[CHUCKLES]

Swan.

I don't need anything from New York.

No, just-just have
fun with your brother.

Yeah. [CHUCKLES]

I miss you, too.

Okay.

Bye.

- _
- Which veggie can

either break a hex or
make you fall in love,

but it'll always spice up your life?

Uh... Oh, uh, chili peppers?

[LAUGHS]

Damn. I thought I had you.

[LAUGHS SOFTLY]

RUBY: How did he find us?

Don't know. Just run.

Hello, Sunshine.

[GASPS]

Stay the hell away from us, Earl.

I'm sorry, Patty-Cakes,
but I can't do that.

You see, we're a family.

And family always sticks together.

You were never part of this family.

- Oh!
- Now, Sunshine,

that's no way to talk to your father.

You could never fill my dad's shoes,

even with a clone,

- you abusive piece...
- Ruby, storm spell.

BOTH: Dearest Indra, God of storms,

help us conjure weathering storms.

Winds that sweep, make them swarm!

[WIND BLOWING]

Mom! What are you doing?

I'm sorry, baby, but we
can't keep living like this.

Witchness Protection is our only chance.

But...

A life without magic?

Is better than a life
looking over our shoulders.

Go!

[PIANO PLAYING SOFTLY]

This is why I do all my shopping online.

Well, good luck finding a sacred,

magical bowl on the Internet.

Fair point.

Clearly, your father didn't realize

what he had on his
hands with this Unity Bowl.

Can we not talk about Ray right now?

Well, Maggie, I'm sure he
didn't tell you about his heart

because he didn't want to worry you.

Well, mission un-accomplished.

I'd strangle him if I wasn't so worried

about the curse k*lling him first.

I know.

But right now, we need to
stay focused on the Unity Bowl.

If we could assemble it,
we might find the instructions

for how to break his curse.

And from what I can tell,

the other half of it was
sold here a decade ago.

Right. You take that row,

I'll take this one.

_

Nothing ominous about that.

Keep that up and it's

Yeah, well, turns out
getting your thumb cut off

and then magically reattached
kind of hurts like a bitch.

Hmm. Sorry.

Jordan's still off keeping Ray alive,

so you're just gonna have to stick

with good old-fashioned ice for now.

How are you otherwise?

Oh, you know... [CHUCKLES]

just obsessively
watching the magical life

I almost had on repeat.

How many times have you done

the provenance spell
on your baby blanket?

Thirty-seven.

Damn.

I know.

[SIGHS] At least I got
their license plate out of it.

It's years out of
date, but it's a clue.

My dad's got this buddy... ChooChi.

An ex-cop who's helped us
with this sort of thing before.

Yeah, thank you, but...

[SIGHS]

What if they don't want to meet me?

- Kaela.
- I mean, they did give me up.

But it may not be for
the reason that you think.

For all we know, they could
have stashed you away

because some dark wizard was after you.

I'm pretty sure that's Harry Potter.

Fine. But you get the point.

We are going to find them,

and when we do, this
is all gonna make sense.

Us, our connection, why
you're a Charmed One...

They'll have the answers.

I'm gonna head back
to the command center,

see if Maggie's back yet.

Hey, you want some company?

You just focus on you, all right?

Okay.

May I help you with something?

Yes.

I'm looking for any
information you might have

about an old artifact
called the Unity Bowl.

I managed to acquire one half of it.

I was told the other half
was sold here some time ago.

I'm not in the habit of
divulging my clients' information.

But for the right price...

Mm. I could make an exception.

Good.

Any luck?

You.

What?

You're not welcome here, Charmed One.

Seriously?

Both of you need to leave my shop now.

We're trying to save my dad's life.

Of course you are.

Selfish spa queen.

- Excuse me?
- Maggie,

- let's just get out of here.
- MAGGIE: No, no, no.

Not till Krazy Kermit shows
me what's on that scroll.

That's mine, you fascist.

What the hell are you doing?

[SNIFFLES]

Hey. You okay?

