Phoebe is demummified due to the Spell.
After Piper drove Isis' Spirit out of Paige's body, Paige casts this spell to demummify Phoebe. At first, Isis was the only one to know this spell, but because Isis was in her body, Paige also knew this spell. After Phoebe was demummified, Piper blew up Jeric, saying he and Isis now at least were together.

Notes and Trivia
Charmed 5x10 "Y Tu Mummy Tambien" Trailer
The WB Supersunday promo
- The WB title for this episode is "The Mummy's Tomb".
- Cole has turned completely evil once again, just as Phoebe initially feared, due to the massive weight of the powers he has absorbed and her rejection.
- This is the sixth episode in which Phoebe is evil, and the third episode in which Paige is evil, although they are possessed and not evil themselves.
- When told by Cole that she has to choose between Phoebe and Paige, Piper asked Cole "How can you be so evil?" and he replied "It's a gift". This was also said in "Murphy's Luck" when Prue asked the Spirit Killer "How dare you hurt people this way?" and he answered "It's a gift".
- This is the first of two different occasions where it was stated that Phoebe was responsible for Cole's fall to insanity. The second time was in "Crimes and Witch-Demeanors" during the sisters' trial.
- Alyssa Milano learned to belly dance for this episode.
Cultural References
- Y Tu Mummy También is a spoof on the Mexican movie "Y Tu Mamá También" which translated means "And your mom too".
- Piper quotes Caroline Astor when she says, "If you've got it, then you must flaunt it".
Glitches
- Piper's hair keeps going from in front of her shoulder to behind while she is in the attic talking to Leo and Paige about Jeric.
- Leo's haircut changes from being trimmed to longer again in between scenes.
- When Piper and Paige are scrying for Phoebe, Piper is using the normal crystal pendant; when they found her, it is a different crystal.
Continuity Errors
- The Force Field protecting Piper during her fight with Cole was golden yellow, while in all previous and future instances when this power is used, the force field is blue.
