Phoebe's cell phone rings at the Historical Society. Prue fills her in, and, thinking Phoebe's still at the library, tells her to wait outside. Phoebe reveals she's actually at the Historical Society, and after a suspicious pause, Prue tells Phoebe she'll pick her up there. Phoebe looks conflicted. Or vacant. Your choice.
Back at the manor, the Hand of Piggy has led him to the sidewalk across the street from the house. Inside, SlutPiper clomps down the stairs, expressing impatience and wondering why she can't perform the spell on her own. RealPiper reminds SlutPiper that it's a Power of Three, so they have no choice but to wait for Prue and Phoebe's return. "What kind of witch can't kill a demon without her sisters?" SlutPiper snits. "What kind of demon has a panic attack when her boyfriend comes to visit?" RealPiper shoots back.
Piggy picks this moment to fling open the still-unlocked front door. He waddles on over to SlutPiper and TKs her to the floor. Piggy threatens her with a knife, the magic green bottle at the ready to store the Essence of Slut once Piggy has planted the knife in SlutPiper's chest. SlutPiper freezes him from her position on the floor. In a cleansing burst of synchronicity, Prue and Phoebe barrel in the door at that moment. Riiiight. SlutPiper hustles to their side with the vanquishing spell, which the three recite:
Let flesh be flesh, and bone be bone:Or "firestorm." Again, whatever works for you. The Piggy barbecue flames up. Before he dissolves into a puddle of flame, Piggy drops the magic green bottle and screams at Prue and Phoebe, telling them he would have helped them vanquish "her," but now his beautiful wickedness is melting! Melting! A shot of the three sisters, Prue standing confused in the center, and we cut to commercial.
The alchemist shall transform none.
Cruel scientist of evil born,
With these words, face the fire's scorn.
