As her breathing eases, she starts calming down. Yes, she’s shattered. Vera puts her bag on the floor and then walks over to her desk. She turns on the computer and sits in front of her computer.

VERA

(to herself)

C’mon, Vera, just calm down. It’s just a freak.

ON COMPUTER SCREEN - It starts.

Vera puts her password and starts the session.

ON COMPUTER SCREEN - A pop-up appears. It reads:

YOU HAVE A NEW MESSAGE

Vera opens the message and ---

ON COMPUTER SCREEN - An animated image appears. It is the image of the zodiac sign of Pisces.

ON VERA’S FACE - She swallows.

ON COMPUTER SCREEN - The animated image changes to another; It seems to be the same, but with a darker aspect. The fishes take a beastly looking.

How is she?

How are things upstairs?

CHARLOTTE

(sighs)

The babies are finally asleep. All four of them.

ERIC

Four?

Charlotte smiles.

CHARLOTTE

Matt is here too.

ERIC

Matt as in ---

CHARLOTTE

Chris and Bianca’s son.

ERIC

Well, that good.

CHARLOTTE

Yeah. I guess we are close to it, you know. We know know who did this. Now we need to find Jared and vanquish him.

ERIC

Yeah, I still can't believe it is him. He always seemed nice. Polite.

CHARLOTTE

Yeah, but also distant. We just have to find him.

ERIC

You will.

Eric lifts Charlotte’s chin and plants a kiss on her lips.

ERIC (CONT’D)

I love you.

Charlotte smiles. They kiss again.

ON THE NAKED WOMAN - She starts convulsing.

OFF TO MELINDA AND DAMON - They walk in.

MELINDA

What’s going on?

ERIC

I don’t know.

DAMON

There’s the beast.

The woman keeps shifting.

MELINDA

Take a picture of her.

We must do something.

CHARLOTTE

But what can we do?

She hasn’t stop shifting.

What’s going on?

Slowly, Eric approaches the woman and takes her vitals.

Eric’s expression saddens.

MELINDA

What?

Eric doesn’t answer.

MELINDA (CONT’D)

(desperate)

What, Eric?

Eric glances at them.

What a night!

DAMON

Well, it's good that Uncle Henry is captain of the S.F.P.D. and he came with a good explanation.

CHARLOTTE

Yes, until someone decides to get deeper into it.

Junior and Eric walk in.

JUNIOR

They will not. Damon and I have said what we knew. We found her and brought her here.

ERIC

And I took care of her.

JUNIOR

No one will bother us.

TAMORA

But she’ll be autopsied, right?

JUNIOR

She will.

CHARLOTTE

Well, we should better focus on finding Jared now.

TAMORA

Yeah, well, I need to stop by the Museum first. We don’t know anything about him anyway, so ---

MELINDA

Yeah, do that. We’ll be here.

TAMORA

See you guys later. Call me if anything comes up.

They nod. Tamora ORBS out. They all stare at each other.

CUT TO:

INT. HALLIWELL MANOR - WYATT & PRUE’S BEDROOM - DAY

Prue is changing baby Tina. The baby smiles happily. Prue smiles at her. Jo stands next to her.

PRUE

She’s so big.

Jo smiles. She then goes to sit on the bed next to them. Her expression changes.

JO

I can’t believe I was out for months.

Prue finishes buttoning Tina’s dress and stares at Jo.

PRUE

It’s my fault. If I ---

JO

(cuts her off)

Mom!

They stare at each other.

JO (CONT’D)

I know it wasn’t your fault.

PRUE

I know, but I was so ---

JO

It was Jared. All that happened. It was his doing.

Prue takes baby Tina and hands her to Jo.

PRUE

Would you?

Jo grabs Tina.

PRUE (CONT’D)

Two to go.

Prue stands and walks over to the cribs. She takes baby Peri and puts her on the bed. Then she does the same to baby Patience.

PRUE (CONT’D)

How am I going to be a mother of three babies at the same time?

JO

You’re gonna have to ask that to the twins, ‘cause you know I don’t have memories of that future. Mine was darker and you never really took care of me.

PRUE

Well, that’s gonna change.

SOUND - A knock on the door.

OFF TO THE DOOR - Matt stands there smiling at them. Prue smiles as she sees him.

PRUE (CONT’D)

Matt!

Matt walks in. Prue stands and both walk over to each other. Matt hugs Prue.

MATT

Auntie.

PRUE

My sweet boy.

They break the hug.

MATT

Aunt Prue, I’m not a boy.

Prue smiles at him.

PRUE

Good to know, because I need a man.

MATT

What for?

Prue looks at Jo and then at Matt again.

PRUE

The witch here needs to work and so, the two of you are responsible for my three daughters.

MATT /JO

What?

Matt and Jo are astonished.

PRUE

Great. Say my name if you need me.

Prue walks out of the bedroom. Matt and Jo stare at each other.

MATT

Did she really trust us to babysit her daughters?

JO

I guess so. Change the twins.

MATT

Me?

Jo shrugs. Matt grimaces. He then walks over to the bed and stares at the babies.

CUT TO:

INT. HALLIWELL MANOR - ATTIC - DAY

Wyatt, Peri, Patience, Chris, and Michaela are there. Michaela is leaning back at one of the couches. She’s still wearing the same clothes as the night before.

CHRIS

So, what else do you remember?

MICHAELA

I told you what I saw. He was kinda running away from something or someone and then he met this woman. A Seer, I guess.

CHRIS

Have you seen her before?

MICHAELA

I don’t think so.

Michaela seems tired.

MICHAELA (CONT’D)

Look, guys, I’m tired.

PRUE

(coming in)

Yeah, me too.

Michaela stares at Prue. Prue smiles big at her.

PRUE (CONT’D)

(to Michaela)

Do you want to take care of three babies for me? Believe me, it’s not easy.

Michaela stands.

MICHAELA

Prue, I ---

PRUE

(cuts her off)

And it gets worse when people hide important information from you.

Michaela lowers her gaze.

MICHAELA

I said I’m sorry.

PRUE

It’s not enough. Had I know sooner, that bitch would never dare to do what she did to me.

MICHAELA

I didn’t know who he was.

PRUE

You met him at P3.

Prue moves towards Michaela.

WYATT

Honey?

Prue doesn’t turn to Wyatt.

PRUE

You should have come to me.

MICHAELA

I didn’t know who he was. I only remembered those Hazel Eyes.

PRUE

(mad)

I have visions. I could have seen it.

MICHAELA

Prue ---

Michaela and Prue stare at each other. Michaela sighs.

MICHAELA (CONT'D)

I know. I’m sorry.

Prue takes a deep breath. Then she turns to the others.

PRUE

Do we know where he might be?

WYATT

No.

PERI

I’ve tried to remember something from my fake memories, but nothing comes up.

PRUE

Right, because he was your uncle.

PERI

He trained me.

(pauses)

He was cool. But I always thought he was a witch just like mo ---

Peri cuts herself off. Everybody looks at Peri.

PERI (CONT’D)

Jessica.

WYATT

Why would he train you?

PERI

(to Wyatt)

Well, because you let him do that. From what I remember, a demon killed Prue ---

Prue shoots her a look.

PERI (CONT’D)

--- I mean mom, the day Patience and I were born.

PATIENCE

Yes. That’s why I grew up without you.

Prue looks at the side.

PATIENCE (CONT’D)

I mean, in my fake memories.

CHRIS

(to Peri)

Continue.

PERI

Jared found the demon and killed him.

WYATT

He was clearly trying to protect his sister.

PERI

Probably. So, he was welcomed into the family and you let him train me.

WYATT

Right.

PERI

But he always did it in here or in his apartment.

CHRIS

Well, he’s not there. We’ve checked.

PRUE

Right.

(turns to Michaela)

Open your mind to me.

Prue reaches out her hand to Michaela. Michaela steps back.

PRUE (CONT’D)

You owe me.

MICHAELA

You are going to enter my mind?

PRUE

I need to see what you saw.

WYATT

Please, Michaela.

Michaela stares at them. Then Michaela looks seriously at Prue.

MICHAELA

Fine.

Prue reaches out both her hands and touches Michaela’s head. As she does ---

Prue is taken into Michaela’s premonition dream.

