[edit] Synopsis

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

After trying on a pair of her Grams' go-go boots, Paige finds herself transported back in time to an era of free love and free magic; and discovers Grams, a peace-loving hippie, who is on a crusade to rid the world of evil through the magical power of love, preparing for a "magical be-in" at the manor. Piper and Phoebe travel back in time to prevent Paige from changing the past and to make sure that Grams lives out her destiny to carry on the Charmed Ones' line. Meanwhile, Leo, Chris and the spirit of Grams fight to vanquish a slime-like blob demon that has surrounded the manor.

[edit] Trivia

  • The episode title is a play on words to the 1960s event Woodstock.
  • Penelope Halliwell was reportedly born on June 23, 1937 and Penny in this episode is thirty years old.
  • According to the Halliwell Family Tree, the Charmed Ones' grandfather was named Jack, not Allen. Jack could be a later husband as Grams was engaged six times and married four times.
  • Chris meets Grams in this episode.
  • The young Penny in this episode had red hair, but in the photo seen in the episode How to Make a Quilt Out of Americans we see that Penny had dark colored hair when she was younger.
  • We see that Leo, as a Whitelighter, was actually an aquaintence of Penny's in the 1960s.
  • We also see that Darryl's father, Luther Morris, was a member of the Black Panther party, but later decided to become a police officer.
  • Paige claims in this episode that she was born "in the year of the Ox" and therefore is a natural leader. If this were true, Paige would've had to have been born in either 1973 or 1985, neither of which is the case. In previous episodes, it was stated Paige's year of birth was 1977.
  • Actress Holly Marie Combs was actually pregnant and showing when this episode was taped. Hence, the use of large clothes and trick camera angles were used to hide this fact.
  • When Paige sees Grams in the past, she is doing a chakra cleanse of heselg. In "Used Karma," Paige mentions a Chakra cleanse in the Book of Shadows.
  • This is the last time we see the Charmed Ones face a warlock.
  • This is the last time we see Phoebe's levitation power on the show.