Oh, what is it?

He... I don't...

I don't know how, but, um...

He found me.

Who?

My demon stepdad.

He's back.

Why won't it come off?

Bloody hell.

I could've gotten super-speed or,

I don't know, invisibility, but...

[STRAINS] I had to mimic

literally the worst power on Earth.

- You need to relax.
- I am relaxed!

[PANTING]

Sorry.

[EXHALES] I'm just so tired

of people who don't even
know me gossiping about me.

Spreading lies.

You can't let them get to you like that.

Whoever's behind all
this, it's what they want.

I know that, but I can't help it.

Just like I can't make these stupid

powers go away for some reason.

Maybe if I can figure out what that

sticky-fingered psycho was,

I could control them somehow?

Let me help you.

And, no. No.

Let me see.

Ah.

The Loveland frog.

"Foul-tempered amphibian

"indigenous to Ohio.

"Secretes a sticky..."

Oh, I don't even know
how to pronounce that.

Batrachotoxin. A lethal poison.

Like his much smaller
cousin the dart frog.

This just keeps getting better.

Well, it says here it's
only fatal to humans.

Magical creatures are immune.

Oh, good.

So I'm persona non
Grata in the magical world,

and Miss m*rder Fingers
in the human world.

It's not all bad.

If those powers hadn't made
your hand stick to the sales ledger,

we never would have gotten away with it.

So, there's that.

You were saying?

Ah.

Just when I think it is finally safe

to live my life like a
normal person, wham...

I get a bouquet of damn sunflowers.

Are you sure they're not from Swan?

[EXHALES]

He left a note.

"I've missed you, Sunshine."

Well, that's not creepy.

Do you think this is
'cause of my campaign?

Demons don't usually pay
attention to human politics,

but what if, uh...

What if he saw my photo

on-on the Internet or something?

Oh, my God.

I know how he found you.

Wh... How?

It wasn't because of your campaign.

It was because of me.

MAGGIE: This is so weird.

How did he sell the same bowl

four times in less than years?

If Ray's curse is any indication,

each buyer likely d*ed
after purchasing the bowl.

Then our amphibious friend
would simply retrieve and resell it.

Sociopath.

Last purchased April , .

Any info on the buyer?

Uh, just the initials D.B.

Oh, there's a third letter here,
too, but it's been smudged.

Whoa.

Whoa.

Uh, this isn't ink.

This is blood.

And if my new powers are activating...

It's the blood of a dead person.

- [DOOR OPENS]
- MEL: Guys.

We have a serious problem.

The hit list is out.

We found them. All the known
associates of the Charmed Ones.


And we, the Unseen,
will bring these tyrants


and their sympathizers down

by any means necessary!

And we can start right here.

I don't know how,

but they have the names
of everyone we care about.

They know where we live.

They even know Kaela was adopted

and they're looking for her bio-parents.

- We have to warn Kaela.
- ChooChi's got a lead

on her parents, but you should get home

and put a seal on the house.

What about you?

Do you remember blindaje dolls?

Yeah, they're, like, a one-time use,

get-out-of-death free card, right?

MEL: Yep. And it's the
perfect way to protect

a lot of people at once.

Only problem, the spell was
in the O.G. Book of Shadows,

which went up in flames in Hilltowne.

Well, good thing I can
move objects through time.

You go handle Kaela.

I got this.

And I'll do what I can about
finding the other half of the bowl.

Hey, Rubes.

Do you want to see me defy
the laws of time and space?

[LAUGHS]: Hey!

No.

I'm Kaela. Michaela. Yo.

[BRITISH ACCENT]:
Hello love. Isn't this crazy?

That was weird, I'm not even British.

[REGULAR ACCENT]: I'm
your daughter. I'm your daughter.

I'm your daughter. My thumb got cut off.

[LAUGHS] Because I'm a witch.

A Charmed One. What
kind of witch are you?

[DOOR OPENS]

I don't think we were followed.

Let's just find Kaela,
make sure she's okay.

