FADE IN:

INT. AVATAR’S PLANE - BLACK AND WHITE ROOM - UNKNOWN TIME OF THE DAY

Four Avatars are around the circular table. Some holographic images can be seen in the center of the table. Omega and Sigma are nearby talking.

SIGMA

So, this is his plan? Create a Utopia of his image.

OMEGA

He cannot.

SIGMA

If he gets hands on one of the twins ---

OMEGA

He cannot.

SIGMA

Are we going to interfere now?

Omega stares at Sigma.

OMEGA

We can’t quite interfere.

SIGMA

You listened to them. They are planning to steal one of the babies.

OMEGA

That won’t be easy. And we must be alert. At any move, we ---

(sighs)

We interfere.

Sigma stares seriously at Omega.

OMEGA (CONT’D)

It doesn’t matter if we drag the attention to us.

(pauses)

He cannot win.

ON OMEGA - He has a serious expression.

EXT. SAN FRANCISCO - SEVERAL DAYS AND NIGHTS

FOOTAGE ALL OVER THE CITY. Some days pass.

ON THE SCREEN. IT READS:

Days later.

CUT TO:

INT. PRUE’S CONDO - ENTRANCE / LIVING ROOM - DAY

Nate walks in. He closes the front door behind him and stops as he sees Prue standing staring at him.

NATE

She’s gone.

Prue nods.

NATE (CONT’D)

It’s time for you and me to have that conversation, huh?

Prue nods. She sits on the couch and signs him to sit beside her. He does. They stare at each other.

NATE (CONT’D)

So, what’s going on?

Prue takes a deep breath.

PRUE

Do you want the truth?

Nate nods.

NATE

Nothing else.

PRUE

(nods)

Then, you shall have it. I won't beat around the bush.

(sighs)

This is not real.

Nate frowns.

PRUE (CONT’D)

This life, our marriage, Andrew.

(shakes her head)

It’s not real. We’ve been caught in a reality-warping curse.

NATE

What?

PRUE

I’m married to Wyatt. We have a daughter named Tina. You know her future self.

(pauses)

Jo. And these two ---

Prue touches her belly.

PRUE (CONT’D)

They are Peri and Patience. And they are Wyatt’s daughters too.

Nate swallows.

PRUE (CONT’D)

We have no idea who did this, but we might be close to finding out. You, Ella ---

(pauses)

Somehow you got caught too. Whoever did this wanted to break Wyatt and me apart and also Chris and Bianca.

Nate glances away. Prue waits for him to say something.

PRUE (CONT’D)

Nate ---

NATE

You’re kidding me, right?

Nate looks at her.

NATE (CONT’D)

You’re telling me that my son is not real.

PRUE

He is real. But he’s not your son.

NATE

No. It cannot be.

Nate stands and paces the room.

NATE (CONT’D)

He is my son.

PRUE

He’s not. And he’s not mine either.

Nate turns to Prue.

NATE

You and Wyatt?

Prue nods.

PRUE

He’s the love of my life.

NATE

You’ve betrayed me with him!

PRUE

No. I am married to him. He is my true love.

NATE

You’re crazy.

Nate can’t believe it.

NATE (CONT’D)

There must be a more reasonable explanation.

PRUE

There is not.

NATE

I can’t accept it.

PRUE

Nate. I have two sets of memories in my head.

Nate stares at her.

PRUE (CONT’D)

Remember all those months ago when I seemed confused?

Nate nods.

PRUE (CONT’D)

I wasn’t. I was taking my daughter back to her time when we were caught up on this mess. In this Inferno. And what’s worse! I’ve lost her because in this reality she doesn’t exist.

NATE

Jo?

Prue nods. Her eyes get wet. She walks towards him.

PRUE

You need to believe me.

NATE

Believe that all I love the most is fake?

Prue feels sad for him.

NATE (CONT’D)

You’re asking me to believe that this marriage is false. That my son is not ---

Nate’s eyes get wet.

NATE (CONT’D)

How do I do that?

PRUE

I know it’s hard but you need to.

A tear runs down Nate’s face.

NATE

So you and I ---

PRUE

Never. We meet a few days before I married Wyatt. I love him, Nate. More than anything. Wyatt and my daughters are everything for me. You ---

NATE

(cuts her off)

Am nothing for you.

PRUE

Nate?

NATE

No. I need to --- I need to ---

Nate walks away from her. He’s about to walk out of the condo.

PRUE

Nate?

Nate turns around.

PRUE (CONT’D)

You can’t speak about this with anyone without Warren Blood. There’s a spell protecting us.

Nate's expression hardens. He turns around and leaves the condo. Prue sighs.

CUT TO:

INT. UNDERWORLD - JARED’S CAVE - DAY

An old woman, THE CRONE, stands there in the middle of the cave. In front of her is Jessica with her big fake belly.

JESSICA

It has to be today.

CRONE

It’s not time yet.

JESSICA

I can’t wait for the babies to decide to be born. It’ll happen today. Be alert. You’ll be taken to the manor when the time comes.

The Crone nods.

JESSICA (CONT’D)

You might leave now.

The Crone nods and uses GLISTENING to disappear.

OFF TO THE ENTRANCE OF THE CAVE - Jared walks in. He smirks.

Jessica glances at his brother.

JESSICA (CONT’D)

Do you know how to keep the others entertained?

Jared smiles.

JARED

I just found where the Queen of Hearts is. They haven’t vanquished her yet.

JESSICA

That will certainly keep them entertained.

JARED

It will. Armand is ready?

JESSICA

He can’t wait for this to be over.

JARED

Great, sis. Let’s get your baby in your arms, then.

Both brother and sister stare at each other. They smile wickedly.

CUT TO BLACK.

The sun shines brightly.

EXT. HALLIWELL MANOR - DAY

STILL.

CUT TO:

INT. HALLIWELL MANOR - CHRIS & ELLA’S BEDROOM - DAY

ON A SUITCASE - Clothes are being put inside the suitcase.

Ella puts clothes inside the suitcase. She keeps adding more and more clothes from a pile of clothes on the bed. She takes her hands to her hips and exhales.

MELINDA (O.S.)

You don’t need to leave.

Ella turns around. Melinda stands at the doorway staring at Ella. Ella forces a smile.

ELLA

This is not my place.

Melinda walks in.

MELINDA

You belong to this family, El.

ELLA

Not like that. But it’s okay, Mel. I’ll be okay. I just want everything to go back to normal whatever that normal is.

MELINDA

Would you go back to New Orleans?

ELLA

Well, I might stay here for a while. Until this mess gets fixed. Aunt Paige offered me a bedroom at Magic School.

MELINDA

Huh, who knows and you become a teacher.

ELLA

I’m an esoteric shop owner. Teaching is not my thing.

Melinda stares seriously at Ella. She takes Ella’s hands between hers.

MELINDA

You can count on us no matter what.

ELLA

I know.

Ella and Melinda hug.

ELLA (CONT’D)

It was good while it lasted.

OFF TO THE ENTRANCE - Jessica stands there.

JESSICA

You’re leaving?

Ella and Melinda break the hug. They look at Jessica.

JESSICA (CONT'D)

Why?

Melinda and Ella glance at each other.

ELLA

Well, I ---

(smiles)

I give up. There’s nothing for me here.

JESSICA

You are Chris’ wife.

ELLA

Not anymore. I’ve decided to step aside.

JESSICA

You can’t.

Jessica seems annoyed at Ella’s decision.

MELINDA

Jessica, don’t make it more difficult.

Jessica is mad.

JESSICA

But you can’t just leave that woman take your husband.

ELLA

Jess!

Jessica stares at Ella.

ELLA (CONT’D)

It’s over.

Jessica realizes there’s nothing she could say to change things. She turns around and leaves the bedroom. Melinda and Ella glance at each other.

ELLA (CONT’D)

Evil witch?

MELINDA

I don’t care what she is. She’s been lying to us all this time.

ELLA

Does Wyatt know already?

MELINDA

Prue is going to have a very difficult day. She is going to talk to Nate and Wyatt today.

Ella grimaces.

ELLA

Wouldn’t like to be in her shoes.

MELINDA

Neither would I.

Both women are serious.

CUT TO:

INT. HALLIWELL MANOR - ENTRANCE / FOYER / STAIRCASE - DAY

Wyatt comes downstairs and heads to the front door. Wyatt opens the door and ---

BEAT. He is hit by a fist in his face. Wyatt falls back. Nate walks into the manor. From the floor, Wyatt looks up at Nate.

WYATT

What the hell?!

NATE

(points his finger to Wyatt)

That’s for taking her from me.

WYATT

I didn’t ---

NATE

(out loud)

You did. No matter what crazy stuff is going on, in here, she’s mine.

Wyatt stands and stares seriously at Nate.

WYATT

She was never yours.

Nate and Wyatt look at each other. Hate is all over their faces.

