TEXT: [Scene: Manor. Attic. Phoebe and Paige are there. Phoebe is laying on a couch and Paige is standing in front of a pin board with all bits and pieces pinned to it.] Paige: Come on, I know we can figure this out. Phoebe: You've been saying that for three weeks now. Paige: Lady, can I get a little help over here, please? Phoebe: Okay, but you don't have to yell at me, I feel bad enough as it is. Paige: Look, it's not your fault that the demon is one step ahead of us. Phoebe: Yeah, but if I hadn't lost my powers, we would have found him by now. Paige: Well, you did, so we just have to keep doing what we're doing. Phoebe: You mean what you've been doing, which is pretty much everything around here. You're like the last sister standing. I don't know how you're doing it. Paige: I've just been taking lots of naps. Phoebe: Yeah, I've noticed. (Phoebe stands up.) You know, part of me just thinks we should let him do his thing, you know. I mean, a demon killing other demons. Is that so bad? Paige: Well, it is when we don't know who it is or why they're doing it. You know, it could be some sort of power base coming along to take us on. Phoebe: Yeah. Should we get Piper out of magic school? Paige: No, she's safe there, she stays. Phoebe: There's just no rhyme or reason to his attacks, you know. They're just wacky. Paige: My gut says he's gonna go after the Smoker demons tonight. Phoebe: Why? Paige: Because Mercury is in retrograde and that is when they surface. Phoebe: That's an interesting theory. Paige: Yeah, well, all I know is that the sooner we nail this guy, the sooner I get back
SUMMARY:
With Piper away at Magic School and Phoebe without her powers, an overworked Paige re-conjures "Mr. Right" for stress relief, but unknowingly releases his evil twin, a demon called Vincent who immediately hatches a plot to separate the sisters while sending assassins after witches. Appealing to Paige's dark side, Mr. Wrong / Vincent uses his pheromones to trick her into realizing that the only way to achieve her secret desire is to be free and use her magic without fear of consequence, eventually killing her sisters. Chris accidentally gets arrested for stealing a car to chase Vincent and Darryl will not cover. To prevent Paige from executing his plan, Phoebe goes undercover as one of Mr. Wrong's Demonatrix assassins. Paige and Phoebe try to keep Piper out of the situation, but that backfires when Paige, under Vincent's control, kidnaps her so that the Demonatrix assassins can kill her. Phoebe regains confidence in herself when she makes Mr. Right real to test a potion that will make Vincent real so he can be vanquished and infiltrates the Demonatrixes. As the Demonatrixes are about to kill a confused Piper, Phoebe saves her and together they vanquish them. They go after Vincent who is confident they cannot harm him as they do not have the potion to make him real, but Phoebe takes the chance that making Mr. Right real will turn him real too. She proves to be right and Vincent is easily vanquished which breaks his hold over Paige. Later, Leo erases the memory of the car dealership manager to save Chris from having to go to jail.
