( police siren wailing )
( tires screeching )
The crystal. Where's the crystal?
It's over there.
Where? The cabinet.
Got it.
Isis.
Isis!
Don't die on me, not yet.
Not until we can find you another body.
Call upon the witch within,
use her powers.
I don't have the strength.
Find the strength.
It's the only way.
OK.
I found one.
Good. Can you tell?
Is she powerful enough to hold your spirit?
( weakly ) I don't know.
( dying gasp )
Until we meet again, my love.
( sirens )
Like moths to a flame.
Remember, nobody's taken him yet,
so watch your backs, follow my lead.
Any questions? No, sir.
Let's go.
( chanting spell )
Police! Freeze!
OFFICER: Clear in the bathroom!
Everything's locked from the inside.
How did he get out of here?
You don't want to know.
( dialing phone keys )
Phoebe Halliwell, please.
Tell her it's inspector Morris...
and it's important.
( theme music )
Piper, my hair is turning white out here. Come out already.
Piper: No! Come on.
It can't be that bad.
Ohh, it's cute.
I don't want to be cute.
I can't believe I let you talk me into this.
Oh, your pants weren't even buttoning anymore. Come on.
Well, I could've gone up a size or two.
I don't need to resort to maternity clothes.
Everything is just so bright and cheery and ruffly.
This thing makes me look like a--
Adorable.
Absolutely adorable.
I think it's you.
Hmm. I guess you don't know me very well, do you?
Piper.
Look, do you have anything that would go with combat boots?
You know, something for the mom-to-be
who kicks some ass upon occasion.
You know, something in black or gray.
I'll check.
Oh, motherhood.
OK. Explain to me the touching thing.
Why is my stomach suddenly public property
and perfect strangers are always touching me?
It's weird space invasion.
Are you listening? No, I'm not.
What's the matter with your neck? It's this cramp.
I've had it for a couple days now.
Well, why don't you get a massage?
Oh, yeah, I'll pencil that in,
right between vanquishing demons
and training to be your midwife.
No.
Well, A: I don't need midwives,
because I'm delivering with a doctor, not sisters,
and B: you need to start taking care of yourself
because you've actually been working harder than when you were working.
Yeah. well, someone has to pick up the slack,
especially with hermit lady just lying around the house.
The "hermit lady"? Yeah. Phoebe.
Have you noticed she hasn't left the house in weeks?
What do you mean? She leaves the house every morning.
No. she leaves the house to go to work.
I can understand wanting to take a break from guys,
but come on already. She's gonna wear out the batteries.
Oh, Paige. What?
( cell phone rings )
Hello?
Oh, hey, Phoebe.
We were just talking about you.
And your batteries.
Darryl's at the house?
Five murders... five cities,
but this is the first one in San Francisco.
We were hot on his tail, following a tip, and then he just vanished.
That's creepy. He's killing his victims
and then mummifying them. What gives?
That's why I called Phoebe. I was hoping you could tell me.
Well, just because it's creepy, doesn't mean it's demonic.
I mean, there's plenty of human wackos out there.
Stop fidgeting, would you? You look fine.
I look ridiculous.
Phoebe, will you tell her that she looks fine.
You look so cute.
If you ask me, there's nothing more beautiful than a preg...
Do it and you pull back a bloody stub.
She's a little sensitive right now.
I can see that.
OK. Demons, witches.
fill them in, will ya?
I have an important lunch date at the office.
You have a date?
Oh, well, it's actually more like an appointment down the hall.
It's a facial.
MORRIS: Look, we think...
I think that the victim may have been a witch,
so, if she was, maybe they all were.
Which means you need to watch your backs.
Sand, don't forget the sand. MORRIS: Uh, right.
In each case, there's been a pile of sand found by the mummy.
My guess is it's got something to do with how he escapes.
What's with the bug on the chest?
I already have Leo asking the Elders about that.
PHOEBE: OK, if we leave now, I should be able to go to the crime scene,
get a quick premonition, and then be back
at the office in time for my appointment. OK. so who's driving?
