Powers[]

  • Illusion Casting: Used by the Wizard to create an Illusion of one of Cole's bodyguards and of himself. He created illusions of a cooked chicken, toast and two women as well.

Artifacts[]

  • The Grimoire - The Grimoire is a large brown book with an unknown demonic symbol of an upside down pentagram and skull on the cover. The pages of the Grimoire are said to be blackened by its evil. Much like the Book of Shadows, the Grimoire possesses the power to protect itself from its enemies or anything Good.
  • Unnamed Wizard's Wand - a wand used by the Unnamed Wizard to channel his powers.

Notes and Trivia[]

  • Alyssa Milano is wearing the same shirt she wore in the season four premiere, "Charmed Again".
  • Phoebe discovers Cole is the Source through a premonition. While she touched Cole while he was the Source before, she was unable to get a premonition off of him because the Source protected himself. It is likely the premonition now worked because Cole's love left him vulnerable, as the Seer had warned earlier.
  • This is the fourth episode in which Phoebe is evil.
  • This is one of the few episodes where Piper, Phoebe, and Paige use all their primary and secondary powers.
  • This episode scored 4.2 million viewers.
  • In this episode, Phoebe gains Fire Throwing as a result of her pregnancy and turning evil. The same power was possessed by her past life, Russell, who also became evil.

Cultural References[]

  • The title of the episode is a reference to one of the most memorable songs of The Wizard of Oz.
  • When the Wizard asks if they have heard of any other wizards besides Merlin, Paige makes a sarcastic comment asking if Harry Potter counts.

Continuity Errors[]

  • At the beginning of the episode, when Cole and the Dark Priest walk up to the aisle, the Grimoire already lays open. However, when the shot changes, the Dark Priest opens the Grimoire.
  • After the opening credits, when Phoebe is talking to Piper and Paige, her boots are cream with heels. But when she leaves the apartment, she has black shoes.
  • Leo describes Fire Throwing as an upper-level demonic power. However it has been used by Warren witches, lower-level demons and other witches throughout the series.
