Episode Report Card Demian: C | Grade It Now! YOU GRADE IT The Demon Who Came In From Thzzzzzzzzzzz
By Demian | Season 3 | Episode 19 | Aired on 04.25.2001
Back at the Intersection That Doesn't Exist, Vornack checks his watch, and announces the time has come to fry up a little CEO. He orders a lackey into a car, and then steps off to the side to watch the plot unfold. As the lackey revs the engine, Kappa Kappa Klea squiggles in beside Vornack. Her Cheshire eyes precede the rest of her, of course, which I think is just nifty. Of course, this episode has been so frigging boring thus far, watching paint dry would probably amuse me at this point. Kappa Kappa Klea announces she "can't prove [Cole's] story one way or the other." Vornack replies it doesn't matter; Cole will have a chance to prove himself presently. They stride up to stand with Cole and Tarquin. Kappa Kappa Klea shoots daggers at Cole with her Cheshire eyes. The four turn to watch Pirelli's limousine exiting an underground parking garage. The lackey guns the engine and zips off down the street to block the limousine's path. Pirelli's chauffeur leaps from the driver's seat to rant at the lackey, ordering him to "move the car. NOW!" Vornack, Tarquin, and Kappa Kappa Klea stare expectantly at Cole. "Kill or be killed," Vornack orders, and Cole steps into the middle of the street. The lackey studiously ignores the chauffeur's demands, then scampers away from the scene. The Colethazor conjures an FBOD in his right hand, and prepares to toss it at the limo. He flings it just as the Ps and the Dolt round the corner at the opposite end of the street. Piper quickly freezes everything. Hooting from the gals as they urge the Dolt to hurry it up with his part of the plan. The Dolt scoots into the limo's back seat, grabs Pirelli's arm, and orbs out with the businessman. The three Ps then stride past the frozen demons. Phoebe suggests they take Cole along with them. Prue reminds Phoebe they must leave him at the scene. Cole "has to look innocent after the fact," she explains. "He's got to figure a way out on his own." Phoebe pauses to slip a folded strip of paper into Cole's jacket pocket, strokes his face, and rejoins her sisters.
Prue and Phoebe scuttle behind a stucco wall behind the frozen demons as Piper leans out and unfreezes everything in the street. The FBOD slams into the hood of the limo, knocking the chauffeur to the ground. The initial impact is followed by a general explosion. Prue, Piper, and Phoebe watch for a moment, then dart off. Vornack tells Kappa Kappa Klea to retrieve Pirelli's body from the wreckage. She Cheshire squiggles out. Cole wonders why Vornack wants Pirelli's remains. Vornack tells Cole should "the humans" find Pirelli's corpse, "it might alert them to the switch." Cole: Whuh? Vornack passes a hand in front of his face, morphs into Pirelli, smirks, and squiggles away. Vorelli squiggles back in next to the shattered limousine. Bodyguards hoist him to his feet and shove him into a van, which tears off away from the accident. Tarquin crosses to Cole's side to congratulate him on a clean kill. You can just feel the "fraternal" love here, people. Kappa Kappa Klea squiggles back in to note Pirelli's body is missing. She glares accusingly at Cole, who avoids her gaze guiltily.
