I AM REALLY GLAD ELISE MADE ME CALL YOU. YOU'RE EXACTLY THE KIND OF GUY I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR. IS THAT SO? OH, IT'S SO SO. YOU'RE CUTE. YOU'RE SWEET. YOU'RE SMART. AND FROM WHAT I HEAR, YOU'RE RAKING IN THE DOUGH. WELL, YOU HAVE QUITE THE WAY WITH WORDS, DON'T YOU? YEAH. WELL, WHEN IT COMES TO HELPING NEEDY CHILDREN, I'M SHAMELESS. COME ON, EVAN, PLEASE DO THE CHARITY AUCTION. IT'LL BE FUN. IT'LL BE FUN TO BE AUCTIONED OFF LIKE A SIDE OF BEEF? HA HA HA! YEAH, WELL, IT'S NOT LIKE WE'RE ASKING YOU TO MARRY THE HIGHEST BIDDER. IT'S JUST, YOU KNOW, ONE LITTLE DATE AND ONE LITTLE TAX-DEDUCTIBLE DONATION, YOU KNOW, TO MATCH YOUR LADY'S BID. IS THERE ANY CHANCE 'ASK PHOEBE' WILL BE DOING SOME BIDDING? WELL, YOU'LL JUST HAVE TO SIGN UP TO FIND THAT OUT. HMM! AND I GRADUATED FROM STANFORD LAW IN '98. HARVARD LAW. HMM. THAT'S IMPRESSIVE. SO, UM, DO YOU WANT TO GIVE TO A CHARITY OR WHAT? I SAID STANFORD, NOT HARVARD. LET ME ASK YOU SOMETHING. HAVE YOU BEEN HAVING ANY KIND OF END-OF-THE-WORLD, FIRE-AND-BRIMSTONE, DOOMSDAY KIND OF DREAMS LATELY? WAIT A MINUTE. IS THIS SOME SORT OF RELIGIOUS CHARITY? HUH? NO, IT'S NOT. IT'S FOR CHILDREN. RIGHT. HEY, TO EACH HIS OWN, BUT I'M NOT INTO THE WHOLE FIRE AND BRIMSTONE THING. PAIGE, YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE FLIRTING WITH THE BACHELORS, NOT FRIGHTENING THEM. I'M SORRY. I GUESS I'M JUST A LITTLE OFF. WELL, MY BOYFRIEND MOVED TO HONG KONG. I'M THOROUGHLY DEPRESSED, BUT I STILL MANAGED TO SIGN UP 6 PEOPLE, AND YOU HAVE-- I HAVE NONE PEOPLE. NONE PEOPLE. PAIGE, I KNOW YOU'VE BEEN IN A BAD MOOD, BUT THIS IS GETTING A LITTLE CRAZY. WHAT? I'VE BARELY SLEPT ALL WEEK. I KEEP HAVING THESE STRANGE DREAMS ABOUT ANCIENT WARS AND WEIRD MAGIC. IT'S ALL VERY DISTURBING. DO YOU THINK THEY MEAN SOMETHING? I DON'T KNOW. COULD BE HORMONES. MORE LIKELY IT COULD BE MY SUBCONSCIOUS TRYING TO TELL ME SOMETHING. EMERGO DORMIO... LIBERTAS CAELES DICIO. EMERGO DORMIO LIBERTAS CAELES DICIO! IT WORKED. YOU'RE ALIVE! HOW LONG? 3,000 YEARS, GIVE OR TAKE A CENTURY. WHAT?! WHO ARE YOU? ME? I'M THE DEMON WHO SPENT DECADES TRYING TO FREE YOU! NOW YOU'RE GONNA RETURN THE FAVOUR. IT WASN'T EASY, EITHER. THE WORLD'S FORGOTTEN ABOUT YOU. BUT I HAD A VISION. IF I COULD SOMEHOW REVIVE YOU, I COULD USE YOUR POWER TO BRING MYSELF TO GLORY AND RULE THE UNDERWORLD AS I WAS ALWAYS MEANT TO! IMBECILE. OHH! I LOVE IT WHEN YOU SMITE SO UNEXPECTEDLY. MM! WE HAVE TO FIND CRONUS AND FREE HIM AS WELL. DO WE HAVE TO? YOU KNOW HE'LL BE FURIOUS. I AM COUNTING ON IT. Captions were made possible with funding from NZ On Air. www.able.co.nz Able 2003 FOR THE LOVE OF THAT IS EVERYTHING GOOD AND PURE, WHY HAVE WE NEVER BOTHERED TO GET AIR CONDITIONING? BECAUSE WE LIVE IN SAN FRANCISCO WHERE THE TEMPERATURE RARELY GOES ABOVE 75 DEGREES. OK, WELL, IT'S AT 90 NOW. CAN WE GET ONE TODAY, PLEASE? YEAH, WE COULD IF IT WAS NOT FOR THIS LITTLE EXPENDITURE HERE. UH-OH. YEAH, THAT'S A LOT OF PHONE CALLS TO HONG KONG. YES, IT IS. OK, BEFORE YOU START YELLING, LET ME JUST EXPLAIN TO YOU THAT I'M TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHERE JASON AND I STAND, AND TO DO THAT, IT REQUIRES A LOT OF PHONE CALLS. YOU'RE GONNA THROW THAT GLASS AT ME, AREN'T YOU? NO, HONEY, I GET IT. YOU KNOW, IT IS A VERY BIG PHONE BILL, BUT IF YOU HAVE TO CHOOSE BETWEEN