Episode 8.13: Repo Manor
Airdate: Winter 2006

11/23 - At Magic School , three wicked women named Phoenix , Patra and Pilar morph into the Charmed Ones and train to become them under the watchful eye of tactical demon, Savard. They have been training to master the sisters' powers and style for years but they are still missing their collective power, the Power of Three. Until they get it, they will never be able to replace the Charmed Ones. Savard and the female demons have been slaves working for the Slave King. They have escaped in order to gain enough powers to come back and destroy the King. They decide to trap the sisters in the dollhouse (toy manor replica) in the hope they will be able to channel the Power of Three into them, power that is needed to defeat the King. Billie has plastered Phoebe's room with newspaper clippings of Christy's abduction. Henry appears in the episode. Source: SpoilerFix.com

Okay, anybody else think that they might be running out of new plotlines? I think I counted atleast 3 other plots in that one episode that have been used atleast once before if not more.

[Black Eye Guy]

Yep I count three, I mean at least two of them are kinda altered, but the one about three other demons becoming the Charmed ones, is an exact same ep, I think at the start of last season, where 3 sisters steal their powers to become the new charmed ones... err, they so don't need to repeat storys, why do they do it!!

[Vilandra]

It seems like all the episodes this season have been done before...very annoying!

Phoebe, in an attempt to move on with her own life, signs a lease for a new apartment, and Paige considers moving in with Henry. However the sisters are forced to remain under the same roof when a demon shrinks them and traps them in a replica dollhouse of the Manor.

I remember an episode where a demon (or was it warlock) shrunk Phoebe when she went in an old house...I think that was season four or five though.

[Vilandra]

Yep that one was "Size Matters" from season 4. :)

[Vilandra]

Phoebe (Alyssa Milano) realizes that she must move on with her life and signs a lease for a new apartment, while Paige (Rose McGowan) considers moving in with Henry (guest star Ivan Sergei), and Piper (Holly Marie Combs) tries to maintain control after losing Leo. However, the Charmed Ones are forced to stay under the same roof-literally-when a demon kidnaps the sisters, miniaturizes them and imprisons them in a dollhouse replica of the Manor. The demon enlists the help of expert doppelgangers to channel the Power of Three and kill the Demonic Master Clan that has enslaved his demon tribe. Meanwhile, Billie (Kaley Cuoco) continues the search for her missing sister.

Derek Johansen directed the episode written by Doug E. Jones.

I really like that the sister search is becoming a continuing through the series, But I keep waiting for some huge reveal at the end of an ep, when we will get to see her sister, so we know more then the characters do, but it hasn't happened yet!
