Join Lex and T as we explore Charmed Season 2, Episode 8, “P3 H2O”. During this episode, the Halliwell sisters investigate a deadly water demon that has been drowning people at a local lake—the same entity responsible for their mother's death. As Prue struggles with her grief and desire for vengeance, the sisters must find a way to vanquish the creature before it claims more victims. Lex and T take some time to investigate different water spirits - the good, the bad…and occasionally the ugly! Hold on tight, we’re about to dive in!