TRUE LOVE AND AIR CONDITIONING, I'D SAY IT'S A NO-BRAINER. WHO ARE YOU, AND WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO MY SISTER? WHAT? I CAN'T BE IN A GOOD MOOD? NO. MARY POPPINS WOULDN'T BE IN A GOOD MOOD IN THIS KIND OF HEAT. WELL, WYATT IS FINALLY SLEEPING THROUGH THE NIGHT, MY HORMONES ARE BACK IN WHACK, AND, YOU KNOW, LEO AND I ARE FINALLY-- BACK IN THE SADDLE? SO TO SPEAK. YAY, YOU! GOD, I MISS SEX. I GOTTA TELL YOU, LIFE IS FEELING PRETTY DAMN GOOD AT THE MOMENT. SO WHERE IS YOUR LUCKY HUSBAND AND MY PERFECT NEPHEW? THEY ARE SHOPPING FOR A PRESENT FOR DARRYL'S SON. LOOK AT YOU. YOU'RE LIKE SOCCER MOM. DARE I SAY IT, YOUR LIFE IS ALMOST NORMAL? THERE IS NOTHING NORMAL ABOUT THIS HEAT. GOOD MORNING, SUNSHINE. OH, SAVE THE QUIPS AND PASS THE CAFFEINE. I HAVE WORK TO DO. WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO? SCRY FOR MOTHER NATURE AND HAVE A WICCAN WORD WITH HER? OK, YOU'RE WAY TOO PERKY, ALL RIGHT? AND YOU'RE FRIGHTENING ME. I'M JUST SAYING. SO YOU THINK THIS WEATHER'S DEMONIC? I DON'T KNOW. THERE'S JUST SOMETHING WEIRD. I KEEP WAKING UP ALL WEEK LONG WITH THESE FIERY DREAMS. WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO THINK? UH-OH. YOU'RE NOT GETTING LIKE A GOD COMPLEX OR SOMETHING, ARE YOU? BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, THEY GOT MEDICATION FOR THAT. I DIDN'T SAY MY DREAMS CAUSED IT. I'M JUST-- I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING. HONEY, MAYBE YOU NEED TO GET OUT OF THE HOUSE A LITTLE MORE. WELL, THIS ISN'T JUST ME BEING OBSESSIVE. OK, MAYBE A LITTLE BIT, BUT IT'S NOT JUST PSYCHOLOGICAL OR EMOTIONAL. I REALLY, REALLY THINK THERE'S SOMETHING... MAGICAL? YEAH, FOR LACK OF A BETTER TERM. LISTEN, I DON'T WANT TO BE A DOWNER, BUT I'M GONNA GO HIT THE BOOKS SO I CAN FIGURE OUT WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON. SHOULD WE BE WORRIED? I DON'T THINK SO. BUT I JUST WISH SHE'D STOP LOOKING FOR TROUBLE, BECAUSE WITH OUR LUCK, SHE'S GONNA FIND IT. THERE HE IS, AS WRATHFUL AS EVER. ALL THE MORE REASON TO LEAVE HIM BE. CAREFUL, META. DEMETRIUS, I'M TELLING YOU, WE DON'T NEED HIM. WE HAVE MORE THAN ENOUGH POWER TO RULE WITHOUT HIM. YOU KNOW THAT. JUST IMAGINE. A NEW PLAGUE EVERY DAY. A MONSOON EVERY WEEK. IT WOULD BE DEVASTATING. HEH HEH! NEVERTHELESS, WE WILL NEED HIS STRENGTH TO REVENGE OUR CAPTORS, AND THAT IS SOMETHING WE ALL WANT. OH, NOW DON'T POUT, META. YOU MIGHT START A HURRICANE AND ALERT THEM. NOW, GO AND FIND THE WHITELIGHTERS. IT WON'T BE LONG BEFORE I FREE CRONUS, AND YOU KNOW HOW IMPATIENT HE CAN GET. OW, OW, OW! OUCH, HOT, HOT, HOT! OOH, NICE! YES, YES, YES. DADDY, DADDY, SHOW US YOUR TRICK! TRICK? I'M SORRY. I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT. OH, HOLD ON A SECOND. WAIT. YOU HAVE SOMETHING IN YOUR EAR. I DO? YEAH. HA HA HA! YOU CALL THAT MAGIC? HEH HEH HEH! OK, WHO WANTS HOT DOGS? DARRYL: LET ME GUESS. FIRST TIME THE BABY SLEPT ALL NIGHT, HUH? HOW'D YOU KNOW? THE FIRST FEW MONTHS AFTER MIKEY WAS BORN WERE ROUGH. YOU KNOW, NO SLEEP, NO TIME FOR EACH OTHER. SOUNDS FAMILIAR. YEAH, BUT RIGHT ABOUT 3, 4 MONTHS, THINGS START TO LEVEL OFF, GET REALLY GOOD AGAIN. UNTIL HE HITS 2. OH, DON'T SCARE THEM! (ELDERS CALLING LEO) UH, PIPER, I HAVE TO GO. BUT WE JUST GOT HERE. I KNOW, BABY, BUT IT'S THE ELDERS. DON'T WORRY. SHE KNOWS. OH, SECRET'S