FLASHES TO:

INT. UNDERWORLD - CORRIDORS - UNKNOWN TIME OF DAY (PREMONITION)

Michaela is following a male figure who runs fast. Prue walks behind her. The person wears all in black. His hair is long and black. Michaela runs after him and so does Prue.

PRUE

Is that Jared?

MICHAELA

Yes, it is.

The male figure suddenly stops. Michaela and Prue stop. The male figure starts turning around slowly.

Michaela and Prue stare at a younger Jared.

YOUNGER JARED

She can’t find me. She can’t.

MICHAELA

He can’t see us. He’s looking at her.

Prue and Michaela step aside as Alexia walks over to Jared.

ALEXIA

I can offer you a way out.

Younger Jared stares seriously at Alexia.

PRUE

The Seer.

Michaela nods.

ALEXIA

A hiding place.

YOUNGER JARED

Where?

ALEXIA

Away from here.

Prue and Michaela stares from one to another.

Then the PREMONITION ends.

FLASHES BACK TO:

INT. HALLIWELL MANOR - ATTIC - DAY

Prue lets go of Michaela. They stare at each other.

PRUE

He was running from something.

Michaela nods.

MICHAELA

Or someone.

Prue turns to the others.

PRUE

Something tells me that whatever he’s running from is the answer for us to change this.

WYATT

But what is it?

PRUE

I don’t know.

CHRIS

Well, we must find him. That’s the best thing to do.

MICHAELA

Also, I almost forgot.

They turn to Michaela.

MICHAELA (CONT’D)

There was someone else there in my vision.

PRUE

I didn’t see anyone else.

MICHAELA

I think it wasn’t part of the vision. It invaded my vision.

WYATT

It?

Michaela glances at them.

MICHAELA

It was a face. A green hovering face.

WYATT

A green hovering head?

Michaela nods. Wyatt and Chris glance at each other. Peri and Patience stare at Michaela. Michaela and Prue stare at each other.

CUT TO:

INT. UNDERWORLD - JARED’S CAVE - DAY

Jared paces the cave back and forth. He is worried. Desperate.

OFF TO JESSICA - She SHIMMERS in.

Jared stops and stares at her.

JARED

It was about time.

JESSICA

I had to get off the radar.

JARED

Guess who else had to?

Jessica stares seriously at him.

JESSICA

I haven’t given up, Jared. I will get that child.

JARED

You better. Because that’s the only way I have to change things back to what pleases me.

JESSICA

This time make sure she’s dead.

Jared and Jessica stare at each other.

OFF TO THE ENTRANCE - Alexia walks in.

ALEXIA

Maybe I can help.

Jared and Jessica turn to Alexia. The siblings stare seriously at Alexia.

ALEXIA (CONT’D)

After all, Armand is gone. I need to support the next leader of the Underworld.

JARED

You.

Alexia smirks at Jared.

CUT TO:

EXT. SAN FRANCISCO - DAY

OFF TO THE DOUBLE DOORS - They open. Pandora and Cassandra walk in. Pandora brings a cup of coffee.

PANDORA

Hey, you!

Ella stares at them.

ELLA

Please tell me that coffee is for me.

Pandora lands the cup on the table.

PANDORA

Fresh coffee.

ELLA

Thank you.

Ella takes the cup and has a sip of the coffee.

CASSANDRA

So, have you found anything about the beast?

ELLA

No. It’s not easy. I’ve looked everywhere. But I won’t give up.

CASSANDRA

Yeah, but you need to rest.

ELLA

I’ll rest when we are back to normal.

CASSANDRA

Whatever that is.

Ella has another sip of her coffee. Cassandra and Pandora stare at each other.

PANDORA

So, huh ---

Ella glances at them. She notices that they are trying to tell her something.

ELLA

What is it?

Pandora sighs.

PANDORA

Chris’ son is back.

CASSANDRA

Matt.

PANDORA

Both versions of him.

Ella’s eyes widen.

ELLA

What?

PANDORA

Apparently, Darkness was kind.

CASSANDRA

For once.

PANDORA

He let out both Babies Tina and Matt and Jo and well, big Matt.

ELLA

Oh.

CASSANDRA

Yeah.

ELLA

So, he was real? He has a son.

PANDORA

He does. They do.

Ella nods. She glances at the side.

ELLA

So, I think I ---

(stands)

--- need a break.

(stares at them)

I’ll continue later.

PANDORA

Don’t worry. We’ll take it from here.

Ella nods and she walks out of the library. Pandora and Cassandra stare at each other.

PANDORA

We did what we had to, right?

CASSANDRA

She had to know.

PANDORA

Indeed.

Pandora and Cassandra stare at each other.

CUT TO:

INT. DARK TOWER - CELL - DAY

Blanche is there. She’s on the phone. Ruby stands next to her.

BLANCHE

(on the phone)

A green hovering face?

Blanche and Ruby stare at each other. Ruby’s eyes widen. She turns around and starts pacing the place.

WYATT (V.O.)

Yes, a green hovering face. Do you have any idea of what does it means?

BLANCHE

I have no idea. I’m gonna talk to Ruby and I’ll call you back as soon as possible.

WYATT (V.O.)

Of course.

Blanche hangs off the phone. She glances at Ruby.

BLANCHE

A green hovering face?

Ruby turns to Blanche.

BLANCHE (CONT’D)

You know what is it, right?

RUBY

I might have an idea.

BLANCHE

Ruby?

RUBY

This is serious, sis.

BLANCHE

Who is it, Ruby?

RUBY

If it is what I’m thinking, you’re gonna have to let me out.

BLANCHE

(annoyed)

Oh, c’mon, Ruby. That’s not going to work.

RUBY

No, Blanche. Seriously. You’re gonna need every firepower you can get.

BLANCHE

Why?

Ruby takes a deep breath.

RUBY

It happened a long time ago. A few years after I left this tower. I was escaping from Jannes when a green hovering face started chasing me. It was everywhere.

Blanche listens carefully.

RUBY (CONT’D)

One day, it revealed itself to me.

BLANCHE

Who was it?

RUBY

(serious)

An Avatar.

BEAT. Blanche gets even paler.

RUBY (CONT’D)

Yes. Alfa offered me a place among them. Obviously, I refused.

BLANCHE

Obviously.

RUBY

I don’t work with others.

BLANCHE

No, unless you plan to turn them into the Source and his Queen.

RUBY

Yeah, Prue and Wyatt were not partners, but a means to an end.

BLANCHE

Right.

RUBY

Blanche!

Ruby steps towards her.

RUBY (CONT’D)

Reality-warping is one of their powers.

BLANCHE

So, an Avatar could actually have done this.

RUBY

Much likely.

BLANCHE

But Jared ---

RUBY

He might be working with them. Probably, they offered Jared a place among them. We don’t know who this Jared character is after all.

Both sisters stare at each other.

RUBY (CONT’D)

Please, sis. Take me out of here and I can be a better helper.

BLANCHE

Oh, Ruby.

RUBY

The power inhibitor bracelet. You can use it.

BLANCHE

Ruby.

RUBY

Please. I can really help.

BLANCHE

Why?

Ruby sighs.

RUBY

Because I’m mad that this Jared is succeeding where I didn’t.

BLANCHE

Ruby ---

RUBY

I will come back here. I promise.

BLANCHE

How can I trust you?

RUBY

You trusted me a few days ago. Do it now.

Both sisters stare at each other for a few seconds.

BLANCHE

I’m gonna have to talk to them.

Ruby nods.

RUBY

Call them.

BLANCHE

I won’t do it on the phone.

Ruby nods. Then Blanche WHITE SMOKES out. Ruby sighs.

CUT TO BLACK.

FADE IN:

INT. MAGIC SCHOOL - MAIN LIBRARY - DAY

Some students are gathering there. Cassandra walks in. She glances around.

BEHIND HER SHOULDERS - Nate can be seen walking in.

NATE

Looking for me?

Cassandra turns around. She stares at him seriously.

CASSANDRA

Morning.

NATE

Was I so wasted that I passed out?

CASSANDRA

No, I actually gave you something to sleep.

NATE

(nods)

I knew it. So? Why?

