WHOLE NEW POWER THING. AND LET ME GUESS. THIS IS ANOTHER ONE OF HIS HUNCHES? NO. IT'S ONE OF MINE. BUT YOU HAVE TO ADMIT, ALL OF HIS HAVE PANNED OUT SO FAR, RIGHT? YEAH. SO FAR, THEY HAVE. SO WHAT'S THE NEXT MOVE? WELL, I'M GONNA GO I.D. THE DEMON. HAVE YOU SEEN THE BOOK OF SHADOWS? IT WASN'T UPSTAIRS. WHY? YOU'RE NOT GONNA SHOW HIM THE BOOK OF SHADOWS, ARE YOU? YEAH, I AM. I TRUST HIM. I TOLD YOU THAT. IF IT CONSIDERS HIM A THREAT, IT'LL JUST ZAP HIM. DON'T WORRY. PAIGE, YOU'RE MY SISTER. I HAVE TO WORRY. WELL, IF IT MAKES YOU FEEL BETTER, WHY DON'T YOU JUST COME WITH US? I WISH I COULD, BUT I CAN'T. LEO NEEDS SOME... SERIOUS HELP. WHAT'S NEW? JUST PROMISE ME YOU'RE GONNA BE CAREFUL. I PROMISE. I THINK I CAN TAKE CARE OF ONE LITTLE DEMON. I MEANT AGENT BRODY. THE BOOK'S IN THE KITCHEN. EVERYTHING OK? OH, YEAH. I'M FINE. NO PROBLEM. SHE LOST HER WHAT? AGENT BRODY IS WATCHING HER. SHE'S OK. WE CAN'T LEAVE HER ALONE IF SHE LOST HER GUARDIAN A-- PHOEBE SAID SHE'S FINE. NOW, WOULD YOU PLEASE FOCUS? WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO? DON'T FIGHT IT. JUST LET IT TAKE YOU TO WHERE YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE. WHAT IF I WANNA GET OUT? YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO, NOT UNTIL YOU SEE WHAT YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO SEE. JUST SIP IT. NOW WHAT? MAKE YOURSELF COMFORTABLE. CLOSE YOUR EYES AND JUST LET IT ALL GO. (SCREAMING, GUNFIRE) WE GOTTA STOP THE BLEEDING! HE'S GOING INTO SHOCK! (AIRPLANE ENGINE, GUNFIRE) I NEED A MORPHINE KIT! IS THERE A MEDIC OUT IN THE FIELD? WHAT'S GOING ON? WHAT AM I DOING HERE? DON'T WORRY, DAD. I'M GONNA HELP YOU THROUGH THIS. CHRIS? CHRIS? THANK YOU. YEAH. GUESS I NEVER KNEW HOW MUCH MY GUARDIAN ANGEL ACTUALLY HELPED ME, EVEN WITH THE LITTLE STUFF. DON'T WORRY. WE'LL FIND HER. I HOPE. YOU KNOW, MAYBE IT'D HELP IF YOU LOOKED AT THE BOOK WITH ME. FEEL BETTER? WHAT DO YOU MEAN? WELL, I ASSUME THE BOOK WON'T LET ANYTHING EVIL TOUCH IT. MOST MAGICAL TOMES DON'T. WHAT DO I HAVE TO DO TO PROVE THAT I'M NOT A THREAT TO YOU? LOOK, I'M-- I'M SORRY. I AM. I CAN'T SEEM TO TRUST MYSELF RIGHT NOW, LET ALONE ANYBODY ELSE. WELL, THE GUARDIANS DID MORE THAN KEEP YOU UPRIGHT. THEY'RE YOUR INNER VOICE, YOUR CONSCIENCE, INSTINCTS, AND WITHOUT THEM, YOU TEND TO GET A LITTLE LOST. YOU REALLY DO BELIEVE IN THEM, DON'T YOU? YEAH. I'M A BELIEVER, ALL RIGHT. HUNTING THE NEW POWER FOR YEARS HAS MADE ME REALISE THAT THERE ARE SOME AWFUL THINGS IN THIS WORLD. I JUST LIKE TO THINK THAT THERE'S SOME GOOD THINGS, TOO, TO BALANCE IT OUT. LIKE YOU. YOU FOUND IT. "CELERITY DEMON. CELERITY DEMONS "ARE POWERFUL BEINGS WHO CAN MOVE AT THE SPEED OF LIGHT AND