SAFE WITH ME. ARGUE AWAY. HONEY, I'M SORRY, BUT IT SOUNDS URGENT. UGH. OK, WELL, THEN, I NEED TO EXPRESS TO YOU THAT THIS IS GONNA MAKE ME FEEL A LITTLE ABANDONED. ALL RIGHT, WELL, I UNDERSTAND. I ACKNOWLEDGE YOUR FEELINGS, AND I WANT TO LET YOU KNOW THAT I LOVE YOU EVEN THOUGH I HAVE TO GO. HEH! DARRYL, STOP! WHAT'S SO FUNNY? NOTHING. UM... JUST MARRIAGE COUNSELLING, HUH? HONEY, WE DID IT, TOO. WE RECOGNISED 'THE TOOLS.' I THINK I HATE THE TOOLS. I'D RATHER JUST SNIPE LATER THAN BE OPEN AND HONEST ABOUT MY FEELINGS NOW. YEAH. WE FELT THE SAME WAY. BUT YOU KNOW WHAT? TURNS OUT THE TOOLS REALLY HELPED. PIPER, I HAVE TO GO. FINE. GO. I MEAN, THANK YOU FOR CONSIDERING MY FEELINGS, AND I LOVE YOU, AND I WILL SEE YOU LATER AT HOME. OK. SO YOU'LL INTRODUCE THE BACHELORS FROM HERE, AND THEN THEY'LL ENTER FROM OVER THERE. PHOEBE, YOU WITH ME? I AM ALL OVER HIM. I MEAN IT! ALL OVER IT! PHOEBE, THE NEWSPAPER ONLY SPONSORS ONE CHARITY EVENT A YEAR, AND I WANT THIS TO GO OFF WITHOUT A HITCH. IT WILL. I PROMISE. - OK, THAT'S WHAT I LIKE TO HEAR. - MM-HMM. OH, AND PLEASE THANK YOUR SISTER AGAIN FOR DONATING HER CLUB. I JUST HOPE EVERYONE DOESN'T MELT BY THE TIME THEY GET HERE. IT'S GONNA BE KIND OF HARD TO AUCTION OFF BACHELOR SOUP. - IT IS BIZARRE WEATHER, ISN'T IT? - MM. I SPOKE TO JASON THIS MORNING, AND HE SAYS IT'S THE SAME WAY IN HONG KONG. YOU SPOKE TO JASON? DID HE MENTION ME? LOOK, NOT THAT IT'S ANY OF MY BUSINESS, BUT ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO TETHER YOURSELF TO A BOYFRIEND WHO'S HALFWAY ACROSS THE WORLD? I KNOW. AND THE TRUTH IS, THIS HEAT IS KIND OF MAKING ME A LITTLE BOY-CRAZY. IT JUST FEELS REALLY WEIRD TO END A GOOD RELATIONSHIP SO ABRUPTLY. HE'S THE ONE WHO MOVED AWAY, PHOEBE. I KNOW. AND AT THE RISK OF ADVISING AN ADVICE COLUMNIST, I SAY YOU BID ON A BACHELOR OR TWO TOMORROW. THAT WAY I CAN LIVE VICARIOUSLY THROUGH YOU. OH, ELISE, YOU BRAZEN HUSSY. OH, MY GOD! WHAT? WHAT IS IT? NOTHING. HOLD THAT THOUGHT. WHAT THOUGHT? PAIGE, ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND? AS IT TURNS OUT, I AM NOT. LISTEN, WE ARE IN BIG TROUBLE. YEAH, YOU ALMOST EXPOSED OUR MAGIC TO A ROOMFUL OF PEOPLE. NO. LISTEN, I STUDIED THE I-CHING, TAROT CARDS, RUNES, AND TEA LEAVES, AND THEY'RE ALL GIVING ME THE SAME READING. THAT YOU NEED A GOOD NIGHT'S SLEEP? NO! THAT THERE'S SOMETHING BIG GOING ON IN THE SUPERNATURAL WORLD. IF MY READING IS RIGHT, IT'S NOT JUST THE THUNDER AND THE HEAT. WE COULD BE IN STORE FOR A BIG EARTHQUAKE OR WORSE. OK, SO WHAT DO YOU WANT US TO DO? DO YOU HAVE A PLAN? NOT SO MUCH A PLAN AS A LOCATION. I SCRIED FOR EVIL, AND ONE PLACE KEPT COMING UP RED HOT. TAKE THIS. YOU'RE GONNA NEED IT. WE'RE GOING ON A TRIP. O-O-OK. THERE'S A REASON NOBODY LIVES IN THIS PART OF THE WORLD, AND IT'S BECAUSE THEY ALL DIED FROM THE COLD. I THOUGHT YOU SAID YOU WANTED AIR CONDITIONING. OOH, THIS SUCKS. SCORCH MARK. SEE IF YOU CAN GET A PREMONITION. I DON'T HAVE MY GLOVES! UGH! TOUGH IT OUT. I GOT US THIS FAR. OK, FINE. DID YOU GET ANYTHING? YEAH. FROSTBITE. SHUSH. (GASPS) OOH! HOT. HOT. HOT. HOT? NO, NOT HERE HOT. IN MY VISION. VISION! GOOD! TELL ME WHAT IT IS. UH, TWO VERY LARGE SOMEONES COMING OUT OF THAT WALL. WHO? I DON'T KNOW. (RUMBLING) DEMETRIUS. MY LORD. THEY DID THIS TO ME. TO ME! THEY WILL BE PUNISHED. PUNISHED. I WILL OBLITERATE THEM! EARTHQUAKE. DID