NATE

In here ---

(points to his own mind)

--- there are memories of us marrying. Of us together in bed. Of us together welcoming a child.

WYATT

Shut up.

NATE

You won’t take those memories out of me. I had her here.

And ---

BEAT. Nate is hit by Wyatt’s fist. Nate is thrown back.

WYATT

That’s not real.

Nate looks at Wyatt.

WYATT (CONT’D)

What you have in your mind ---

(pauses)

Those memories, they aren’t real. If you want to live a fake life, by my guest, but she’s my wife.

Both men stare at each other seriously.

NATE

I love her.

WYATT

I love her too. More than anything. She’s my other half. The mother of my children. My soul.

Nate swallows.

NATE

All this time --- all ---

(swallows)

--- I always found it weird the way you two treated each other, but ---

WYATT

We are true love, Nate.

They look at each other.

NATE

What do I do?

Nate can’t hold his feelings any longer. His eyes get wet.

NATE (CONT’D)

What do I do with all this that I feel inside of me?

WYATT

(steps forward)

We are gonna fix this and you can go back to your normal life.

NATE

What is normal?

Wyatt shakes his head.

WYATT

I don’t know.

They stare at each other. Then Nate walks out of the manor. Wyatt stares as he leaves. Wyatt sighs.

CUT TO:

INT. UNDERWORLD - JARED’S CAVE - DAY

Two demons stand there, heads down. Jared walks around them.

JARED

The job is simple. Attack them and make sure they learn that is the Queen of Hearts who’s behind this.

DEMON #1

Will that lead them to her, my Lord?

JARED

It will. Leora has great power so they are going to need everyone focused on that.

DEMON #2

And about us, my Lord? Won’t they vanquish us?

JARED

If they do, feel happy because you’ll be serving a bigger purpose.

Both demons stare at each other.

JARED (CONT’D)

You may go now.

The demons bow and SHIMMER out. Jared smirks.

OFF TO THE ENTRANCE - Melinoe comes in.

MELINOE

Everything going as planned, I see.

Jared turns around and looks at her.

JARED

Came to check on me?

MELINOE

You promised to help me if you win this fight.

Jared walks towards her.

JARED

I can do more than help you.

MELINOE

A romantic affair is not what drives me, Jared.

JARED

But it would be so fun.

Melinoe stares seriously at him. Then she smirks.

MELINOE

Indeed, it would.

JARED

We are demons --- I mean, I am a demon.

MELINOE

Avatar.

JARED

Avatar, whatever. And you are a --- what are you exactly?

MELINOE

(shoots him a look)

Your point?

Jared smirks and puts his hand on her waist.

JARED

I mean that it’s not because we are evil beings that are always focused on our master evil plans that we don’t deserve to enjoy the pleasures of life.

Jared touches Melinoe’s face softly.

MELINOE

You’re lucky I have some free time right now.

Jared smirks. Melinoe leans her head back and Jared plants a kiss on her neck. Then, BLUE FLAMES surround them and they disappear.

CUT TO:

INT. PRUE’S CONDO - LIVING ROOM / DINING AND KITCHEN AREA - DAY

Prue walks back and forward. She’s on the phone trying to reach Nate, unsuccessfully. She is nervous.

PRUE

C’mon, Nate. Pick up the phone.

Prue grimaces. It seems that the nervousness is not doing her any good.

OFF TO BIANCA - She is in the kitchen pouring some water into a glass. Then she walks over to Prue.

BIANCA

You need to calm down.

PRUE

I can’t.

Bianca hands Prue the glass of water, but Prue refuses it. Prue grimaces again.

BIANCA

It’s not doing any good to the babies, Prue.

PRUE

I know. But it’s not time yet, so don’t worry.

OFF TO SOMEONE ORBING IN - Chris and Wyatt appear.

CHRIS

Hey.

Bianca looks at them. That’s when Prue feels a strong pain in the low belly.

PRUE

(moans)

Argh!

Wyatt rushes to her.

WYATT

Honey!

Wyatt holds her and helps her to sit on the couch.

WYATT (CONT’D)

What’s going on?

BIANCA

She’s been stressing out over Nate’s reaction.

Prue looks at Wyatt.

PRUE

He knows.

WYATT

I know. He visited me. I’m lucky I heal quickly, otherwise, you’d be seeing a dark circle around my right eye.

PRUE

What?

WYATT

He was shattered.

PRUE

Oh, my God.

WYATT

You need to calm down, okay? For the babies.

PRUE

What if he tells someone?

CHRIS

Let’s trust he won’t.

SOUND - DOORBELL.

Bianca and Chris stare at each other. Then Bianca goes to open the door. When she does ---

BEAT AGAIN. The twins Peri, and Patience are there. They stare at Bianca.

PERI

I told you the Halliwell manor was the best place to start with.

PATIENCE

(to Bianca)

Sorry, who are you?

BIANCA

I’m ---

PRUE

Peri? Patience?

Prue stares astonished at the entrance. Wyatt and Chris look at the twins. Then Wyatt helps Prue to stand. Bianca steps aside to let the twins walk in.

PATIENCE

Mom?

Prue smiles to see her daughters there.

PRUE

My babies.

Patience smiles big and rushes to Prue. She hugs Prue tightly as if she never had hug her before.

PATIENCE

Oh, mom. I’ve missed you so much.

Peri looks at them.

PATIENCE (CONT’D)

(breaking the hug)

I mean, I do, but then I haven’t seen you recently.

Prue and Patience stare at each other. Prue touches Patience’s face.

PRUE

You’re here.

WYATT

But how?

Wyatt looks at Patience and Prue. Patience looks at him. Then Wyatt looks at Peri.

WYATT

Peri?

PERI

Dad? Hi.

Peri seems cold.

PRUE

Per?

Peri looks at Prue.

PRUE (CONT’D)

Come.

Peri keeps staring at Prue.

PATIENCE

Per?

PERI

I don’t know if I want to hug her or not.

WYATT

Why?

PERI

(confused)

Well, because someone has screwed our lives and I don’t know what I feel.

CHRIS

What do you mean?

PERI

I mean that she ---

(points to Prue)

--- she’s not my mother.

Wyatt and Prue stare at each other.

PERI (CONT’D)

Or maybe she is, but I don’t know what’s true.

PATIENCE

What Peri means is that we both have two sets of different memories in our minds and we don’t know which one is real and which isn’t.

Prue and Wyatt stare astonished at their daughters. Chris and Bianca stare at each other.

CUT TO:

INT. MAGIC SCHOOL - MAIN LIBRARY - DAY

Alex comes in followed by Charlotte. Alex carries some books.

ALEX

I believe we can excuse them. Their parents are divorcing. Of course, they don’t have time to focus on school.

CHARLOTTE

No, I think you’re right, Alex.

Alex stops suddenly as something calls for his attention.

OFF TO MICHAELA - She’s in a corner, alone, lost in her own thoughts.

Charlotte sees Michaela too.

CHARLOTTE (CONT’D)

(to Alex)

She’s has been like that for days. Have you found what’s happening?

Alex shakes his head.

ALEX

She’s not opening up to me.

CHARLOTTE

Maybe she feels bad because she hasn’t been able to have any dream vision.

ALEX

Maybe.

Charlotte looks at Alex.

CHARLOTTE

Go and talk to your girlfriend.

Alex turns to Charlotte.

ALEX

She’s not ---

Charlotte shoots him a look.

ALEX (CONT’D)

I haven’t asked out her yet.

CHARLOTTE

You should.

(looks at Michaela)

You are what she needs.

(looks at Alex)

Go.

Alex nods and hands Charlotte the books. She takes them. Alex smiles, turns around, and walks over to Michaela. Charlotte smiles as she watches him walk towards her.
Michaela is sitting in a corner near a window. Her eyes seem lost. Alex approaches her.

ALEX

Mica?

Michaela doesn’t turn to him.

ALEX (CONT’D)

Michaela?

Alex sits in front of her and touches her face softly. Michaela looks at him.

ALEX (CONT’D)

Hey! What’s wrong?

Michaela forces a smile.

MICHAELA

Nothing. I’m just ---

ALEX

(cuts her off)

Don’t say you’re okay. I know you aren’t.

MICHAELA

I’m just thinking.

ALEX

About what? Share your thought with me, Mica.

Michaela lowers her gaze.

ALEX (CONT’D)

I know you are scared. I can tell.

Michaela looks at Alex.

MICHAELA

I am.

ALEX

Look, you are gonna dream and you will find out who’s behind this.

(pauses)

I trust you can do it, okay? You need to believe that.

Michaela forces a smile. Alex has an idea.

ALEX (CONT’D)

I have an idea. Why don’t we go to one of those meditation classes? I never attended to, but ---

MICHAELA

It’ll be great.

Alex smiles.

ALEX

Yeah. It might relax you.

Michaela nods.