FEED OFF LESSER DEMONS." YEAH, BUT GUARDIAN ANGELS ARE HARDLY LESSER DEMONS. WELL, WHETHER THEY ARE OR THEY AREN'T, HE'S ABLE TO STEAL THEM. THE QUESTION IS WHY? WELL DONE. WITCHES HAVE POWERFUL GUARDIANS... ESPECIALLY A CHARMED ONE'S. HOW CAN YOU BE SURE THAT SHE WAS A CHARMED ONE? IT'S THE ONLY EXPLANATION. IT'S THE MOST POWERFUL ONE I POSSESS. STILL... IT WILL NOT BE ENOUGH WHEN THE AVATARS COME. PERHAPS NOT. UNLESS I GET THE OTHER 2. AFTER ALL, LEGEND HOLDS THAT THE SISTERS ARE MAGICALLY CONNECTED. STANDS TO REASON THAT THEIR GUARDIANS SHOULD BE AS WELL. HOW WILL YOU GET THEM? I'LL JUST...LISTEN TO THE ONE I'VE GOT. SHE'LL WHISPER TO ME WHEN THE OTHERS NEED THEIR GUARDIANS THE MOST, WHEN THEY'RE THE MOST VULNERABLE. YOU'VE TAUGHT ME WELL, AKU. I HOPE... WELL ENOUGH. WHY ISN'T HE SAYING ANYTHING? SO YOU THINK HE'S ALL RIGHT? YES. I THINK HE'S DOING EXACTLY WHAT HE NEEDS TO BE DOING. YOU SURE YOU DON'T WANNA HELP ME OUT HERE? NO. I'M FINE RIGHT HERE. SWEETIE, YOU SAID IT YOURSELF. THIS IS SOMETHING THAT HE NEEDS TO DO. YEAH, WELL, I CAN HAVE SECOND THOUGHTS, CAN'T I? WHAT IF SOMETHING HAPPENS TO HIM? WELL, HOPEFULLY HIS GUARDIAN ANGELS ARE TAKING CARE OF HIM. I DON'T THINK ANGELS HAVE ANGELS, PHOEBE. IT'S REDUNDANT. YOU JUST PROTECT OURS SO WE CAN PROTECT HIM. SO I DON'T UNDERSTAND. IF I'M IN THE PAST, WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE? I'M GUIDING YOU. SO YOU'RE REAL? NO. BUT I REPRESENT SOMETHING THAT IS. I DIED IN YOUR ARMS, DAD, KILLED BY EVERYTHING THAT YOU THOUGHT WAS GOOD. I'M YOUR ROOT PAIN, OK? AND I'M GONNA BE STICKING WITH YOU UNTIL YOU'RE READY TO LET ME GO. HOW WILL I KNOW WHEN THAT IS? COME ON. LET'S CHECK OUT SOME PARTS OF YOUR LIFE THAT YOU REALLY NEED TO REMEMBER. DO I HAVE A CHOICE? HEY, IT'S YOUR VISION QUEST. IT'S UP TO YOU. COME ON. WHERE ARE WE NOW? I NEVER STOPPED LOVING YOU. THAT FEELING'S WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT, DAD. YOU DIED FIGHTING EVIL IN THE WAR, THEN YOU WERE REBORN AS A WHITELIGHTER TO FIGHT EVIL AGAIN. THAT LED YOU TO MOM... LOVE... TO ALL THAT'S GOOD. PAIGE: IS THAT WHAT I THINK IT IS? TO THE DAY WYATT WAS BORN. YES, IT IS. HERE YOU GO, MAMA. HI. HI, LITTLE GUY. WHAT ARE YOU DOING? LOOK WHAT WE DID. A MIRACLE. MY LITTLE MIRACLE. TO THE DAY WHEN I WAS BORN. OH, LOOK. HE'S BEAUTIFUL. BABY CHRISTOPHER, THAT'S YOUR BROTHER. LOOKS LIKE WE DIDN'T LOSE HIM AFTER ALL. DO YOU UNDERSTAND NOW? ALL THE PAIN, ALL THE SACRIFICES, IT'S ALL BEEN FOR GOOD. THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE ALL ABOUT, DAD. THAT'S WHAT YOU'VE ALWAYS BEEN ABOUT. THAT'S WHAT THE FUTURE'S ABOUT, TOO. LOOK AT YOUR BROTHER. YOU JUST NEED TO BELIEVE IN THAT AGAIN. PAIGE: