Melinda quotes from Charmed

"To work with One's hands is a great gift."

Leo

Well ... "I am a true laborer. I earn that I eat, get that I wear"

"Owe no man hate, envy no man's happiness..."

Prue

Wasn't that fun? Okay, let's go now.

He is a treasure, Piper.

Piper

Why you telling me?

No, don’t...don’t rip the dress to make it fit me.

Phoebe

Oh, no, no, I’m not ripping it. It’s called a zipper, see?(Phoebe zips up the dress)

Oh, a wise witch made this.(Melinda takes the dress off of Phoebe and plays with the zipper)

Phoebe

Yeah, and wise witches in this century keep a low profile. You slip this dress on, you’ll blend right in.

Mommy, mommy, mommy!

Piper

Uh, you... I think you have the wrong house. Certainly the wrong mommy.

Stop fooling! Carpool!

Piper

Phoebe? Where's the volume?

Command recognized.

Mommy, I'm gonna be late!

Piper

Uh, okay! Um...TV, shut up! Mute! Somethin'. [she walks to the door]

Morning, Piper. You alright?

Piper

I guess.

Yeah, it's a... with your sister, it's rough, I know. So, don't worry about your little one. I'll get her to school like you asked but uh, you sure you want me to take her to your ex's?

Piper

Ex? As in husband? As in mine? Yes, if that is what I told you, then yes.

So, you and he are getting along better now?

Piper

Maybe. Prue? Prue?!

Okay, let's hit the road.

[She goes, but turns back, and whispers] Don't worry, mommy. I promise I'll do what you asked. I won't use my magic again, ever.

Prue

Hey, hey, people. Okay, enough! People stop touching me! Stay, stay.

Piper

Prue, what's going on?

Prue

I don't know, but I could really get used to it. I mean, check me out. I don't just work at Bucklands, I own it. And three more. Paris, Tokyo and London.

Piper

And you're blonde.

Prue

Yeah, strange.

Piper

Wait, you had time to get to work already?

Prue

Well, actually, I woke up there but it was amazing. I had all these assistants and this huge office. And I have a chauffeur and he's so totally hot. Uh... How'd you do?

Prue

Is that a good thing or...?

Piper

Well, if you ignore my apparently failed marriage and the fact that I'm still living in the manor...

Prue

Wait, you are married?

Piper

Was. My daughter is on her way...

Prue

Wait. Stop right there. You have a daughter?

Piper

Yeah. And, and, and... she's... she's beautiful.

Prue

Oh, of course she is. What's her name?

Piper

Oh God! I don't know. But Prue, she... she has powers. But for some reason I told her not to use them. Why would I do that?

Prue

Uh, speaking of why... Why are we in our future bodies? I mean, I thought we were just supposed to come here and see them.

Piper

Well, apparently going to the past isn't the same as going to the future. I just wish that, since we are in our future bodies, we could have some memory of what's happened in the last ten years, like how I got a daughter!

Prue

Okay, wait a second. If I'm in my future body, and you are in your future body, then that means that Phoebe...

Piper

Oh, TV! Louder, louder!

Command recognized.

Piper

Eight hours? We were supposed to be here two weeks before!

Prue

Shhhh!
