Prue: Piper, you had to end the relationship, alright. Your heart wasn't in it and it was the only way not to break his.

Piper:It was a question for the room, Pheebs. When a demon makes a house call, my curiosity gets peaked.

Prue: Yeah, well, the house is a mess again. I mean, how come we can't fight the demon of cleanliness or the demon of housekeeping, or even that really big bald guy, Mr. Clean? I would so totally take him on.