MICHAELA

It might.

Alex nods and then he leans over her and kisses her forehead. Then they look into each other’s eyes.

ALEX

You know I like you, don’t you?

Michaela nods.

CHARLOTTE (O.S.)

El?

Alex and Michaela look at Charlotte at the other side of the room. Ella is also there carrying a suitcase. Alex helps Michaela to stand and both walk over to them.

CHARLOTTE (CONT’D)

Are you sure you want to stay here?

ELLA

It’s the best. I can’t keep staying at the manor knowing what I know.

CHARLOTTE

I’m so sorry, El.

ELLA

You, guys, need to stop saying that. I don’t need you to feel sorry for me.

CHARLOTTE

El?

ELLA

No. Stop, please. I’ll come back on top.

Alex and Michaela reach them.

ALEX

Hey, El!

ELLA

(pointed look)

Don’t --- I don’t want sorry looks.

Alex and Michaela glance at each other.

ELLA (CONT’D)

I wish to see my bedroom, please.

Charlotte nods. She signs Ella to follow her. Alex and Michaela watch her leave.

ON MICHAELA - She is serious.

STILL.

CUT TO:

INT. SOUTH BAY SOCIAL SERVICES - MAIN ROOM - DAY

All workers are on their desks. Pandora is at her desk. She’s thoughtfully staring at her computer screen.

OFF TO THE ENTRANCE - Julia Towne walks in and glances around. Once she spots who she wants, Julia walks straight to her.

Pandora stands as she sees Julia approaching.

JULIA

Pandora.

PANDORA

I’m glad you could come, Julia.

Pandora signs her to sit. She does and Pandora sits after her.

JULIA

What news do you have for me?

PANDORA

I’ve got the file.

Julia’s eyes pop open.

PANDORA (CONT’D)

According to the file, the baby was born dead.

Julia lowers her gaze.

PANDORA (CONT’D)

But Julia ---

Julia looks at Pandora.

PANDORA (CONT’D)

I don’t want to give you false hope, but I have reasons to believe that your baby is alive.

Julia’s expression changes. She’s now hopeful.

JULIA

Alive.

PANDORA

Julia, I can’t tell you much, but I need to ask you to provide me a saliva sample.

JULIA

What? For a ---

PANDORA

DNA test, yes.

Julia nods and smiles.

JULIA

Of course. But where is he?

PANDORA

I can’t tell until I’m sure. But believe me, the baby is being taken care of.

JULIA

I want to see him.

PANDORA

Not yet.

JULIA

When?

Pandora takes a deep breath.

PANDORA

When it’s proven he’s your son.

JULIA

Pandora ---

PANDORA

Julia, please.

Pandora holds Julia’s hand over the desk.

PANDORA (CONT’D)

Trust me.

Julia nods.

JULIA

How do we do that?

PANDORA

I’ll give you the name of a person you need to see at the Memorial. He’ll take the sample.

Julia nods. She smiles big. Pandora half-smiles.

CUT TO:

INT. HALLIWELL MANOR - ATTIC - DAY

Melinda walks in followed by Tamora.

TAMORA

She took it pretty well.

MELINDA

Nate didn’t. He came in and hit Wyatt.

Melinda turns to Tamora.

MELINDA (CONT’D)

You had to see Jessica. The way she acted when she learned Ella was moving out.

TAMORA

Well, maybe Ella was part of her plan. Where is she?

MELINDA

I don’t know and I don’t care. I can’t believe she lied to us.

TAMORA

Well, we should pay attention to her moves.

MELINDA

She won’t do anything. She believes we trust her.

TAMORA

True. I wish I knew what her plans are. ‘Cause I mean, what is she going to do when the baby is born?

MELINDA

The nonexistent baby, you mean.

Tamora nods.

MELINDA (CONT’D)

I don’t care and I don’t wish to wait. I’m just waiting for Prue to talk to Wyatt so we can unmask her.

TAMORA

True.

OFF TO THE DEMONS - The demons sent by Jared SHIMMER in.

Melinda sees the demons shimmering in.

MELINDA

Oh, c’mon!

Tamora turns around.

TAMORA

Let’s get this over with!

Tamora WAVES her hands and is about to use her MOLECULAR ACCELERATION power, but ---
The demons hold out her hands.

DEMON #1

You are now prisoners of the Queen of Hearts.

MELINDA

Kidding me. She tried, she failed.

Tamora uses MOLECULAR ACCELERATION on the demons. Their skin starts turning red and soon they burst into flames. Tamora turns to Melinda and as she does, she sees two demons grabbing Melinda.

TAMORA

What?! No!

MELINDA

Tam!

The demons SHIMMER out taking Melinda. Tamora grimaces.

TAMORA

Seriously!

Tamora is annoyed.

STILL.

CUT TO:

INT. PRUE’S CONDO - LIVING ROOM - DAY

Prue is sitting on the couch. Wyatt stands beside her staring at the twins. Chris and Bianca are nearby.

WYATT

You two have two sets of different memories?

Peri and Patience nod.

PERI

In one, we both are sisters.

PATIENCE

Twins.

PERI

And grew up together. But in the other one ---

PATIENCE

We don’t have the same parents.

PRUE

That’s impossible. I know you’re my daughters.

CHRIS

Maybe what happened last year changed it.

PRUE

(mad)

No.

They all look at Prue.

PRUE (CONT’D)

I know it didn’t.

PERI

What happened last year?

CHRIS

Ruby and ---

WYATT

They don’t know.

CHRIS

Right because they never got to met Ruby.

PATIENCE

We don’t know what you’re talking about.

PRUE

Where’s Jo?

Peri and Patience look at Prue.

PATIENCE

In one memory of our memories, she’s never around.

Prue closes her eyes. Sad.

PATIENCE (CONT’D)

In the other one, she is our sister.

PERI

We were together. The three of us. Using the Power of Three.

PATIENCE

Which would be impossible because there’s no Power of Three.

CHRIS

What?

PERI

The new Charmed Ones never activated their powers in our time.

BIANCA

Why?

PERI

It was never needed.

PRUE

If I’m not your mother ---

Prue wants to stand. Wyatt helps her. Prue looks at Peri.

PRUE (CONT’D)

Who is it?

Peri and Patience glance at each other. Then they look at Prue.

PERI

I’m Wyatt and Jessica’s daughter.

ON PRUE - Her expression hardens.

PRUE

That bitch!

PERI

(mad)

Hey! Don’t speak of her like that. She’s my mother.

PRUE

(out loud; mad)

I am your mother, goddammit!

Prue feels pain in her lower belly. She keeps looking at the twins.

PRUE (CONT’D)

There’s no baby inside of her.

Prue looks at Wyatt.

PRUE (CONT’D)

I felt it. The other day, I felt it. I hug her and I felt no life inside of her. Just like I felt Bianca was pregnant.

Wyatt is astonished.

PRUE (CONT’D)

She’s not expecting your child. I am. And that’s not all.

(pauses)

Sebastian saw her back then when you went to Armand’s cave.

WYATT

What?

CHRIS

Prue, are you sure?

PRUE

(mad)

Have I ever been wrong?

CHRIS

That’s a very serious accusation.

PRUE

I know what I am saying and you ---

(to Peri and Patience)

--- are my daughters.

OFF TO SOMEONE ORBING IN - Tamora glances at them.

TAMORA

I’m sorry to ---

Tamora sees the twins.

TAMORA (CONT’D)

The Twins of all Evil.

Peri and Patience’s eyes widen.

TAMORA (CONT’D)

What are they doing here?

PRUE

They came from the future.

TAMORA

That I can see. Well, whatever. We have serious trouble. Melinda.

BIANCA

What happened to Mel?

TAMORA

The Queen of Hearts strikes again!

INT. PRESCOTT GROUP - CASSANDRA’S OFFICE - DAY

Cassandra walks in holding a cup of tea. She rushes to the couch where Nate is sitting. His hands cover his face. He is shattered.

CASSANDRA

Nate, take this.

NATE

I can’t believe this is happening to me.

CASSANDRA

You need to calm down.

Cassandra sits beside him.

CASSANDRA (CONT’D)

You’ll see things through.

NATE

See what through?

Nate stands out of a sudden. The emotions take over him.

NATE (CONT’D)

I don’t want to see things through. I want this nightmare to be over.

Cassandra stands.

NATE (CONT’D)

She’s not my wife? And my son is not my son? Sorry, Cass, but it’s too made up.

CASSANDRA

It’s not made up, Nate, it’s true.

NATE

Maybe you all are confused. This might be the real curse. To make you believe you’re living a fake life.

CASSANDRA

No, it’s not.

NATE

This is the perfect plan. After all, demons want to destroy the Warrens at any cost, right?

CASSANDRA

(raises her voice)

NATE!

Nate glances at her.

CASSANDRA (CONT’D)

I’m sorry, you’re hurting, but the life you know, the life you love, is not real. Accept it.

