Can he swing from a web, no he can't, he's a Chris...

Warning: Spoilers
This episode officialises Chris's real entrance into the family, as HE is changed into a demon and tries to kill his relatives -which is the Halliwell's rite of acceptation into the family, as we know. By the way, I can't believe that there isn't a single reference to Spiderman here. While that plot is decent, the best parts of the episode actually occur around it. Like the ultrasound picture, or Chris's reaction to learning that Wyatt could shield in the womb, or the fact that he STILL wants to kill Leo after the spell ends. Those two sure spend a lot of time beating each other up -and chatting at the top of that bridge, too.

Then you have Phoebe's and Paige's side-plots. Phoebe's ultraspeed-dates, a consequence of her vision at the Magic School, already hint at the troubles she will soon have, and Paige is still in her workaholic phase. Her side-plot with the Wicked Witch seems a bit far-fetched, but it is so silly from beginning to end that you just have to laugh -especially as it reintroduces familiar faces.
