[edit] Synopsis

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

Paige almost loses her fight to save Magic School when a bored student accidentally conjures Lady Godiva and Lord Dyson, a demonic land baron who feeds off humans' repressed emotions. The Charmed Ones, with the help of Leo, must stop Lord Dyson from killing Lady Godiva before she can go back in time to complete her ride. Meanwhile, Phoebe feels that Les is incapable of writing an advice column for women. After Piper is scolded for breastfeeding in a café, Phoebe tests Les' advice by asking for his views on breastfeeding in an anonymous letter to "Ask Phoebe." Later, Phoebe, inspired by Lady Godiva, decides to ride naked through a crowded street in support of women's liberation.

To Return To One's Own Time: Several herbs are needed for this spell as well as a powerful magical being to speak the spell. A time for everything and to everything it's place. Return what has been moved through time and space.

[edit] Trivia

This episode is a play on words to the film The Blair Witch Project. A film which was similarly spoofed in the season two episode "That Old Black Magic."
The To Return to One's Own Time spell was first used in the episode That '70s Episode. However, in that episode it was proven that even two witches were not powerful enough to make the spell work. The Power of Three or a being as powerful was needed to make it successful. Maybe the boy was a firstborn of magical parents or maybe its because Paige is also in the room (a grown charmed one.)
Paige becomes head of Magic School in this episode.
Piper states that P3 is the only source of income but Phoebe is still working for the city newspaper. She is only on sabbatical, which is usually not paid.
Alyssa Milano also rode a horse nude in the sitcom Spin City.
Holly Marie Combs breaks the television fourth wall during this episode. When Lady Godiva removes her clothes in the mansion, Piper exclaims "Woman, Keep Your Clothes On. This is a family show. Really!"