Nate and Cassandra stare at each other. Nate’s eyes are red.

NATE

I can’t.

A tear runs down his face.

NATE (CONT’D)

I just can’t, Cass.

And he breaks down.

NATE (CONT’D)

I can’t lose any of them.

He lets himself fall on the floor.

NATE (CONT’D)

I can’t. I need them.

CASSANDRA

Oh, Nate!

Cassandra approaches him and lowers down.

NATE

I can’t.

Nate stands quickly and runs out of the office. Cassandra sighs.

CASSANDRA

Crap.

OFF TO CHRIS - He ORBS in.

Cassandra looks at Chris. She stands.

CASSANDRA (CONT’D)

(exhausted)

What is it now?

CHRIS

Mel was taken by the Queen of Hearts.

Cassandra’s eyes widen.

CHRIS

We need the whole gang together to put an end on it.

CASSANDRA

Great. I need to kick some asses.

Chris nods. Then Chris ORBS out and Cassandra BEAMS out right after him.

Junior hangs off the phone almost at the same time as Tamora ORBS in front of him.

JUNIOR (CONT’D)

Let me guess! Demons?

Tamora nods.

CHRIS

Can I ask you the same?

ELLA

My answer is simple. I’m staying here.

CHRIS

El ---

ELLA

Yes, I could’ve stayed at the manor, but I don’t want to. Besides, I want to help you to get us back to our normal lives.

Thank you.

Ella half-smiles.

Ella sees Charlotte coming in.

I just got a text from Cass. Everybody is being summoned at the manor.

CHRIS

Yes, we have a situation.

ELLA

Have you found ---

CHRIS

No. Mel was taken by the Queen of Hearts.

ELLA

What?

Ella and Charlotte get worried.

ELLA (CONT’D)

What are we waiting for? Let’s go.

Chris nods. He holds out his hand for Ella to hold it. Ella looks at his hand, then she looks him in the eyes and nods. Chris ORBS out taking Ella and Charlotte BEAMS out.

Pandora is at her desk. Other workers are busy with their tasks. Pandora is on the phone.

Well, you did well. He’s actually on surgery.

PANDORA

(on the phone; takes a deep breath)

Is he ---

ERIC (V.O.)

I’m not gonna lie to you, Pan. He is still shattered because of this situation.

PANDORA

I wish I could do more to help him.

ERIC (V.O.)

Just give him time or ---

PANDORA

Get us back to what’s real.

PANDORA

Thank you, Eric. Let me know once you get the results.

ERIC (V.O.)

DAMON

I don’t want to calm down. I want to find Melinda.

WYATT

Yes. Just like the rest of us.

BIANCA

We need to remain calm.

OFF TO THE ENTRANCE - Patience helps Prue coming in.

Damon stops and stares at Prue.

DAMON

Are you all right?

Prue glances at Patience who smiles at Prue. Then Prue looks at Damon.

PRUE

One of my daughters believes I’m not her mother, so, no, I’m not all right.

(to Wyatt and Bianca)

Any idea where Melinda might be?

WYATT

We need to check the cave where we found Chris and Ella.

PRUE

They won’t take her there.

WYATT

I know, but we need to try.

Junior, Cassandra, Charlotte, Ella, and Chris walk in.

JUNIOR

Well, here we are.

Yes, mom.

Prue looks at Patience.

JUNIOR

Wait. You are ---

Junior, Cassandra, Charlotte, and Pandora look at Patience.

CHARLOTTE

One of the Twins of All Evil.

PATIENCE

Why are you guys treating us like that?

CASSANDRA

Well, because you were evil when we first met.

PATIENCE

What?

Patience seems astonished at the revelation.

PANDORA

Yeah. Where’s the other?

WYATT

Peri and Patience have come from the future. They both have two sets of memories.

PATIENCE

We wanted to find out what happened and ---

(sighs)

Well, reality-warping was definitely the last thing I could imagine.

TAMORA

Welcome to the family.

PRUE

Anyway, I’m ---

WYATT

(out loud)

I said no, Prue.

Patience steps between Wyatt and Prue.

PATIENCE

(mad)

Uncle Wyatt, you don’t dare to talk to my mother like that.

Wyatt and Patience stare seriously at each other.

PATIENCE (CONT’D)

I’m sorry.

(lowers her gaze)

Dad.

Wyatt sighs. Prue grabs Patience’s hand.

PRUE

(to Wyatt)

I’m staying.

Wyatt swallows.

WYATT

I’m sorry.

Prue nods.

PRUE

Just get Mel back.

Wyatt nods. He turns to the others.

WYATT

I need someone at Magic School. We need to know how to defeat the Queen of Hearts.

ELLA

I can do that.

BIANCA

I can go to the Underworld. I’ve been there, I know ---

CHRIS

No, Bianca, you’re not going.

BIANCA

(shocked)

What?

PRUE

You’re pregnant now, B. We get overprotection.

BIANCA

So, I’m guessing the rest of us are going on a trip to the Underworld.

CASSANDRA

My favorite. Should I take sunscreen?

DAMON

WYATT

Wyatt nods. He WAVES his hand and ORBS Ella and Bianca out. Then he turns to Prue and Patience.

WYATT

(to Prue)

If what you said about Jessica is true ---

PRUE

It is.

WYATT

We’re gonna have to get to the bottom of it.

PRUE

Find Mel and we will.

WYATT

Be careful.

Wyatt walks towards Prue and takes her face between his hands. He leans his forehead on hers.

WYATT (CONT’D)

I love you.

Patience looks at the side.

WYATT (CONT’D)

Just be careful.

Prue nods.

PRUE

Come back safe.

Wyatt nods. He then turns to Patience.

WYATT

You and your sister ---

PATIENCE

Perfect. Make sure they find not only the witch but also the Queen of Hearts. Keep me posted. --- Yes.

Jared glances at Melinoe.

JARED (CONT’D)

(on the phone)

I’m taking care of some important matters.

Jared hangs off the phone. He stares at Melinoe who stares back at him.

MELINOE

Is everything ready?

JARED

Soon, the Warrens will be down there while my sister gives birth.

Melinoe laughs.

MELINOE

Poor witch. She won’t see that coming.

JARED

Jessica has been placing amulets all over the house. Once she places the last one, the protection against witches' powers will be activated.

MELINOE

It amazes me how meticulous you are.

JARED

I’m focused on an heir with Warrens’ powers.

Jared gets into the bed beside Melinoe.

MELINOE

That heir won’t have your blood.

JARED

But I can shape her.

MELINOE

A girl?

Jared nods. Melinoe gets thoughtful. Jared notices it.

JARED

What’s on your mind?

MELINOE

(smiles)

Oh, nothing important. Just that, Warrens' powers are so special, right? They don’t know how lucky they are.

JARED

They would never help you get the One Underworld back from your father.

MELINOE

No, they wouldn’t.

Melinoe glances at Jared.

MELINOE (CONT’D)

JESSICA (CONT’D)

So nice to see you. Came to visit?

Prue glances at Jessica and smiles. She puts her best-acting face.

PRUE

Jess! Nice to see you. Mel. Mel has been taken.

JESSICA

(pretends to be worried)

What? How?

PRUE

It looks like the Queen of Hearts is behind this.

JESSICA

Crap, those factions won’t stop until they get what they want.

PRUE

No, they won’t.

Jessica glances from Peri to Patience.

JESSICA

Who are they?

Prue forces a smile.

PRUE

Friends. I’m gonna stay here if you don’t mind. I want to wait until there’s news about Mel.

JESSICA

(smiles)

Of course. I’m gonna put on some more comfortable clothes and we can hang out while we wait.

Prue forces a smile and nods. Jessica walks out of the room. Peri turns to Prue and Patience.

PRUE

You were not thinking of telling her who you are, were you?

PERI

I wanted to see if I could feel it too. The lack of a baby inside of her.

PATIENCE

Did you?

Peri shakes her head.

PATIENCE (CONT’D)

It doesn’t mean ---

PERI

I know. It’s not one of my powers anyway.

Prue holds Patience's hands. Then she holds out her hand towards Peri. Peri looks at it.

PRUE

I am your mother, Per. If you don’t trust your memories, then just trust me.

(assures her)

I am your mother.

Prue half-smiles. Peri nods and walks over to Prue and Patience. She grabs Prue hands. Peri and Patience look at each other and smile.

CUT TO:

INT. HALLIWELL MANOR - WYATT’S BEDROOM - DAY (SHORTLY AFTER)

Jessica walks into the bedroom and closes the door behind her. She smirks.

JESSICA

She’s here.

Jessica walks over to the walk-in closet.

JESSICA (CONT’D)

I don’t need to lure her here. She’s already in the wolf’s lair.

She gets into the walk-in closet and moments later comes out holding a tracksuit.