CASSANDRA

Because Darkness was on the loose.

NATE

Darkness?

Cassandra forces a smile.

CASSANDRA

Long story.

NATE

Right. Can you give me a ride home so I can change for work?

CASSANDRA

Of course. I need to see Johnathan anyway. He must know what’s going on.

NATE

Another one to lie to?

Cassandra shoots him a look.

CASSANDRA

Those are not lies, Nate. You must see the truth. Whether you want it or not.

NATE

I only want to see my son.

CASSANDRA

He’s in the nursery and he should stay here.

NATE

I don’t want you guys to take him to ---

CASSANDRA

Not until you agree to. Prue has.

NATE

Well, she clearly doesn’t give a damn to our son.

CASSANDRA

Nate ---

NATE

Just take me home.

Cassandra takes a deep breath. Then she nods. She approaches him and touches his shoulder. Then, Cassandra BEAMS out taking Nate.

CUT TO:

INT. HALLIWELL MANOR - ATTIC - DAY

ON PRUE’S FACE - She’s astonished.

PRUE

What?

Blanche is there. Wyatt, Chris, Peri, Patience, and Michaela are there.

PRUE (CONT’D)

Come again.

BLANCHE

She said she can help.

PRUE

Help my ass. She’s trying to escape.

BLANCHE

Well, she requested the power inhibitor bracelet.

PRUE

She must have a plan.

BLANCHE

Yeah. The same we do, Prue.

WYATT

Do it.

Prue turns to Wyatt. They stare at each other.

WYATT (CONT’D)

Sorry, love. You released Darkness without consulting me.

PRUE

Oh, it’s a payback then?

CHRIS

C’mon, guys. Let’s think this through.

WYATT

No. It’s settled. Let Ruby out. The bracelet will stop her from using her powers.

PRUE

I don’t want that woman near my daughters.

BLANCHE

She won’t. But I really think she can help.

MICHAELA

Does she know who that green hovering face might be?

Blanche glances at them.

BLANCHE

She has an idea.

PRUE

Really? So?

BLANCHE

Avatars.

BEAT. Their expressions harden.

CHRIS

That’s not possible. They are not strong enough.

BLANCHE

It’s been almost thirty years since your mothers defeated them.

CHRIS

It has, but ---

BLANCHE

If they are after Jared ---

WYATT

He’s just a demon-warlock as his sister.

BLANCHE

Is he?

They glance at each other.

PERI

He might be more than that.

PATIENCE

An Avatar?

Peri shrugs.

PERI

Why not?

BLANCHE

We don’t know, but ---

(looks at Prue)

Prue?

Prue and Wyatt stare at each other.

PRUE

I don’t want her near ---

BLANCHE

(cuts her off)

Your daughters. Got it.

PRUE

And she must be watched.

WYATT

I’ll make sure of that.

Prue and Wyatt stare at each other.

PRUE

And if she ever tries to get close to what’s mine ---

BLANCHE

You’ll find a way to vanquish her.

Prue turns to Blanche and smiles sarcastically.

PRUE

No. I’ll vanquish you. You are responsible for her.

BLANCHE

Indeed, I am.

PRUE

Good.

BLANCHE

Good.

Prue turns around and walks out of the attic. Blanche sighs.

BLANCHE (CONT’D)

God, post-partum has hit her hard, uh?!

They all shoot Blanche a look.

BLANCHE (CONT’D)

Right. I’m gonna get Blanche here.

Blanche WHITE SMOKES out. Chris turns to Wyatt.

CHRIS

I hope you’re right.

WYATT

Me too.

Wyatt and Chris stare at each other.

CUT TO:

INT. VERA’S FLAT - LIVING ROOM - DAY

The room is dark. All curtains are closed. The light doesn’t come into the room.
Vera is sitting on one of the couches. She’s warped in a blanket. She seems scared. Really scared. She stares at the computer screen on the desk.

ON COMPUTER SCREEN - The scaring image of the fish fades slowly. It appears another image. The image of the zodiac sign Libra appears and disappears right away. It is replaced by a beastly version of it, with a heavy head, four legs, and holding heavy balance scales.

Vera’s eyes widen as she sees the image popping on the computer screen. She is terrified.

MELISSA

Has anyone seen Vera? She’s normally the first to arrive.

Her colleagues shake their heads. Melissa turns to Vera’s desk. She walks over to it and turns the computer screen on.

BEAT. The same image that appeared in Vera’s home laptop is also there.

MELISSA (CONT’D)

What the hell does this mean?!

Melissa turns the computer screen off. She then walks over to Wyatt's office.

CUT TO:

INT. APARTMENT - LIVING ROOM / ENTRANCE - DAY

A little girl (MARTA, 8) is on a corner. She is cowering in fear.

In front of her, a tall beast with a FISH form with two heads stands staring at her.
The little girl screams in fear. The Fish Beast walks over to the girl.

The front door gets knocked down and ---

BEAT. Damon walks in. He glances around and spots the beast approaching the little girl.

DAMON

Marta?

Marta looks at Damon.

DAMON (CONT’D)

Cover your face.

Marta nods. Damon looks at the beast and then, using HYPER SPEED, Damon hits the beast. It falls on the floor. Damon rushes to Marta and grabs her in his arms. He rushes quickly out of there taking the girl.

The beast stands quickly and glances around. Then it suddenly turns into a naked man. Damon walks back in and stares at the man.

DAMON (CONT’D)

Mr. Toledo?

MR. TOLEDO (40s) stares at Damon.

MR. TOLEDO

What’s going on?

And then, Mr. Toledo falls on the floor unconscious. Damon stares astonished at the man.

Mitchell. --- Oh, hi, honey. --- No, wait, what? --- Okay, fine. I just need to finish something here. Text me the address and I’ll meet you there.

Junior hags off the phone. He sighs. Sends something to print. Stands and then takes the papers. He walks out of there.

CUT TO:

INT. HALLIWELL MANOR - CHRIS’ BEDROOM - DAY

Bianca is there changing baby Peri. Jo and Matt are also there. They watch as Bianca does the task naturally. Babies Tina, Matt, and Patience are laying on the bed.

BIANCA

So, this is how you do it.

JO

Did you notice the twins were stinking?

BIANCA

(smiles)

They are babies. They can’t clean themselves.

JO

Right.

MATT

Mom, thank you a lot.

Bianca smiles as she hears him calling her mom.

BIANCA

I still haven’t got used to you calling me mom.

Jo and Matt smile.

OFF TO THE ENTRANCE - Prue walks in.

PRUE

(mad)

That Red Witch!

They all stare at Prue.

BIANCA

Something wrong?

Prue walks over to the babies and grabs baby Patience in her arms.

PRUE

Now, now, Pat.

They all stare at her.

JO

Mom?

Prue stares at them.

PRUE

Ruby. She’s coming here.

JO

(astonished)

What?

MATT

Is that for real?

Prue lays baby Patience on the bed. Then she sits on the bed and puts Tina on her lap.

PRUE

Come to mommy, darling.

JO

Mom?

PRUE

(annoyed)

What?

Jo shoots her a look.

PRUE (CONT’D)

Sorry. I’m nervous.

JO

I can see that.

BIANCA

Why is Ruby coming here?

PRUE

Well, because she believes she knows who this hovering face belongs to.

JO

Hovering face?

PRUE

It told Michaela to warn us.

MATT

And that’s reason enough to release the Red Witch?

PRUE

She will have a power inhibitor bracelet.

JO

Still.

PRUE

(mad)

Well, it was your father’s decision.

OFF TO THE ENTRANCE - Wyatt comes in.

WYATT

Prue?

They all turn to Wyatt.

PRUE

Oh, look, the traitor.

Wyatt rolls his eyes.

WYATT

Honey, come on. You did the same.

PRUE

I was trying to save our daughter.

WYATT

What do you think I’m doing?

Both of them stare at each other.

JO

Dad? Do you think Ruby out and free is a good idea?

WYATT

Avatars might be somehow involved so, ---

MATT

Avatars?

BIANCA

Avatars? Really?

Bianca holds baby Matt on her lap.

BIANCA (CONT’D)

Is it safe for the babies in here?

PRUE

No, it’s not.

