Miss Phoebe If You're Nasty flings open the door and greets Officer Package with "I knew you'd come back for me." She quickly realizes that sexual ecstasy will not be on the menu this evening when Officer Package pushes the automatic into her side. He demands to know where the poor envious pastor is. Phoebe doesn't know. Officer Package, convinced she is lying, tosses her into a still-boxed Gateway computer. He then paces through the parlor, smashing purchases and ranting all the while. He blames Phoebe for his suspension, and promises her that "[she's] gonna pay. [She's] gonna pay right now." He rather creepily points the gun at her with both hands as she backs up the stairs, begging for her life. Seriously, that brief bit of threatened violence was a little too realistic for those of us accustomed to the usual cartoonishness of this show. The moment passes, however, when Piper enters from upstairs to squall, "My STUFF!" Officer Package aims the gun at Piper, who freezes him. He pulls himself out of the freeze, though, presumably because the Bath Bead of Gluttony has weakened Piper's powers and the Bath Bead of Anger is too strong to be contained. Officer Package squeezes off a shot that hits the Deluxe Tiffany Stained-Glass Flamingo, and again demands to know the pastor's whereabouts. He re-aims and squeezes off another shot as Phoebe leaps from the stairs to tackle him into another stack of Piper's purchases. Piper busies herself by tumbling down from the landing to crash into more of her new belongings, setting off a chain reaction that results in a large packing crate slamming her to the floor, pinning her underneath. Prue clomps down the stairs as Officer Package staggers to his feet, clawing at his stomach and screaming in Deadly Bath Bead pain. He starts to point the gun into his own face, but Prue TKs a hail of objects on his head until he's been rendered unconscious. Before she can see if Piper and Phoebe are all right, Kenickie smokes onto the landing behind her. He wraps an arm tightly around her neck, telling her she "can't save what is already lost." He smokes them both out of the manor, and we smoke into a commercial break.
