Cut back to the manor kitchen. "Check out what I found in the attic," Phoebe tells Prue. Prue hopes it's "something old," as they already have "new, borrowed, and blue covered." It is indeed something old: the "blessing cup" of the Halliwell ur-witch Melinda Warren. Phoebe exposits that the goblet is the same used by Melinda at her own wedding three centuries ago. What I don't know about antique glass would fill volumes, but the goblet still looks more like something from a faux-Baroque bar set from the 1970s. Prue crosses the "something old" line item off her to-do list, then remarks that they need help "moving the buffet table." Phoebe hesitantly suggests they wait for Cole, who should be arriving at the manor shortly. Prue looks like she thinks Phoebe's on crack. Phoebe reminds Prue that she knew Cole would be attending the ceremony. Prue snots back that his presence at the ceremony is fine, but the hours leading up to the ceremony are for family only. "Cole is still a demon," she reminds the myriad of Charmed fans whose short-term memories have been fried by overindulgence in marijuana. She remarks further that she doesn't think Piper would approve. Before Prue can dig further into Phoebe's wounded sense of pride with this guilt trip, Piper squeals from the hall. Phoebe and Prue exit the kitchen to find Piper cowering behind the balustrade in curlers and a robe. "It is bad luck to see the bride's dress before the wedding," Piper snits to the Dolt. The Dolt notes that Piper's wearing a robe. Piper tells the Dolt to can it, and scurries back upstairs. The Dolt beams indulgently. Shut up, Dolt. The Dolt tells Prue and Phoebe he needs a place to change into his own robe, which he calls his "formal Whitelighter wear." Phoebe takes the robe from him, telling him they rented him a tuxedo for the occasion. The Dolt looks wounded. Shut up, Dolt.