Whoa. Who says that you're going to the crime scene?
Is that a problem?
Only my reputation. Look, it's taken me
a long time to lose the freaky-deaky rap.
No offense, but I don't need it back right now.
"Freaky-deaky rap?" You know what I mean.
Why can't you just tell 'em that we're psychics, like you usually do?
I can't risk it. I'm up for promotion.
And if I get passed over this time,
there's not gonna be a next time.
All right. what do you want us to do?
The right thing, as usual.
Come on, follow me.
No, not you. You're pregnant.
Yes, I am. I am also invincible and self-healing.
You gonna tell the other inspectors that?
Look, I'm sorry, but not even pregnant cops are allowed at crimes scenes
because of the forensic chemicals.
OK. Well, we'll go. You stay here,
look in the Book of Shadows for mummies.
Mommy. Nah.
Unh!
The linen wrapping, though curiously air-tight,
appears to be of a thread count
more consistent with a hand weave.
After I cut into it, forensics should test and date the sample.
All right. Let's see what's inside.
( starts saw )
( screams, groans )
Nobody messes with you, do they, my love?
Sorry for leaving you back there,
But I needed to check on your next body.
I think you're going to like it.
They're with me. Hold it, inspector.
They got to sign in. Right. sorry.
Phoebe Halliwell. Mm-hmm.
Uh, Paige Matthews.
Field of expertise?
We're psychics.
You got a problem with that, officer?
No, sir.
( chuckles ) Psychics.
Your girlfriend's cheating on you, by the way.
Look. Forensics has been all through here,
so you can touch anything you want.
Just, uh, Make it quick, OK?
( pager beeps ) I'll be back.
So, that guy at the door was kind of cute, huh?
Really? I hadn't noticed.
God, you've been out of commission for longer than I thought.
Yeah, she was definitely a witch. Look at all this stuff.
Of course, I guess I can understand,
you know, all the stuff you've been through with Cole.
OK, shush. I'm trying to concentrate here.
But you don't want to let it go for too long,
because, you know, that would be unhealthy,
and you are anything but unhealthy.
Paige, don't worry about me. I'm fine.
You know, It's just the whole idea of dating right now,
it's just like... yuck, you know.
I just... I need some time.
Well, just don't take too much time.
Look, a map.
Ohh, she was definitely...
Scrying?
Yeah, but the question is, for what?
Steal it.
I'm sorry.
I think I know a way of figuring this out at home.
Paige, that's evidence. I can't steal evidence.
( sighs ) Crystal.
Did you get anything?
No. God, not a thing,
but we'll see you later.
LEO: I think you look beautiful.
How long have you been standing there?
A minute or two.
Well, that's just not fair. You're not allowed to orb in
unless I'm completely aware of it.
Sorry.
I was mesmerized.
Oh, please.
No. I mean it, Piper.
I think you look absolutely stunning,
and I can't believe that you don't think you do.
No, it's not that. It's just...
It's like suddenly I'm wearing this big fat neon sign
that says, "look out, everybody.
She's pregnant. Careful."
And everybody's treating me so differently.
I'm still me.
There's just a whole lot more of me going on.
Hey, guys. Oh, I'm sorry. Were you ranting?
Yes, I was, but now I'm done,
Thank you. Where's Phoebe?
She went back to work.
She didn't want to miss her facial.
What?
Relax, she's just an orb away.
So, did you find anything?
Yeah. the demon... maybe...
His name is Jeric,
and apparently he's been at this for quite some time,
only back then the killings were isolated to the Middle East:
Cairo, Istanbul, Tripoli.
So, what's he doing here?
Well, the same thing he's been doing, trying to find the perfect body for his lover Isis.
He keeps trying to find a body to host her spirit, but the bodies keep dying.
No, you mean, the witches keep dying.
Right. Well, two spirits can't occupy the same body.
The invading spirit overloads it.
That's why he's trying to find a witch
with enough magic for Isis to use
to dispossess the host body. Of course.
Are you telling me she's going to evict someone
from their own body? That's rude.
Basically, yeah.
