TEXT: [Scene: Manor. Phoebe's bedroom. Phoebe's sitting on her bed folding the laundry. Cole walks in.] Cole: Hey. Guess what? Phoebe: You've come to help me fold the laundry. Cole: Uh, no. Phoebe: What good is it being a witch if I can't just twitch my nose and make the laundry fold itself. Cole: Uh, which witch can do that? Phoebe: Samantha Stevens. From Bewitched. Oh, it's only like one of my favourite television shows. Sometimes I forget you've only been human for like a month. Cole: I'm becoming more human by the day. What would you say if I became really human and... got a job. Phoebe: If that's the criteria for being human then I am in big trouble. (laughs) Cole: I'm serious. Paige said that a lawyer at legal aid quit so she kinda recommended me. Phoebe: She did? (Cole sits on the bed.) Cole: Of course, if you don't think that I should then... Phoebe: No, no. Actually, I think that's a great idea. It'll keep you busy and help you find your identity. While I lose mine. (She gets up and puts some clothes on the dressing table.) Cole: I'm sorry? Phoebe: Nothing. Cole: Tell me. Phoebe: It's just, becoming a wife. I mean, I like Samantha but I never actually wanted to become her. See, Samantha, (she sits back on the bed) she was married to a human, Darren. And Darren completely suppressed Samantha's magic, completely denied who she was. And it wasn't because he didn't love her, it was just that's the way it had to be. Cole: And this was one of your favourite shows? Phoebe: Well, not that part. It was just growing up that was my only role model for a typical marriage, so that's all I new. And he was able to meet people and leave the house
