Manor hall. Raige trundles in through the front door and slings her purse down on the table as Piper descends the stairs. "I hate it when you're right!" Raige snits. She asks if Piper remembers the spell Raige cast last week "to help [Collagyn] get her son back." Because the script says she must, Piper does indeed remember that spell. The script has no power over me, however, so I don't. Raige cast a spell to heal the bruises on Collagyn's face. Granted, Collagyn then hauled her upper lip and split ends into family court and got her son back, but the spell had nothing to do with it. Whatever. Raige and Piper believe Raige's promotion is a personal-gain side effect of the spell, which is complete bullshit because Raige cast the spell simply to help someone in need, but again, whatever. My arguments carry no weight here. Raige and Piper start to natter about how to correct this side effect as Kurzon squiggles into the dining room behind them. Raige clamps her hands on Piper's shoulders and shoves her to the floor as Kurzon prepares a Flaming Ball Of Death. Raige summons the FBOD, which orbs from Kurzon's hand into her own. She wings the FBOD back in his direction, but her aim is off. It skitters across the dining room table to smack into the wall. Kurzon tosses another FBOD at Raige, who orbs out as it approaches her. She orbs back in mid-air, flailing her arms and legs for a bit before dropping to the floor. "I have had enough of this," Piper grits. "Buh-bye." She flicks her hand in Kurzon's direction, and the demon explodes into a haze of demon bits that presently reassemble themselves. "Two witches!" yells Kurzon. "KHAN!" Okay, it was "Damn her!" but Kurzon totally Shatnered his delivery there. He squiggles out with half of the dining room wall clenched between his teeth.
Piper and Raige collect themselves from the floor. Piper calls for the Dolt, who orbs in, only to have his wife berate him. Piper bitches about the "strangely Source-like" demon who just accosted them, and demands, "Can't we get a freaking day off around here?" The Dolt's answer is basically no. TPTB told him that a power vacuum exists in Hell that can be filled by the first dark demonic force who manages to off the Ps. While the gals "set [Eeevil] back a couple of decades" by getting rid of The Source, their jobs are by no means done. Piper remarks that Kurzon didn't seem to realize who they were, which she finds "insulting," by the way. The Dolt reminds her that if Kurzon didn't recognize the Charmed Ones when he initially attacked, he's certain to know who they are now. The three repair to the attic for some research.