I CALL IT OR WHAT? DID I MENTION THIS SUCKS? YEAH. (SHIVERING) OK. I KNOW IT'S COOLED OFF A LITTLE BIT SINCE THIS MORNING, BUT WHAT ARE YOU DOING? DEFROSTING. IS THIS THEM? - NO. - WHO'S THEM? WE'RE NOT SURE YET. HOW WAS THE PARTY? OH, JUST SUPER FUN. LEO GOT CALLED AWAY, AND I GOT TO USE MY TOOLS. - WHAT? - IS THAT THEM? NO. THEY LOOKED A LITTLE BIT MORE... ANCIENT. WILL SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME WHAT'S GOING ON? A WHITELIGHTER'S DISAPPEARED. A WHITELIGHTER? LIKE, FROM A DARKLIGHTER? NO, A DARKLIGHTER'S POISON IS SLOW AND PAINFUL. THIS WAS MORE INSTANTANEOUS, AND THE ELDERS HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IT COULD HAVE BEEN. PAIGE: IT'S ALL CONNECTED. WHAT'S CONNECTED? WHATEVER IT IS THAT ESCAPED FROM THAT ICE CAVE. YOU WERE IN AN ICE CAVE? THE HEAT WAVE, THE EARTHQUAKE, MY DREAMS. THIS IS WAY BIGGER THAN ANY ONE WHITELIGHTER. I BETTER DROP OUT OF THAT CHARITY BENEFIT. YEAH. MAYBE WE SHOULD CANCEL COUNSELLING, HONEY. HOLD IT. WAIT A MINUTE. NO. THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT WE'RE SUPPOSED TO BE LEARNING IN THERAPY-- WHEN TO PUT OUR LIVES ON HOLD AND WHEN NOT TO. BUT, PIPER, A WHITELIGHTER WAS KILLED. WE DON'T KNOW THAT. HE COULD'VE JUST CLIPPED HIS WINGS AND HE'S IN HIDING. IS THAT POSSIBLE? YEAH, I GUESS. LOOK, PEOPLE, WE JUST NEED TO MANAGE OUR LIVES A LITTLE BIT BETTER. DR. BERENSON SAYS THAT NEEDLESS WORRY AND PANIC SERVE ABSOLUTELY NO PURPOSE EXCEPT TO PREVENT THE POSSIBILITY OF HAPPINESS. I AM ALL FOR THE POSSIBILITY OF HAPPINESS. GOOD. SO WE NEED TO ADDRESS THE IMMEDIATE PROBLEM AT HAND AND CIRCLE THE WAGONS ONLY WHEN WE HAVE TO. OK. LEO, MAYBE YOU SHOULD GET THE ELDERS TO PUT A BAN ON WHITELIGHTERS ORBING UNTIL WE FIND OUT EXACTLY WHAT'S GOING ON. OK. I'LL MEET YOU AT THERAPY. OK. DON'T BE LATE. IS IT SAFE FOR YOU TO ORB UP THERE RIGHT NOW? YEAH. NO WORRYING, REMEMBER? WHAT'S GOING ON? WHAT'S WITH ALL THE ACTIVITY? I JUST LEFT HERE. IT'S NOT YOUR CONCERN. ROLAND, PLEASE. ACTUALLY, WE'RE NOT SURE, LEO, BUT WE DO KNOW THAT SOMETHING'S NOT QUITE RIGHT. WHY? HAS ANOTHER WHITELIGHTER BEEN-- NO, IT'S SOMETHING ELSE. SOMETHING WE'RE NOT AT LIBERTY TO DISCUSS OUTSIDE THE COUNCIL OF ELDERS. ANYTHING TO DO WITH HEAT WAVES? EARTHQUAKES? WHAT DO YOU KNOW? NOT MUCH. JUST THAT PAIGE HAS BEEN HAVING THESE STRANGE DREAMS LATELY, DREAMS THAT SEEM PRETTY PROPHETIC. YOU THINK SHE FORESAW THESE EARTHQUAKES? YES. THAT'S NOT HER POWER. IT'S NOT A POWER. IT'S MORE OF AN INSTINCT. AN INSTINCT? THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE BASING THIS ON? WELL, IT HASN'T LET HER DOWN SO FAR, HAS IT? LOOK, EXCUSE ME, BUT I'VE JUST LEARNED TO RELY ON HER INSTINCTS, ALL OF THEIR INSTINCTS. AS WELL YOU SHOULD HAVE, LEO. NOW, WHAT DID YOU COME UP HERE TO TELL US? JUST THAT THE GIRLS THINK-- WE ALL THINK THAT MAYBE WE SHOULD GROUND ALL WHITELIGHTERS UNTIL WE KNOW FOR SURE THAT IT'S SAFE. WE AGREE. WE'LL INITIATE THE ORDERS AS SOON AS YOU'VE RETURNED TO THEM. IN THE MEANTIME, KEEP THEM WORKING ON THIS. IT'S IMPORTANT. YOU'RE WORRIED, AREN'T YOU? YOU KNOW ME BETTER THAN THAT. AT THE END OF THE DAY, EVEN WE CAN'T CHANGE WHAT'S MEANT TO BE. JUST REMEMBER, NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS, YOU MUST ALWAYS FOLLOW YOUR INSTINCTS, TOO. KRISTA! IT'S ABOUT TIME YOU CAME TO HEAL YOUR CHARGE. WHO