(Later in the series, Cole Turner, [Phoebe's longest relationship before Coop] gave Phoebe this ring so they'd marry with it, and she became a perfect housewife. In "Gone with the Witches", the same happens to Piper, but because a demon cast it on her to distract her for a while).

She wanted to keep the girls from receiving their powers permanently, so she created a potion to strip them of their powers. ^[8] On March 5, 1998 she made the decision to give the sisters the potion, but before she could she had a heart attack and fell down the attic stairs.
