[edit] Synopsis
Phoebe is going through a heat wave and having vivid sexual dreams where she ends up killing her lover. Darryl notices a sting of murders connected to a dating agency and they use a spell that turns Prue into a man in order to coax out the killer. While at the dating agency, Piper sees Dan, the boy next door, has made a tape at the agency and watches it. Prue records her tape and they realize that the killer is a succubus that feeds on the testosterone of men. Phoebe is revealed to be connected to her somehow. The succubus becomes attracted to Prue and puts Prue under a spell that makes her think that she is in love with the succubus. Phoebe channels her power through the succubus to rescue Prue, sending the succubus to a fiery death.

[edit] Enemies
- Succubus: When a witch renounces all human emotion and makes a pact with darkness to protect herself from heartbreak, she becomes a succubus (a sexual predator). She seeks out powerful men, who become helpless against her magic, then feeds on their testosterone with her razor-sharp tongue. When drawn, she will come to you and burst into flames.
[edit] Spells
- To Attract and Vanquish the Succubus: Draw the symbol of the succubus upon a consecrated space. With candles lit and the target laid upon the symbol of all the succubus’ desire and intone these words: By the forces of Heaven and Hell, draw to us this woman fell. Rend from her her foul desire, that she may perish as a moth to fire.
