00:28Excuse me,
00:29but I'm getting ready to close now.
00:31Oh, I'm sorry. I thought that you were open till when?
00:34Normally I am, but not on the eve of Friday the 13th.
00:37In fact, I kind of want to be closed by midnight.
00:39All right, well, we won't be much longer, will we, Phoebes?
00:42Okay, okay. So...
00:45Input?
00:46It's nice. Let's go.
00:47It's nice? That's it?
00:48Maybe I should look for another one.
00:50Look, Phoebe, the woman wants to close.
00:52I know, I know, but choosing the right good luck charm
00:54is a very big decision.
00:56If they all bring good luck,
00:57what's the worst that can happen if you choose the wrong one?
01:01All right, you know, this is why I like shopping with Piper.
01:06Okay, do you want me to put this on Piper's order?
01:08Uh, no, I'll pay separately.
01:09Cash or charge?
01:10Uh, will you put it on a credit card for me?
01:12I will pay you back, you know, tomorrow.
01:14I have a job interview and...
01:16And the good luck charm is going to help you get the job.
01:20How much?
01:21$25.50 plus tax.
01:22Okay.
01:24Oh, but you get 10% off if you sign the mailing list.
01:27See? Good luck already.
01:34If you're interested, we're having a Wicca gathering
01:36for the spring equinox.
01:38What makes you think that we would be interested?
01:41Most witches are.
01:44We never said that we were witches.
01:50You think she knows?
01:52How could she?
02:05Can you please hurry?
02:07Is there a problem?
02:09I told you, I just, I, I wanted to be closed before midnight.
02:11Wow, you really take this Friday the 13th stuff seriously.
02:15Yeah, you should too, especially this one.
02:17And why is that?
02:18Because once every 1,300 years, there's a universal convergence
02:21of negative energy on Friday the 13th.
02:24And this is the year.
02:26Of course it is.
02:30And this is the year.
02:31Did you hear that?
02:33The clock struck 13.
02:36It's starting already.
02:45Good night, Tangella.
02:47I don't know.
03:29Sorry, we're closed.
03:34I said we're closed.
03:43Not to me, witch.
03:46Oh, my God.
03:52Ambulance don't work with this demon.
04:03The greatest fear is being buried alive in an earthquake.
04:22Oh, you can't run, you're frozen!
04:31In fear!
04:33Oh, my God!
04:34Oh!
04:35Go!
04:38Go!
04:40Go!
05:10I don't know.
05:49I don't know.
06:06I don't know.
06:09I don't know.
06:11I don't know.
06:12I don't know.
06:20I don't know.
06:35I don't know.
06:39I don't know.
06:41I don't know.
06:44I don't know.
07:05I don't know.
07:07I don't know.
07:26I don't know.
07:32I don't know.
07:33I don't know.
07:36I don't know.
07:39Oh, that outfit looks great on you.
07:42Thank you for giving it to me.
07:44Wait, you gave her that outfit?
07:46Yeah, it was an early birthday present.
07:48For the next three years.
07:49Are you feeling okay?
07:51I am fine.
07:53In fact, I had a wonderful dream about mom.
07:56Hmm.
07:57Oh, how great.
07:58What about?
07:59Well, um, I was a little kid, like four or five, and I was reaching up holding her hand.
08:06And she was taking me someplace.
08:09I don't know where, but it felt so safe.
08:12I wish I had dreams like that.
08:14Mom would have to knock before she came into your dreams.
08:18Ooh.
08:21What are you doing?
08:23You have to cover your mouth when you yawn, or you might let the devil in.
08:28Especially on Friday the 13th.
08:31Is that amulet one of the things that we picked up for you last night?
08:34Yes.
08:35And this.
08:37And these.
08:38We're having a superstition-themed fundraiser at the restaurant today.
08:42I'm going to need all the help I can get.
08:44Don't you think that you're overdoing it just a little bit?
08:46With all the warlocks and demons we've seen?
08:48I don't think so.
08:49Piper, those things are real.
08:52Okay, superstitions are like old wives' tales invented to explain somebody's misfortune.
08:58Statistics show more bad things happen on Friday the 13th than any other day.
