Luis and Ethan start arguing about the Crane's again but Sheridan tells her two most favorite men in the world she wants 2001 to start on a happy note. Pilar and Theresa are talking in the hall.

Pilar wants to know why she scanned those papers in her laptop. She asks Theresa if any one found the file in her laptop, what would they find?

Ethan wants to get going as soon as possible, so they can start their New Year's Eve celebrations. Theresa does not want to go to the mansion as she does not feel comfortable and has nothing to wear.

A nurse enters Sheridan's room, and tells her she is free to go home. Sheridan is all excited, and can not wait until she returns to her cottage. Luis wonders why she does not want to spend the night at the mansion with her family, but Sheridan tells him she only wants to be with him. All Sheridan ever wanted was to sit on the couch with Luis, drink a toast to a Happy New Year and to a great life. They snuggle as the fire works go off.

She gets dressed and has to go check to make sure Sam is all right. Later when Ivy has returned home, Ethan enters his mother's room. She wishes her son a Happy New Year.

Had his mother not hired Theresa and given her the computer, he would never have met her and fallen in love with her. Ethan asks his mother for all the documents including his birth certificate so he can get a marriage license. When Ivy gives Ethan his birth certificate, Ethan sees some irregularity on it and asks his mother about it.

AT THE BENNETT HOUSE:
A local television crew is at the Bennett house, and they are doing a live story about the bird attack. Sam describes the attack as unbelievable. In her room, Kay says the attack was not her fault but Hecuba pops in and says it was indeed her fault. Kay was the one who gave Hecuba pieces of Charity's hair and fingernail clippings. Kay tells Hecuba she is sick. Hecuba tells her to stop wining. What happened last night was only a trial run for what she has in store for Charity. Miguel enters Charity's room. Charity is sleeping and she is dreaming of the attack. Charity relives seeing the monster she saw last night. Miguel hears Charity talking of evil. The reporter finishes his report and the clean up in the Bennett house continues. Eve does not believe what happened. Grace somehow feels they were targeted for the attack. Hecuba asks Kay to watch Charity to find out how she reacts to the attack. Kay thinks Hecuba is scared of Charity. Hecuba becomes highly irritated and tells Kay to do as she says or she will never get her soul back. Miguel tells Charity to wake up, she is only dreaming. Charity wakes and screams out Hecuba's name. TC can not believe what went down last night. Sam is scared that Grace is going to use this attack and go over board the way she has a tendency to do. He remembers how Grace reacted after she said she was visited by the angel girl. Miguel tells Charity she was having a nightmare. Charity describes the ghoulish figure she saw last night, and again in her dream. Charity knows that what she saw was real and not a dream. Miguel asks Charity who Hecuba is, saying that is the name she screamed when she woke up. Kay enters Charity's room to check on her, and Charity asks her cousin who Hecuba is. Charity wants Kay to tell them about Hecuba. Naturally, Kay pleads innocence. Again Charity wants to know what Kay is doing with Hecuba. Charity can see Hecuba in Kay! Miguel tells Charity to let it go. Kay leaves and Charity tells Miguel she loves him and is glad he is there for her. Hecuba returns and tells Kay she did a good job with Charity. Hecuba is scared that Charity's powers are starting to develop. Hecuba tells Kay she will get her soul back only after they have fun - good evil fun. Eve wants to know why Tabitha did not hear anything from the attack last night as she only lives next door. Jessica is telling Tabitha about reading the horoscopes last night on the Internet. Harmony was targeted in the horoscopes saying the battle over good and evil was going to take place and Harmony could be blown off the face of the earth. Grace tells Jessica not to scare Tabitha but Tabitha tells Timmy Jessica is right on the money. Timmy is confused and asks Tabitha what side they are on. Tabitha doesn't really know, as they are dead meat no matter what they do. Ivy arrives at the Bennett house and she tells Sam she was scared for him. She can not get him out of her minds no matter what she does. Sam tells Ivy to get out but she kisses him passionately. Grace walks in the kitchen and wants to know what is going on. Ivy tells Grace she tripped on something and Sam caught her. Sam asks Ivy to go but Grace asks her to stay and talk. Ivy and Grace talk about the angel girl giving Grave a warning about Sam's son. Grace truly feels her family is under a dark cloud. Grace returns to help with the clean up and Sam tells Ivy to leave. He believes she is up to her old tricks again about Ethan being their love child. Ivy leaves but she wonders if Grace's premonitions are true. Perhaps Ethan is in some kind of real danger. Sam is talking to TC and Eve while Tabitha over hears the conversation about Ivy Crane. Miguel tells Grace about Charity's nightmare. Tabitha hopes that Grace will still love Sam when she finds out that Ethan is Sam's son. Hecuba sees everything that is going on in her mirror. She stirs her cauldron and the contents in the pot turn red. Sam tells every one to stick together but as he is talking, blood comes through the walls. Everyone sees the blood and Hecuba tells Kay to take a look but especially in her own room. Tabitha tells Timmy that bleeding walls mean death for all who reside within...

AT THE BENNETT HOUSE:
Charity sees the written message "you are all doomed" written in blood on the wall. She also sees the word death written on the same wall. She yells and everyone comes running out of the kitchen to see what is the matter. Watching from outside, Tabitha tells Timmy it is the beginning of the end for everyone in Harmony. Kay heard Charity's scream and asks Hecuba what she did to her cousin. Kay does not want Charity hurt, she just does not want her to be with Miguel. Kay also tells Hecuba she does not want Miguel any more. The price is not worth all the pain that her family is going through. Charity tells everyone she saw the word death written on the wall. Sam tells her she only imagined it. Tabitha knows Hecuba is toying with Charity. Reese tells everyone he can explain everything that that has happened. Sam tells Charity he too has an explanation. He says the word death must have been on Charity's mind so she willed herself to see it, the way people can see images in clouds. Reese tells Sam he is wrong, and begins to tell the story of two witches who were in a battle royal hundreds of years ago in England. Reese reads from the Internet, and according to Tabitha he is describing the events that took place event to event. Tabitha curses the Internet! Sam asks Reese what he is looking at and Reese tells the police chief he is reading from the Internet and the story is fact. It did happen. Grace and Charity both think the story sounds very familiar to them. Tabitha remembers the events that took place like it was yesterday. She tells Timmy everything that happened. Tabitha unleashed her full powers on Hecuba. The fight began. Grace and Charity's ancestors were present and were watching the events. Tabitha now feels useless, as she has no powers and she done not know what to expect from Hecuba. Reese continues to relate the story, and Kay wants more information. She asks questions about the appearance of the witches. Reese says there were no pictures and everyone living in the town died of the plague. The legend has it the two witches still live there. Tabitha laughs at that statement, and she remembers the citizens of the village coming to get the two witches to burn them at the stake. Tabitha hid and along with the Standish women and Hecuba they fled to the United States. They were the ones who founded the settlement of Harmony.

Charity thinks Kay knows something about everything that is going on. Grace defuses the situation saying everyone is over tired. Hecuba leaves Tabitha and Timmy. Timmy is scared. He feels he is too young to die. Timmy hopes Tabitha's book being published by Harper-Collins will allow the truth to come out, and all the trouble they find themselves in will be over. Tabitha thinks the book will mean her burning at the steak once again.

Pilar tells Rebecca she can have any room in the east wing of the mansion that she wants but Ivy's room is off limits. Rebecca asks Pilar to leave so she can pick out some perfume.
