Paige finally embraces her Whitelighter heritage when she is assigned her first charge - who happens to be a man with a past that we're all too familiar with. Spending his life as a disoriented drunk, Samuel Matthews has a destiny greater than he knows, and with the proper guidance he can find his way back to that path. Of course, Paige isn't aware at first that he is a former Whitelighter - and, in fact, her biological father.

When Piper and Phoebe recognize their mother's guardian and he recognizes the sisters, chaos ensues and he leads them on a wild goose chase as they try to both reunite father and daughter and protect Sam from a conniving Darklighter named Ronan who is out to kill the old man...

i liked this episode. It was nice for Paige to finally meet Sam.

And the cole trying to get himself vanquished just tied in so well and it was such a good plan!!! I liked Piper's comment too: "Good or evil, Cole is usually clever!" And with the avatars there as well - slightly mysterious not knowing quite what's going on - adds even more to the drama.

It's nice to see the extent of power Piper's baby has- do you reckon embryological Paige could do the same thing??

but how come Cole is indestructible? When did that happen?

this was a good ep and I liked seeing Sam again. Cole's attempt at being vanquished was good to and I am a little confused how he managed to become indestructable. my guess is that he has too many powers now for good or evil.

 

[Maria8475]

yeah that's probably what it is.

Spoiler

but if he's really indestructible - it'll be interesting to see how they manage to kill him off
