Episode Report Card Demian: C | 0 USERS: N/A YOU GRADE IT Once In A Blue Moon
By Demian | Season 7 | Episode 6 | Aired on October 16, 2004
The 197 of you who voted for Sparklies in last week's "Death Is Actually An Option" poll are banned. Just so you know.
Previously on Charmed, Kerr Smith, Kerr Smith, Sparklies, Sparklies, James Van Der Beek, James Van Der Beek, James Van Der Beek, and Whiny Dolt. Again.
Currently on Charmed, we fade up on a slow pan down the dining room table, currently laden with both various types of prepackaged junk food and Raige's elbows. Phoebe staggers in from the stairs with a hot water bottle pressed against her lower abdomen to collapse into a chair next to her lippy bastard of a half-sister, wondering what the apparently hastily called family meeting's all about. Raige waves her hands around in the air without removing her elbows from the table and guesses it has something to do with the ongoing silent yet lethal war of attrition between the Psycho and Tiny Gay Chris. "Did something happen?" Phoebe gasps. "I'm sure they got kidnapped by the latest demon, or something," Raige too casually whatevers. Phoebe, clutching that hot water bottle like it's a pregnancy pad of her very own, looks stricken and very nearly sobs, "[Raige]. That is so not funny." Neither is an episode devoted to your synchronized menstrual cycles, but you don't hear me complaining. Yet. "You get so emotional when you're PMSed," Raige teases. "And you get mean," Phoebe pouts. "I do not!" Raige protests. "I'm above it all," she adds, with much renewed flapping of her hands as Piper suddenly barrels into the room from the kitchen with a bottle of wine. Piper's entrance startles Raige, who instantly orbs in place in surprise. "Riiiight," Phoebe eyebrows. "Nothing happens to you. You're above it all." Piper gets an earful of the hijinks and the sniping and looks like she's about to drain that entire bottle in one long gulp. Hey, back off, Piper. That's my job. "So I get a little jumpy," Raige sniffs. "And I get a little pissy," Piper warns, "so watch it." A little? And, what -- does this mean Piper's been PMSing for the last three seasons? Phoebe and Raige pretty much echo my sentiment before Piper eventually gets to the point. "I've been wanting to tell you guys something for a while, but I just didn't know how to say it," she begins. Phoebe bugs out her eyes and gulps, "Ohmigod, are you pregnant again?" No, Feebs. If she were pregnant again, she wouldn't be suffering from premenstrual syndrome, would she? Stupid. We're barely a minute in to the episode proper, and I can already tell this evening is going to SUCK
