Spells
To Find the Place of Injury
This spell was used by Phoebe to take her to Paige. It brought her to the Callaway Family, because Paige was injured there.
- Lead me back from whence this came,
- Help me help my sister's pain.
To Call for a Spirit
The Halliwell Sisters, Leo, the Callaways and the Montanas combined their magic to call for the spirit who attacked them before.
- Unknown spirit, we call to thee,
- Those who wish to set you free.
- Cross on over, so we may help.
- Come to us. Reveal yourself.
To Block the Power of Empathy
Phoebe cast this spell, hoping it would block her empathy to feel her sisters' emotions, but it didn't work.
- In the name of the Halliwell line,
- Bar my sisters from this power of mine.
Potions
- Richard gave Paige a potion to make her feel better and speed up the healing process.
- Richard's mother was carrying a platter filled with potion bottles. It would later be used by the Montanas to attack the Callaways.
- Richard's brother took another one from the living room. They would later be used in the battle as well.
To Identify the Source of an Injury
A potion revealing Ectoplasm
Piper made this potion to see if Paige really was hit by an Energy Ball. The potion got lighter, which means she was hit by a Plasma Ball.
- The Potion Sorcerer made a potion to block empathy, so an empath wouldn't be able to feel the emotions of the user of this potion.
Powers

- Levitation: Used by Phoebe whilst meditating.
- Empathy: Used by Phoebe to feel Piper, Paige, Olivia, Chris and Leo's emotions. She also felt that Piper's date liked her. Later on, she got overwhelmed by all the emotions of the Callaway and Montana family.

- Telekinetic Orbing: Used by Paige to orb an apple into Phoebe's mouth.
- Invisibility: Used by Leo to be invisible while spying on Chris.

- Intangibility: As a ghost, Olivia Callaway was intangible.
- Floating: Used by Olivia to float (as a ghost).

- Possession: Used by Olivia Callaway to possess Paige.
- Molecular Combustion: Used by Piper to blow up an Energy Ball and the lid of the crypt. She also blew up a Plasma Ball.

Notes and Trivia
Love's a Witch WB Trailer
- This episode title is a play on the phrase "Love's (or Life's) a bitch".
- This episode has the same plot as "Romeo and Juliet". Two families have a feud. Except, in Charmed, only one of the romantic couple dies. The family names are also similar: Montana/Montague and Callaway/Capulet. In Innocents Lost, Romeo and Juliet appear.
- When Paige orbs an apple into Phoebe's mouth, you can see Holly attempting not to laugh and then starts to walk off when Alyssa bites the apple. The particular scene wasn't scripted, but the writers decided to leave it in.
- The empathy sound effect has been shortened in this episode.
- This is the tenth episode to have the word 'witch' in the title.
- The café where Piper has a date is the same as Quake and will later appear again as Café Le Blue in "Spin City".
- Balthazar Getty makes his first appearance as Richard Montana. He will be Paige's first long term love interest on the show. All her previous boyfriends never lasted longer than two episodes.
- Richard said that Paige is not a Muse or Whitelighter, but a Witch like him. She is actually Half-Whitelighter.
- Piper explodes a magic projectile for the first time.
- On the first edition of the Season 6 DVDs, this episode was actually missing (despite being listed on the menu). A recall was issued where consumers could trade in their 'bad copy' to get one with the episode intact.
Glitches
- Chris's hairstyle changes between scenes. When he first orbs into the manor, his hair is in a side parting, but when he joins the sisters in the kitchen, he has his normal hairstyle.