CAN WE SEE HER? GO. YOUR FAMILY'S WAITING FOR YOU. PIPER. HEY. HOW YOU FEELING? GOOD. WAIT. WHAT? WHAT IS IT? UNH! LEO? LEO, WAKE UP. LEO! LEO, WAKE UP! WHO ARE YOU? WHAT DO YOU WANT? I WANT YOU TO SEE THE TRUTH, LEO. I WANT YOU TO SEE THE REAL FUTURE. PIPER: WE'VE GOT TO DO SOMETHING. THERE'S NOTHING THAT WE CAN DO. HE'S BACK IN THE QUEST. ONLY HE CAN GET HIMSELF OUT OF IT. BUT HE WAS JUST OUT. SOMETHING MADE HIM GO BACK IN, SOMETHING HE SAW. I DON'T THINK ANYTHING CAN GET PAST THE CRYSTALS. WHAT ABOUT THE NEW POWER? I DIDN'T SEE ANY FLOATING HEADS. IT DOESN'T MEAN THEY WEREN'T THERE. WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS? WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS TO ME? I WANT TO GET OUT OF HERE. YOU CAN'T LEAVE YET, LEO. YOU'RE NOT READY. YOU HAVEN'T SEEN WHAT YOU NEED TO SEE. WHY ARE YOU HAUNTING ME? HAUNTING? NO. THE CREATURE HEADS WERE A NECESSARY PART OF GUIDING YOU TO THE TRUTH. TO THE TRUTH THAT LIES BEYOND GOOD AND EVIL. TO US. US? AVATARS. WE ARE... A POWER. ONE THAT OFFERS A BETTER WAY, A SOLUTION TO THIS. YOU SEE, LEO, THE FUTURE CHRIS FAILED TO MENTION-- THE DEATH OF ALL THE PEOPLE THAT YOU LOVE, SOMETIMES PEACEFUL... SOMETIMES PAINFUL... BUT ALWAYS INEVITABLE. AND ALL WELL BEFORE THEIR TIME. DEATH IS A PART OF LIFE. NATURAL DEATH, YES. BUT NOT DEATH CAUSED BY THE... POINTLESS, ENDLESS BATTLES BETWEEN GOOD AND EVIL. IT'S NOT POINTLESS. IT'S NECESSARY. AND WHEN GOOD WINS-- WINS? DUALITY IS SELF-PERPETUATING. IT FEEDS ONLY ON ITSELF. THAT IS WHY THE BATTLE HAS BEEN RAGING SINCE THE DAWN OF TIME. THERE IS NO WINNER. THERE CAN BE. HOW? WITH GOOD, THERE IS ALWAYS EVIL. AND SO THE BATTLE NEVER ENDS. NOT UNTIL THERE'S NOTHING LEFT. THAT IS THE FUTURE YOUR FIGHT IS LEADING TO. NOT GOOD NOR EVIL. ONLY NOTHING. NOOOO! NO! LEO. WHO ARE YOU TALKING TO? I'M AFRAID HE CAN'T HEAR YOU. WELL, HE'S HEARING SOMEONE. LEO. LEO! WHAT WAS THAT? STAY HERE. WHY? JUST...STAY. (GUN COCKS) GUESS YOUR GUARDIANS DIDN'T TELL YOU ABOUT THAT. THAT'S WHY I WANT YOURS... SO THESE KINDS OF THINGS DON'T HAPPEN AGAIN. DAMN IT! PAIGE, QUICK! IN HERE! YOU'RE GETTIN' TO BE A PAIN. YOU CAN'T HIDE IN THERE FOREVER! PAIGE? WHAT THE HELL? LEAVE HIM ALONE! NO. THERE'S TOO MUCH AT STAKE. BESIDES, I COULD USE THE LEVERAGE. OH, NO. UNH! YOU'RE NOT A WITCH. WHAT ARE YOU? UNH! I'M A FEDERAL AGENT. HA HA HA! A WHAT? AND YOU KNOW ABOUT ALL THIS? MAGIC? DEMONS? I'M GETTING A QUICK EDUCATION. IT WON'T DO YOU MUCH GOOD. I ONLY NEED YOU LONG ENOUGH FOR THE WITCHES TO ATTEMPT A RESCUE. AND SINCE THEY'RE OBVIOUSLY OTHERWISE OCCUPIED AND DOWN A GUARDIAN, THEY WON'T COME ALL AT ONCE. SOMEONE WILL GET LEFT BEHIND. AND THAT'S WHEN I'LL ATTACK. I'M JUST