Prue, Piper and Phoebe's various schedules and activities begin to clash, allowing Cole to take advantage of their underlying anger towards each other. Calling forth Andras who infects them with rage, he is able to break the bond between them, rendering them powerless. But unfortunately for him and the Triad, Cole's feelings for Phoebe start to become more apparent.

The Charmed One's powers are routed in their bond as sisters. When they use their powers against each other this bond breaks.

Piper: Well, that's a bit of an understatement. It was big.
Leo: How big?
Prue: Um, do you remember Pearl Harbor?
Meaning:
In December 1941 a single carefully-planned and well-executed stroke by the Japanese removed the United States Navy's battleship force as a possible threat to the Japanese Empire's southward expansion. America, unprepared and now considerably weakened, was abruptly brought into the Second World War as a full combatant.

Phoebe: "Has the tribal council spoken? Am I voted off the island?"
Meaning:
A reference to the popular game show Survivor. The rules of this game are simple, sixteen average people are abandoned, in the middle of one of some of the most unforgiving places on earth. They are divided into teams. Every three days, the Survivors must gather to vote someone out of their tribe. Once a total 6 people have been voted out, the two tribes merge. After the merge, every person must compete for him/herself at both reward and immunity challenges. Only one person can win these challenges.

Leo: That's what we have to figure out. Let's start with your little tiff.
Piper: Well, that's a bit of an understatement. It was big.
Leo: How big?
Prue: Um, do you remember Pearl Harbor?
