Summary: Wyatt's impending school play brings out the competitive nature in Piper when her hand-sewn costume for Wyatt and her parenting ability are attacked by Mandi, the perfect Stepford-like mother. Unbeknownst to Piper, Mandi is a demon in disguise, befriending Wyatt so that she can kidnap him to use his powers to bring back The Source and create the perfect demon family. Meanwhile, bored with learning the basics of magic but intrigued with the idea of a Magic School, Billie uses a potion to send her and Leo to the school. Once there, they realise that the school has been taken over by demons who have kidnapped Wyatt. Knowing that Phoebe feels Dex is the one, Paige worries when she suspects he is seeing another woman, and decides to intervene.

MISTAKES/GOOFS

CHAR: Billie asks both Leo and the sisters who The Source is. But it doesn't make sense for her not to know, since she obviously knew the sisters were the Charmed Ones, and it follows logically that she would know of all the evils they've defeated over the years.
CONT: When the girls arrive at Magic School and see the resurrected Source, Paige asks how he was defeated the previous time. However, she was present each time the Source was vanquished.
CONT: In the scene where the sisters first arrive at magic school Paige asks Piper and Phoebe how they got rid of the source before; when in fact she was there with them to vanquish the source the first time.
