History[]
Merrill was present at the meeting between Phoebe and Paige and Cronyn at a pizzeria. With magic gone from the world, Cronyn had a set a trap by filling the pizzeria with demons. Before he left, Cronyn ordered his demons to kill the sisters. Merrill was injured in the fight and was later interrogated by Phoebe and Paige. When Merrill revealed the prophecy, the sisters realized that Piper's child was the Twice-Blessed Child.