Prue smiles at her three daughters. Then Prue turns to Wyatt.

PRUE (CONT’D)

We just got them back, but ---

WYATT

Not yet.

PRUE

Wyatt ---

WYATT

Not yet, Prue.

He walks over to her and his daughters. He takes baby Tina from her and hugs her.

WYATT (CONT’D)

I’ve missed her.

Jo and Matt glance at him. Prue smiles as she looks at him.

PRUE

(to herself)

The best father, indeed, Prue.

Prue smiles. Wyatt looks at her.

WYATT

Trust me, okay?

Prue nods. She stands and rests her head on his shoulder.

PRUE

With my life.

Jo smiles as she stares at them.

CUT TO:

INT. UNDERWORLD - JARED’S CAVE - DAY

Jared and Alexia stare at each other seriously. Jessica glances from one to the other.

JARED

Its’ been years.

ALEXIA

It has indeed.

JESSICA

(to Jared)

Who the hell is this?

JARED

A Seer.

Alexia smirks.

ALEXIA

The Seer that’s gonna get your brother in the lead of this place.

JARED

I don’t want to lead this place.

ALEXIA

You want the whole world.

JARED

I want my own Utopia.

ALEXIA

You shall have it. I’ve seen it. A place for all. Demons, witches, warlocks, ---

(pauses)

--- you name it.

JESSICA

(to Alexia)

You were with Armand.

ALEXIA

Armand is gone ---

(looks at Jessica)

--- after you left him there.

JESSICA

I had to run away.

ALEXIA

It doesn’t matter anymore.

(looks at Jared)

My signs have changed.

JARED

That’s why you’re here.

ALEXIA

It won’t take long for them to find out who’s behind the reality-warping. They’ll get to you in no time. You must move fast.

JARED

What do you suggest?

ALEXIA

You need to re-do things.

JARED

I don’t have enough powers. I used the Avatar’s collective powers to do it the first time. I need extra power.

Alexia smirks.

ALEXIA

A baby. A Twice Blessed heir.

JESSICA

Heiress.

Alexia nods.

JESSICA (CONT’D)

I was thinking of taking one of the babies. The eldest one.

ALEXIA

And how do you plan to do so? Those babies are being overprotected.

JESSICA

Yeah, well, Jared has been scaring Prue.

JARED

Darkness is the thing she fears the most.

Alexia laughs loudly. Jared and Jessica glance at her astonished. Alexia notices they are staring at her.

ALEXIA

Oh, you’re serious.

Alexia starts pacing the place.

ALEXIA (CONT’D)

You see, Prue has embraced her darkness a long time ago.

Jared and Jessica stare at each other.

ALEXIA (CONT’D)

Yes, I’ve seen what happened in this reality and the other.

JARED

What did you mean when you said that Prue has embraced her darkness?

ALEXIA

Exactly that. See, that’s where Ruby failed. If she had succeeded in breaking Prue, her plane wouldn’t have failed.

JARED

She broke Wyatt.

ALEXIA

Which wasn’t enough because she couldn't break Prue.

Jared stares seriously at Alexia.

ALEXIA (CONT’D)

Prue is perfect for Darkness. Her soul is seeking Darkness itself. And she has embranced that, so Darkness doesn't scare her anymore.

JESSICA

How do you know that?

Alexia smiles.

ALEXIA

I’ve seen it. I told you.

JESSICA

So, what do you suggest we do?

ALEXIA

Those girls from the future.

Jared turns to Jessica.

JESSICA

The twins have come from the future.

ALEXIA

They have two sets of memories. In one of them, Jessica is the mother of the eldest. Use it to get one of the babies.

Jared and Jessica stare at each other.

ALEXIA (CONT’D)

The girl is confused after all.

ON JARED - He smirks as something pops into her mind.

Melissa and Junior come upstairs and walk all the way over to Vera’s flat. They check the number of the flat on the door.

MELISSA

This is it.

Melissa glances at Junior.

MELISSA (CONT’D)

Thanks for coming with me, hon. I really believe something is happening with her and well, those images are scary.

JUNIOR

Yeah, no prob. This is near Damon’s apartment and I need to check on the other beast he found.

MELISSA

Weird thing, huh?

Junior nods. Then both of them turn to the door. Melissa knocks on the door. No answer from inside. They glance at each other.

CUT TO:

Vera is still warped in a blanket.

SOUND - A knock on the door.

MELISSA (V.O.)

MELISSA (V.O. / CONT’D)

Vera, please.

SOUND - Phone ringing.

Vera glances at her cell phone which is on the couch near her.

Melissa holds her cell phone. Melissa and Junior glance at each other.

MELISSA

She’s in there.

Melissa knocks on the door again.

MELISSA (CONT’D)

C’mon, Vera. I can hear your phone in there.

Nothing. Melissa turns to Junior.

MELISSA (CONT’D)

Knock the door down.

JUNIOR

(astonished)

What?

MELISSA

She could be laying down unconscious behind that door.

JUNIOR

But Meli ---

They are cut off by the door opening. Both Melissa and Junior glance at the door.
BEAT. Vera is there. She looks a mess.

MELISSA

(surprised)

Vera?

VERA

I need help.

Melissa and Junior glance at each other. Then they look at Vera.

ON VERA’S FACE - She’s terrified.

CUT TO:

INT. VER’S APARTMENT - LIVING ROOM - DAY (TIME-LAPSE)

Vera is sitting on the couch staring seriously at Junior and Melissa. Junior and Melissa seem worried.

MELISSA

Vera, please tell us what’s happening?

Vera thinking for a few seconds, then she decides to open up to them.

VERA (CONT’D)

I’ve been ---

(swallows)

--- haunted.

Melissa and Junior glance at each other.

JUNIOR

What do you mean?

VERA

It started a couple of weeks ago. I started receiving some emails. At first, it was just saying that my zodiac column was inspiring. Then this person started sending images.

MELISSA

With zodiac symbols?

Vera nods.

VERA

How do you know?

Melissa takes a deep breath.

MELISSA

I saw them. First, it was unintentional, then when you didn’t came out this morning, so I got the IT to look into your computer. They found those images. Zodiac symbols.

VERA

They turn into beasts.

MELISSA

Indeed.

JUNIOR

Wait, beasts?

MELISSA

Yeah, I forgot to mention that part.

Junior shoots her a pointed look.

JUNIOR

Forgot?

MELISSA

(forces a smile)

Did it on purpose.

Junior shoots her a look. Melissa shrugs. Both of them turn to Vera.

JUNIOR

So, what kind of beasts are we talking about?

VERA

They are a beastly form of the normal zodiac symbols we know.

JUNIOR

Just that?

Vera’s eyes widen.

VERA

Just that? No. They are scary.

JUNIOR

But it’s just images, right?

Vera feels offended. She stands and rushes to her laptop. She turns it on and turns the computer so they can see it.

VERA

Does this seem like just an image to you, Inspector?

As Junior sees the image on the computer, his eyes widen. He recognizes the image. It looks very much like the naked woman’s beast form. Melissa realizes the look on Junior’s face.

MELISSA

What?

JUNIOR

(to Vera)

When did you receive that image?

VERA

Yesterday.

Junior gets thoughtful.

MELISSA

J?

Junior looks at Vera.

JUNIOR

Do you know who send those messages to you?

Vera nods.

VERA

It’s a woman. She said she loved my column.

JUNIOR

A name?

VERA

(swallows)

Isla Cohen.

Junior takes his cell phone out of his jacket pocket.

JUNIOR

I need you to see if you know this person.

Junior stands and approaches Vera. He shows her something on the phone.

ON JUNIOR’S PHONE SCREEN - It is the photo of the naked woman.

Vera glances astonished at Junior.

VERA

That’s ---

Vera thinks for a while. She stares at the photo again.

VERA (CONT’D)

Ines Souza. An old colleague. We went to college together.

JUNIOR

Ines Souza. That’s her name.

VERA

How ---?

JUNIOR

She’s dead. I just learned her name a couple of hours ago.

MELISSA

What’s going on?

JUNIOR

That, that woman, huh, Isla Cohen. Do you know her?

VERA

I don’t think so.

JUNIOR

And you say those images of beasts are based on the zodiac symbols.

Vera nods.

