"Sense And Sense Ability"

Description: "In order to get close to baby Wyatt, the Crone steals one of the senses from each of the Charmed Ones, in an attempt to fool the child. The Charmed Ones run into major complications without their senses."

This is one of my three favorite episodes of the show, because of how much humor surrounds the fact that the sisters have to learn to cope without their key senses. It's a tribute to those three amazing actresses that they can play blind, mute, and deaf, as well as they did and make it seem so real. My favorite parts of the episode were when the sisters had to figure out how to communicate with eachother by doing a lot of miming and noises. The funniest one I would probably have to be Phoebe. It's pretty obvious that Phoebe relies on her hearing a lot, so when it was suddenly taken from her she had to get used to it. I don't blame her, because if I had to choose, I would give up my hearing last. It's quite ironic that the Crone was the person who put the law in place saying no one can harm baby Wyatt, but then she's the first one to try and get to him. I have to give her props though, because she was very creative in how she went about getting to him. Wyatt is proving episode after episode how smart and powerful he already is, so to fool him into thinking you're one of the family, the Crone had to be really smart. I agree with what Piper said about seeing Wyatt already coming into his powers this early. If he can already sense, orb, and use a force field as an infant, there's no telling how strong his powers will become in the future. My favorite quote of this episode is when the sisters were downstairs and they had found out they all had lost senses, and then Leo walks in and says, "What's going on?" Then when Paige, Piper, and Phoebe cover the parts of their head that were effected and Leo says, "Oh, I see," which Piper then follows that up with, "Well I don't!" I found it interesting that the longer the Halliwells went without their powers, the easier it seemed to become for them. For the sisters to be able to acquire a sixth sense and almost be able to tell what the others are thinking, just goes to show how close of a relationship they have as sisters. It is a proven fact that when you lose one of your senses, the rest of them work harder to make up for the one that's lost. Like Piper for instance. When she lost her eye sight, her hearing then stepped up to the plate and was enhanced. Another favorite part of the episode of mine is when Paige is in the attic questioning the Kazi demon and can't get answers out of him, but when Phoebe comes up she has the idea that maybe the Kazi can't read. Then Paige shows her the paper that says "demons lie", and Phoebe follows with, "Yeah, but not about literacy." Too funny! Speaking of Phoebe, looks like there are benefits to dating your boss, because she sure as hell wasn't up for national syndication beforehand. Although she's getting all these benefits from the relationship, I can tell that's not what either one of them is in it for. Anybody can tell that Phoebe and Jason surely to like each other, and it's obvious that there is something special there. I'm glad that in the end though, Phoebe decides against the national syndication, and decides her family is more important to her. "May the power of three set you free!" Keep reading and watching!

Peace, Love, and Charmed!
