Ethan: Well Gwen� what can you tell me about Theresa?

Gwen: Theresa who? I don�t know what you are talking about. (Acting nervously as she bites her lip)

Ethan: First I find a picture of her in your closet 2 months ago and you act as if she doesn�t exist and then last week when we went to the market to get your decorations, I see a name and picture in this magazine, called Geneva�s Wardrobe. What�s going on?

Gwen: Ethan. I really can�t tell you. I don�t know who she is. I think she is one of Qlinn�s old girlfriend�s. Yeah. That�s it.

Ethan: Gwen. I know you are lying to me. But I�m not going to ask any more questions. I�ll be back. (Grabbing his coat)

Gwen: Where are you going?

Ethan: I�m going to get some fresh air. I�ll be back in time for your party at 8:00.

Gwen: Okay. Don�t catch a cold.

Ethan: I won�t. (Ethan leaves as Gwen watches)

Gwen: I hate lying to you Ethan. Truly I do.

(Qlinn comes in)

Qlinn: You wouldn�t feel bad about lying to him if you�d just tell him about Theresa.

Gwen: Qlinn! Where were you all day?

Qlinn: I went to go see somebody. But they weren�t home. So I went to Dairy Queen and ate lunch. Then I went back to his house and the lights were all on, but no one answered the door so I came home.

Gwen: I thought you were banned from Dairy Queen after that fight you got into with Noah Bennett. And whom did you visit?

Qlinn: One. I went to the Dairy Queen in New Harmony, not the one in Castleton. And Two. It�s none of your business who I went to visit.

Gwen: Fine. Oh. Don�t forget! You better be here tonight to help me keep Theresa away from Ethan.

Qlinn: I can�t. I�m going to someone else�s party.

Gwen: No! I don�t think so! This is your entire fault that Theresa and Noah are coming tonight. You invited them!

Qlinn: Sorry. I have other plans.

Gwen: Qlinn! Please!

Qlinn: Okay. I�ll stay for the first half hour but after that I have to leave.

Gwen: Good. Don�t forget� Theresa still thinks that she once was pregnant with your baby. And don�t forget that I told her that you got me pregnant also.

Qlinn: Yeah. Okay.

Gwen: Well. The party is in 2 hours. I better go get ready.

Qlinn: (As Gwen leaves) Gwen� she thinks that this is all some kind of fairytale. But it isn�t. Theresa really was pregnant with my son. I better get ready.

(He goes upstairs)

Meanwhile in New Harmony � New Harmony Hospital

(Doctor Hank Bennett and Police Chief Luis Lopez-Fitzgerald are waiting outside Carrie�s room) (Sheridan is also with them)

Sheridan: Who do you think could have given Carrie those drugs?

Luis: I don�t know. But once I find out, I�ll have to place an arrest.

Sheridan: So� you aren�t going to arrest Carrie.

Luis: No. She will be given a fine though. Whoever gave her that cocaine probably doesn�t live that far from here. We�ll just have to ask her tomorrow when she wakes up.

Hank: Um� I�m going to go check up on Carrie. (Hank goes into Carrie�s room)

Sheridan: Can we go home now, Luis.
Luis: Actually. I have some paper work to get done at the office. I�ll give you a ride home on the way to the police station.

Sheridan: Okay.

(They Both Leave)

Hank: Carrie� If you know what�s good for you, you better not tell anyone that I gave you that cocaine. If you do tell someone� (Holding a needle) I�ll inject this penicillin in your blood stream. And trust me� you don�t want that. As your doctor I know that you are highly allergic to it. And that it can kill you.

Hank: Sleep tight!

(He leaves)

(Carrie starts to wake up)

Carrie: Oh. Where am I?

(She notices a notebook paper in her hand)

Carrie: Oh! (Laughing) I forgot about this! (Remembering what Tabitha told her)

Carrie: There is no way I�m staying in this hospital. I�ve got to get those powers from Qlinn! (She gut's her clothes and stuff back on and rushes out of the hospital)

Meanwhile at the Old Harmony Lighthouse

Tabitha: This is great! Any minute now, Carrie will be a witch. All she has to do is get her brother�s powers. And then she will help me get my powers back from Hecuba�s daughter� who now is in Jessica Bennett�s body. I can�t wait to get my powers back Tim Tim.

Timmy: There is just one thing I don�t understand.

Tabitha: What?

Timmy: I thought evil was chased out of Harmony 4 years ago. How and who let them back in?

Tabitha: Kay Bennett of course.

