[Scene: Paige's apartment. Paige and Glen are lying on the bed staring out the window at the stars.]

Paige: Once upon a time, there lived a handsome prince who was about to marry a beautiful maiden. But an evil Enchantress with dark powers wanted the Prince for herself, so she could become Queen and rule the entire kingdom.

Glen: I hate her.

Paige: Really? I always kind of related to her.

Glen: Like I said, I love her. Then what happened?

Paige: Well, in order to pull off that kind of magic, the evil Enchantress had to wait for a sign that her powers were at their darkest.

Glen: A sign?

Paige: Mm-hmm. See in the stars. (She points to a pattern in the stars.) See the Prince, his sword, and the three stars that form his crown? Well, once the evil enchantress saw the sign, she locked away the beautiful maiden, and cast a spell on the unsuspecting Prince. "Bring together my Prince and me, let him fall on bended knee. I summon... I summon..." I can never remember the end of it.

Glen: Let me guess. The Prince defeats the evil Enchantress, he married the beautiful maiden, and they lived happily ever after, right?

Paige: Nah-mm. Actually, the evil Enchantress bore an heir, killed the Prince, and ruled the kingdom forever.

Glen: Well, what kind of fairy tale is that?

Paige: It's just one that kind of stayed with me for as long as I can remember. I told you I was a weird kid.

Glen: I need to get you out more, Paige.

Paige: It'd be easier if you were around more, Glen.

Glen: I'm around now. (They kiss.)

[Scene: Medieval times. A castle. A guard pushes Lady Julia inside. The evil Enchantress is standing in front of a dark window.]

Lady Julia: What is the meaning of this? How dare you summon me.

Enchantress: Forgive me for inconveniencing you at this late hour, Lady Julia. (The guard leaves.) Alas, I had no other choice. The stars have aligned.

Lady Julia: You don't frighten me, Enchantress. The stars are on the side of good, not evil. Tomorrow, my Prince and I will marry and there is nothing that you can do to stop that. He loves me, not you.

Enchantress: Dark magic can change that.

(The Enchantress holds out her hands and smoke and a gust of wind blows Lady Julia against the wall. A portcullis drops down in front of her, locking her in.)

Lady Julia: Why are you doing this?

(The Enchantress walks out of the dark and she looks exactly like Paige.)

Enchantress: Because this is my destiny. Not yours.

[Scene: Manor. Phoebe's room. Payson walks in and sits on the bed. She picks up a small gold necklace with the word 'Phoebe' on it. She walks over to the closet and grabs one of Phoebe's blouses. She puts it on over her tank top and walks out of the room, closing the door behind her.]

[Cut to the kitchen. Payson is making a cup of coffee. Piper comes in with wet hair.]

Piper: Look at me. I look like a drowned rat.

Payson: Pretend you're camping. (She hands Piper a cup of coffee.)

Piper: I hate camping and I hate instant coffee. (She takes a sip and pulls a face.)
