[edit] Trivia

  • Paige tells Henry that she is a witch in this episode.
  • When Paige is telling Henry that she is a witch, part of her hair hangs over her shoulder, however, before and after that her hair is behind her shoulder.
  • How did Phoebe know she had been replaced with a look-alike when she was put to sleep and then kept inside of the dollhouse?
  • When the demonic Phoebe teleports into the elevator, the effect used is semi-looped. The first part of her teleport starts, then the scene switches angles and it occurs again (with the same sound effect)! It's most visible around the upper right part of her hair due to light reflections.
  • When Paige orbs the Book of Shadows to her, she also orbs the fairy out of the book. The drawing of the fairy disappears from the book, however when the camera switches angles, the drawing is still there.
  • The first time the Power Switching Spell was used was in the episode "Love Hurts".
  • This episode contains plot points similar to previous episodes over the last eight years, including (but not limited to): Evil Charmed One impersonators as dealt with in "The Importance of Being Phoebe," "The Power of Three Blondes" and "Freaky Phoebe"; the dollhouse from "Scry Hard"; and episodes dealing with one of the sisters moving out such as in "PreWitched" and "Saving Private Leo".
  • The demons said they were able to recreate the sister's powers using their blood, much like in "Astral Monkey".
  • Paige's double claims to have only been impersonating her for five years, unlike the Piper and Phoebe duplicates, who have been training for eight years. This means there was originally a Prue double. But this could also mean that at one stage they replicated Prue's powers, but then somehow changed them to become Paiges as Prues powers no longer existed, as Prue is dead.
  • The score in the opening of this episode is the same music played in the background in season three's "Wrestling with Demons."
  • We see Paige's power to grow into "psychokinetic orbing" and even conjuration.