09:01I met Jeremy on Friday the 13th.
09:03Really?
09:04Yes.
09:04And he tried to kill me.
09:06Afterwards, I found out there's a superstition.
09:08That any relationship started on Friday the 13th is doomed.
09:12More bad things happen on Friday the 13th because people put energy into believing bad things will happen.
09:18Fabes.
09:19Actually, I prefer the upside of superstition.
09:22Good fortune, which is what I hope this little honey brings me in my job interview with the real estate
09:27agency.
09:28Will you give me a lift?
09:29I'm running late.
09:29Sure.
09:31Okay.
09:32Well, have a great day, Prue.
09:34I love you.
09:35Yeah, me too.
09:43I wonder if she knows she does that.
09:50Oh, hey, Andy.
09:52Hey, Prue in?
09:53Uh, Prue, there's a policeman here to see you.
09:55See you later, Andy.
09:56We're running late.
10:03So, this must be bad news.
10:05Why would you say that?
10:06It's a little early for a social call.
10:09You're right.
10:10We've had three suspicious deaths since midnight.
10:12All single females, all under 30.
10:16One was a bookstore owner.
10:17Credit card company's records show you were her last customer.
10:21Oh, my God.
10:23You remember anything out of the ordinary?
10:24Suspicious characters hanging around?
10:27No, Phoebe and I were the only ones in there.
10:29In fact, she was locking up when we left.
10:31Was the place an order?
10:33Yeah, why?
10:34Well, when we found her, her body was half buried in debris.
10:37But the coroner said it wasn't her injuries that killed her.
10:40It was a heart attack.
10:41A heart attack?
10:43Yeah, her hair had turned shock white.
10:44Her face was contorted and teared, just like all the others.
10:48If I didn't know any better, I'd say they were literally scared to death.
10:54You visit occult bookstores at midnight often?
10:58No, of course not.
11:00Phoebe needed a good luck charm for her job interview today.
11:04It was very last minute.
11:05These killings look like some weird ritualistic thing.
11:09The victims all had ties to the occult.
11:13You might consider shopping somewhere else.
11:17Meaning?
11:18Just be careful.
11:27Friday the 13th.
11:30Friday the 13th.
11:34The demon of fear appears once every 1300 years on Friday the 13th.
11:40He feeds on the fears of witches for his survival.
11:47Mom's handwriting.
11:55Okay, we need a table for taking the tickets.
11:58Okay.
12:04Who's the guy?
12:06Lucas Devane.
12:07He's chairing the fundraiser for the Children's Hospital.
12:10Oh, right.
12:11I saw his picture in a magazine.
12:13Wasn't he named one of the Bay Area's most eligible bachelors?
12:16Don't rub it in.
12:17Hey, you're the one who's letting a silly superstition run your life.
12:22Is he still looking over here?
12:25Yeah.
12:27He's undressing you with his mind, and he's down to white cotton.
12:32I haven't worn white cotton since high school.
12:34Ho!
12:35Whoa!
12:37Humor me.
12:39Uh, so sorry I had to rush you off the phone.
12:42What's with the demon of fear?
12:44Well, I found a page about him in the Book of Shadows in Mom's handwriting.
12:48Mom?
12:49Are you sure?
12:50Yeah, I'm sure.
12:51I checked it against the handwriting on the back of the spirit board.
12:55Wow, this is the first time we've found anything Mom's written in the book.
12:59Well, she must have known that this demon would appear in our lifetime, and she wanted to warn us against
13:03him.
13:04I don't like the sound of that.
13:05Well, if he can kill 13 unmarried witches before midnight, he'll be freed from the underworld to wreak his terror
13:12every single day.
13:14Unmarried, like being single doesn't have enough problems.
13:18So how can we stop him?
13:19I don't know.
13:20But he does kill by turning a witch's greatest fear against her.
13:24Meaning?
13:25The book doesn't say.
13:27But Mom wrote that in the face of our greatest fear, our powers are paralyzed.
13:32Wait a minute.
13:33We're on the most wanted list, and we're defenseless.
13:37Didn't Mom say anything about how to get rid of him?