Why wouldn't I be okay?

Okay, sprinkle some sage on the candle.

I'd do it myself, but...

Ugh!

Should I even ask?

Nope. We've got bigger frogs to fry.

[GROANS] Welcome
to the busted hands club.

That should keep the house

protected while we go find your parents.

Sounds great.

Hey.

It's okay to not be okay
with all this bio-parents stuff.

What? It's fine.

I'm fine.

Kaela.

You're this close to
figuring out who you are.

Why you're a Charmed One.

And now your parents might be in danger.

I mean, that's a lot to take in.

Okay. Okay.

Suppose that we do find them.

What am I supposed to say?

How about "hi"?

Right. Um, okay. Hi.

Right.

And then do I hug them?

I... What if they're not huggers?

They've got to be some magical species.

I mean, maybe if I manifest them
something and gave it to them...

Kaela. You're overanalyzing.

Yeah, of course I'm overanalyzing.

Okay, well, think of it this way.

Even if it's not under
the best circumstances,

at least you still get
to meet your parents.

My bio-dad, Dexter, d*ed
before I even knew he existed.

Life is too short to
let fear rule our lives.

Sometimes we just have to

jump and see where we land.

Yeah, you're right.

Hmm.

[PHONE BUZZES, CHIMES]

- _
- Good.

'Cause your parents' names
are Zephyr and Carolyn Vales.

And they live in Georgia.

Let's do this.

♪ ♪

[LAUGHS]

So, so...

So that's really the...

Original Book of Shadows.

Eventually, I'll have to return it

to the exact time and place.

Can't go unraveling the
space-time continuum, right?

Right. But for now,

watch this.

Show me how to make blindaje dolls.

Who are you?

Full disclosure.

Drop the shield.

All the secrets be revealed.

"DBV."

Time to see who you really are.

[GASPS]

[OVERLAPPING WHISPERS]

MAN: You shouldn't be here, Harry.

Dexter?

[BOTH EXHALE]

Okay.

Mel needs names,

birthdays, and species
for the blindaje dolls.

We've got the first
two thanks to ChooChi.

That just leaves...

Species.

[EXHALES]

[SIGHS]

This is really happening.

If you're too nervous, I can go in first

to get the info Mel needs.

To protect them from
whatever unseen evil

are trying to k*ll them.

Then, when you feel ready,

you can come inside.

No.

I want to do this.

I need to do this.

[KNOCKING]

Afternoon.

Hi.

Can I help y'all with something?

Um...

Yeah, actually, um,

our car broke down
and our phones are dead.

And...

So we-we were just...

Wondering if we could maybe use yours?

[CHUCKLES]

Uh, sure. Uh, come on in.

You go.

[RASPING, WHEEZING]

HARRY: It was you.

In the ledger.

Dexter B. Vaughn.

You need to go.

Before she realizes you still

have a life force and tries to take it.

I can handle myself in the Veil.

But what are you doing here?

You should know better than anyone.

When you devote your life
to powerful, magical women...

that business is never quite finished.

Thank you, by the way.

For loving my daughter.

Both of them, really.

It was the honor of my life.

[SCREECHES]

Which brings me to why I'm here.

I need to know why you
bought the Unity Bowl.

'Cause it was my last sh*t at happiness.

When both halves are assembled,

the Bowl can undo any curse.

Oh, you were trying to break
the Necromancer's curse

so you could be with Marisol.

And both of my daughters.

Yeah.

But fate had other plans.

Harry.

[SCREECHES]

[SHORT CHUCKLE]

You don't remember my birthday?

- _
- I remember.

Okay, uh, what is it?

November rd.

- November th?
- Mm-mmm.

- th?
- th.

- Damn it.
- It's cool, I'm just...

Surprised.

You made such a big to-do about it,

with dinner and presents.

You meant a lot.

Even when I was too distracted

or busy to show it.

Well...

It meant a lot to me, too.

Even if I was too proud to say it.