SOUND - Junior’s cell phone.

Junior picks it up.

JUNIOR (CONT'D)

(on the phone)

Mitchell? --- Oh, hi, Damon. No, I’m in the middle of something, so --- wait, what? --- Are you sure? --- Okay, I’ll be right there.

Junior hangs off the phone.

JUNIOR (CONT’D)

We need to go.

ON RUBY - She glances around and smiles big.

Wyatt, Prue, Chris, and Blanche are staring at Ruby. Ruby stops glancing around and stares at the four of them. She smiles.

RUBY

Thank you for having me here. Even if I have to wear ---

Ruby shows them the bracelet she’s wearing on the left arm. The Power Inhibitor Bracelet.

RUBY (CONT’D)

--- this.

WYATT

Let’s make this clear, Ruby. You’re only here, because we need help to find Jared and Jessica and because you said that Avatars could be involved in this.

RUBY

(smiles)

There’s still so much for us to learn.

CHRIS

If you piss us, Ruby, ---

Ruby looks at Chris.

CHRIS (CONT’D)

--- you’ll get back to that tower in no time.

RUBY

Oh, Chris, right, the brother.

Chris shoots her a pointed look.

BLANCHE

Ruby!

Ruby shrugs. Then she looks at Prue who stares seriously at her.

RUBY

(to Prue)

Aren’t you going to welcome me?

Prue smiles sarcastically and moves towards Ruby.

PRUE

They were too nice.

Ruby’s smile disappears.

PRUE (CONT’D)

You messed with me and my family. Do it again and I will rip the red out of you.

(smirks)

And I’ll make it hurt. Badly.

Ruby swallows.

PRUE (CONT’D)

Good. You know I mean it.

RUBY

Not even my sister was able to destroy me.

PRUE

She’s your sister. I’m not. And I know people.

Prue gives her back on Ruby.

PRUE (CONT’D)

I don’t want you in the same room as my daughters and you’ll be always watched.

Prue walks out of the room. Wyatt stares one last time at Ruby before leaving. Chris and Blanche glance at each other. Then Blanche stares at Ruby.

BLANCHE

I’ll stay here for a while.

Chris nods. He walks out. Blanche and Ruby stare at each other.

RUBY

What can I do?

(shrugs)

She loves to hate me.

Ruby and Blanche stare at each other.

CUT TO:

INT. HALLIWELL MANOR - WYATT & PRUE’S BEDROOM - DAY

Jo, Peri, Patience, and Matt are there. Babies Peri and Patience are on the cribs while Tina and baby Matt are on the beds. Patience and Matt are with the babies.

PERI

It is still confusing, you know? All those memories.

Peri and Jo stand next to the others.

PERI (CONT’D)

I thought our memories would go back to normal, but ---

JO

It won’t. Just happened the same to me.

MATT

And to me. I went back to my time, but before I could settle in, I was dragged into the Plane of Nothingness.

PATIENCE

How was it there?

MATT

All darkness.

PERI

(to Jo)

Have you talked to Prue about it?

JO

Mom. And no, I haven’t. She just asked me for the short version, but she doesn’t want me to tell her how was it.

PATIENCE

She feels bad because she believes she’s responsible that you spend so much time there.

PERI

Well, it’s not.

PATIENCE

Hey, I’ve been thinking. I think I know why we have two sets of memories.

JO

Why?

PATIENCE

Because mom got her memory back while she was pregnant with us. That’s why we have the memories of the reality we grew up in and the other one.

MATT

Makes sense.

JO

Yeah. Does she know?

Patience shakes her head.

PATIENCE

I haven’t told her.

Patience stands.

PATIENCE (CONT’D)

But I will.

JO

Come, I’ll go with you.

Patience nods. Both girls walk out of the room. Matt stands.

MATT

I should go to check on mom.

PERI

And leave me here with those four brats.

MATT

One of them is you.

Matt walks out of the bedroom. Peri glances around. She sighs.

CUT TO:

INT. HALLIWELL MANOR - 1ST FLOOR HALL / CORRIDOR - DAY

Prue comes. She is not happy. Wyatt and Chris come following.

PRUE

I never agreed in being nice to her.

Jo and Patience approach.

JO

Hey, what’s going on?

PRUE

Ruby is down there. I don’t want any of you near her, are we clear?

JO

Mom, we are grown-up.

PRUE

Still.

WYATT

Prue, c’mon.

Matt approaches them as well.

MATT

Where’s mom?

CHRIS

She is getting ready to meet Eric. Both are going to talk with Julia about baby Andy.

MATT

I should better go with her.

SOUND - The magical alarm.

The babies.

Prue rushes quickly towards her bedroom. The others follow.

INT. HALLIWELL MANOR - WYATT & PRUE’S BEDROOM - DAY

ON JESSICA - She stands there next to the twins’ cribs.

Peri stands still staring at Jessica. Both of them look seriously at each other.

Prue rushes in followed by Wyatt. Both of them stop as they see Jessica there.

IT ALL HAPPENS QUICKLY. Jo, Patience, Chris, and Matt walk in.

Jessica smirks. She lowers down to Peri and touches the baby’s head.

PRUE

Stay away from my daughter.

Wyatt is about to use his powers on Jessica, but she holds out her arms.

JESSICA

Careful. We don’t want anything bad happening to them.

(smiles)

She’s mine.

PRUE

You wish!

Prue WAVES her hands and THROWS Jessica against the chest of drawers. Jessica hits it hard. She falls on the floor. Jessica stares at them and then she SHIMMERS out before being hit again with more powers.

PRUE (CONT’D)

Damn!

PATIENCE

Language, mom.

Prue and Wyatt stare at each other. Wyatt pulls Prue close and hugs her. Prue buries her face in Wyatt’s chest. Jo and Patience walk over to the cribs and check on the twins while Matt and Chris go to the bed and check on Tina and baby Matt.

CHRIS

It’s okay. They are okay.

Bianca and Blanche are by the doorway to the conservatory room.

BIANCA

I think I’m gonna go check on them.

Blanche nods. When she’s about to walk upstairs, Jo and Matt come downstairs.

BIANCA (CONT’D)

What happened?

JO

Jessica. She came. Mom used her powers on her.

BLANCHE

Did she vanquish her?

Jo and Matt shake their heads.

MATT

She was too close to the babies.

Ruby approaches them.

RUBY

(sarcastic)

So much for almighty Prue.

Jo and Ruby stare at each other.

RUBY (CONT’D)

Hi, you!

BLANCHE

Ruby!

BIANCA

(to Jo)

You’re not supposed to be on the same room as her.

JO

I know.

BIANCA

Are the babies, okay?

MATT

The twins didn’t even wake up.

SOUND - DOORBELL.

Jo rushes to the door.

You.

JO

Hi.

BIANCA

(approaching them)

Nate? Come in.

You disappeared.

JO

I’m back now.

Nate glances at them all.

NATE

I just --- I ---

BIANCA

You came to see Prue.

NATE

And my daughters.

She’s upstairs.

Nate nods. Jo and Matt stare at each other.

JUNIOR

Hey! We’re here.

Damon and Melinda turn to them. They notice Vera.

DAMON

We?

MELISSA

This is Vera.

MELINDA

Vera Moon? She writes the Mirror’s Magazine astrology column.

MELISSA

That one.

Vera looks at Mr. Toledo.

VERA

Zachary?

Vera walks over to the couch.

VERA (CONT’D)

(glances at the others)

What happened to him?

JUNIOR

Do you know him?

Vera nods.

DAMON

What is she doing here?

JUNIOR

She knows the naked woman.

MELINDA

Vera, how do you know Mr. Toledo?

VERA

We went to college together.

MELISSA

He too? What? Are you all astrology freaks?

MELINDA

Melissa!

MELISSA

My bad!

VERA

Yes. We are all specialists in Astrological Arts and Sciences. What happened to him?

DAMON

He just fainted.

VERA

Have you called the paramedics?

Damon glances at them.

DAMON

I don’t think medicine would help him.

(whispers to Junior)

Considering what happened to the naked woman, he can die in less than a day.

JUNIOR

Yeah.

(to Damon and Melinda)

I need to talk to the two of you.

VERA

We need to take him to a hospital.

