"Enter The Demon"

Description: "While making a potion, Paige accidentally switches bodies with Phoebe. Meanwhile, when an apprentice ninja kills his master, the sisters must find a way to vanquish him, while learning to control their switched powers."



A lot of lessons were learned in this episode of Charmed. Chinese students were training to become Zen masters, and Paige was training to become a Charmed One. I don't understand why everyone has to keep reminding Paige that they've been doing this a lot longer than her. She knows, and to keep telling her isn't going to make her feel any better. It won't help her confidence either. It's funny to see how Piper and Phoebe's roles have changed. Piper was always the middle sister, mediating between her sisters, and now she has to be the oldest sister who's always in charge and who the younger ones look to for guidance. Phoebe was always the youngest and had the least amount of stress on her, and now she's the middle sister where she has to mediate between Piper and Paige. Birth order is always stereo types because everyones is different, but isn't it funny how everybody always just naturally live up to the stereo types. Paige is working hard though so she'll eventually get it. I loved to see Piper being such a hard teacher. You wouldn't think that Piper, with her personality, would be such a stickler for learning witchcraft, but with the never ending threat of the Source looming over the sisters' heads, they have to be prepared at any time. I wish the writers of the show had gone more into what Yen Lo did evil. They said he used his knowledge for evil, but they never went into specifics. I don't really think it mattered whether we knew or not, but it would of been nice to at least have more background on him. An Ling took the news they were witches very well, and didn't even seem fazed when they used their powers in front of her. An Ling and her father kept saying that Yen Lo was the better student, but how they were battling and stuff it looked to me that An ling was the more powerful one. I thought it was very brave of Piper to switch bodies with the Zen Master, because she didn't know whether or not her sisters were going to be able to get her soul back. She might have thought since the Zen master would be in her body, that he would be able to help Paige and Phoebe get Piper's soul back. Speaking of switching bodies, how funny was it to see Phoebe and Paige be each other for the day? It was so hilarious! You never realize how different each sister is from the others until they switch places, and they have no idea what to do. It was funny how Cole figured out that they had switched, and then he kissed Paige (Phoebe) in order to get them to fess up. "May the power of three set you free!" Keep reading and watching!











Peace, Love, and Charmed!