- Rubes, I'm...
- It's fine.

It's...

Fine, uh...

Birthday, November th...

.

[SIGHS]

Let's just hope I live
to see another one.

We're gonna get through this.

I promise.

Okay. Uh...

That's a doll for everyone
the Unseen are hunting.

Except Kaela's birth parents.

But it looks like we're
almost out of lavender.

Oh, I think there's some upstairs.

[DOOR CREAKS]

Okay, now I need you to tell me

- where Ruby is.
- MAN: I really don't know.

- I know...
- What is it?

He's here.

EARL: I'm not messing around here.

Just tell me.

Tell me.

Tell me...

Where Ruby is.

I don't think he saw you.

Let's just go back to
the command center.

- Tell me!
- I'm sorry...


Hiya, sunshine.

Grab my arm.

[INDISTINCT CHATTER]

Where are we?

The Blue Camellia.

It's kind of like a magical...

What the hell is she doing here?

Safe haven.

How dare she come in
here as if nothing happened?

RUBY: You sure? 'Cause, uh, there's

a lot of angry faces looking this way.

I may or may not have
had a hot girl summer

and ghosted a few magical ladies.

- Ignore them.
- WOMAN: Want a beer? [GRUNTS]

Damn, girl.

How many magical ladies did you ghost?

We're running out of time, Harry.

I'll go after you tell me

what you know about the Unity Bowl.

Anything that could help save Ray.

Ray Vera?

I know you two probably
didn't have the best relationship.

That's putting it mildly.

Well, he's dying.

And that Bowl might
be able to save his life.

Maggie already lost her sister.

Don't let her lose her father, too.

Please.

When I was looking for
the Bowl, I heard a story.

That thousands of years ago,
the original nine clans

of magic came together
to fight an ancient enemy.

Each creature poured its powers into

the Unity Bowl to forge some kind

of ultimate power that the
world had never seen before.

How have I never heard about this?

Look out!

Get down!

NIVEA WOMAN: The Charmed
Ones body wash can't be trusted!

WOMAN : You're wrong!
They're peacekeepers!

Something tells me this isn't
about you ghosting ladies.

It's the Unseen and their propaganda.

- People are starting to lose it.
- Enough!

Time to smoke y'all out!

- Roxy, I am so...
- No.

Nope, no.

You don't get to apologize for this.

You know, I never even
needed a failsafe button

under the bar till you
started coming here,

riling people up, drawing
in t*rror1st hobgoblins.

It is not my fault that the
magical world is falling apart.

Well, it's not not your fault.

And you, Curly Sue...

Find yourself a new girlfriend.


Kiss-N-Tell-Mel is nothing but trouble.

Okay, the name's Ruby. And we're not...

I mean-I mean, we're just...

Not anymore.

The Unseen doxxed
everyone that I care about.

Now a demon from her past is after her.

[LAUGHS]

Like I said.

Trouble.

Fine.

But I am just trying to protect Ruby.

So can we please stay here
while I figure out what to do?

Grab a mop.

What?

This place won't clean itself.

I'm sorry I dragged you into this.

It's not your fault.

It is.

The only reason you
have a target on your back

is because you and I were together.

Mel, I've running for six years

because my stepdad is a psycho.

Not because of you.

I'm just happy that

Swan's out of town for all this.

Roxie's right.

The whole magical world's a mess,

and so am I.

What's worse is that I have

no idea how to fix any of it.

Mel, look at me.

Nothing's broken that can't be fixed.

Not this bar.

Not the magical world.

Not Ray.

Hell, even the Iron Maiden

will come around eventually.

Roxie?

I mean, she cute when she mad, but damn

if she ain't scary.

You know, she can hear everything

that happens down here.

Good.

Then let her hear this.

Even if we're not a thing anymore,

I will always have your back.

And I'll always have yours.

What do you say we take

the fight to this demon together?

I thought you wanted to
wait for Mags and Kaela.

We are two badass women.

We can handle this ourselves.

ROXIE: Make that three badass women.