MELISSA

I’ll call Eric.

(to the others)

Go.

Damon, Junior, and Melinda walk out of the apartment. Melissa takes her phone from her purse.

CUT TO:

INT. DAMON’S APARTMENT - LIVING ROOM - DAY (SHORTLY AFTER)

Damon, Melinda, and Junior walk in.

DAMON

What is Vera doing here?

JUNIOR

I had to bring her. She knew Ines and now your neighbor.

MELINDA

Ines?

JUNIOR

The naked woman. And there’s more. Those beasts? Well, she has received emails with images of the beasts.

Damon and Melinda stare at each other.

JUNIOR (CONT’D)

The one I saw looked pretty much like the naked woman before turning into the naked woman.

DAMON

Mr. Toledo looked like a giant fish.

JUNIOR

There might be another one on the loose. She received another image today.

MELINDA

Wait, fish.

Junior and Damon look at Melinda.

MELINDA (CONT’D)

She’s an astrologer and apparently, there was more of them in her class.

JUNIOR

Yeah, what I thought. It is related to her.

DAMON

So, these beasts ---

OFF TO PANDORA - She ORBS in.

PANDORA

Zodiac signs. Well, the beastly version of them.

They all stare at Pandora.

PANDORA (CONT’D)

I showed the drawing to the librarian and he recognized it.

DAMON

So, we just met ---

MELINDA

Pisces.

PANDORA

The naked woman? It was a bull. Taurus.

JUNIOR

The next one is Libra. I recognize it because it’s my sign.

MELINDA

But why are they being turned into beasts?

PANDORA

Someone cast a spell on those people so they could turn into the beastly version of their astrology sign.

MELINDA

How?

PANDORA

It’s some sort of a simple spell. Someone wrote the name on a piece of paper then put the names into a pot and cast the spell while the names burn.

JUNIOR

Isla Cohen.

They all stare at Junior.

JUNIOR (CONT’D)

She’s the one sending those images to Vera.

DAMON

What do we know about her?

JUNIOR

Nothing. Vera doesn’t know who she is. She thought she was a fan.

PANDORA

A hatred better saying. We must find that woman.

JUNIOR

I’m going to the station. Maybe I can find anything about her. If she’s trying to hit Vera with this, Vera might be a victim.

MELINDA

An innocent. But this person is not following an order. I mean, there’s Taurus, Pisces, and Libra. They don’t follow.

JUNIOR

Yeah.

DAMON

The naked woman and Mr. Toledo were part of Vera’s class at college.

PANDORA

The others might be targets too.

Damon nods.

JUNIOR

Okay. Find out who else was part of that class. I’ll try to find Isla.

PANDORA

I’m coming with you, bro.

Junior nods. Then he ORBS out. Pandora ORBS out too. Damon and Melinda stare at each other.

MELINDA

Vacations. I need a vacation once this is over.

DAMON

We don’t get to rest, huh?!

Both of them stare at each other.

CUT TO:

INT. HALLIWELL MANOR - WYATT & PRUE’S BEDROOM - DAY

Tina is crying out loud. Wyatt is holding her and trying to calm her. Prue is by the cribs staring at the twins who seem to be asleep quietly.

PRUE

You hesitated.

WYATT

She was next to our daughters.

PRUE

(mad)

You hesitated.

Prue turns around. Wyatt and Prue stare seriously at each other.

WYATT

I’m sorry if I don’t want our girls to witness a vanquishing.

Prue looks at the side.

PRUE

I just want her vanquished, Wyatt. You saw how she looked at Per.

WYATT

I know. We will.

PRUE

(approaches him)

Then why aren’t we trying to find her?

WYATT

We are doing what we can.

Tina keeps crying. Prue caresses her small hair.

PRUE

Hush, baby.

They look at each other.

PRUE (CONT’D)

Maybe we need to take them out of here.

WYATT

(sighs)

Cupid’s temple this time.

Prue nods.

WYATT (CONT’D)

I’ll talk to Charlie or Cass to take me there.

Prue nods.

OFF TO THE ENTRANCE - Jo and Nate are staring at Wyatt and Prue.

JO

Mom?

Prue and Wyatt stare at them. Prue realizes Nate’s presence.

PRUE

Nate?

Nate stares seriously at them.

WYATT

I’m gonna take Tina out. She’s too shaken.

Prue nods. Wyatt starts walking out to the exit. Nate and Wyatt stare seriously at each other. Nate looks at baby Tina. Then, Nate steps aside and Wyatt walks out of the bedroom. Jo and Prue glance at each other and then Jo turns to leave. Prue sighs.

NATE

That was ---

PRUE

Tina. My daughter.

NATE

So, the baby and the adult Tina are back.

PRUE

She goes by Jo.

NATE

Yeah, Prue ---

PRUE

Sorry.

They stare at each other. Then Nate glances at the cribs.

PRUE (CONT’D)

How are you?

Nate smiles sarcastically.

NATE

A mess.

He keeps staring at the cribs. Then he moves towards them.

NATE (CONT’D)

I came to meet them.

(swallows)

My daughters.

PRUE

Nate ---

NATE

(looks at Prue)

All this time they were my daughters, Prue.

Prue walks towards him.

NATE (CONT’D)

I loved them. I think I still do.

PRUE

I know this is hard for you.

NATE

Hard? No, it’s not hard. It’s horrible.

(looks at the babies)

It was all a lie.

(his eyes get watery)

How do I live with this?

PRUE

Once things get back to normal ---

NATE

(looks at her)

When will that be, Prue?

PRUE

I don’t know. I wish I knew, but I don’t. We are trying.

NATE

While you get your ---

(waves his hand)

--- husband back. Your daughter ---

(pauses)

I lose everything. My wife. My son.

PRUE

None of it belongs to you, Nate. You need to understand that.

NATE

How?

PRUE

Nate ---

NATE

Were we happy, Prue? I mean, if you remember anything of our fake life, did I made you happy?

Prue approaches him and takes his hands between hers.

PRUE

It wasn’t real. But I once was.

A tear runs down Prue’s face.

PRUE (CONT’D)

In another life, we lived a happy and long life together.

Nate smiles.

PRUE (CONT’D)

Isabelle and Matthew Halliwell raised Allen and Janice Halliwell.

NATE

They were ---

PRUE

Us.

(nods)

You raised William’s son as yours and they also had a beautiful daughter together. Janice.

NATE

My ancestor.

Prue nods. Nate smiles.

PRUE

There’s someone out there for you, Nate. Your soulmate.

NATE

I want you to be the mother of my children, Prue, not anyone else.

PRUE

I’m not your first option, Nate. You deserve better.

Nate touches Prue’s cheek softly.

NATE

Fix it, Prue.

Prue smiles. She puts her hand over his. He approaches her and places a sweet kiss on her forehead.

NATE (CONT’D)

I love you.

Prue smiles. He turns around but stops before heading out.

NATE (CONT’D)

By the way, I’m gonna let that woman see my son.

Prue nods.

PRUE

Thank you.

Nate walks out of the bedroom. Prue lowers her glance. Then she stares at the babies.

INT. MAGIC SCHOOL - SECRET LIBRARY - DAY

Ella, Michaela, and Alex are by one of the tables checking on some books.

ELLA

Found the incantation.

She shows the others the book.

ELLA (CONT’D)

It’s in Latin. This person probably didn’t know what this was about.

ALEX

Do you really believe that?

Ella shrugs.

ELLA

Why not?

MICHAELA

Because people are not that innocent.

ELLA

Yes, I know.

MICHAELA

Well, I guess we’re gonna have to wait for more news.

ALEX

But we can work on a reversal spell for that,

ELLA

Great idea. Who wants to try?

Michaela raises up her arms.

MICHAELA

I’m not a witch.

ALEX

And I’m a Whitelighter.

Ella shoots them a pointed look.

ELLA

Yeah, I’m the witch here.

ALEX

So ---?

ELLA

So, I need to get my hands on it. One of you, get in touch with Junior and see if there’s news about the beasts.

ALEX

I can do that.

Alex walks out of there. Michaela and Ella stare at each other.

MICHAELA

Uh, do you need help?

Ella stares seriously at Michaela.

