Phoebe as the queen of hell. Typecast much?
To depict Persephone, the captive bride of Hades, Prue had Phoebe lay a hand across her forehead and turn her back to Nikos, playing the god of the underworld.

Piper is cooking for the models at the photo shoot. I know her food is delicious, but I don't think people who have to wear wispy dresses want such heavy food beforehand.
Downstairs, Prue rushed into the kitchen, carrying an armful of wispy dresses. Piper was just peeking into the oven, where three loaves of honey wheat bread were baking. Then she returned to the enormous pasta salad she was concocting.

Watching the next episode of Charmed for the podcast and:
Oh Haley, does Count Roget sound like a real person to you? Grow up. It's me.

I'm supposed to believe that Piper is a devoted classicist when she's out here mixing Greek and Roman gods all willy nilly?
"Just kidding," Piper said. "So you want a set up for four couples? That's a no-brainer- the gods of Mount Olympus. You could have Zeus and Hera, and let's see, Artemis and Apollo- they were twin brother and sister gods. Then there's the world famous Venus and Mars..."

In what world is Piper's power boring? Certainly not the one where her sister has the power to SOMETIMES know what is going to happen/has already happened.
You know, Piper realized suddenly, even my power is kind of boring. Naturally I can freeze time. After all, I'm totally stagnating!

Today's reading
The cover of a Charmed tie-in novel. Soul of the Bride Back of novel. Prue's editor at 415 magazine offers her a challenge: if she takes a really fantastic photo, he'll run it on the cover. This could be Prue's big break- if she can come up with a killer concept. Then Prue gets the idea to shoot a group of models in the Halliwell's Victorian Mansion. She'll even use an antique camera to capture the style of an old time photo. But when Prue snaps the shutter, all the models collapse into a deathly slumber! To rescue the Innocents, the Charmed Ones descend into Hades, fighting underworld perils and uncovering an unholy plot. To rescue the missing models, they must match wits with the greatest of the ancient Greek gods- and one of the sisters might not be allowed to return to her mortal life.

Time freeze! But also such a reminder of how fast technology moves. By the time Dawn starts high school, Buffy will gift her a cellphone. (Probably while remembering nights like this.)
Then, relieved, she found one soggy Dollar in her hip pocket. It was pressed flat; it must have gone through the washer/ dryer a couple of times. Buffy was afraid to unwrap it, but she clutched it like the lifesaver it was. Time to phone home again.

Buffy, you don't taunt the monsters for them, you do it for yourself. And for love of the game.
"Oh Romeo, oh Romeo, about time you showed up." Buffy had no idea if any of the zombies had enough brains left to be taunted, but she'd noticed a couple of them veering off in the direction Cordelia and Augie had taken. She needed them all to follow her, without exception, if her plan was to work.

That was then, this is now
Until the zombies head rose out of the ground, quickly followed by the rest of its body. At that moment, Buffy would have gladly traded all the stakes in creation for one good minute with a surface-to-air missile launcher.

The ghost hunter comes across some teenagers having a seance and immediately assumes they're a cult set on world domination. I guess someone wasn't invited to any slumber parties in high school.

Are you sure about that, Giles?
Buffy's emotional reaction was the same as Kane's must have been too, because at that moment she hated the entity in Xander's body, loathed it with all her heart. She hissed and made a move toward Xander. "Buffy! Xander is not an enemy!" hissed Giles. "He is merely possessed!"

Hmmmmmm
"But you can't, so you'd settle for just being a normal person who can do normal things like playing baseball –" "Or having a girlfriend," said Willow, leading him on. Although she knew in advance it wouldn't do any good. "You want a girlfriend?" Xander asked, surprised. "Never mind. Tell me about your strange dream."

It's amazing how it's always famous people who show up at seances and not, like, Terry who lived up the street from here.
"I had my hopes, too. Cleopatra had intimated that she'd be back for a return engagement, and lately we'd snared a few ladies in waiting from the court of King Louie XVI of France." "Those weren't ladies," said Lora. "I myself was hoping Nijinsky, the great ballet dancer, would drop in again, though in a mood less neurotic than before."