So what do mummies have to do with any of this?
Well, he mummifies a corpse to trap Isis' spirit
to keep it from moving on until he can find a new body.
That must be what she's scrying for.
"Scrying secrets come to me,
drop again so I might see."
See what?
Fifth and Hyde?
Oh, that's Phoebe.
Great body.
Mind if I borrow it for a while?
PHOEBE: Yeah, I do.
Phoebe, no! Unh!
Anything?
No. ( sighs )
What about you?
Nothing.
Well, this is just unacceptable, people.
We've got all the magic in the world here.
There's got to be a way. We cannot not find Phoebe.
Unless...
No. No "unless." She's not dead.
She's possessed, and that is all.
LEO: She's right. Jeric needs her body.
How long can she last until she burns up?
I don't know. Probably not long.
All the more reason to find her faster.
You keep scrying. You keep sensing.
It's no use, Piper. Jeric is blocking her signal.
But you said even if Phoebe was possessed,
she would be aware of what's going on.
Right, but there's nothing that she can do about it.
The invading spirit is suppressing hers.
( telephone rings )
Hello.
Guess what?
The mummy's missing.
What? Hold on.
I'm gonna put you on speaker phone. Say that again.
MORRIS:The mummy's missing, the Coroner's dead, and I'm screwed.
Why is the mummy missing? How are you screwed?
Because they're blaming me for losing him in the first place,
which means if I don't find him...
Bye-bye, promotion.
It pales in comparison to a killer demon being on the loose, I know,
but, you know, it still matters to me and my family.
Yes, well, speaking of family...
We got a few problems of our own here.
MORRIS:What's wrong? Uh, I'll catch you up later.
Uhh, Piper...
I'm sorry, but we need to
concentrate on Phoebe.
OK. Well, we can't leave Darryl high and dry
after everything he's done for this family.
There's got to be something we can do.
Well, short of helping him arrest a demon,
I'm not sure what we can really do.
I have an idea, but I'd have to break some rules.
So I think you should break a few rules then. We owe him.
You're right. You go do what you gotta do,
and we're gonna do what we have to do.
( chanting spell )
( gasps )
Easy. Not so fast.
Welcome back, my love.
You sure this is such a good idea?
Well, he's found her before, hasn't he?
Yeah, but Cole's crazy now! COLE: Ohh!
Unh!
Ooh.
Damn. Still here.
You OK?
Yeah, I'm still alive...
for now.
What's the matter, Cole?
Forget you're indestructible?
Heh. What the hell you guys doing here?
Witnessing a meltdown, apparently.
Ever thought of therapy?
Thanks. I'd rather chop my head off than have it examined.
Wait, that's an idea.
Oh, my God.
I can't wait to see how I survive this.
OK, then. Good luck with all that.
And we're just gonna go.
No. we got to find Phoebe.
Did you guys actually want something,
or did you just come to add to my misery?
A demon has taken Phoebe, and we need you to find her.
Oh, yeah, really? Well, heh...
Sorry, but just in case you forgot,
she's the reason I became like this.
So...ciao!
Uhh!
Unh!
Wait! Ohh!
Can't you at least let me not die in peace?
Cole, we think this guy Jeric has possessed Phoebe.
Wait.
Did you say "Jeric"?
The mummy guy? Do you know him?
Are you kidding? He's legendary in demonic circles.
Oh, of course, he is.
Actually, he goes all the way back to ancient Egypt.
But they didn't have the power to vanquish him then,
so they just mummified him instead.
Mummifying.
Hey! Stay with us here.
How did Jeric get demummified?
Oh, uh, some evil witch
cast a spell which released him,
and then they fell in love,
and she got killed by his enemies.
Flayed alive, if memory serves.
Poor guy's been wracked with guilt.
He's been trying to find a replacement body ever since.
Oh, it'd almost be romantic
if he hadn't killed so many witches.
Hey, he's just a guy trying to get his love back.
There's nothing wrong with that.
Actually, we could probably work together.
What are you talking about?
PAIGE: Cole!
Looks like we just made a bad thing worse.