ELLA

You just said you are not a witch.

MICHAELA

I’m not.

ELLA

Then do me a favor.

Michaela nods.

ELLA (CONT’D)

Go and take care of Andy so Charlie can come and help me.

Sure.

Michaela rushes out of there. Ella watches her leave. Ella sighs.

JUNIOR

What is it?

Junior doesn’t take his eyes off the computer.

PANDORA

Ruby is at the manor.

Junior glances at Pandora.

PANDORA (CONT’D)

She’s helping with the search for Jared.

JUNIOR

I still can’t believe that somehow Avatars are related to it.

PANDORA

I’m not surprised.

Junior gets back on the search.

PANDORA (CONT’D)

I just wish we get to vanquish Jared soon and get back to our lives.

JUNIOR

Yeah. Me too.

Junior eyes widen. He gets excited.

JUNIOR (CONT’D)

Found her.

Pandora looks at Junior. He leans over the desk. Junior turns the computer screen to her.

ON COMPUTER SCREEN - It shows the information about Isla Cohen as well as her photo. She’s a woman in her 40’s.

PANDORA

(amazed)

Wait. She’s ---

JUNIOR

Vera’s colleague.

PANDORA

Vera lied?

Junior and Pandora stare at each other.

JUNIOR

That’s what we’ll find out.

They stare at the computer screen again.

CUT TO:

INT. APARTMENT - LIVING ROOM / ENTRANCE - DAY

Vera is sitting next to Mr. Toledo. Melissa, Damon, and Melinda are standing nearby. Vera seems a little astonished.

VERA

So, you believe that whoever is behind this is targeting people related to me?

MELINDA

Well, seems pretty obvious. First Ines and now Zachary.

DAMON

And there might be more.

SOUND - Damon’s phone.

Damon checks his phone. His eyes widen.

DAMON (CONT'D)

Vera, are you sure you don’t know who Isla Cohen is?

Vera shakes her head.

DAMON (CONT’D)

Well, then can you explain how come that she was in the same class as you in college?

Vera is amazed.

VERA

What?

Vera stands.

MELISSA

Wait, you mean, this woman is targeting all people in the class?

VERA

All the classes. We had them all together. There was not an Isla Cohen there. I remember the names of any of them. It was not hard because there were only twelve of us.

MELINDA

Twelve?

Vera nods.

VERA

And each one of us had a different zodiac sign. We thought it was funny. Zachary was a Pisces. Ines was a Taurus. Preston was a Gemini. Mary was a ---

Vera stops as she realizes something.

MELINDA

Was is it?

Vera glances at them.

VERA

A Libra.

Melinda and Damon glance at each other.

DAMON

The next victim.

(to Vera)

Do you know where to find her?

Vera starts thinking.

VERA

I went to her wedding. I think I remember where she lives.

MELINDA

Text us the address. We’re on the move.

DAMON

(to Melissa)

Get all the names.

Melissa nods. Damon and Melinda turn to leave. As they walk out the front door, Eric comes in.

MELINDA

He’s there.

Melinda points to the couch where Mr. Toledo is. Eric glances around. Melinda and Damon leave. Eric walks over to Mr. Toledo.

MELISSA

Thanks, for changing your plans.

ERIC

Yeah, well, my presence wasn’t that necessary. Let’s see if we can keep him alive longer than the naked woman.

Ines. Her name was Ines.

Eric nods. He starts taking his medical instruments from the doctor's bag.

INT. HALLIWELL MANOR - CONSERVATORY ROOM - DAY

Ruby is focused on the books before her. She’s sitting at the table. Blanche is sitting across from her, also focused.

BLANCHE

So, it says that Avatars can only wrap reality using collective power.

RUBY

Yes. Their powers are connected. That’s why it takes them too long to recharge.

BLANCHE

Recharge. A good way to put things.

RUBY

Well, that’s what basically it is.

OFF TO THE ENTRANCE - Patience walks in and stares at Ruby.

Ruby and Blanche stare at Patience. Ruby smiles at Patience.

RUBY (CONT'D)

The younger twin.

PATIENCE

Is it true? Did you manipulate my sister and me?

Ruby laughs.

RUBY

I didn’t need to. You two were evil.

PATIENCE

Well, I want you to know that it won’t happen again.

RUBY

Right.

BLANCHE

Patience, your mom doesn’t want you here.

Patience stares at Blanche. Then Patience turns around and walks out of the room. Ruby turns to Blanche.

Ruby shrugs. They get back to their search.

INT. HALLIWELL MANOR - WYATT & PRUE’S BEDROOM - DAY

Jo and Prue are there sitting on the bed. The twins are on the crib and the babies Tina and Matt are on the bed. Jo and Prue stare at each other, seriously.

JO

Mom, I really need to tell you how was it there.

PRUE

I don’t want to listen to it. You already said what I needed to know. That he is not the one haunting me. I’m sure somehow Jared has been messing with my head. And somehow he was responsible for taking my memories all those months ago.

JO

Yeah. Clearly, he was behind it.

PRUE

And therefore responsible for you --- for me ---

Prue is speechless.

JO

Mom?

Jo holds Prue’s hand.

JO (CONT’D)

It was not your fault.

PRUE

I should have been more careful.

JO

You had no way to stop it. We don’t even know how he managed to make you forget.

PRUE

Still.

JO

You can’t blame yourself this much.

PRUE

You’re my daughter. I must protect you.

JO

Mom? I can protect myself. I’m a Twice Blessed Witch.

PRUE

While I live, you and your sisters are my duty.

Both stare at each other seriously. Jo gives her a sympathetic smile.

OFF TO THE ENTRANCE - Peri walks in.

PERI

So, the babies are being taken to Cupid’s Temple?

Prue and Jo look at Peri.

PRUE

As soon as Wyatt and Cassandra come back.

Peri nods. She walks over to the crib where her baby self lays.

PRUE

Per?

Peri turns to them.

PERI

Why don’t you go to check on that Red Witch, mom? I’ll take care of the babies.

PRUE

Are you sure?

PERI

(nods)

Go the two of you. I’ll be fine.

Jo turns to Prue.

JO

Come, mom. Let’s make sure Ruby is behaving.

PRUE

Oh, I don’t want you near that witch.

JO

I never got lure by her, remember?

Prue nods. Then she sighs.

PRUE

Fine.

Prue and Jo stand.

PRUE (CONT’D)

(to Peri)

Scream if you need us.

Peri nods. Prue and Jo walk out of the room. Peri turns to baby Peri’s crib.

ON BABY PERI - She sleeps peacefully.

BEAT. Right beside Peri, Jared appears in INVINCIBLE ASTRAL MODE.

JARED

(smirks)

Good job, little niece. She doesn’t belong away from her real mother. They’ve been tricking you. All this time.

Peri stares at her baby self sweetly.

JARED (CONT’D)

You can’t be away from your real mother.

(pauses)

Jessica.

Peri sighs.

PERI

What if Jessica is your mother.

Jared smirks as he realizes his plan is working.

I can’t believe I agreed to this.

BIANCA

Nate, it’ll be fine. You’re just going to meet her.

NATE

If I don’t like her ---

BIANCA

Don’t worry.

NATE

I’m not gonna let her see Andy if I don’t feel something good from her.

BIANCA

Nate?

Nate stops and stares at Bianca.

BIANCA (CONT’D)

It’ll be fine.

NATE

You said she’s a witch.

Bianca nods.

NATE (CONT’D)

That’s why he isn’t that powerful, right? Because he’s not really Prue’s son?

Bianca nods.

BIANCA

Prue is a Twice Blessed witch. A Charmed One. Any child that comes from her, will be as powerful.

NATE

From her and Wyatt.

BIANCA

Indeed.

SOUND - DOORBELL.

Bianca and Nate stare at each other.

BIANCA (CONT'D)

I’ll take that.

Bianca walks over to the door and opens it. BEAT. Julia is there.

BIANCA

Hi. Thanks for coming.

JULIA

Pandora texted me. She asked me to come here. Where is she? And what are you doing
here?

BIANCA

Pandora is a friend of mine. She told me she was trying to help you.

Julia nods. Bianca signs her to come in. Julia stares at Nate who stares seriously at her. Bianca closes the door behind her.