ARE YOU? WHAT DO YOU WANT? A WHITELIGHTER. IT'S GOOD TO SEE YOU AGAIN, MY LORD. YOU NEVER WERE A GOOD LIAR, META. WHERE'S THE THIRD ONE? UNFORTUNATELY, WHITELIGHTERS ARE NOT AS EASY TO FIND IN THIS TIME. MUCH HAS CHANGED. MAGIC IS NO LONGER PRACTISED SO OPENLY. MUCH MAY HAVE CHANGED, BUT YOU CERTAINLY HAVEN'T. YOU KNOW, IT ALWAYS AMAZED ME HOW SOMEONE AS BEAUTIFUL AS YOU COULD SO EASILY TURN A MORTAL TO STONE. YOU HAVEN'T CHANGED A BIT, HAVE YOU? SHE STAYS BEHIND. NO, SHE CAN'T. WE ARE STRONGER AS 3 THAN 2. WE WILL NEED EVERY OUNCE OF THAT STRENGTH IF WE ARE TO TAKE REVENGE ON OUR CAPTORS. BUT IF WE WAIT, WE RISK THEM FINDING OUT WE'VE BEEN AWAKENED. THEN, EVEN WITH ORBS, WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO BREAK IN. THEN THAT IS A RISK WE WILL HAVE TO TAKE. SAYS WHO? YOU, DEMETRIUS? ARE YOU CHALLENGING ME? NO. NO. OF COURSE HE'S NOT, CRONUS. I'VE BROUGHT POWER ENOUGH FOR BOTH OF YOU. YOU CAN TAKE THEM AND USE THEM TO FIND A THIRD WHITELIGHTER FOR ME. AND IF WE CAN'T? THEN I SUPPOSE... I'LL JUST HAVE TO LET YOU BOYS HANDLE IT. - LEO. - I'M SORRY, HONEY. I WAS STARTING TO GET WORRIED ABOUT YOU. I KNOW. I--I KNOW. I CAME AS FAST AS I COULD. WELL, WHAT HAPPENED? WHAT TOOK SO LONG? I DON'T KNOW. THEY DON'T KNOW. BUT WE CAN TALK ABOUT IT LATER. RIGHT NOW, OUR FIRST PRIORITY IS US. THAT'S A GOOD ANSWER, 'CAUSE I DON'T THINK THERE'S ENOUGH TOOLS IN THE BOX TO HANDLE BEING STOOD UP AT THE SHRINK. UH-OH. NO WAY! ARE YOU KIDDING ME? IT SOUNDS IMPORTANT. BUT YOU WERE JUST THERE. I KNOW. I-- LOOK, I ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THIS IS VERY DIFFICULT FOR YOU-- YOU KNOW WHAT? SCREW THAT. DAMN IT! I'M JUST...SCARED. I TOLD YOU IT WAS SAFE ORBING UP THERE. NO, NOT ABOUT THAT. I'M SCARED THAT EVERY TIME SOMETHING GOOD HAPPENS, EVERY TIME I ACTUALLY THINK WE CAN HAVE A NORMAL LIFE TOGETHER, SOMETHING GOES WRONG. PIPER, I HAVE TO GO. (SIGHS) I KNOW. AND I KNOW IT'S NOT YOUR FAULT. IT'S JUST THE WAY THAT IT IS. I LOVE YOU. PHOEBE? HEY, PHOEBE! DID YOU FIND SOMETHING? DO TITANS RING A BELL? TITANS, LIKE FROM ANCIENT GREECE? YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME. NO, ANCIENT GODS WHO WERE ENTOMBED BECAUSE IT WAS THE ONLY WAY TO STOP THEM. OK. WELL, EVEN IF IT IS THEM, HOW'D THEY GET OUT? AND WHY GO AFTER THE WHITELIGHTERS? I DON'T KNOW. MAYBE ONE OF THEM WAS HURT. MAYBE THEY NEEDED HEALING POWERS. I DO KNOW THAT BECAUSE OF THE ELDERS' NO ORBING EDICT THAT THE ONLY WAY THEY'RE GONNA GET ANOTHER WHITELIGHTER IS IF ONE... OH, NO WAY, PAIGE. FORGET ABOUT IT. WHY NOT? IF I'M RIGHT, THEY WILL COME RIGHT TO US. OH, AND YOU'RE SAYING THIS LIKE IT'S A GOOD THING? IT IS! THIS IS WHY I HAVEN'T BEEN SLEEPING. THIS IS WHAT I'VE BEEN PREPARING FOR ALL YEAR. I HAVE GOT POTIONS HERE THAT ARE STRONGER THAN THE ONES THAT WE USED ON THE SOURCE. OK, DEVIL'S ADVOCATE. UNTIL WE FIGURE OUT HOW POWERFUL THEY ARE, WE SHOULDN'T USE YOU AS BAIT. WITCH'S ADVOCATE. THERE ARE EVIL GODS RUNNING AROUND ON THE LOOSE THAT WE SHOULD ELIMINATE BEFORE WYATT GETS HOME. MMM, THAT'S DIRTY. WHY DO I FEEL LIKE YOU'RE MAKING ME CHOOSE BETWEEN MY SISTER AND MY NEPHEW? BECAUSE YOU'RE SLIGHTLY OVERDRAMATIC? OH, I'M A LITTLE OVERDRAMATIC? LOOK, COULD WE JUST DO THIS, PLEASE? (SIGHS) OK, FINE. BRING ON THE EARTHQUAKE-CAUSING GODS. WATCH THIS. DON'T LOOK INTO HER EYES! YOU ALL