JESSICA (CONT’D)

I need to text Jared about this.

She puts the tracksuit on the bed and gets her cellphone from her bag.

JESSICA (CONT’D)

Let me first text Armand. He needs to get the Crone here.

Jessica types the text on her cellphone while an evil smile covers her entire face. Then she puts the cellphone on the bed and looks for something in her bag. Moments later she takes an amulet out of the bag and stares at it, still with her wicked smile on her face.

JESSICA (CONT’D)

Just one more of those and bang. No way she can use her powers to get out.

When she realizes what’s going on, it’ll be too late.

Jessica keeps smiling wickedly as she stares at the amulet.

ELLA

I wonder where the hole would lead to.

Bianca keeps pacing the room.

BIANCA

What?

Ella stares at Bianca.

ELLA

The hole you’re trying to make on the floor under your feet.

Bianca stops and stares at Ella.

BIANCA

I’m not willing to fight, Ella.

ELLA

Who says I am?

Both women stare at each other.

ELLA (CONT’D)

Look, Bianca, I know we didn’t start on the right foot, but to be fair, I didn’t know what was going on.

Bianca nods.

ELLA (CONT’D)

I think I found something about the Queen of Hearts.

BIANCA

Really?

Ella nods. Bianca walks over to her.

BIANCA (CONT’D)

Does it say how to vanquish her?

ELLA

Well, kinda. She was born with the power to paralyze others.

BIANCA

It comes in handing and explains how she manages to sentence others to death.

ELLA

By cutting their heads off.

Ella shows Bianca something in the book.

ELLA (CONT’D)

And it’s not just because of that she’s called the Queen of Hearts. She is an evil witch. Born and raised by mortals. They didn’t know who she really was until she started displaying her powers.

BIANCA

Let me guess.

They look at each other.

BIANCA (CONT’D)

They got scared of her?

Ella nods.

ELLA

Her parents tried to give her back to the orphanage she was before being adopted.

Bianca stares at the book.

ELLA (CONT’D)

The story her mommy told her every night before bed.

Ella points at something in the book.

BIANCA

Alice in Wonderland.

Ella nods.

ELLA

Her parents were beheaded years later.

Bianca stares astonished at Ella.

BIANCA

That’s horrible.

ELLA

Rejection can do badly for those unable to accept it.

Bianca nods. She stares back at the book.

BIANCA

It says here that she ran to the Underworld and stayed long to gather powers.

ELLA

But she only became the leader of her faction a few years ago after she found an Executioner demon.

Bianca glances at Ella.

BIANCA

It doesn’t say how to vanquish her.

ELLA

Not clearly, but we might figure out how by looking at her story.

Both women stare seriously at each other.

BIANCA

What are you thinking, Ella?

Ella smirks.

ELLA

We are witches, Ella. I’m sure we can figure out a way to vanquish her using her background against her.

It doesn’t take long for Bianca to realize what she means. Both women share an accomplished glance.

Prue is sitting on the couch caressing her big belly. She breaths in and out.

OFF TO PATIENCE - She walks into the living room and approaches Prue. She sits beside Prue.

PATIENCE

Mom, are you feeling okay?

Prue looks at Patience and forces a smile.

PRUE

As much as I like you to call me mom, I don’t want that Naja to learn who you are.

PATIENCE

Naja?

PRUE

A cobra. I find the translation more fitting.

Patience smiles. Prue feels a contraction.

PATIENCE

Are those ---

PRUE

No, it’s too soon.

(forces a smile again)

It’s just stress.

PATIENCE

Then, try to relax. Whatever is going on, we’ll fix it.

Prue and Patience stare at each other.

PATIENCE (CONT’D)

By the way, what date is it today? I can tell you when Peri and I are born and so ---

PRUE

No. I don’t need to know.

PATIENCE

But mom, ---

Patience stares intensely at Prue. Then she finally gives in.

PATIENCE

Prue.

PRUE

Where’s Peri?

Patience looks away.

PATIENCE

She’s, huh, in the kitchen.

Prue shoots her a pointed look.

PATIENCE (CONT’D)

With Aunt Jessica.

(corrects herself)

I mean, Jessica.

PRUE

She can’t ---

Prue tries to stand, but Patience stops her.

PATIENCE

She won’t tell her, mom. Trust Per. I know she’s impulsive and all, but it’s still Per. She’s got your suspicious bone.

Prue stares at Patience.

PRUE

My what?

Patience smiles.

PATIENCE

When she is suspicious of the unknown. It’s a knot in the head for me actually. Both Jo and Per are like that. Per more than Jo, but still.

Prue smiles as she listens to her daughter.

PRUE

Let me guess, you are the giving the benefit of the doubt type?

PATIENCE

Yeah. From dad.

PRUE

Which one?

Both women look at each other and then smile.

INT. HALLIWELL MANOR - KITCHEN - DAY

Jessica is by the oven. She’s preparing some kind of tea. Patience sits by the island staring intensely at what Jessica’s doing. Jessica notices it.

JESSICA (CONT’D)

Who are you again?

PERI

(serious)

Nate’s relatives. Cousins. We came to visit.

JESSICA

Both of you? Are you what? Sisters?

PERI

Patience and I? Oh, no, we are ---

(pauses)

--- cousins. Our mothers were twins.

JESSICA

I see.

Jessica adds some herbs into the pot.

PERI

So what’s that?

Jessica glances at Peri again.

JESSICA

Just some herbs. I’ve been taking them. It calms me down and I guess it’ll do good to Prue. She seems very stressed.

PERI

So, you two are friends?

JESSICA

We’re getting there.

PERI

So you weren’t?

Jessica gets serious. It seems like she’s getting annoyed at the interrogatory. Then she forces a smile.

JESSICA

Women’s heads are a mystery, right? Good thing we decided to make amends.

PERI

Of course.

JESSICA

Can you get me the cups?

Jessica points to the table. Peri turns around and then looks at Jessica. Peri nods and walks over to the table. While that, Jessica takes a small bottle from her tracksuit jacket pocket and pours it into the tea. She puts the bottle back into the pocket as Peri turns around and walks over to Jessica with the cups. Jessica smiles at Peri.

PERI

Are you sure that would do good to Prue?

Jessica turns to Peri and forces a smile.

JESSICA

It will for sure.

OFF TO ARMAND - He SHIMMERS out behind Peri.

Jessica smirks as she sees Armand. Armand grabs Peri. Peri is taken by surprise. Armand throws Peri against the cabinets. Peri falls on the floor unconscious. Armand and Jessica stare at each other.

JESSICA (CONT’D)

It was about time.

ARMAND

That made a lot of noise. You better have an explanation for that.

JESSICA

Sure. I’ll get the other woman here. Make sure both of them are out of my way.

ARMAND

I’ll kill them.

JESSICA

No. It’ll be suspicious. Just keep them down in the basement.

Jessica starts pouring the tea on one of the cups.

Patience stands staring across the room. Prue tries to stand.

PATIENCE

Prue, just stay quiet.

PRUE

You heard the noise.

PATIENCE

I know, and I’m gonna check it out. But you need to stay quiet. For your own good and the babies.

Prue shoots Patience a look. Patience fixes the pillows for Prue to lean back.

PRUE

Go.

PATIENCE

Would you do as I said?

PRUE

I’m all-mighty Prue Halliwell, Pat.

PATIENCE

(annoyed)

I know. Jeez!

Patience stands and is about to move when ---

OFF TO THE ENTRANCE - Jessica walks in carrying two cups.

JESSICA

How clumsy I am.

Jessica walks towards them and puts both cups on the center table. Prue and Patience look at her.

JESSICA (CONT’D)

I was taking some cups off the cabinet and I don’t know how it all came down.

PATIENCE

Where’s Peri?

JESSICA

Oh, she’s so sweet. Offered herself to clean up.

Jessica smiles big.

JESSICA (CONT’D)

(to Patience)

Could you be so sweet too and help her?

Prue and Patience glance at each other. Prue nods. Patience walks out of the room. Jessica sits across the center table from Prue.

JESSICA (CONT’D)

I made us some tea.

Jessica keeps the big smile on her face while Prue stares seriously at her.

Per? Per, wake up!

She tries to wake her sister up unsuccessfully.

From over her shoulders, Armand can be seen approaching. He stands behind her. Patience seems not to notice. Armand lowers down behind her and out of a sudden, he covers Patience's mouth with a cloth. Patience fights him for a few seconds then he wins. Patience loses consciousness.

ARMAND

Armand smirks and stands. Then he glances at the girls' unconscious bodies.

It was obvious she wouldn’t be there.

WYATT

Well, that was the best shoot we had. Did Rae say something?

Chris checks on his phone.

CHRIS

Nothing yet.

They keep walking. Chris glances at Wyatt every now and then.

CHRIS (CONT’D)

I’m proud of you, you know?

Wyatt glances at Chris.

