During their date Piper froze the room just before Leo was called away. Why does Leo go to orb knowing that everyone is frozen and some people are bound to notice his sudden disappearance as it is a public place. Was Leo really not concerned about revealing his powers to a room full of people?
-
When Dan drops off Piper's things at the end of the episode he said he was hoping that she'd come back but after seeing her the night before (with Leo) he realizes she is not. However, her date with Leo was two nights earlier not the night before. He was orbed away to discuss the Demon of Illusion, came back the next day when they went to theater and Billy fell out that itself took up the whole night and Dan came over the day after all that was finished.
-
When Prue first stops the film to burn the film and with it the Demon of Illusion, there is a few moments before it is completed and the demon is destroyed. Why didn't he just step out as soon as he began to feel the burning? He was aware of what was going on and unlike Phoebe and Piper, he didn't need to throw a potion to get out!
-
While the characters are out of the movie, it is said that they do not know how to exist outside of the screen. Why not? They are all people in our world! They are not leaving a comic strip, they are leaving a movie, which was filmed by real people, actors specifically. So why would they leave the screen as the characters they played? They should have come off the screen as the people they were, shouldn't have they? Even if not, what about the actors who played Bloody Mary and Paul Bunyeon, they were both in color movies, so that would mean that the actors who played them were most likely still alive. Wouldn't that cause some kind of conflict?
-
When the Demon of Illusion helps Bloody Mary to get out of the screen, they are both in a close shot, which makes them look much bigger than Piper and Leo who are standing in front of the screen. When Bloody Mary comes out, she doesn't resize. However on the next shot (as well as for the remainder of the episode) she is clearly the same size as Piper and Leo.
-
TRIVIA: This episode features Nina Gordon's song Tonight & The Rest Of My Life.
-
At the end of the episode, Shannon Doherty (Prue) has blond highlights in her hair, but she didn't have them during the rest of the episode, nor does she have them after this episode.
-
Phoebe used makeup to give Billy color, but how did his hair get color? It was never shown if she dyed his hair or not. Also, how did his clothes that were obviously the same become colored? Did she dye them too?
-
TRIVIA: This episode features Piper and Leo's first real date, although it doesn't go as planned.
-
TRIVIA: This episode reveals that Phoebe's favorite movie is Kill It Before It Dies and her ideal man is Billy, the main character in the movie. Phoebe later watches the movie again in the episodes Bride And Gloom and Sense and Sense Ability.
-
After Phoebe and Billy kiss for the first time his lips turn black and white, but when they show a side view of Billy his lips are a normal color. Then when they cut back to him his lips are black and white again.
-
In this episode, Phoebe's glasses look different from the ones she got in the previous episode How To Make A Quilt Out Of Americans.
-
When Phoebe and Billy first kiss, the foundation rubs off of him causing her to have to re-apply it. Why didn't it rub off every time they kissed like when Prue came running into the attic because she was being chased by the axe murderer? They were in the middle of a kiss then but his "make-up" was fine.
-
When Phoebe runs out of the manor to chase the Demon of Illusion, she does not have her purse with her. When she actually gets to the theater, she has this huge purse slung over her.
-
During the scene when the Charmed Ones vanquish the Axe Murderer, Phoebe throws water on him and his hat falls off. However the hat mysteriously reappears and disappears on his head before he is actually vanquished.
-
Phoebe said that she "vanquished" the Demon of Illusion by using a spell that combined the spell to vanquish a demon and another to vanquish a Bunyip. In season 5 it was stated that a Bunyip isn't good or evil, so what incentive would the sisters have to vanquish a neutral creature?
-
When Billy tackles the demon out of the movie screen, it's visible that his skin color is a normal shade and not gray.
-
Would Piper, a chef, really ask for the salt shaker before she'd even tasted the food?