( gasps )
( Egyptian music playing )
Glad to see you're feeling so alive.
It's this body.
I've never felt so much power before,
passion, desire.
Maybe I should leave you two alone.
No. Just because the witch is in me
doesn't mean there's not still room for you, too.
Tempting... but I suggest
you try to rid yourself of her first.
Have you come up with a spell?
The witch's knowledge was very useful.
Then by all means, reward her.
Send her spirit into the afterlife.
Hopefully, she'll have enough power to make it work.
"Together no more through time,
expel her soul,
leave only mine."
Well?
I can still hear her thoughts.
Then you have to try again.
Sorry, but that's my witch!
Oh, please, is that all you got?
By the way, my compliments
on the tomb's protective charms.
This place is not easy to get into.
Who are you?
Oh. Cole Turner.
I used to be the source of all evil.
You're Jeric, right?
I feel like I already know you.
We've got so much in common.
Do we?
Yeah, well, you know,
we're both trying to get our love back.
Unfortunately, your love is currently in my love,
and that's where we have a little problem.
Your love doesn't want you back.
I can feel it.
Yeah, but that's where you come in.
I want you to mummify her for me.
Put her on ice for a while.
At least until I can figure out a way to win her back.
Win her back? After that?
Please, you're insane.
Probably.
Leave us. Go back to where you came from.
Not until I get what I came for.
Let's not fight. I mean, uh...
I need you, you need me, so let's just--
I don't need you.
I'm afraid you do. In case you haven't noticed,
you're running out of time.
( groaning )
Oh, no, it can't be.
The others lasted longer.
Yeah. the more powerful the witch, the quicker the burnout.
It's really not very good.
But I bet the power of three could fix that permanently.
The power of three...
That might work.
I could get it for you.
You interested?
We won't give up her body without a replacement.
Well, I figured.
How do you feel about redheads?
Leo, what are you doing here?
I'm here to help you. Leo, I don't have time for this.
Somebody called me and said the killer was here.
I know. I made the call.
I figured it'd look good for you If you caught the guy.
You did? Where is he?
What are you doing? You can't...
( Leo's voice ) Go on, arrest me.
Leo, I-we-I...
We are not going to do this.
Come on, before the other cops get here.
I am not going to arrest you.
OK.
Ow! What did you do that for?
I'd hit me back if I were you.
I am not going to do this!
( siren wailing )
What are you doing?
Helping you out.
This is not good, Leo.
This is really not a good thing.
Ow!
Way to go, Inspector. Good job.
Yeah. Thanks.
( police radio chattering )
I'm telling you, it's not gonna work. we already tried it.
No, you tried it. The baby and I haven't.
If Cole can find her then so can we.
But you can't just tap into the baby's powers whenever you want.
No? Watch me.
Whoa.
What's happening?
I don't know.
( gasps )
I guess our map wasn't big enough.
Egypt? Phoebe is in Egypt?
On the bright side, We'll get to see the pyramids?
Quips later, orbing now.
You know, this happened a little too easily.
What if it's a trap?
So, what if it is? I'm unbreakable, dude.
Dude, I'm not unbreakable.
You'll be OK. Here. Faster! orbing! Faster!
All right.
Oh, Phoebe.
Wait. Where's Jeric?
Piper... Paige...
She recognizes us.
That's something, at least.
Um, I don't know.
Let's just orb her home and we'll fix her there.
I told you they'd come for her, didn't I?
( exhales deeply )
Very nice.
Aah! Ouch!
Hey!
Don't fight it, my love. Your new body awaits.
COLE: Hey...
I told you, that's my witch.
( ragged breathing )
Get to work.
( chanting spell )
Excuse me.
( chanting spell )
( sighs )
Welcome back, my love.
Leo? Leo, come on, I need you!
( clears throat )
( gasps )
Ohh!
( in Leo's voice ) What did you do that for?
Leo? Is that you?
Uh...
Oh, sorry, I, uh, forgot.
You forgot? What are you doing?
And what are you wearing?
This? They gave it to me in jail when they arrested me.