13:39Just to release our fear.
13:41How do we do that?
13:43Don't know.
13:43That's all she wrote.
13:46Look, I know that you're afraid of flying.
13:49It's not really a fear.
13:51I just prefer buses.
13:53Well, as long as you stay in a crowded restaurant, you'll be fine.
13:56And since Phoebe's afraid of being trapped in an elevator, I'll tell her to take the stairs.
14:02And you'll stay away from pools.
14:06Ever since Mom drowned, you've been terrified of the water.
14:10That's why you never took swimming lessons with us.
14:13We've always known that was the reason.
14:15It's okay.
14:16Yeah, well, don't worry about me.
14:18I'll be fine.
14:19I gotta go.
14:20Call me when you get to Buckland's.
14:23I'm not going to Buckland's.
14:25Mom warned us, but there are others.
14:29We don't know any other witches.
14:30No.
14:31See, Tangella gave me this flyer for a Wicca gathering.
14:34And there's a woman named Zoe listed as a contact.
14:37I'm hoping that she can help.
14:38So just call Phoebs and let him know what's up, okay?
14:40Okay.
14:42Okay.
14:43I love you.
14:44Yep.
14:49As you can see, we're a small firm, but we built a very successful business.
14:53Oh, well, size doesn't matter to me.
14:56What does excite me, though, is the chance to work with a successful woman.
15:00I mean, if I want to be a success, who better to learn from, right?
15:03Well, I like that.
15:05I've heard all I need to hear.
15:07When can you start?
15:09Are you serious?
15:10I got the job?
15:12I can spot talent when I see it.
15:14Um, can you start today?
15:16Uh, yeah.
15:17Yes.
15:17Of course.
15:20Hi, honey.
15:21Give me a second.
15:26Here are the keys.
15:28Louise is out of town.
15:29I've got...
15:32I'll be in Calistoga for the day, so all you have to do is answer the phones.
15:36Taking a romantic midweek break?
15:38Hmm.
15:39Well, yeah.
15:40Um, which reminds me.
15:42There is one special task I'll need you to handle from time to time.
15:46If my husband calls, I'll need you to cover for me.
15:54Oh, you're right.
15:56Uh...
15:57Uh...
15:58Sure.
15:59Our little secret.
16:00Oh, of course!
16:03Um...
16:04You have my patron number, so have fun.
16:06Um...
16:07Okay.
16:12You too.
16:38I thought you might come.
16:43There's nothing for you here.
16:46Oh, you couldn't be more wrong, witch.
16:51You're alone.
16:52That's all I need.
16:54You have no power over me.
16:57I have evolved to a place where I have released all mortal fears.
17:03My inner strength will destroy you.
17:20You didn't release your fear of fire.
17:23You only repressed it.
17:26No!
17:29Please!
17:30Save it!
17:32For another lifetime!
17:35You're frozen!
17:37In fear!
17:38Oh!
17:40Do what?
17:45Jaqndhe.
17:46Oh!
17:53I'm sorry!
18:02mafia!
18:03Here!
18:18The coroner says there are no burn marks on the body.
18:21She didn't die of smoke inhalation.
18:23Her heart gave out just like the others.
18:25I can't believe you're wearing the cereal shoes again.
18:29They're my good luck charm.
18:30They're embarrassing.
18:32This is the fifth woman with ties to the occult that's been found dead since midnight.
18:36Now tell me it's not the work of some cereal nutcase.
18:39I can't, but it still doesn't mean those shoes aren't embarrassing.
18:43Inspector, can you look at this?
18:58Dorman keeps a visitor sign-in log.
19:01Want to guess who the last person was to see the victim?
19:04I'm going to guess the killer.
19:06Cool.
19:10What did you tell Andy?
19:12I didn't talk to Andy.
19:13I didn't want him to know that I was anywhere near there.
19:15So I called 911 and I left.
19:18Are you sure you're okay?
19:20Yeah, it's just that I can't get her face out of my mind.
19:23You know, there was so much fear.
19:25And her hair was pure white.
19:27The terror that she must have felt.
19:28It's just...
19:29Okay.
19:29I'm scared enough.