RIGHT? OH, MY GOD. PAIGE. DON'T WORRY. SHE'S ALL RIGHT. WELL, I MEAN, SHE'S NOT COMPLETELY ALL RIGHT, OBVIOUSLY, BUT SHE'S NOT DEAD. ARE YOU SURE SHE'S NOT? FRANKLY, YOU SEE THIS A LOT. MUSEUMS, UNIVERSITIES, TOWN CENTRES-- MOST OF THOSE STATUES AREN'T REALLY STATUES. THEY'RE PEOPLE LIKE YOUR SISTER HERE WHO'VE BEEN, UH, TURNED INTO STONE. WHO ARE YOU? CHRIS. CHRIS PERRY. I'M...FROM THE FUTURE. OH! MY GOD! TELL ME THAT'S JUST A REALLY GOOD LIKENESS OF PAIGE. NO. IT'S PAIGE. A TITAN TURNED HER TO STONE. UH, WHO-- WHO ARE YOU? THAT'S CHRIS. HE'S FROM THE FUTURE. YEAH, BUT JUST, LIKE, 20 YEARS OR SO. (LAUGHS NERVOUSLY) FRIEND OR FOE? NOT SO SURE YET. WHAT DO YOU MEAN? I SAVED PAIGE, DIDN'T I? OH, YOU CALL THAT SAVING, DO YOU? HEY, I'M THE ONE WHO PUT MY LIFE ON THE LINE HERE. I DIDN'T HAVE TO DROP EVERYTHING I WAS DOING JUST TO ORB IN AND SAVE HER BUTT FROM-- YOU--YOU ORBED? YOU'RE A WHITELIGHTER? LOOK, WHERE I COME FROM, HISTORY SHOWS PAIGE DIDN'T GET TURNED TO STONE ON THIS DAY. SHE DIED. AND WITH HER DEATH, THE POWER OF THREE DIED, TOO, ALLOWING TITANS TO RULE AND CREATE A WORLD YOU DON'T WANNA SEE. TRUST ME. I'M HERE TO ALTER HISTORY, TO HELP YOU SAVE THE FUTURE. WHO SENT YOU? I CAN'T ANSWER THAT. WHY NOT? BECAUSE ANYTHING I TELL YOU COULD RISK CHANGING THE FUTURE IN WAYS WE DON'T WANT. WHO'S WE? ALL I GOT TO SAY IS THAT IF I HADN'T GOTTEN HERE WHEN I DID, PAIGE WOULD'VE BEEN THE THIRD WHITELIGHTER VICTIM. WAIT. THIRD? I THOUGHT ONLY ONE WAS MISSING. NOT ANY MORE. LEO?! LEO?! HONEY, I'M SORRY I MISSED COUNSELLING, BUT-- FORGET THAT. WE'VE GOT BIGGER PROBLEMS. - WHAT HAPPENED? - FORGET THAT, TOO. HOW MANY WHITELIGHTERS ARE MISSING? - WHAT? - HOW MANY? UH, 2. THAT'S WHAT THE ELDERS JUST CALLED ME FOR. BELIEVE ME NOW? WHO'S HE? (CRASHING DOWNSTAIRS) WHAT WAS THAT? SORRY. WE'LL PAY FOR THAT. SO LONG AS YOU CAN KEEP THE WORLD FROM ENDING. IT WAS A TRAP. YOU WERE TRICKED. STILL, THERE ARE OTHER WHITELIGHTERS. NO. WE HAVE BEEN DISCOVERED. YOUR INCOMPETENCE HAS ENDANGERED US ALL! MY INCOMPETENCE? I ONLY WENT WHERE I WAS TOLD. MY LORD. IT DOESN'T MATTER. WE CAN GO BACK. THEY WILL BE NO MATCH FOR THE THREE OF US. OUT OF THE QUESTION. WE HAVE TO ATTACK OUR ENEMIES NOW WHILE WE STILL CAN. I WON'T LEAVE META BEHIND. IT'S ALL RIGHT, DEMETRIUS. YOU WON'T HAVE TO. AAH! NO! CAREFUL, DEMETRIUS. EITHER YOU'RE WITH ME... OR YOU'RE WITH HER. COME ON. COME ON. PRANCE THIS WAY. HERE WE GO. HERE WE GO. MOVE IT. MOVE IT. MOVE IT. TODAY. HEY! QUIT MANHANDLING US! WE'RE NOT YOUR PETS. NO, YOU'RE JUST A PAIN. NOW GO ON. AND DON'T LET THE NEIGHBOURS SEE YOU. WHOA! CHECK OUT THE SIZE OF THAT ORACLE'S...BALL. PHOEBE, FOCUS. (GASPS) OH! I'M SO SORRY. I'M SO SORRY. STAY AWAY FROM THOSE WINDOWS. WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON AROUND HERE? IF YOU HAVEN'T NOTICED, THE WORLD'S A MESS OUT THERE. SOMETHING TERRIBLE'S GOING ON. EVERYONE SENSES IT. - THE TITANS? - MUST BE. SO YOU GUYS JUST ALL CAME HERE, FIGURING THAT WE WOULD STOP THEM? WELL, YOU ARE THE CHARMED ONES, AREN'T YOU? (BABY CRIES) DO YOU ALWAYS LEAVE THE LITTLE ONE UNATTENDED? - NO! - NO! WELL, IT JUST SOUNDS LIKE HE NEEDS TO BE CHANGED. I'LL TAKE CARE OF IT. HOLD IT! YOU ARE NOT THE NANNY. WE REJECTED YOU. NO, I REJECTED YOU. BUT I SUPPOSE I COULD FILL IN, JUST FOR A BIT. DID SHE JUST HIRE HERSELF? YOU NEED TO GO WATCH HER. WHAT