Well, not me, obviously. Jeric, or so they think.
I just figured it would help Darryl get a promotion.
I can't handle this right now.
What? I told you
I was gonna have to break a few rules.
No, no, no, You don't understand.
This is the least of our problems, Which ought to give you
an idea how bad our problems actually are.
Come on, it can't be that bad.
Unless I'm mistaken, Cole has teamed up with Jeric,
and tricked me into getting Paige possessed
and Phoebe mummified.
What?
I've had it with this outfit!
LEO: What are you gonna do?
What does it look like I'm gonna do?
I meant about Paige and Phoebe.
Well, you're gonna orb me back there
so I can kick some demon ass,
and, honey, you know, you can change to.
Felon orange isn't exactly your color.
I should've never gone to Cole in the first place.
I don't know what I was thinking.
You were thinking about saving Phoebe.
PIPER: Yeah, that worked out really well, didn't it?
The one thing I don't understand
is why Cole sent me back here.
I mean, he could've sent me to the far reaches of the universe or worse,
but he didn't.
Cole sent you back? From where?
The only thing I can think of is that
he needs me for something, but what?
Well, whatever it is,
going back there, wherever "there" is,
would be exactly what he wants you to do.
Yeah, OK, but I'm not gonna leave my sisters in Egypt
with two demonic perverts. I'm the reason they're in this mess.
I lost Paige because I was trying to save Phoebe.
Well, Cole would never hurt Phoebe. You know that.
And he must need Paige for a reason.
Otherwise, why go through the trouble to get her?
So what am I supposed to do?
You're gonna do what you do best.
You're gonna go on the offensive,
and you're gonna summon Cole
before he summons you.
( sighs )
PAIGE: Ohh, right there.
That's perfect.
Yes, you're rather tense.
It's not me. It's this witch.
She's overworked this body,
and she doesn't deserve it.
Well, you'll have to finish the power of three spell
if you expect to take it from her.
I will... in a bit.
You can't put it off any longer.
This witch is as powerful as the last,
and she'll burn out just as quickly.
Just a minute more.
Sorry. I think you've relaxed enough.
I don't.
But then again,
I always have been such a bad girl.
Well, you can be bad later.
Playtime's over, boys and girls.
Do you mind?
No, I don't.
Well, I do.
Did I ever tell you, Jeric,
that I have eyes only for one witch?
How's the spell going? I was just about to finish it.
She can't expel the witch's soul without the power of three.
How are you gonna get it for us?
Look around. we're only one sister short.
Yes. but your love is a mummy.
Yeah.
You can't expect her to read a spell.
Well, she doesn't have to.
If her spirit is trapped inside,
all her sisters have to do is touch her
to tap into the power.
And what about the third witch?
I doubt she'll read the spell willingly.
Leave it to me. I can be quite persuasive.
Heh. Yes, well, you better be,
because Isis is the only one
that can bring Phoebe back.
And if my love doesn't get what she wants,
yours will stay wrapped up forever.
It's done. The rhyme's a tad childish,
but it should work.
Well, good. All we need now is...
The witch must've taken him.
Oh, he'll be back.
The important this is...
we're alone.
Isis.
Well, I guess I should've seen this coming.
I want my sisters back now, Cole.
Or what?
You got nothing, Piper.
You can't even vanquish me.
Doesn't mean I won't try.
OK.
If that's the way you want to play it.
Ahh! Impressive.
Wait.
( grunting )
Isis...
should we be doing this?
It's my body now.
No, I mean, how are you feeling?
I love that you care.
Oh, no.
Isis. Isis.
Not yet.
No.
( yells )
Hey! What are you guys doing?
You're both invincible. This is just pointless.
( Cole coughs )
Man's got a point, Piper. The sooner we stop this,
the sooner you can save one of your sisters.
What do you mean one?
I mean that you're gonna have to choose between them,
and if you don't, they'll both die.
Why? You gonna kill them?
No, I'm not gonna do anything.
The cards have already been dealt.
I'm just giving you guys your options.
