Exit Strategy

With Cole still being held captive in the Underworld by The Brotherhood, Phoebe becomes worried and even spends a night at the mausoleum, hoping to hear from him. Piper and Leo plan their honeymoon and prepare to get Leo a passport, but the plans are put on hold when Piper blows up a part of the Passport Office with her new powers. Meanwhile, Prue reassures Phoebe that Cole is alive and persuades her to go to the Manor. Cole returns to Phoebe and tells her he has been assigned to steal two parts of an amulet from witches for the Brotherhood. The head of the Brotherhood, Raynor, plans to turn Cole evil again, while holding his father's soul as leverage. Meanwhile, Piper's new magical ability to explode objects and people at will (Molecular Combustion) which should it become reliable, much augmenting the Charmed Ones magical resources for struggles to come, currently misfires accidentally and haphazardly making it even harder to function now as she can't freeze anyone reliably either, least she blast them to smithereens by accident. Ultimately Cole kills the witch and in a battle, Piper vanquishes Tarkin with her new power, although she meant to freeze him. Phoebe rejects Cole and spills the power-stripping potion and he later vanquishes Raynor who says Cole is now truly evil.