Timmy: How did she do it?

Tabitha: When she first opened the spell book last week to cover up the fact that she and Miguel killed Charity.

Timmy: But I thought Jessica said that it was really Grace Bennett in Charity�s body the night they killed her.

Tabitha: It was, Timmy. They somehow traded souls for that night. Charity was afraid of something that she saw in a premonition, and they traded souls. How, I don�t know. But they did.

Timmy: So Charity was really in Grace�s body.

Tabitha: I know. And the old woman just croaked not to long ago.

Timmy: Poor Charity.

Tabitha: Poor Tabitha is more like it. After 6 years! I�ll have my powers back.

Timmy: I know. (Looking sad, he walks over to a window and looks up into the sky)

Tabitha: What�s wrong Timmy?

Timmy: I was hoping that you would give being good a chance.

Tabitha: Timmy. We went over this before! I�m on the dark side! Nothing will ever make me turn good. Nothing.

(Antonio walks in)

Antonio: Why would it? You are on my side aren�t you?

Tabitha: Yes. Of course I am.

Antonio: I�m back from my vacation. Are Theresa and Noah gone?

Tabitha: Yes. Your evil one.

Antonio: Good. Now it�s time to get to work. Now that Hecuba�s daughter had her baby. She is planning to make it the New Evil One. We have to stop her.

Tabitha: I know. I�ve already taken care of that.

Antonio: How?

Tabitha: Look into the crystal ball!

(In the crystal ball, Carrie is at Qlinn�s House)

(Carrie sneaks upstairs and up into Qlinn�s bedroom)

Carrie: I�m sorry I have to do this. But I need your powers.

(Carrie hides behind a bookshelf)

(Coming out of the shower, he wraps a towel around his waist and comes out of the bathroom and into his room)

(Qlinn lies down on his bed for a little while)

Qlinn: What am I going to do? I haven�t seen Miguel for two weeks. I hope I didn�t do anything to upset him. I hope he still loves me.

Carrie: Oh. My poor little gay warlock brother. Seems like he has problems of his own.

Qlinn: Why didn�t he invite me to his Christmas Party? Maybe he forgot to.

Carrie: Now�s the time to do what Tabitha asked. (Carrie crawls over to Qlinn with out him knowing, his phone rings)

Carrie: Dammit! (She rolls under his bed as he answers it)

Qlinn: Hello?

Miguel: Hi. Qlinn.

Qlinn: Miguel!

Miguel: Look, I know we haven�t seen each other for a while but I�ve been busy.

Qlinn: That�s okay. So what did you call for?

Miguel: I have to know if you still have feelings for me or not.

Qlinn: Oh.

Miguel: I�m having a party tonight at my house. If you show up, I�ll give us a chance. If you don�t then I guess we can forget about it.

Qlinn: You don�t have to worry about that Miguel. I�ll be there.

Miguel: Good. Well. I�ll see you at the party.

(Qlinn hangs up the phone as he says bye)

Qlinn: Yes! I knew he still loved me! (He looks at the clock; it says 7:00pm)

Qlinn: Hmm� I better get ready for Gwen�s party. I should thank god that I have Miguel in my life. (He begins to pray)

Qlinn: (To God) Dear God. I�m sorry I missed church the other day. I was feeling so depressed that Miguel hadn�t talked to me for a while. (He continues to pray as Carrie starts to have second thoughts)

Carrie: How could I so this? What Tabitha told me to do isn�t necessary!

Tabitha: no!!!!! She�s starting to back out!

Antonio: Don�t worry. They always go through with it.

Tabitha: I hope you�re right.

(Carrie thinks hard)

Carrie: No. I have to do this! Besides. I need Luis! I have to have Luis!

(She stands beside Qlinn; He can�t see her because his eyes are closed)
(Carrie pulls a very big needle out of her bag) (The liquid inside it is bright red)

Qlinn: Please protect my family. Even though my sister and mother is all I have left in this world. God Bless Gwen. Even though she is keeping something from Ethan. And finally god bless Miguel. Thank you god. (He begins to say �Amen� when Carrie stabs Qlinn in the chest with the needle)

Carrie: (She pushes down on the needle as Qlinn starts to fall unconscious) I�m sorry Qlinn. But I need your powers. It�s best that you don�t know you have powers. Since you believe in god and everything. (She pulls the needle out of his chest)

(She puts the needle in her purse and crawls out the window)

Tabitha: She did it! She did it! I�ll have my powers back any minute now!

Antonio: And I will remain the Evil One!
