Phoebe Halliwell: Turned them against us?
Piper Halliwell: Twist everything around and make us look like the bad guys.
Paige Matthews: That's crazy. They would never believe that.
Piper Halliwell: Sure they would. Think about our track record with them lately.
Phoebe Halliwell: But what purpose would that serve? I mean, why bother?
Piper Halliwell: I don't know. To isolate us, make sure that we have a little less back-up in our time of need.

*** This review may contain spoilers ***

The Charmed Ones turn to the magical community for some help to identify the ultimate power, and in doing so, put into motion the Triad's plan to turn Billie, for good, against them. Billie has been keeping a diary which unknowingly to her the Triad is using to find the sisters weaknesses. The diary contains all the situations that have seemingly defeated them before; Grams' cursed ring is placed on Piper, they drive Paige's desire for enlightenment, and infect Phoebe with lust (one of the seven deadly sins). While doing this they convince the magical community that Billie and Christy are good and the Charmed Ones driven by greed and power are no longer following the rules that they are bound by. For Billie, seeing that the sisters aren't helping the magical community are all the convincing needed now it's time for the ultimate battle.