ABOUT THE ELDERS? I NEED TO LET THEM KNOW THE TITANS ARE BACK. CAN'T CHRIS TELL THEM? I MEAN, HE'S A WHITELIGHTER, ISN'T HE? WAIT A MINUTE. WHERE IS HE? UPSTAIRS, WITH PAIGE. AND THE BOOK. ALL RIGHT, YOU, TO THE ELF. YOU KEEP AN EYE ON OUR MAGICAL HOUSE GUESTS. HERD 'EM INTO THE BASEMENT OR SOMETHING. I'M GONNA GO SEE WHAT FUTURE BOY IS UP TO. WHAT ARE YOU DOING? WHAT DOES IT LOOK LIKE I'M DOING? I'M TRYING TO FIND A WAY TO FREE STONE-COLD PAIGE OVER HERE. STEP AWAY. PLEASE, LIKE I HAVEN'T LOOKED IN THIS BEFORE? BY THE WAY, YOU SHOULD UPDATE YOUR GOBLINS ENTRY. IT'LL COME IN HANDY SOME DAY. GOBLINS? YEAH. TRUST ME. IT'S GONNA GET UGLY. LOOK, OBVIOUSLY YOU DON'T TRUST ME, BUT I TOUCHED THE BOOK, RIGHT? AND THE BOOK THINKS I'M GOOD. SHOULDN'T YOU? WELL, MAYBE YOU FOUND A WAY AROUND THAT. PIPER, COME ON. I'M JUST TRYING TO HELP. WELL, THEN, IF THAT'S TRUE, WHY DON'T YOU TELL ME HOW TO VANQUISH THE TITANS? EXCEPT YOU CAN'T VANQUISH THEM. YOU MEAN, NOT WITHOUT THE POWER OF THREE? MAYBE NOT EVEN WITH THAT. THE ONLY WAY THE ELDERS COULD STOP THEM 3,000 YEARS AGO WAS BY INFUSING SOME MORTALS WITH A HELL OF A LOT POWER. WAY MORE THAN YOU GUYS HAVE. SO THEY CAN DO THAT AGAIN. NOT AFTER WHAT HAPPENED LAST TIME. WHEN THE MORTALS TRAPPED THE TITANS, THE POWER WENT TO THEIR HEADS. THEY DECLARED THEMSELVES GODS AND FORCED THE WORLD TO WORSHIP THEM. THE ELDERS SWORE THEY WOULD NEVER ALLOW THAT TO HAPPEN AGAIN. HANG ON A SECOND. I'M HAVING A NINTH GRADE FLASHBACK. YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT THE GREEK GODS ZEUS, ATHENA, APHRODITE? THEY WERE MORTALS? MYTHOLOGY LEFT THAT PART OUT. NOT THE ONLY INACCURACY, BY THE WAY. PHOEBE, WHAT ARE YOU DOING? YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE-- I KNOW. I KNOW. BUT I THOUGHT THEY COULD HELP US FREE PAIGE. AFTER ALL, A LEPRECHAUN'S LUCK HAS HELPED US BEFORE. HE'S THE LEPRECHAUN. I'M ONE OF THE 7 DWARVES. TRY TO KEEP IT STRAIGHT, WILL YA? SORRY. IT'S GONNA TAKE A LOT MORE THAN JUST ME LUCK TO FREE THIS ONE. WE'RE GONNA NEED SOME PIXIE DUST, TOO. I'LL GET A FAIRY. LEFT MY AXE DOWNSTAIRS ANYWAY. OK, SO WHERE ARE WE? SCREWED, POSSIBLY. ONE THING I'M STILL NOT CLEAR ABOUT. IF THE TITANS ARE ROAMING AROUND, WHY ARE THEY KILLING WHITELIGHTERS? BECAUSE THEY NEED THEIR ORBING POWER. THEIR ORBING POWER? WHAT ON EARTH WOULD THEY WANNA DO WITH-- OH, MY GOD. LEO! WHAT--WHAT DID I MISS? WHAT'D SHE JUST FIGURE OUT? NOTHING GOOD. HOW'D YOU KNOW HE WAS COLD? BABIES ARE WHAT I DO. LEO? THE TITANS ARE AFTER THE ELDERS. WHAT? YOU HAVE TO GO WARN THEM, BUT DON'T STAY UP THERE TOO LONG. HURRY. WHAT? NO. NOW, LADDIE! DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO TRY. RUNNING OUT OF GOLD, TOO, I'M AFRAID. OK. WELL, THERE'S GOTTA BE SOMETHING WE CAN DO. JUST KEEP TRYING. - WHAT ARE YOU DOING OVER HERE? - NOTHING. YOU GUYS KEEP THIS STUFF FOREVER, YOU KNOW THAT? YOU KNEW THE TITANS WERE AFTER THE ELDERS, DIDN'T YOU? WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL US? I TOLD YOU, THERE'S SOME THINGS I CAN'T TELL YOU. SOME THINGS YOU NEED TO FIGURE OUT ON YOUR OWN. EVEN AT THE RISK OF MAKING THINGS WORSE? ALL RIGHT, WHAT'S GOING ON? LEO'S NOT RESPONDING TO ANY OF MY CALLS, AND IT'S BEEN OVER 5 HOURS. I REALLY DON'T KNOW. WELL, I REALLY THINK YOU DO. LOOK, YOU'RE THE ONE WHO WANTED HIM TO GO UP THERE IN THE FIRST PLACE. NOT