CURIOUS. (GROANS) WHAT DO YOU WANT WITH ALL THESE GUARDIANS, IF YOU DON'T MIND ME ASKING? I DON'T WANT THEM. I NEED THEM. WORRIED ABOUT THE NEW POWER, ARE WE? YOU KNOW ABOUT THE AVATARS? AVATARS? SO THAT'S WHAT THEY'RE CALLED? YES, THAT'S WHAT THEY'RE CALLED. AND I, FOR ONE, WON'T BE CAST ASIDE BY THEM WHEN THE TIME COMES FOR THEM TO TAKE POWER. WHICH IS WHY I NEED MORE GUARDIANS, WHICH IS THE ONLY REASON I'M KEEPING YOU ALIVE. PHOEBE: SO WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO IF YOU FIND HIM? WHAT DO YOU MEAN, WHAT AM I GOING TO DO? I'M GOING TO SAVE HIM. WE ARE GOING TO SAVE HIM. BUT IT'S A TRAP. THE DEMON SAID SO HIMSELF. HE JUST TOOK HIM FOR LEVERAGE. SO WE'RE JUST GOING TO LET HIM GET KILLED? HE'S NOT GOING TO KILL HIM, OK? HE NEEDS HIM ALIVE. YEAH, BUT FOR HOW LONG? PIPER, HELP ME OUT. I'M WITH PHOEBE HERE. SARPEDON'S REALLY POWERFUL, AND HE'S GOT ALL THOSE GUARDIANS. YEAH, INCLUDING MINE. AND THAT'S WHY YOU'RE NOT THINKING STRAIGHT! PAIGE, WE CAN'T GO AFTER HIM. IT'S RIDICULOUS. YEAH? WELL, I'M NOT JUST GOING TO LET HIM ROT, EITHER. I'LL GO GET HIM MYSELF. (STAMMERS) PAI--OH! KYLE? KYLE? KYLE? KYLE? OK, SO NOW THAT WE KNOW WHERE THEY ARE, ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS MIX UP A NEW VANQUISHING POTION AND GET PAIGE'S SPELL. YEAH, BUT THAT WOULD MEAN WE WOULD HAVE TO GO TO THE BOOK, WHICH IS IN THE KITCHEN AND WHICH ENTAILS US GOING DOWNSTAIRS AWAY FROM THE CRYSTALS, WHICH MEANS THE DEMON COULD SLICE AND DICE US. TRUE, BUT FOR ALL WE KNOW, THE DEMON COULD ALREADY HAVE PAIGE. US GETTING KILLED DOESN'T CHANGE THAT. BESIDES, I CAN'T LEAVE LEO. OK, I KNOW THIS IS REALLY HARD FOR YOU, PIPER, BUT THERE'S NOTHING THAT WE CAN DO TO HELP LEO. HE'S GOT TO FIGHT THIS FIGHT ON HIS OWN. BUT WE CAN HELP PAIGE. ALL RIGHT. LET'S JUST MAKE IT FAST. OK. REMEMBER, IF THE DEMON ATTACKS, GRAB THE AMULET. OH, SURE, YEAH. NO PROBLEM. PHOEBE! UNH-UNH! NEXT. PHOEBE: HEY! WHERE'S YOUR AMULET? NO! LEO. WHAT DO YOU MEAN THIS IS THE END? THE END OF WHAT? THE END OF THE BATTLE BETWEEN GOOD AND EVIL, ITS OUTCOME-- MUTUAL DESTRUCTION, AND THE ETERNAL VOID THAT NECESSARILY FOLLOWS. HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE? I'M AFRAID IT'S UNAVOIDABLE. A FLAWED DESIGN. THERE IS, HOWEVER, ANOTHER WAY, A BETTER WAY. THAT IS WHAT WE REPRESENT, LEO. BUT WE'LL NEED YOUR HELP TO IMPLEMENT IT. AND THE CHARMED ONES, OF COURSE, WHEN THEY'RE READY. WHAT WAY IS THAT? UTOPIA. A WORLD WHERE GOOD AND EVIL NO LONGER EXIST, WHERE THE BATTLE IS BEHIND YOU, BEHIND EVERYONE. A WORLD WHERE YOU AND PIPER NO LONGER HAVE TO SUFFER THROUGH THE OBSTACLES THAT HAVE KEPT YOU APART. WHAT'S THE CATCH? ONLY THE COURAGE TO CHANGE. UNLESS IT'S