This episode begins at a club with a girl dancing very sexily on stage on a cage I assumed it was a strip club, but it's much classier because she's a singer. Sorry girl. I had to Google her and it was a very confusing search because I was trying to avoid spoilers. The song is by Kimberly Cole but she is not acting in the episode, which is what I initially thought, because I'm stupid and identifying characters as a Snow is the hardest fucking thing. (L: Girl, I'm always an email away.)
Anyway, the character is Rayna Russell and she is singing a song called Superstar in a diamond bra with on-stage fireworks and other snazzy pop star trappings. I was just about to say something about how dangerous those fireworks seem when ONE OF HER DANCERS CAUGHT ON FIRE. Shit. Rayna is rushed off stage.
Stephanie: We start the episode 3 months ago. A group of scared dolls are being ushered into their sleeping pods. They didn’t get to shower before bed, so clearly this is a serious situation.
Lorraine: Who knows what those dolls were doing earlier too. Serious and possibly smelly.
Stephanie: Out in the lobby area, Dominic is yelling orders to his SWAT looking security team. He tells them to secure the exits and shoot people in the head twice. (L: Double tap? ZOMBIES.) As the camera spins around all crazy-like, we see that there are dead bodies strewn out on the floor.

First thing's first: Sweeney and I knew we wanted to do this quite a while ago. All the usual things stopped us from getting to it right, right away: time, naps, time, trying to pay our bills with real people money, adulthood and time. When we met up in Paris in August, we discussed this project (amongst many others) and quickly decided that the best way to make it a reality was to invite another person to blog with us.
We've announced this before, but please officially welcome our newest Snark Lady, Stephanie!
Stephanie: Hello, friends!
Lor: Stephanie and I have seen the show before (though I think I quit before the end, as I do, and have definitely never rewatched). Sweeney is our resident Snow.

We open with the wonderful credits which go on for a half hour because I'm still watching them over and over. (Ha ha. JK. That would be weird...)
Credits over, the scene picks up where we left off last time. Jessica is still feeling up Luke's unbreakable pecs and abs, but this time, in a more sexual manner. She tears off his shirt (M: how is he even getting home now JESSICA) and they start aggressively making out. The pants are quickly unzipped and they have super powered sex against a wall.
Sadly, they're interrupted when the male half of the Creepy Twins peeks in. Jess slams the door in his face.

Previously: Another Whitelighter in town, briefly. — Wrestling with Demons Marines: Dearest readers: what the EFF did I just watch? Stephanie: Do you watch the the full episode before recapping, or...
We start straight away with the credits, which I love. Maybe I'm just determined to love this. YAY CREDITS.
Stephanie: I loved them too. The colors! The music! I may have gone back to watch them again... twice.
Mari: To emphasize the dark!Veronica Mars (S: My first thought too.) vibe I'm getting right off the bat, the episode starts with Jessica Jones's voiceover: New York may be the city that never sleeps, but it sure does sleep around. We see a man and a woman sneaking down Adultery Alley.

P^3. White girl dancing. Piper and Phoebe are in the back room. Piper is made uncomfortable by a guy who is just staring at her. Phoebe thinks it's clearly flirtatious and the guy looks cute and innocent. For some reason, Piper has to remind Phoebe that she has a serious boyfriend. As if 73% of all the problems around here aren't Piper and her serious boyfriend.
Prue walks in with a problem of her own: she's got a song stuck in her head, but she doesn't know what it is.

The episode begins with Cole and Phoebe kissing in bed, so I already don't like it. Phoebe says that she feels like Cole pulls away whenever they get close, and he responds by literally pulling away and turning from her. (M: Wow. Phoebe is good at picking up on these things.) Phoebe presses a bit more for some truth and Cole transforms into his demon form and attacks her while going "RAWRRR." Just kidding! It’s a nightmare.
Prue is in the kitchen trying to telekinesis a fork off the counter. We hear the tinkle that usually follows her powers, but the fork won't move. Phoebe walks in having some kind of a fashion meltdown, but since her Pocahontas-inspired handkerchief top is no worse than 99% of what she's always wearing, IDK what the emergency is. When Phoebe realizes that Prue can't move the fork, she worriedly asks if Prue's lost her powers. Prue says you can't lose what you never had and disappears.
We open at P^3 where Phoebe is sending over drinks to one of Prue's Generic Dates. Piper comes over to inquire if he's been stood up since Prue’s caught up in a demon research obsession..
Phoebe changes the subject to Piper's love life. Piper admits that her and Leo haven't been sleeping together because Leo keeps being orbed out whenever they get frisky. Does this mean Leo appears before The Powers That Be totally naked or can he redirect the orb-travel to a closet first?

Manor. It's Halloween. Piper is Glinda the Good Witch, Prue is something that involves glitter, and Phoebe is Elvira. Piper says she's got a new attitude and she's determined to celebrate the witches' holiday with enthusiasm. Phoebe objects to the portrayal of witches in popular culture and... I can't. Too on the nose.
Piper is tending to the bar at P^3 when Leo comes in. He needs to talk with her, but first they have to get their no-chemistry kissing on. When they break away, Leo says that he came to say goodbye because The Powers That Be won't ever let them be together and all the usual nonsense we’ve been over a zillion times. His voice gets all dream-echoey and Piper can't hear what he's saying anymore even though it still sounds pretty clear to me. He backs away, mouths, "I love you," and tinkles away. It's a bit early for my gag-reflex to kick in, but there it is.
Piper is waiting in a salon, watching two women under hair dryers flip through bridal magazines. She looks down at the table where there is a pile of magazines there too. She picks one up, frustratedly puts it down, and decides to walk out on her hair appointment? Like, did she change her mind about her dirty hair? Was she just sitting there to spy on women reading bridal magazines? I don't really know.
Piper gets into a elevator and two women walk in and excitedly show off their engagement rings.
