"Witch Way Now?"

Description: "When the Angel of Destiny offers the sisters a chance to relinquish their powers and lead normal lives as a reward for vanquishing The Source of all Evil, their decision is put on the back burner. The sisters try to avoid an FBI agent who has them under surveilance, while also dealing with Cole's calls for help, who is trapped in another realm, holding onto his love for Phoebe. Plus, Piper remarkably finds out that she is pregnant."

The sisters finally got to make the choice of a lifetime, whether to continue their destiny and saving innocents, or a chance to give up those powers and live normal magic-free lives. After all of the good that the Charmed Ones have done over the years, it's about time that someone steps up and offers to reward them for it. I wasn't surprised the slightest that they were leaning toward giving them up after the last 4 years they've had. Losing a sister, gaining and losing true love, and being flung around by demons on a daily basis, who wouldn't turn that down in a heart beat? I felt bad for Paige there for a while because she wanted to keep her powers but it was majority rules. Like Piper said, her and Phoebe had been doing this a lot longer than Paige had, and lost and put up with a lot of crap over the last four years. When the Charmed Ones started out four years ago, they had no idea how hard, life changing, heart wrenching, and physically draining being a witch was. The most they thought about was rhyming a couple of words and then shopping for some shoes. A sad quote in this episode is when Phoebe and Piper are trying to explain to Paige why they're thinking about giving up their powers and Piper says, "Paige, I can't have kids because of what we do." So sad! Speaking of problems they've had to deal with through the years, Cole is back and contacting Phoebe from another realm. The fact that there's another realm where demons go when vanquished is weird enough, but that some kind of creature is down there to devour their powers is absurd. I was surprised that Phoebe even responded to Cole's call after all he put her through, but I guess she figures it really wasn't Cole who was The Source, and it's not The Source now who's calling out to her, it's Cole. This Jackman dude has a lot of nerve tricking the Charmed Ones into believing that he was going to expose them unless they help him catch a witch "hunter", when really he wanted a witch so he could kill her, because he was the witch hunter. How weird was it that he had bugged the outside of their house? I thought it was hilarious when Phoebe went up to the attic and started blasting the music, and then Jackman jumped about a mile in his truck. Saving that witch was the best thing that could have happened to the sisters, because they got a taste of how life without their powers would be, and it wasn't easy. In the end, I was surprised by their decision to continue using magic since they were leaning so heavily on the other choice, but no matter what I stand by their decision and will continue to support them every step of the way. I love when the Angel of Destiny says, "No matter what your choice was, the outcome wouldn't have changed you and Leo's personal destiny." What a nonchalant way of hinting that Piper is indeed pregnant. I cannot tell you how loud I squeal everytime I watch this episode, because against all odds like everything else in their relationship, Piper and Leo have found a way to make it work and are now expecting a baby! This time the Angel of Destiny did the honors of closing the manor doors shut. "May the power of three set you free!" Keep reading and watching!

Peace, Love, and Charmed!