ME. ALL RIGHT, FINE. MAYBE I DO KNOW. AND IF I'M RIGHT, HE'S GONNA NEED SOME SERIOUS ALONE TIME. YOU KNOW WHAT? CUT IT OUT WITH THE CRYPTIC CRAP. YOU NEED TO GO UP THERE AND BRING HIM BACK NOW. NO MORE GAMES. OK, FINE. I'LL GO. BUT IF I WERE YOU TWO, I'D FOCUS ON FREEING PAIGE, BECAUSE YOU'RE GONNA NEED HER. SOON. I SWEAR TO GOD, IF HE DOES NOT COME BACK WITH LEO, I'M GONNA BLOW HIS ASS BACK TO THE FUTURE, ORBS AND ALL. YOU KNOW WHAT? WHY DON'T YOU GO BE WITH WYATT, AND I WILL TAKE CARE OF EVERYTHING UP HERE. I WILL CALL YOU IF ANYTHING HAPPENS. I PROMISE. YOU'RE NOT BREATHING. - NOPE. - BREATHE. OK, NEXT SISTER. LEO. WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME? WHY DID YOU LET THIS HAPPEN?! EASY! EASY! - WHY?! - BECAUSE THIS HAD TO HAPPEN! IT HAD TO HAPPEN SO YOU COULD DO WHAT HAS TO BE DONE. WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? THEY'RE ALL DEAD. GONE. NO. NOT ALL OF THEM. SOME OF THE ELDERS ESCAPED BACK TO EARTH, BUT IT WON'T BE LONG BEFORE THE TITANS HUNT THEM DOWN, TOO. BUT YOU CAN STILL STOP THEM. YOU CAN STILL DEFEAT THE TITANS. HOW? I THINK YOU KNOW HOW. IT'S TOO DANGEROUS. THE ELDERS FORBID IT. TRUE. BUT THEN AGAIN, THE ELDERS AREN'T AROUND TO STOP YOU NOW, ARE THEY? THAT'S RIGHT, LEO. THIS IS WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT. THIS IS WHY THEY HAD TO DIE SO YOU COULD DO SOMETHING THEY'D NEVER DO. TO SAVE THE FUTURE FOR YOUR FAMILY. FOR YOUR SON. THIS IS CRAZY. MAYBE, BUT IT'S OUR ONLY CHANCE. LIKE IT OR NOT, YOU'VE BEEN PUT IN THIS SITUATION FOR A REASON, LEO. WE BOTH HAVE. SAYS YOU. HOW DO I KNOW YOU'RE NOT TRYING TO MANIPULATE THIS SITUATION FOR YOUR OWN FUTURE? JUST THE WAY YOU'VE MANIPULATED EVERYTHING ELSE? YOU DON'T. BUT WHAT CHOICE DO YOU REALLY HAVE? THERE'S CERTAINLY NO FUTURE UNLESS YOU DO SOMETHING. I DON'T KNOW. EVEN IF I WERE TO BELIEVE YOU, EVEN IF I WERE WILLING... I COULDN'T. I'M NO ELDER. WELL, YOU'D BETTER START ACTING LIKE ONE. NOW! HIT IT! (GASPS) OH, HONEY! HI! OH, I'M SO HAPPY TO SEE YOU. ARE YOU OK? WHAT HAPPENED? WHERE'S THE TITAN? WHAT THE HELL ARE THESE GUYS DOING HERE? LONG STORY. I'LL TELL YOU ON THE WAY. YOU'RE WELCOME! THERE YOU ARE. OK, I GET THE WHOLE EPIC TITAN THING, BUT WHAT I'M NOT GETTING IS THE CHRIS THING. YEAH, WE'RE STILL TRYING TO FIGURE THAT PART OUT. LOOK WHO'S NOT STONED. WELCOME BACK. YOU'VE MISSED A LOT. YEAH. I CAN'T HELP BUT THINK IT'S KIND OF ALL MY FAULT, THOUGH. I MEAN, I'M THE ONE WHO LURED THE TITANS HERE. INSERT 'I TOLD YOU SO.' DONE. I JUST KIND OF WAS OBSESSED WITH THE WHOLE WEIRD DREAMS THING. I AM SO SORRY FOR ANY DISTRESS I MIGHT HAVE CAUSED YOU, PIPER. DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT. I SHOULD'VE LISTENED TO YOU IN THE FIRST PLACE. JUST TRYING NOT TO WORRY OR TO PANIC. I'VE JUST GOT THIS TERRIBLE FEELING IN THE PIT OF MY STOMACH. WHAT KIND OF FEELING? THAT LEO'S NOT COMING BACK. OH, SWEETIE. OF COURSE HE'S COMING BACK. HOW COULD HE NOT? I DON'T KNOW. IT'S JUST SOMETHING THAT CHRIS SAID ABOUT LEO HAVING TO GO THROUGH THIS ALONE. I DON'T KNOW. WHAT THE HELL IS HE DOING UP THERE? SORRY TO INTERRUPT, BUT WE'RE ALL LEAVING NOW. WAIT. WHY? DIDN'T YOU HEAR THE DISTRESS CALL? THE SURVIVING ELDERS HAVE ALL BEEN FLUSHED OUT, AND THEY NEED OUR PROTECTION. SURVIVING? THE ELF'LL STAY BEHIND TO TAKE CARE OF THE KID WHILE YOU BATTLE THE TITANS.
