    • Trivia
      This is the first time that Piper's power of "Molecular Combustion" is used. She blows up a clock waiting in line at the courthouse. Leo explains this as, "Piper's powers work by slowing down molecules, and apparently now she can speed them up as well."
    • Goofs
      Prue and Piper discuss the fact that Piper didn't accidentally blow Prue up. At this point it has been well established that Piper can't freeze Prue and Phoebe because her powers don't work on them. If she can't freeze them, then she shouldn't be able to blow them up either.