19:31Uh, so now what?
19:33We avoid any place he could use to terrorize us.
19:36And what about all the other witches?
19:37Well, I took Zoe's Day Runner.
19:39Some of the names in it have got to be witches.
19:40I'll start making phone calls.
19:43Oh, oh, quick.
19:45Throw some over your shoulder.
19:46Don't be ridiculous.
19:48It's bad luck.
19:48You could be attacked by evil spirits.
19:51Piper.
19:53We have been attacked by plenty of evil spirits and they had nothing to do with salt.
19:57And considering our powers, I can't believe that you want to rely on this for our protection.
20:02My feeling is you can never be too rich or too safe.
20:05Oh, look.
20:05A ladybug.
20:07Is that bad luck?
20:08No.
20:09Actually, Graham's once told me that whatever direction it flies in, you can find your ideal
20:14mate.
20:15We gotta try it.
20:16Ready?
20:25Oh.
20:26So, does a positive superstition cancel out a negative one?
20:30I don't know.
20:31Wait, what's going on?
20:32That guy has been trying to talk to Piper all day.
20:35And she has been avoiding him because she just didn't...
20:39Oh, no.
20:41You should have thrown this...
20:42You know what, Piper, don't even say it.
20:44The salt.
20:45I'm going hard to change.
20:47Okay.
20:47Be careful.
20:48I love you.
20:49Yeah.
20:53All right, so she can't say it.
20:55Maybe she's afraid it'll make her look too vulnerable.
20:59Ever since Mom died, you know, she has to be the strong one to take care of us and everything.
21:03It's probably just all part of that.
21:05Maybe.
21:06Hey, I gotta get back to work.
21:08How's the new job?
21:09Great, except my new boss wants me to lie to her husband about an affair that she's been having.
21:15Oh, nice.
21:16What are you gonna do?
21:17I don't know.
21:18I'm just hoping it never comes up.
21:20Hey, good luck.
21:27How's it going?
21:28Oh, good.
21:31Listen, Tom, we've been working so well together on this fundraiser, I was wondering if you'd
21:36want to get dinner after it's over.
21:38Uh, I should probably, I should probably check my schedule.
21:44You, uh, don't know if you're free tonight.
21:47Well, um...
21:52Dinner would be great.
21:55Great.
22:04Okay.
22:05Heads, I tell them the truth.
22:07Tails, I lie.
22:17Huh, that helped a lot.
22:24Oh.
22:25Hold on, please.
22:31Uh, no one's in.
22:37Call back later.
22:50We're not in.
22:51You know what to do.
22:53Prue, it's Phoebe.
22:54Pick up.
22:55Prue, are you there?
22:56Pick up.
22:57Hello?
22:58Prue, I just had a premonition.
22:59You could be in trouble.
23:01Are you there?
23:02Prue, are you there?
23:04Hello?
23:05Prue, pick up.
23:09Pick up.
23:36Come on.
23:41Your greatest fear is drowning.
23:45Thank you for making it so easy.
23:55That's right.
23:57Feed me your fear.
24:18Your powers are frozen by your fear.
24:33I wish I could think of a logical reason to explain why Prue's involved in this.
24:37You mean this time or every other time?
24:46Look out.
24:49Prue?
24:56Prue?
25:00Prue?
25:07You okay?
25:10I don't know.
25:18I'll wait for you downstairs.
25:19I'll wait for you downstairs.
26:13I'll wait for you downstairs.
26:19or already dead dead so you called 9-1-1 why didn't you leave your name why'd you just duck
26:27out
26:27because i wanted to avoid this i knew that you would suspect me of being involved and i'm not
26:33prue don't you think it's a little coincidental you being one step ahead of death twice in one
26:37day what exactly are you implying proof you were in my shoes what would you think first of all
26:42nobody should be in those shoes but if i were i would never think that you had anything to do

36:53sending out negative vibes why well there's the superstition that any relationship started on
37:01friday the 13th is doomed so i was determined to avoid you but then there's another superstition
37:06about finding your ideal mate wait a minute um you were gonna reject me because of a superstition but
37:15then decided i was worth going out with only because of another superstition