JULIA

(confused)

What’s going on?

Bianca signs Julia to sit. Julia does. Bianca signs Nate to do so as well. All three sit down. Julia stares from one to the other. Nate stares seriously at Julia.

JULIA (CONT’D)

Bianca?

BIANCA

It’s about your son.

Julia’s eyes widen.

BIANCA (CONT’D)

The results have come out. Dr. Sullivan was actually supposed to be here, but he had a magical emergency.

JULIA

What were the results?

Bianca stares at Nate who keeps staring seriously at Julia. Then Bianca turns to Julia.

BIANCA

Positive.

Julia stays silent for a few moments. Then a smile starts lightening her face.

JULIA

So, that means ---

BIANCA

That means that you were correct all along. Your son is alive.

JULIA

But how?

BIANCA

Someone messed with our lives and you were caught in the middle.

JULIA

What?

BIANCA

A demon, we believe, changed reality. Your son ended up as the son of Prue and Nate Halliwell.

Julia stares at Nate.

JULIA

Prue Halliwell the Charmed One?

Bianca nods.

JULIA (CONT’D)

(to Nate)

You are ---

NATE

Andy’s father.

Julia and Nate stare at each other.

NATE (CONT’D)

In here, he’s my son. I remember Prue giving birth to him, so ---

JULIA

I see.

Julia is trying to control her emotions.

JULIA (CONT’D)

So, it means, he’s alive?

(stands)

Is he here?

Bianca stands as she sees Julia is about to burst into the condo to look for Andy.

BIANCA

He’s not.

Julia glances at Bianca.

NATE

I wanted to meet you first.

Julia and Nate look at each other.

NATE (CONT’D)

As I said, ---

(stands)

--- he’s my son.

JULIA

The DNA test ---

NATE

I don’t care about the DNA test. Andy is my son. In my memory he’s mine.

BIANCA

Guys?

NATE

No, Bianca, I met her, okay? That’s it. I don’t need this lady to come here with ideas of taking him from me.

JULIA

I’m his mother.

NATE

Andy’s mother is Prue.

BIANCA

Nate?

Nate sighs.

BIANCA (CONT’D)

You’re gonna have to accept this sooner or later. Especially now that we are close to undoing all this mess.

JULIA

Undoing?

BIANCA

Yes. The Destined Ones will find a solution to this.

NATE

Until then ---

Nate and Julia stare at each other.

NATE (CONT’D)

He’s my son.

Julia takes one step towards Nate.

JULIA

Mr. Halliwell, I understand what you’re feeling. But all these months I’ve lived with his cry in my head. Knowing that out there was a child that was needing me.

Nate stares seriously at Julia.

JULIA (CONT’D)

My heart ached. I wasn’t whole because I wasn’t with my child.

(swallows)

I don’t want to take Andy from you. I just want my son back. I’m a mother in pain.

Nate swallows. Julia’s words touched him. Nate lowers his gaze. Then he nods.

JULIA (CONT’D)

I should better get going. But please, think about it. I just want my son.

Nate looks at the side. Julia and Bianca stare at each other. Then Bianca nods. Julia turns around and walks over to the front door. She opens it and leaves. Bianca turns to Nate.

BIANCA

She knows what you feel. I know too. I just got my son back.

Nate looks at Bianca.

BIANCA (CONT’D)

A son that I didn’t know I had. But when I saw him ---

(smiles)

My heart smiled.

NATE

What will I have if I let him go?

A tear drops.

NATE (CONT’D)

What will I have left, Bianca?

BIANCA

Your heart, Nate. Your conscience. Your kindness. Your real life back.

ELLA

Tell me about it. At least you speak several languages.

CHARLOTTE

When it comes to charges, yes.

ALEX

Can’t it be in English?

ELLA

The original spell is in Latin, so if we want it to be perfect we must keep that method.

CHARLOTTE

Okay, so, what about this?

Charlotte finishes writing something on a paper. Ella glances at it and frowns.

ELLA

We should change something.

Ella starts fixing the spell. Both Ella and Charlotte stare at it.

PANDORA (CONT’D)

She has a lot of books here.

(takes a book)

The dark arts.

Pandora flips through its pages.

PANDORA (CONT’D)

Weird.

Junior approaches a closet near the front door.

JUNIOR

The weird thing is that Vera doesn’t remember her.

PANDORA

Yeah.

Junior opens the closet and ---

JUNIOR

Pan?

ON OPEN CLOSET - There are also photos of several photos. Some of them are Mr. Toledo, Ines, and Mary. There’s also a big photo of Vera in the center.

PANDORA

Yeah.

VERA (CONT’D)

You were in my class.

ISLA

I was. An outcast. None of you cared about me.

Isla is mad.

ERIC

That’s your reason?

ISLA

Shut up!

VERA

You were the one who never joined us. You grew apart from us.

ISLA

You took my place at Mirror’s Magazine. That job was supposed to be mine.

VERA

What?

Melissa and Eric slowly approach each other while Isla keeps focused on Vera.

ISLA

I was the best choice and you got there. Of course, you don’t remember. We were sitting right next to each other on the interview.

Vera is confused.

ISLA (CONT’D)

They chose you!

VERA

It’s not my fault. Are you poisoning them all because you hate me?

Isla laughs.

ISLA

Poisoning? I’m doing much more than that.

No bullet. You’ll jump over her and take the gun.

Melinda walks over to Damon. Then she WAVES her hands UNFREEZING everybody.

ISLA

Let me go.

Vera is astonished.

JUNIOR

Isla Cohen. You’re under arrest for attempted murder. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can be used against you in court. You have the right to talk to a lawyer for advice before we ask you any questions. You have the right to have a lawyer with you during questioning. If you cannot afford a lawyer, one will be appointed for you before any questioning if you wish. If you decide to answer questions now without a lawyer present, you have the right to stop answering at any time.

ISLA

This is not the end.

Vera glances at Isla astonished.

JUNIOR

Cast the spell.

I need you to come with me. We need your testimonial.

VERA

But Zachary ---

JUNIOR

He’ll be fine.

Vera nods.

PATIENCE

She was being manipulated. I felt it.

PRUE

I felt it too. It was him. He was here. I know it.

WYATT

He tried to manipulate you too.

ERIC

You’re talking about ---

CASSANDRA

Jared.

JUNIOR

So, what now?

MELINDA

We must go out and look for her.

OFF TO THE ENTRANCE - Ruby and Blanche come in.

RUBY

That’s exactly what you must do.

They all look at Prue.

MELINDA

You’re still here?

Ruby smiles.

PANDORA

Got any suggestions?

Ruby keeps the smile on her face.

RUBY

I do.

They all stare at Ruby.

RUBY (CONT’D)

You two.

Ruby looks at Prue and Wyatt.

RUBY (CONT’D)

You both are good at something.

Prue and Wyatt stand.

RUBY (CONT’D)

You know that, right? You two are perfect when you turn the best version of yourself.

BLANCHE

Ruby!

RUBY

It’s true. C’mon, you must admit it. What’s scarier than the evil versions of Prue and Wyatt?

They all stare at each other.

MELINDA

Are you suggesting that they should become evil?

RUBY

I would love to see that, but no. They don’t need it.

Ruby walks over to Prue and Wyatt. She stares at them as they stare at her.

RUBY (CONT’D)

They can choose to be scary without changing sides.

WYATT

What are you saying, Ruby?

Ruby smirks.

RUBY

Get mad.

WYATT

What?

RUBY

Get mad.

(opens her arms)

Cloud your pain and use it to get mad. You two share a connection with your daughters. They come from you. One of them will inherit the Twice Blessed power. All three of them come from you. Heiress to your powers. You and they share a connection. A strong one. You can find Peri.

PRUE

How do you know?

RUBY

C’mon, Prue. I saw it then. The three of them save you and Wyatt. One of them sacrificed herself.

ON JO - A tear drops.

RUBY (CONT’D)

Use that pain. Use the sorrow. Use it to find her and then use it again to get rid of Jessica.

Prue and Wyatt stare at each other.

RUBY (CONT’D)

Do what you do best.

(smirks)

Get mad.

ON PRUE AND WYATT’S HAND - They hold hands.
