"Which Prue Is It Anyway?"

Description: "When Phoebe has a premonition of Prue being stabbed to death, it coincides with a warrior coming to town in order to steal the abilities of a first born witch."
Three Prue clones? Could you imagine what it would be like if someone you knew cloned themselves? I found it hilarious how the Halliwells had an issue with the bathrooms when it was just the three of them, and then Prue made it an even bigger problem by cloning herself. It didn't take Phoebe and Piper long to realize that living with two extra clones of Prue wasn't going to work, since not only were they now hogging both of the bathrooms, they were drinking all of the coffee. Making Prue and her clones wear the different colored sweaters to tell them apart was ingenious. Piper and Phoebe still had to keep track of where the clones went throughout the day, but at least they could distinguish which one was the real Prue. It looks like Phoebe has finally found an outlet for her pent up frustration and anger, plus she's found something she can excel at and use to fight demons since she doesn't have an active power. I love when Piper and Prue came home and they're talking, when they start hearing Phoebe in the other room and it sounds like she's fighting something. So the two of them go in the other room and see Phoebe beating up on "Mr. Slam." When Prue and Piper ask Phoebe what's going on and she responds with, "Oh, nothing," and Piper responds with, "Nothing? It looks like you're about to open up a can of whoop a**!" Too funny! Piper has such a witty and sarcastic humor about her and it gets to me every time. This lords of war guy Gabriel and his sister Helena were really creepy. I don't understand why the producers included the bit in the beginning of the episode where Gabriel killed that fighter/boxer, because it had no significance to the rest of the episode so it wasn't needed. It was probably the producers way of introducing the demon to the viewers before the sisters even knew about him. Despite Gabriel and his sister Helena being Warriors of War, they had an impressive collection of artifacts. I don't know that much about the different forms of art, but even I can appreciate a good collection that's valuable when I see it. Too bad it was all a set up, and all in attempt to obtain the powers of a first born witch! I still can't believe that Gabriel killed his sister because one of the clones offered Helena in exchange for the sword. My family means everything to me, so I don't understand how people can do that to their family member since I would literally trade anything to save one of my family members. But that my friends is where the fine line between good and evil is drawn. I also found it interesting how both of Prue's clones represented parts of her personality that we don't get to see very often. For example, clone one represented the bossy controlling Prue, whereas clone two represented the fun loving, partying side of Prue. In other words, it was parts of Prue's personality that she often represses. I thought it was sweet when Andy was so distraught when he thought it was Prue who was dead in the morgue. Even though Andy's mad at Prue because he can tell she's keeping something from him, you can still see how much he truly loves and cares for her. "May the power of three set you free!" Keep reading and watching!
Peace, Love, and Charmed!
