Charmed

Okay, Piper, I can't be late getting to the office today.

I have a radio interview with those morning guys, Pip and Skeeter.

That's Skip and Peter.

Could you forget about your advice column for two seconds?

Come see where we're putting the nursery.

You're putting it in your closet. I've seen your closet.

There's a lot of shoes, honey.

No, not anymore.

Look, it's perfect.

It's a little cramped, though, don't you think?

That's why I'm adding a window, to bring in light

and create a sense of space.

You guys are very cute.

But why are you doing all this now? I mean, your due date's not for months.

Well, demon activity has been light, so it's a good time to get ahead.

Speaking of ahead,

I can't believe you guys didn't notice my billboards downtown.

Oh, honey, of course we noticed them.

You can see them from a passing 747.

We'd have told you how proud we are,

but you never slow down to give us a chance.

Well, you know, nothing perks up a girl's career

like sending her husband straight to hell.

Okay, well, I've seen the nursery, and it's absolutely beautiful,

but I really have to go to that interview.

Honey, I know your work is very important to you.

But guess what? I'm having a baby.

I know.

Yeah, so how about you take a couple minutes to be Aunt Phoebe?

Oh, my God, you're so right.

I'm so sorry. Okay, what do you need?

An opinion.

I'm thinking...

Positions! Bogey in three, two, one!

So much for the theory that Borneo demons

are impervious to magical powers.

I can't wait to tell the local witch doctors.

Excuse me, can we refrain from blowing up demons in the nursery?

Oh, honey, it was just one.

Piper, you're going to be a mom.

You need to start thinking about the safety of our daughter.

And you, you're getting so caught up with this magical kick.

Look at your hair. It's still red from the potion you blew up last night.

Do you have any idea how much this would cost in a salon?

I love your new 'do, honey. I think you look beautiful.

Okay, bye.

Thank you.

Honey, sweets, toots?

I appreciate that you're very concerned,

but I am still a witch,

and we do still have innocents to protect and demons to fight.

I can't just crawl in a hole.

It's too bad, Mylie, but your time is up.

You had 30 days to find love or the penalty would be death.

But he does love me. I know he does.

Oh, really?

Did he tell you?

He doesn't have to tell me he loves me.

Well, actually, he does.

But he'll never say he loves you until he trusts you.

And he'll never trust you until you tell him what you really are.

You see why I always win these bargains.

As an immortal being, I'm afraid only you can give up your life.

Place this auger shell over your heart.

It will draw your immortality inside.

And if I don't?

Then you can rot for eternity right here.

You're wrong. He does love me.

And I'm gonna prove it.

Leo, I can't believe you found all our old baby stuff.

Grams was a bit of a pack rat.

Baby book.

My baby book.

Oh, look how squishy I was.

You were so adorable.

Leo, you can't even see the picture.

I'm your whitelighter.

I've been watching you ever since you were a baby.

Yeah, see, that's too creepy to think about.

I never knew that Mom kept a baby book for me.

Why not? I mean, you started one for our daughter.

I always thought you and your mom were a lot alike.

It's strange to think that she went through everything

I'm going through right now.

I don't think you ever really know how much your mother loves you

until you become one yourself.

-Are you okay? -Yeah.

Here.

-Why don't you let me help you? -It's heavy.

Well, see, that's kind of why I wanted to help you with it.

Piper, when are you gonna accept the fact that you're pregnant?

When are you gonna stop being so overprotective?

All I'm suggesting is that you slow down.

Okay, Leo, I'm not gonna be one of those women

that sits on her ass and eats bonbons throughout her entire pregnancy.

That's just not the woman you married.

Besides, generations of Halliwell women

raised perfectly normal children before me.

They all got through it, and so will I.

Not all of them.

What's that supposed to mean?

How far along in the book have you gotten?

There was no one there to finish it after your mother died.

Like I said, you're a lot like your mother.

She was careless too.

She thought she was invincible.

She was wrong.

Hello. Begging your evil pardon.

I bear a message from my master.

Necron?

He wants the immortality you promised him,

and he wants it now!

His words, not mine.

Tell your master he'll get what he wants, but he must be patient.

Oh, no.

I can't tell him that.

No disrespect, but skeletal beings aren't known for their patience.

Then you best hurry along.

I'll do as you ask.

But it'll be the last thing I do before Necron eats my life force.

Then comes for yours.

Water

Rise up from the sea

Find the one who fled from me

Follow where the winds are cold

Then fall tenfold like days of old

Mylie.

-Mylie, hey. -Hey.

I'm so sorry to pull you out of your meeting.

They said it was important. What's going on?

I need to know how you feel about me.

What's so funny?

-You know what I love? -No, what?

Your enthusiasm.

What else?

Well, I... I love this dimple right here when you smile.

Mylie, what's going on here?

Look, I told you, I need to know how you feel about me deep inside.

It's important.

Well, listen, I'm gonna be on a plane in two hours to go to New York.

When I get back, we'll go out...

No, before you get on the plane.

I can't explain right now,

but unless you tell me how you feel about me,

I may not be here when you get back.

What's that supposed to mean?

I'm sorry, this isn't a threat.

It just... It is what it is.

Look, Mylie, this isn't the time or the place for this.

Whatever I feel for you should come out when I'm ready.

But we're running out of time.

Look, Craig, I admit that this isn't fair, what I'm asking you.

But it's what I need right now if you want to keep me in your life.

Okay.

If it's that important, okay.

When I first met you...

...I felt a wall come down.

A wall around my heart.

I mean, I don't know how to say this, but...

-I gotta go. -What?

-Wait a minute, you just... -I'm so sorry. I've gotta go.

Matthews!

In my office, now!

Weather advisory: If you're gonna go outside, bring a paddle.

Where were you?

I had to run the McKenzie papers over to the courthouse.

You've been gone an hour.

Yeah, well, there's a freak rainstorm. The entire city's flooded.

You should've let someone know where you're headed.

You have this habit of coming and going as you please.

As I please?

No, I come and go as other people please.

That's what assistants do. They run errands.

I'll tell you a little secret. They don't like it.

Well, your behavior has got to change.

Maybe it'll change if you promote me to social worker.

I already did.

You start tomorrow.

He promoted you?

Congratulations.

-Thanks, I guess. -What do you mean, you guess?

Paige, you've worked so hard for this. It's your dream.

Yeah, Cowan already gave me the big responsibility speech.

No more coming to work late, no more long lunches.

Hold on a second, sweetie.

Nancy O'Dell's producer's on the phone.

They want to know if you want hair and makeup.

No, I will do my own. Thanks.

-Hi. -Nancy O'Dell?

Yeah, she wants to interview me on TV tomorrow.

Look at you, blowing up around town. Billboards, radio, TV.

What's next? Phoebe, the world tour?

Oh, no, even better.

-Divorce court. -What?

I can't believe you found time to push a divorce through the system.

I just want my life back.

I don't want to have to look over my shoulder,

praying that Cole isn't gonna find a way

out of the demonic wasteland, you know?

-Do you think he will? -You know what?
