[edit] Synopsis

Hoping to lure the Charmed Ones out of hiding, Haas, a young demon wanting to take over the Underworld, uses the Alice's Adventures in Wonderland fairy tale to prey on young victims. When Billie stumbles upon his plan and tries to stop him, she becomes one of his victims. The sisters come to Billie's rescue, and realize that they can benefit from Billie's willingness and desire to fight demons. Meanwhile, Phoebe, in her new identity, decides to get to know Dex better and learns that he was a fan of the Ask Phoebe column. Surprisingly, she lands a job at the paper as Phoebe's replacement with help from Dex. Paige's traffic stop leads her to enroll at the police academy so she can still help innocent people, and Piper finds that starting over and living a normal life is not as easy as she once thought.

[edit] Trivia

  • The episode title is a play on words to the children's story Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.
  • Phoebe narrates the episode to mimic the format used in the series Sex and the City which Jason Lewis (Dex Lawson) starred in as Samantha's boyfriend.
  • The cop that Paige ends up with is the same actor (Michael McLafferty), who played Prue's boyfriend in the episode, She's a Man, Baby, a Man!.
  • This is the episode where Billie finds out who the Charmed Ones are, once they save her. But, while in her dorm, she told Paige (Jo) that she had just found out that she had these powers. And she said that the paper said that they died in this big explosion. If that's true then the paper must have said the Charmed Ones died instead of Halliwell. Or the magical community has a paper route or something. One possibility is that, as Leo said after Wyatt's birth in the episode "The Day the Magic Died", the name Halliwell is respected by good magic.
  • Billie's computer screen reads 'Scry Hard' whilist she's scrying with the crystal and GPS system after Paige leaves her dorm room.