WYATT

What for?

CHRIS

Well, first, you were firm with Prue.

WYATT

You were firm with Bianca too.

CHRIS

Well, in my defense, Bianca is not as all-mighty as Prue.

Wyatt smiles.

CHRIS (CONT’D)

I can’t risk another baby, Wy.

WYATT

I know. Me neither.

CHRIS

She’s almost not fighting your orders.

WYATT

I didn’t order her to stay behind.

Chris shoots him a pointed look.

WYATT (CONT’D)

Well, she cannot know that it was an order. I’m her husband, Chris, and I must look after her and my children.

Chris stops. Wyatt keeps walking but stops when he realizes Chris isn’t following.

WYATT (CONT’D)

What?

CHRIS

You allowed us to split.

Wyatt looks away.

WYATT

(glances at Chris)

We need to find our sister.

CHRIS

Yes. And we will.

WYATT

We need to do it fast, Chris, ‘cause I need to confront Jessica.

CHRIS

I know.

Wyatt looks away. Chris stares seriously at his big brother.

CHRIS (CONT’D)

What are you going to do about her?

Wyatt glances at Chris. He is serious.

WYATT

She lied to me all this time, Chris. I’m gonna find out who this woman is and I’m gonna make her pay.

CHRIS

So, you think she might be a demon?

WYATT

Whatever she is, she’s evil. And we vanquish evil beings.

CHRIS

Jessica better be careful, huh?

WYATT

She better be.

ON WYATT - He is serious.

Jessica hands the teacup to Prue. Prue stares seriously at it.

JESSICA

It’s just camomile tea.

PRUE

I said I’m fine.

Prue feels a kick.

PRUE (CONT’D)

Damn!

JESSICA

I see you’re not.

Prue looks at the cup.

JESSICA (CONT’D)

Humor me. Just one sip.

Prue stares seriously at Jessica.

PRUE

Why are they taking so long?

JESSICA

I told you. The cabinet went all down. It’s a total mess.

PRUE

I better go to help them.

Prue starts standing up.

JESSICA

Oh, Prue c’mon. You’re pregnant.

Prue stands and suddenly she feels weak.

PRUE

God!

Prue sits back on the couch.

JESSICA

Drink this and I’ll go check on them.

Prue stares at Jessica for a few seconds. Jessica gives her a pleading look and sweet smile. Then Prue agrees.

PRUE

Fine. Just a sip.

JESSICA

It’s just camomile.

Prue takes the cup and has a sip of it while Jessica stares victorious at her.

JESSICA (CONT’D)

Good girl.

Prue puts the cup on the center table. Immediately, Prue feels a strong pain in the abdomen.

JESSICA (CONT’D)

Are you feeling okay?

PRUE


I guess the waters broke.

Jessica sounds worried but doesn’t act like it.

JESSICA

Don’t worry. I’ll get us some help.

OFF TO THE ENTRANCE - Armand walks in and stops.

ARMAND

Done.

Prue glances at Armand. Then she glances at Jessica.

PRUE

You ---

JESSICA

I got us help.

OFF TO THE ENTRANCE - The Crone Jessica was previously seen talking to walks in.

JESSICA (CONT’D)

She’s the midwife.

Prue starts getting red.

PRUE

Naja!

JESSICA

C’mon, Prue. Don’t be like that. Let’s bring our babies to this world.

PRUE

My babies. And it’s not time.

JESSICA

Oh, that tea I gave you ---

PRUE

Arggg!

Prue feels a strong contraction.

JESSICA

Yeah. It accelerated the process.

Prue stares astonished at Jessica.

PRUE

Your bitch!

Jessica smirks.

JESSICA

Take her to my bedroom, Armand.

PRUE

Armand?

Armand starts moving towards them. Prue holds out her hand.

PRUE (CONT’D)

Don’t get close to me?

Prue WAVES her hands, but nothing happens.

PRUE (CONT’D)

(confused)

What---?

Jessica stands and paces the room.

JESSICA

Yeah. Amulets.

(serious; to Armand)

Take her.

PRUE

No. No.

Armand approaches Prue and grabs her. Prue tries to fight him, but he is stronger. Armand takes Prue out of the room. Jessica turns to the Crone.

JESSICA

Let’s deliver those babies.

The Crone nods. Jessica walks out of the room followed by the Crone.

INT. JARED’S APARTMENT - BEDROOM - DAY

Melinoe paces the bedroom wearing Jared’s robe. He leans down on the bed only covered by the bedsheets.

MELINOE

What if the plan fails?

JARED

That’s not even a possibility.

MELINOE

(stops; stares at him)

Are you sure? It’s the freaking Warrens we’re talking about.

JARED

I know what we’re doing, Melinoe.

Melinoe smirks as he says her name.

MELINOE

I just hope you succeed. Your help will come in handy when I decide to face my father and sister to get my throne.

JARED

When you say your father ---

(smirks)

--- which one do you mean?

Melinoe shoots him a pointed look.

MELINOE

I better leave. I’ve been here for so long.

Melinoe gets her clothes from the bed. She stares at Jared.

MELINOE (CONT’D)

I hope you succeed. Honestly.

Then Melinoe BLUE SMOKES out.

JARED

She took my favorite robe.

Jared smirks wickedly.

The demons turn around.

DEMON #1

We got her.

Leora walks over to Melinda’s body.

LEORA

A Destined One?

DEMON #1

You haven’t given up, right?

Leora turns to the demons.

LEORA

I gave no orders.

DEMON #2

We want to serve you. We got her for you.

Leora lowers down near Melinda’s body and stares at her face.

DEMON #1

The others are coming for her.

Leora smiles. She touches Melinda’s face.

Great. Let them come.

PRUE

Let go of me, whoever you are!

Prue is mad.

CRONE

You better be nice to me. I’m the one delivering those babies.

PRUE

You don’t dare to put hands on my babies or else ---

JESSICA (O.S.)

Or else what?

Jessica walks into the bedroom. Prue and Jessica glance at each other.

JESSICA (CONT’D)

You don’t have a saying on this, Prue. One of those babies will be mine.

PRUE

No, they won’t. I won’t allow it.

JESSICA

As I said, you don’t have a saying.

PRUE

Where are they?

Jessica smiles.

JESSICA

Oh, those women. Whoever they are. Armand took care of them.

Prue’s eyes widen.

PRUE

Don’t you dare hurting my daughters!

Jessica stares seriously at Prue.

JESSICA

I don’t want to hurt them! I want one of them for me. I can’t have them both ‘cause one of them will take over you and your beaming thing.

PRUE

You’ll pay me.

JESSICA

You won’t be alive to make me pay.

Prue swallows.

JESSICA (CONT’D)

Yeah, that’s right. You’ll die once those babies are out. I’ll take one of the babies for me and the other one ---

(smirks)

I was planning to give her a merciful death, you see? But I think it would be better for her to grow without mommy dearest.

PRUE

You are behind this, aren’t you? The whole reality-warping thing.

Jessica gets serious.

PRUE (CONT’D)

Oh, yeah, I know about that.

JESSICA

How is that possible?

PRUE

Bingo! You know about it.

Prue laughs.

PRUE (CONT’D)

You are behind this.

JESSICA

You have no idea what you’re talking about.

PRUE

Oh, I know. Now, where are my daughters?

Prue gets serious. Jessica and Prue stare at each other. Then Jessica realizes something.

JESSICA

Your daughters?

Jessica stares at Prue’s belly.

JESSICA (CONT’D)

You’re not talking about those babies inside your belly.

(looks at Prue)

You’re talking about those women down there.

PRUE

They have powers you don’t know, Jessica.

JESSICA

They are locked.

PRUE

Don’t ---

Prue can’t finish what she’s going to say. Jessica rushes out of the bedroom. The Crone stares at Prue as she feels a strong contraction.

CRONE

Prue cries out loud.

The twins are on a magical cage. Patience paces inside the small cage while Peri just stands still. Armand stands nearby staring at them.

ARMAND

You two should sit.

Peri and Patience don’t look at him.

PERI

Would you stop? I can’t think.

Patience doesn’t stop.

PERI (CONT’D)

She’s planning something. That’s why she took us out of the way.

PATIENCE

But what?

PERI

What day is today?

Patience stops and stares at Peri.

PATIENCE

I don’t know.

Peri and Patience look at Armand.

PERI

(to Armand)

What day is today?

ARMAND

Why is that so important?

PERI

Just answer me.

Armand grimaces.

ARMAND

Not that you can give me orders, but ---

(sighs)

--- January, seventeen.

Peri and Patience's eyes widen.

PATIENCE

Per ---

PERI

(swallows)

I know.

Patience stares seriously at Peri who gets thoughtful.

PATIENCE

That is it, Per.

PERI

Prue gives birth to us and ---

PATIENCE

She takes you.

Both sisters stare at each other.

JESSICA (V.O.)