You're delusional if you think
I'm gonna choose between my sisters.
Am I?
Isis is the only one who knows how to revive Phoebe,
and she's not gonna do that
unless you cast a spell to eject Paige's spirit
from her body.
I won't do that. Paige would die.
Fine.
Then eject Isis's spirit instead.
But, of course, you'd be saving Paige and killing Phoebe,
because without Isis,
there's no way to revive her.
LEO: What about Jeric?
He mummifies. Can't he demummify?
He traps spirits. He doesn't bring bodies back to life.
That's Isis's job.
So, of course, as you can see,
you...
have to make a choice.
You sick bastard.
I can't choose, and I won't.
Well, then-then they'll both die.
LEO: Come on.
You're not gonna kill Phoebe.
Well, that is why I am banking
on your lovely wife choosing to save her.
( laughing )
I mean, come on. After all, she's, like, your what,
half sister? You didn't grow up with her or anything.
You've only known her for, like, a year and a half, right?
So, compared to Phoebe, she's, like, a stranger.
Heh.
She's still my sister,
and I will find another way.
There is no other way.
And if you waste time looking for one,
they'll both die.
How can you be so evil?
It's a gift.
Get out. Get out now.
OK, OK, OK...
But when you've made a decision,
you call me, OK?
Paige, Phoebe. Phoebe, Paige.
( stammering )
Call me.
( laughs )
( sighs )
There's nothing in the book that'll help, or from the Elders.
I can't do this, Leo.
You can't let them both die, either.
I know that.
How can I be so powerful and so helpless at the same time?
Piper, your strength...
isn't in your invincibility.
It's within you.
And believe it or not, you are strong enough to do this.
To do what...
Kill one of my sisters?
Or not.
Maybe there's another way. I don't know what it is,
but whatever it is, the solution Is within you.
Look...
I know this isn't fair.
But like it or not, this is the way that it is.
And look, you are gonna have to call Cole back soon...
if you hope to save even one of your sisters.
How am I supposed to decide?
Listen to your heart, honey.
What is it telling you?
It's telling me that I have to choose.
( sighs deeply )
He'll be back with the witch soon.
What if he's late?
He won't be.
You're welcome.
Apparently, she has made up her mind,
so, drum roll, please!
Let's just get this over with.
Who are you gonna save?
Phoebe.
Oh! heh!
The suspense was killing me.
You do realize once this is over,
I will find a way to vanquish you.
You do realize when this is over I might vanquish you.
Enough!
Isis is running out of time.
The spell.
I've got one of my own. Thanks.
Ahh... got something up your sleeve, do you, Piper?
I wish.
Paige, I know you can hear me,
and I know you understand,
but I can't lose Phoebe.
Just do it.
Two warring souls now burn inside
where only one can reside.
I call upon the power of three
to save her body and set Paige free.
( gasps )
Isis?
Did it work?
Yes, it did.
And I know just how to celebrate.
( grunting )
Ooh!
( chanting spell )
( gasps )
Isis?
You really can't mess with sisters.
( grunts)
Well, at least they're together now.
( Cole applauds )
Bravo! Bravo!
Congratulations. Well done.
You know... I gotta admit
I thought I had you there for a moment,
but you never really did choose, did you?
PIPER: I didn't have to.
I figured if Isis knew the spell to free Phoebe,
then Paige would know it as well.
Hmm, well, next time.
Next time?
What happened to you, Cole?
Me?
Well... I've gone mad.
( scoffs )
PIPER: No offense,
but we really need to find a way to kill him.
I'd say that's an understatement.
I wish it was that easy.
( Egyptian music )
( gasps ) Aah!
What?
Oh, my God, you two could scare the hair off a cat.
No demon dare drop by here.
We're just playing hooky.
Uh-huh.
Well, Paige, you can't play hooky
'cause see, you're unemployed.
I resent that.
I consider my witchly duties

We're having a day of beauty.
I'm showing Paige how to pamper herself.
You're beauteous.

She's my niece, too.
Hi, niece! It's your favorite aunt, Phoebe!
