Summary
Piper organizes an engagement party for Paige and Henry, but the wedding is put in jeopardy when the couple begin to get cold feet. Phoebe notices a strange man following her, and soon discovers that he is a Cupid.

Plot
Piper is planning an engagement party for Paige and Henry. Phoebe and Billie try to help Christy adapt to life among humans.

A demon named Xar, a former member of the Triad, and another rebel demon plot against the Triad. They plan to turn the Charmed Ones against the Triad.

Christy, Phoebe and Billie are at a cafe. Christy eats a large piece of chicken with her hands, to the disgust of other patrons, and ends up setting it on fire. As Phoebe leaves, she bumps into a strange man.

Two cops, or so it seems, come to the manor. They act strangely, telling Piper that there may be an attempt on the sisters' lives. Christy realizes that the "cops" are demons, and one yells that the Triad is back. Christy incinerates one of them, and the other one shimmers away.

The man from the cafe comes to Phoebe's apartment. Oddly, his key is able to open her door. He claims to live in the unit below Phoebe's. Phoebe is suspicious. Shortly after, a demon in a Triad robe shimmers in and takes Christy. Christy is now in the hands of Xar, but the Charmed Ones are after the Triad.

Phoebe breaks into the strange man's apartment. He surprises her, and she tries to attack him; but he flashes a large ring, freezes Phoebe, and deflects her into a chair. He says he's a Cupid, and invites her to call him Coop. He says the Elders sent him to help her find love.

Billie repeatedly tries the call-a-lost-witch spell to retrieve Christy, but in vain. Christy burns away the bindings on her hands and burns up one of the demons holding her prisoner. She's about to vanquish Xar as well, when Billie's spell at last summons her. Christy summons the Triad in the conservatory and warns them that someone is impersonating them. The Triad suspects Xar, and vanquish him.

Billie has tracked the Triad to Magic School and the Charmed Ones orb there. Phoebe draws their fire, and with a fireball in flight, Piper freezes the room. Paige orbs one of the Triad into the path of the fireball, and he is destroyed. Piper blows up a second one, and the third shimmers to the underworld. Leo, however, is not returned, to Piper's disappointment.

The surviving Triad appears to Christy and tells her she must now act alone, to unite with the Ultimate Power.

At what was to be their engagement party, Paige and Henry marry.

Xar
Xar was a member of The Triad before being banished for his betrayal. He swore revenge afterwards by sending his minions to the Charmed Ones to warn them of the impending danger. He was vanquished by Candor.

Takar
One of Xar's minions.

Ciril
One of Xar's minions.

Coop
The second cupid in the series. He was sent down by the Elders as a way of saying thanks to Phoebe for all her efforts.

Glitches

 * When Phoebe decides to check out Coop's appartment she opens the door to find an empty loft. However when she was reading a newspaper in a previous episode it said "Luxury Loft - Only one left".
