Body Swapping Potion[]

This potion required many ingredients, including powdered toadstool, but most of them were not mentioned in the episode. Paige accidentally made it, causing her and Phoebe to switch bodies.

Say these words
I want to be (name of person you want to be).
To undo the effects of the potion, all you have to say:
I want to be me again.

Quotes[]

Piper: Okay. After mixing your potions, what's the best method to preserve unused sea slugs for future use? A) Pickle them, B) Sugar them, C) Smoke them, D) Freeze dry them.
Paige: Well now, you see, if I had extra sea slugs, I'd let those little suckers go right on back into the ocean.

Piper: Paige, don't make me the wicked witch of the northwest. I didn't ask for this big sister gig and frankly, it sucks. But since I'm on a roll, you should get rid of that lollipop habit because it's going to rot your teeth.

Paige: Next up, some powered toadstool. Bam! Let's kick it up one more notch.
Leo: Whoa, what are you doing?
Paige: You know, just preparing for the Source.
Leo: Oh, is he coming over for dinner?

Mason: He said that if he doesn't hurry up and make you a social worker, you'll probably quit and start your own agency. That or end up in jail. He wasn't sure which.

Cole: Well, for one thing you suck at levitating.

Piper: I smell something witchy.

Paige: My God, what did you have for dinner?
Phoebe: Kung Pao Chicken. Sorry.

Yen Lo: Oh, it's you... black belt Barbie.
Phoebe: You're going to be sorry you said that. (She levitates and kicks Yen-Lo up to a rocky mountain. He drops his sword.)

Leo: Well, here comes your personal trainer from hell.
Piper: Literally.

Cole: Wait a minute. Who are you? (Phoebe kisses him.) Oh, I know... Paige.
Phoebe: Uh! (She laughs a little.) So what's on our training schedule for today? Light sabers?
Cole: Actually, I was thinking maybe we could have a private picnic of our own.
