The reptile demon Saleel (Dominic Fumusa) is methodically killing leprechauns and stealing their gold, the better to spread bad luck throughout the world. When Paige (Rose McGowan) comes to the rescue of leprechaun Seamus Fitzpatrick (Mark Povinelli), the little man rewards the Charmed Ones with more good luck than they can ever possibly handle! Perhaps inevitably, this plot development leads to a musical performance by guest star Pat Benatar. ~ All Movie Guide

In this appropriately titled 100th episode of Charmed, the semi-demonic Cole (Julian McMahon) realizes that he will never be able to win back the love of Phoebe (Holly Marie Combs) so long as he is opposed by her half sister, Paige (Rose McGowan).

The plot thickens when the demons of the past rear their ugly heads, and when Paige suddenly finds herself able to penetrate Cole's alternate reality thanks to a bad cold! ~ All Movie Guide

Upon finding out that the pregnant Piper suffers from toxemia, her doctor prescribes complete rest and avoidance of all tension. This may prove difficult, inasmuch as Piper's sisters and her Whitelighter, Leo (Brian Krause), have suddenly lost all their powers -- and worse still, all magic in the world has been expunged. It is all the result of a summit meeting wherein the representatives of evil hatch a scheme to take control of Piper's unborn child -- who, as the episode ends, clearly won't stay unborn for long. On top of all this, Victor Bennett (James Read), father of Piper and Phoebe (Alyssa Milano), has a most unsettling surprise for them. ~ All Movie Guide

In trying to figure out the extent of baby Wyatt's powers -- and, eventually, to take over those powers herself -- the Crone (Grace Zabriskie) imposes the Curse of the Monkey Totem on the Charmed Ones. As a result, each girl loses one of her senses: Phoebe (Alyssa Milano) is deaf ("Hear no evil"), Piper (Holly Marie Combs) is blind ("See no evil"), and Paige (Rose McGowan) is mute ("Speak no evil"). In addition to compounding the girls' domestic, professional, and personal problems, their afflictions also leave little Wyatt defenseless -- or so it seems.
