• This episode was incredibly asinine due to several unrealistic plots, which do not correspond even if you account for the supernatural mechanics of this show. Paige receiving her police uniform, Phoebe getting her old job back under her new alias because Dex recommended her to Elise, Piper's whining about a normal life that she finally has and Leo getting locked out of the Manor with his elder son were all stupid and a waste of time in what could have been a decent episode had Brad Kern focused more on the demonic plotting. Additionally, this episode exhibits how much of a braggart Brad Kern is, based on this sudden use of (incorrect) grammatical rules and excessively wordy dialogue.