What?

The Iron Maiden wants in on this action.

[MUFFLED]: You all right, sweetie?

Huh?

I said are you all right?

You seem a bit out of it.

Oh, um...

[LAUGHS] Yeah, I'm...

I'm fine.

Sorry.

Want some sweet tea while you wait

for your friend to call a mechanic?

Oh, sure.

That'd be great.

Thanks.

Are you an artist?

Uh, that would be me.

Um, sculptures, mostly.

But, um...

I do a bit of everything.

[CHUCKLES SOFTLY]

What about you?

Wildlife ecologist.

That's so cool.

Um...

Right. Well...

It was so lovely to meet you both.

We better be going.

MAGGIE: Isn't there something
you want to ask them first?

KAELA: Uh, I can't.

Thank you for the tea.

- Okay.
- Yeah.

[ZEPHYR GRUNTING]

[CHUCKLES]

Sorry.

I had some gum earlier.

She's always chewing gum.

Thank you.

Well, uh, good luck with that car.

- [THUMP]
- [GLASS BREAKS]

[KAELA GASPS]

What the hell just happened?

- Oh, God.
- What?

Kaela, your bio-parents
aren't magical at all.

If my frog toxin did that to them,

they're human.

ROXIE: So, he's what?

Run-of-the-mill demon...

Big, beefy, dumb as a box of rocks?

Pretty much. Only
this one can duplicate.

MEL: Then we'll just
have to vanquish his ass

the second he smokes in, before
he gets the chance to double.

But if he does manage to
make a clone, I'll be ready.

Duncan's probably found him at SafeSpace

by now and given him a matchbook.

We need to hurry.

I owe you one, Rox.

You owe me a lot more than that.

Well, I'm sorry

for any chaos I've caused,

intentional or not.

Mel...

I'm a Circadian.

This isn't my first

magical propaganda w*r.

[SOFT WHOOSHING]

RUBY: You guys?

Showtime.

There's my sunshine.

MEL: Ugh. Just die already.

[GRUNTS]

Another clone?

[SHOUTS]

That wasn't so bad.

[LAUGHS]

You only said he could double.

He upgraded?

MEL: We need to regroup.

Just run.

This doesn't make any sense.

I'm a Charmed One.

How are my parents just basic,

sweet-tea-drinking humans?

I don't know. But if it
weren't for my toxic hand,

at least they'd still be breathing.

Maggie, this-this isn't your fault.

It is my fault.

This power should have
gone away hours ago.

Kind of seems like you're
holding onto something

instead of getting it off your chest.

How are you the one
therapizing me right now?

Because it's okay not
to be okay, remember?

Listen, no matter what

any of this means, you
and I are still sisters,

even if we're technically not.

[CHUCKLES]

Now let's finish up that
antidote and save them.

EARL: Oh, come on, sunshine.

This is no way to treat
someone who loves you.


Okay.

There are only three out there, but

how do we tell the
clone from the real one?

Earl's demon eyes don't lie.

Only the real Earl's flash red.

But the last time I saw him,
he could barely keep

one clone going,

and he couldn't clone a matchbook.

I don't know how he did that.

Obsession is a hell of
a motivator to level up.

Then let's use that
obsession against him.

Is that...

Nightingale potion.

It allows us borrow your voice

to divide and conquer.

You gonna tell her or should I?

To activate the potion we need to...

Kiss you.

Oh.

Oh, okay.

Uh, yeah, yeah, I can handle that

if-if y'all can.

[SOFT CHUCKLE]

Not bad, Curly Sue.

Okay.

Well?

[RUBY'S VOICE]: Please
don't tell Swan that I did that.

Just a few drops should do it.

Are they gonna remember this?

No.

The Nader flowers I added
will wipe their memories.

Okay.

- I'm gonna wait outside
- Okay.

[BOTH GROAN]

Hey, you okay?

What happened?

There was a gas leak

and you passed out.

And who are you?

Um...

I'm your daughter.
