[edit] Synopsis

With her power of premonition gone, Phoebe seeks advice from a fortune teller and discovers that a demon named Cree is stealing the eyes of Gypsies in an attempt to reverse a curse placed on his father. Meanwhile, Leo and Paige try to convince a nervous Piper that she can have her baby at home instead of at a hospital.

  • Cree: the son to the demon Orin. He continues his father's work out of revenge to those that blinded him. He can blind anyone with his heat touch and shimmer.
  • Orin: a demon who kills gypsies in order to gain their magical abilities, including The Evil Eye. He was cursed by a gypsy family with blindness. He possesses the ability to shimmer.

[edit] Allies

  • Gypsies: distant cousins to witches, gypsies are magical families who are one with nature and work for the good around them. Like witches, they record their spells and potion recipes in journal form and pass it down each generation, much like with a Book of Shadows. Gypsies are especially attuned to magic around them and are good at channeling magic and divination.

[edit] Spells

  • To Call Upon Ancestors: Nicoli gypsys stand strong beside me. Marina, Theresa, Lydia. (Repeat until evil is vanquished) Nicoli gypsys stand strong beside us. Vanquish this evil from time and space.

[edit] Trivia

  • The title of this episode is a play on words to the phrase The aye's have it!, which is uttered when a vote is taken in which people who agree to something reply with "aye", meaning yes.
  • Another title used in promotional commercials by The WB was The Gypsy's Curse.
  • Phoebe's premonition powers increase in this episode, which made her injured through her own version of astral projection.
  • The gypsies in this episode use the Evil Eye as a protection against evil.
  • When Madame Theresa is reading Phoebe's palm she doesn't ask her whether she is left or right-handed. When reading somebody's palm you are supposed to read the hand that they don't write with.
  • In the episode it is said that the gypsies speak Romanian. True Romanian gypsies, who like to be referred to as "Roma population," do not speak Romanian, but Romani.
  • When the Gypsy reads Phoebe's palm she draws lines on Phoebe's hand however when Phoebe sat down at the table the lines were already visible on her hand before they had been drawn there.
  • When Phoebe is having her advanced premonition, you see Piper, Paige and Leo talking to each other, then the camera switchs and you can see Ava too. Later, Paige says that Ava didn't appear in Phoebe's premonition.