Armand!

Armand looks up at the kitchen door. Then he shoots the twins a look and then walks upstairs towards the kitchen.

PERI

That's how she becomes my mother. She’ll pretend to give birth on the same day.

PATIENCE

A demon attacked and tried to steal the babies. That is the story I heard. The demon kills mom.

PERI

We can’t let it happen.

PATIENCE

Armand. That’s him. Per, we need to get to mom.

PERI

We don’t know how to get out of here.

PATIENCE

You can.

Peri stares at Patience.

PATIENCE (CONT’D)

You told me once you were the one who used to kick mom’s wombs the most, remember?

Peri holds her head between her hands.

PERI

My memories are all confused, Pat.

PATIENCE

Mine too. But I remember that. You hated bad words, you still do.

PERI

You do too.

PATIENCE

But you were the one with the guts to kick mom’s womb from the inside.

PERI

Pat ---

PATIENCE

Peri.

Patience grabs Peri’s hand.

PATIENCE (CONT’D)

Try to communicate with her.

PERI

There are amulets all around the house.

PATIENCE

Yes. But we are Warrens. Communicate with her. I’ll help.

Peri nods.

PERI

Fine.

Patience smiles.

PATIENCE

We are the Blessed Twins, remember that.

Peri nods and smiles.

MELINDA

Oh, what the hell!

MELINDA’S POV - Slowly the blur starts disappearing. She spots Leora in front of her.

MELINDA (CONT’D)

Oh, crap.

Leora stands in front of Melinda.

LEORA

(smiles)

Exactly. We are just waiting for your sibling and cousins to arrive. I can’t wait to have you all here.

MELINDA

The Queen of Hearts.

LEORA

Once I get hands-on the nine of you, I’ll have your heads in my hand. Literally.

MELINDA

Great.

JESSICA

I didn’t know, okay? It’s done. Now we need to get those babies out and then Jared can take care of their memories.

ARMAND

Jared? Your brother?

Jessica looks away.

ARMAND (CONT’D)

What does he have to do with this? Where’s him by the way?

JESSICA

Listen, Armand, let’s focus on what matters now. We’ll talk about my brother later.

(pauses)

Just keep watching the twins.

SOUND - A scream.

JESSICA (CONT’D)

I’m gonna check on Prue.

Jessica turns around and leaves the kitchen. Armand sighs. Then he turns around and walks into the basement.

Prue cries out loud. The Crone is pressing Prue’s belly.

PRUE

(out loud)

NO!

CRONE

You need to push.

PRUE

No, I don’t. Not now.

Prue feels a strong pain.

CRONE

You have to. Those babies want to come out.

PRUE

No. They don’t.

Prue cries out loud again.

CRONE

Push!

Jessica walks into the bedroom and approaches the bed. Prue looks at Jessica.

PRUE

My daughters ---

JESSICA

They’ll be fine. Now push.

Prue stares seriously at Jessica. She tries not to push.

JESSICA (CONT’D)

You can’t keep them in, Prue. It’s too late.

CRONE

Push.

Tears start running down Prue’s face.

CRONE (CONT’D)

Push.

A strong contraction. A scream. And then a voice ---

PERI (V.O.)

Mom?

Prue stops screaming.

CRONE

Push.

PERI (V.O.)

Mom, it’s Jessica. She’s trying to steal baby me. Mom.

Prue looks at Jessica. It seems like Prue is the only one that can hear Peri’s voice.

PERI (V.O. / CONT’D)

Mom, you are a Warren. Use this to stop her. Projection.

Prue looks at Jessica.

JESSICA

Push.

PRUE

You won’t win.

Jessica smirks.

JESSICA

I’m gonna take off these clothes. And I need to prepare another bedroom. For when they come.

Jessica turns around and walks out of the bedroom. The Crone glances at Prue.

CRONE

Push.

PRUE

Water. I need water.

Prue looks at the Crone.

PRUE (CONT’D)

Please. Then I’ll push.

The Crone nods. Then she walks out of the bedroom. Prue starts thinking.

PRUE (CONT’D)

So, projection, huh? Where do you want me to project to, Per? Where?

And then ---

It hits her.

The girl is afraid. But I believe she’ll soon be able to dream and see the responsible one for this mess.

RUBY

Great.

And then ---

BEAT. Prue appears in front of them. Sweaty, unkempt, wearing the nightdress. Prue glances around.

PRUE

Blanche?

Both Ruby and Blanche stare at Prue. Blanche stands.

BLANCHE

Prue?

PRUE

I don’t have much time. I don’t even know how I’m here. I need help. Jessica is going to steal one of the babies. I’m giving birth, Blanche. I need you.

BLANCHE

Where are the others?

PRUE

I’m sure it did.

Armand stares seriously at them.

ARMAND

What are you two talking about?

Peri and Patience stare at Armand.

PERI

We are just wandering which Warren will vanquish you.

Armand laughs.

PATIENCE

You might laugh, but I can assure you there’s no Armand where we come from.

Armand gets serious.

PERI

You’re right, Pat.

Both twins smile at Armand. He is serious.

CUT TO:

INT. DARK TOWER - CELL - NIGHT

Blanche and Ruby stare at each other.

BLANCHE

Jessica. She’s Wyatt’s wife in this reality.

RUBY

So, that’s the bitch responsible for this?

BLANCHE

She’s just a witch.

RUBY

Is she?

Blanche glances at Ruby.

BLANCHE

I need to help Prue.

RUBY

Blanche ---

BLANCHE

Just keep digging. I’ll be back as soon as possible.

RUBY

Blanche ---

BLANCHE

I’m gonna try not to kill Jessica so we can get information from her.

RUBY

(out loud)

Blanche!

Blanche looks at Ruby.

RUBY (CONT’D)

The others must be on a trap.

BLANCHE

I can get to Prue and then the others.

RUBY

Not alone.

Both sisters stare at each other. Blanche sees where her sister is heading to.

BLANCHE

I’m not gonna let you walk out of there free, Ruby.

RUBY

I know. I know you don’t trust me ---

BLANCHE

Don’t trust you? Ruby, you turned the whole world into a freaking dark world.

RUBY

I know.

BLANCHE

You turned two of the most powerful witches on Earth into the Source and Queen of All Evil.

RUBY

I --- know.

BLANCHE

You killed mom and dad.

Ruby is serious. She swallows.

RUBY

You never said it like that.

BLANCHE

You know is the truth.

RUBY

I know.

Ruby lowers her gaze. Blanche notices there’s something different about her sister.

BLANCHE

Ruby?

RUBY

I know what I did.

Ruby looks at her sister. Her eyes are wet.

RUBY (CONT’D)

All these years I knew they died because of me. I tried to blame you, but I knew I was responsible for their deaths.

BLANCHE

I never thought you would admit that.

RUBY

I was blind with hatred. You were born and they loved you more than ---

BLANCHE

They loved both of us.

RUBY

I know that now. And I am so sorry I didn’t see it sooner. I was born to be evil.

BLANCHE

No, that’s not true.

Blanche rushes to Ruby and holds her sister’s hand.

BLANCHE (CONT’D)

Evil isn’t born.

RUBY

It’s made.

Blanche nods.

RUBY (CONT’D)

Momma used to say that.

BLANCHE

Yeah, she did.

RUBY

I’m sorry.

A tear runs down Ruby’s face. Blanche sighs.

BLANCHE

One last chance, Ruby.

Both sisters stare at each other.

BLANCHE (CONT’D)

Prove me you deserve redemption.

Hope starts appearing in Ruby’s face.

BLANCHE (CONT’D)

Prove me otherwise and you’ll never see the sunlight again.

Ruby nods.

RUBY

The Red and the White Witch working together.

Blanche smiles.

BLANCHE

Who would say!

OFF TO THE ENTRANCE - Jessica walks in. She’s wearing a white nightdress and the big belly is gone.

JESSICA

How is it going?

CRONE

She’s turning things complicated.

JESSICA

(looking at Prue)

C’mon, Prue. Let them come out.

PRUE

Not while they’re in danger.

CRONE

You cannot stop those babies from coming out.

PRUE

I can certainly try.

Prue feels a strong contraction and that’s when the Crone opens Prue’s legs.

CRONE

Hold her.

Jessica rushes to the bed and tries to keep Prue’s legs open while the Crone applies some pressure on Prue’s belly.

PRUE

Let go of me.

CRONE

Push!

PRUE

No!

Prue is all sweaty and red.

PRUE (CONT’D)

Let go of me.

Peri and Patience stare at Armand.

PERI

You know what, I’m gonna kill you. Or better, I’m gonna let dad do it. And then I’ll bring you back only to vanquish you.

Armand laughs making fun of them.

ARMAND

You won’t even remember.

PERI

We’ll see about that.

SOUND - Another scream.

PATIENCE

(to Peri)

Do you think mom was able to use projection to get help?

