[edit] Episode guide
Phoebe has not been receiving premonitions and seeks advice from a Gypsy fortune teller, Madame Teresa, who tells her that her work is taking up too much of her life. Theresa has a premonition, something she doesn't normally experience, and ushers Phoebe out the door without explaining. She tells another, younger Gypsy, Lydia, what she saw, and is visited by a demon, Cree, who steals her eyes and tells her that his father wants revenge. Phoebe tells her sisters what happened and, because she got a call from work, Paige goes to the Gypsy in Phoebe's place. Paige arrives to find Theresa dead.
Cree presents the stolen eyes to his father, Orin, who puts them into his empty sockets. The eyes burn themselves out in their sockets and Orin is still blind. He seems to be seeking a particular pair of eyes.
At Theresa's funeral, Phoebe bumps into Lydia and sees Lydia's death at Cree's hand. The sisters arrive in time to save her and orb her back to the manor, where Leo heals her eyes. Lydia tells the sisters about Orin and Cree and the curse that the Gypsies put on Orin, and of her niece Ava, a surgeon who does not use her magic. Piper and Leo go to the hospital and track down Ava. They try to tell her what happened to Lydia but Ava is skeptical. Ava is called away.
Back at the manor, Lydia cooks a potion with Phoebe and Paige. Lydia realizes that Phoebe is under stress and reads tea leaves for her. She says Phoebe is "out of balance", much as the Theresa had said. After reading tea leaves for Paige, Lydia realizes that Ava is in danger. Phoebe gets a premonition from the tea cup, showing Cree after Ava but the images are jumbled.
Lydia goes to the hospital, but Leo and Piper are already there. Paige and Phoebe orb in with the potion. Cree attacks Lydia again but the sisters vanquish him. Leo tries to heal Lydia but he is too late.
In surgery, Ava has a vision in which she sees Aunt Lydia on the operating table in place of a patient who has just died. Lydia speaks to Ava in Romanian. Ava tells the sisters of the vision and that it meant Lydia was dead and that Ava was in danger. With Cree vanquished, the sisters conclude that Orin himself is after Ava.
Paige, Piper and Ava go through Theresa's belongings while Phoebe returns to the manor to make more potion to vanquish Orin. They discover a cross-shaped talisman with the word Waffediyok inscribed on it. Lydia had said this word to Ava in Ava's vision. Ava explains that the Evil Eye protects her family and they all realize that this is what Orin is after.
Orin plucks Lydia's eyes from her corpse in the morgue and finds that these are the ones he's after. A medical examiner confronts him and Orin finds he is able to shoot green energy bolts from his new eyes.
The Sisters bring the talisman to the manor and Phoebe has a strong premonition of Orin's attack. In her premonition, Orin zaps Phoebe; she passes out and Leo has to heal her. In her premonition, the vanquishing potion had no effect on Orin. The sisters think Ava needs to join them in vanquishing Orin. Ava calls her ancestors using a spell from the Book of Shadows. The spell shields her, Phoebe and Paige from the Evil Eye, bouncing it back on him and vanquishing him.
