Episode Summary |
| |
In San Francisco, the three vastly different Halliwell sisters are reunited in the grand Victorian home of their childhood: Prue, the oldest, is driven to succeed and dislikes the free-spirited antics of the youngest sister Phoebe. Piper, the earthy middle sister, mediates between her siblings. Phoebe discovers The Book of Shadows in the attic and their witchly powers are activated, igniting a bond that reaches beyond petty, sisterly grudges. Prue has the power to move objects, Piper to freeze time and Phoebe to see the future. The sisters must band together to battle dark forces of the supernatural world. Keeping their powers secret could prove a challenge, since Inspector Andy Trudeau, Prue's ex, is closing in on a serial killer preying on local witches. Piper narrowly escapes death when she discovers her white-bread boyfriend Jeremy, an evil warlock, is the killer. Sparks fly when the sisters try their first spell -- Jeremy is vanquished, and they discover the power of three. | | There are no foreign summaries for this episode: Contribute | | English Recap Available: View Here |

Spells
To Call for the Powers:
Hear now the Words of the Witches,
The secrets we hid in the night,
The oldest of gods are invoked here,
The great work of magic is sought,
In this night and in this hour,
I call upon the ancient power,
Bring your powers to we sisters three,
We want the power,
Give us the power.
To break the Bond of Love
Your love will wither and depart
from my life and my heart.
Let me be, Jeremy,
and go away forever.
To invoke the Power of Three
The Power of Three will set us free. |