PERI

I don’t know. I don’t even know if she heard me.

PATIENCE

I’m sure she did. She heard you from the womb many times.

PERI

We don’t know that, Pat. That’s just a theory.

PATIENCE

No, it’s not, Per. It’s the connection between mothers and daughters.

Peri sighs.

PERI

I wish dad was here.

The twins hold hands.

Hold her arms!

Jessica tries to move up in the bed to reach Prue’s arms. Prue tries to fight her when another contraction hits.

CRONE (CONT’D)

C’mon!

PRUE

(to Jessica)

I’m gonna kill you, you freaking bitch!

JESSICA

I’ll do that first, crazy woman! Now, push and give me my baby.

PRUE

They are mine!

AND AT THAT MOMENT, something hits Jessica hard. Jessica lets go of Prue and is THROWN all the way in the air hitting the cellar. Prue and the Crone stare astonished at it. Jessica hits the floor unconscious. Then, both of them stare at the entrance.

BEAT. Blanche stands there. Her arms hold out. Blanche stares at the Crone. Then Blanche WAVES one of her hands and creates a FIREBALL.

Prue’s eyes widen while Blanche throws the FIREBALL against the Crone. As the Crone gets hit, she blows up immediately. Prue and Blanche stare at each other. Prue leans back.

PRUE

(relieved)

You came.

BLANCHE

(walking over to the bed)

I missed Jo’s birth. No way I was going to miss the twins’ birth.

Blanche gets on the bed. Prue and Blanche look at each other.

BLANCHE (CONT’D)

I need you focused on this right now. I’m here okay?

Prue nods.

BLANCHE (CONT’D)

Let’s bring those twins to this world.

Prue nods. Blanche peeks between Prue’s legs and smiles.

BLANCHE (CONT’D)

That’s Peri. She’s the stubborn one. Of course, she had to be the first.

Melinda is still handcuffed at the rock wall. The cave is crowded with demons. Leora is at the front. All demons are whispering as they stare at Leora. She motions for them to be silent.

LEORA

It is time, my loyal companions.

(smiles)

We now give the first step to new leadership.

DEMON #3

What about Armand? Will he attempt to screw this again?

LEORA

He’s out of the radar.

(smirks)

And we ---

(turns to Melinda)

--- have a Warren.

DEMON #4

Last time we also had a Warren.

Leora turns to the demons.

LEORA

But we are gonna receive more.

At that moment, Wyatt, Chris, Charlotte, Cassandra, Tamora, Pandora, Junior, and Damon walk in.

WYATT

You got that right.

Everybody turns around. Leora smirks as she looks at the Destined Ones.

LEORA

You came.

The Destined Ones plus Damon stare at Leora.

DAMON

You’ve got something that doesn’t belong to you.

Leora smiles, but her smile doesn’t last long. Damon uses his SONIC SCREAM. All demons in the cave cover their ears. Some start disappearing. The Destined Ones cover their ears. Leora stands still. Melinda tries to cover her ears with her arms. Damon stops the SONIC SCREAM. There’s only Leora, the Destined Ones, and Damon in the cave.

LEORA

Pretty trick, but I guess you didn’t put all in it, did you?

DAMON

You’d be dead.

LEORA

No, I wouldn’t. I’ve dealt with Manticores before.

WYATT

Yeah, but you haven’t dealt with us.

Leora smirks.

CHRIS

Let her go.

LEORA

Or what? You let me go?

TAMORA

I’m sorry, lady, but we cannot do that.

LEORA

I’m a witch, you know? A powerful one. Would you kill a witch?

CHARLOTTE

You’re evil.

LEORA

Right. That changes it all, huh?

(approaches Melinda)

Anyway, I can’t let her go.

(turns to the others)

And I can’t let you go either.

Leora WAVES her hands and uses IMMOBILIZATION on the Destined Ones and Damon. Only their eyes and lips move. Leora stares at them.

WYATT

What the hell did you do?

LEORA

Never walk into the lair of a demon without knowing who you’re facing to.

PANDORA

You said it yourself. You’re a witch.

LEORA

Right. Demon, evil witch. Bite me. I would say we’re all the same, but we all know it isn’t true. So, ---

(shrugs)

You get the idea. Now, ---

(smirks; calling)

--- Executioner!

Nothing happens. Leora grimaces.

LEORA (CONT’D)

Right, he was vanquished. Damn, I’ll have to do it myself.

CASSANDRA

You are a crazy bi ---

LEORA

Don’t finish it or I’ll cut your head first.

Leora WAVES her hands and SUMMONS an AX in her hand. The Destined Ones’ eyes widen.

MELINDA

Holly crap!

WYATT

I’m gonna kill you.

LEORA

You might try. Now ---

Leora glances around.

LEORA (CONT’D)

Who’ll be the first?

(looks at Melinda)

I could start with you.

MELINDA

Go to hell.

Leora turns to the others.

LEORA

Or the Manticore.

DAMON

Just try.

Leora smirks.

LEORA

Maybe I will.

Then Leora glances at Wyatt and walks over to them.

LEORA (CONT’D)

Or, I could start with the eldest one.

Leora and Wyatt stare seriously at each other.

WYATT

Come and get me.

Leora stands in front of Wyatt.

LEORA

Off with your head.

Leora raises up the ax and starts waving it towards Wyatt when ---

The ax FLIES away from her hands and hits a rock wall and gets stuck in it.

LEORA (CONT’D)

No!

Leora glances around astonished.

OFF TO THE ENTRANCE - Ruby, wearing an elegant red dress walks into the cave.

RUBY

Now, now, dear. You are not the right person to destroy them.

Melinda’s eyes widen as she sees Ruby walking in.

MELINDA

Oh. My. God.

JUNIOR

What’s going on?

Leora stares at Ruby.

LEORA

Who the hell are you?

RUBY

Someone you should not piss off.

TAMORA

That voice.

CHRIS

It can’t be.

MELINDA

Believe me, it can.

RUBY

Can you shut up and let me work?

WYATT

Ruby?

Leora’s eyes widen.

LEORA

The Red Witch.

Ruby smirks.

RUBY

(smirks)

Oh, so you know who I am. Great. We can skip presentations.

WYATT

Ruby, what the hell are you doing here?

RUBY

Giving you a hand, dumbass.

LEORA

This is my fight.

Leora WAVES her hands trying to use her IMMOBILIZATION powers against Ruby, but ---

It doesn’t work. Ruby smirks.

RUBY

Yes, then there’s that.

Ruby WAVES her hands and leans Leora against a rock wall. Leora is taken by surprise.

RUBY (CONT’D)

You see, huh, Queen of Hearts, isn’t it? I’m not very fond of so-called queens.

Ruby walks over to Leora. Everyone stares at them.

RUBY (CONT’D)

Met one once. Actually, I made her queen. She never said thank you. So, you, never ever try again to put hands on them.

LEORA

You want the credits all to yourselves.

RUBY

(smirks)

You bet.

Ruby reaches out her hand which GLOWS RED. Leora starts freaking out. Ruby approaches her hand to Leora’s face.

LEORA

What are you doing?

Ruby touches Leora’s face. She's using TOUCH OF DEATH. Leora’s skin welts and bursts, incinerating on contact. Soon, Leora’s body incinerates. She screams as she’s losing the battle. Leora becomes dust quickly.

Ruby turns to the others. They start moving normally. Ruby snaps her fingers and Melinda is released. Melinda rubs her arms. All of them stare at Ruby. Ruby opens her arms.

RUBY

Uh, you’re welcome.

CHRIS

What are you doing here?

RUBY

I couldn’t live with myself knowing that someone other than me end you.

They all stare at Ruby.

RUBY (CONT’D)

Okay, fine. I did this because my sister asked me. Well, she didn’t. I offered myself.

TAMORA

I knew you were helping Blanche, but a change of heart?

RUBY

Oh, please, don’t exaggerate.

WYATT

So, what, Ruby? Should we worry about you now?

RUBY

Not yet. This time I’m on the right side.

They give her a pointed look.

RUBY (CONT’D)

The good side. I’m here to help. And you guys should be heading home. The Queen of All Evil ---

(pauses)

Sorry, Prue, is delivering.

WYATT

What?

RUBY

Just go.

Wyatt ORBS out right away followed by Chris, Junior, Pandora, and Tamora. Then Charlotte and Cassandra BEAM out. Damon and Melinda stare at Ruby.

MELINDA

What about you?

RUBY

(shrugs)

I? I’m coming with you, of course.

No.

WYATT

C’mon, love. You are almighty Prue, remember?

Prue looks at Wyatt.

PRUE

I don’t feel that all-mighty right now.

WYATT

(smiles)

You are the mother of the next generation of Charmed Ones. Want something almightier than that?

Prue and Wyatt stare at each other for a few seconds. Then Prue nods. Wyatt smiles.