ALREADY TOO LATE. PIPER. SHE'S NOT HERE, LEO. I'M AFRAID THERE ISN'T MUCH TIME. PIPER? PIPER! (PANTING) NO. WHY DID YOU DO THIS? WE DIDN'T DO THIS, LEO, EVIL DID. IT MIGHT NOT BE TOO LATE, THOUGH, TO REVERSE IT IF YOU'LL JOIN US. YOU CAN SAVE THEM? WE CAN SAVE EVERYONE, LEO, WITH YOUR HELP. SO BE IT. WELCOME TO THE FOLD. WHAT DO I DO NEXT? HEAL THEM. I CAN'T HEAL THEM, THEY'RE DEAD. YOU'RE AN AVATAR NOW, LEO. YOU HAVE ALL YOU NEED. YOU HAVE THE POWERS. LEO? YOU'RE BACK. OHH! UHH! I THOUGHT I WAS... DEAD? WHERE DID YOU GET THAT? OH, FROM THE DEMON, I GUESS. WHAT, SO THAT'S IT? IT'S OVER? IS IT? I'VE NEVER SEEN YOU HEAL ANYONE LIKE THAT, LEO. DID SOMETHING HAPPEN TO YOU? WHAT DO YOU MEAN? IN THE VISION QUEST, YOU SEEMED LIKE YOU WERE IN PAIN. YEAH. WELL... IT'S SOMETHING I HAD TO GO THROUGH, I GUESS, TO SEE THE TRUTH. # I CAN'T BELIEVE SHE BOUGHT IT # SHE GOT TOO CLOSE AND SHE CAUGHT IT # HAD A POINT, BUT SHE FORGOT IT # HOW LONG IS SHE GONNA BE AROUND? # AND HOW LONG DO WE HAVE TO WATCH HER DUMB IT DOWN? # 'CAUSE WHEN IT'S CHEAP, IT FADES FAST # AND HOW LONG DOES SHE THINK IT'S GONNA LAST? # YOU'RE GONNA FALL BEHIND ME # YOU'RE GONNA CRY AND BEG FOR MERCY # 'CAUSE YOU'RE NOT READY, BABY # AND YOU GOT NOTHING ON ME # AND YOU GOT NOTHING ON ME # AND YOU GOT NOTHING ON ME M.C.: COME ON, P-3, GIVE IT UP FOR SAN FRANCISCO'S VERY OWN, THE DONNAS! THANKS FOR GETTING REX TO DO THAT SOUND CHECK. THEY SOUNDED GREAT. YEAH. ACTUALLY, I FORGOT TO DO THAT. WHAT? I WAS VERY BUSY TRYING TO SAVE YOUR HUSBAND. ALL RIGHT. DOWN GIRL. EASY. DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT. I GUESS I GET A LITTLE TESTY WHEN SOMEONE KILLS ME, YOU KNOW. OH, COME ON. WE WEREN'T KILLED, WE WERE JUST MAIMED. LEO CAN'T HEAL THE DEAD. HEY, LADIES. SORRY I'M LATE. OOH, YOU GUYS LOOK GREAT FOR BEING RECENTLY DECEASED. WE WEREN'T DEAD. AH, FORGET IT. OH, HEY-- (GLASSES CLINK) OOH! WAITRESS: OH, MY GOD. I'M SO SORRY. HEH HEH. I SEE YOU GOT YOUR ANGEL BACK. THANK GOD. NO PUN INTENDED. WHAT ABOUT AGENT BRODY? WHO? ALL RIGHT. KYLE. YOU KNOW, JUST BECAUSE WE ALMOST GOT HIM KILLED DOESN'T MEAN WE HAVE TO TRUST HIM. AH, COME ON NOW. ENOUGH OF THIS ALREADY. EVERYTHING TURNED OUT FINE, LIKE IT ALWAYS DOES. WELL, ALMOST ALWAYS DOES. EXCEPT FOR THE AVATARS. KYLE SAID THAT'S WHAT THE DEMON CALLED THE NEW POWER. DOESN'T RING ANY BELLS. WELL, WELL, WELL, LOOK AT YOU. WELCOME BACK. THANK YOU. IT'S GOOD TO BE BACK. BELIEVE ME. NO MORE VOICES, FLOATING HEADS, GUILT TRIPS? NOPE. NOTHING. EVER HEAR OF THE AVATARS? AVATARS? WHY? I GUESS THEY COULD BE THE BIG BAD EVERYONE'S WORRIED ABOUT. I WILL LOOK INTO IT. BUT FIRST, A TOAST TO BEING BACK TOGETHER. NEW BEGINNINGS. I WILL DRINK TO THAT.
