Twelve Angry Men become eleven angry jurors who grow increasingly frustrated over Phoebe's stalling tactics, as Paige and Piper seek to prove what Phoebe's premonition has shown, namely, that the defendant, on trial for murder, is actually innocent.

How believable are the timing issues of this episode? Phoebe's stalling tactics are streching the bounds of crediblity.
Also, why couldn't Phoebe conjour the ghost of Angela by herself? Both Piage and Piper conjoured Grams by themselves. Is this a case of it being easier to conjour a familar spirit or of their powers getting stronger as time went on?

About as believable as the number of bathroom breaks Phoebe takes. Don't you think someone would have blocked access to the bathroom after like the third or fourth visit? As for the conjuring bit, it certainly is easier if the power of three is used. In Pre-Witched, the power of three was used to conjured the dead witch. Given the necessity to really conjure the dead woman, perhaps it was wiser to use the power of three.

Is this a case of it being easier to conjour a familar spirit or of their powers getting stronger as time went on? Maybe it was the spell used? There have been two different spells to summon the dead, one like the one Piper used in "Charmed Again, Part One" and the first used in "Pre-Witched." Though that also invokes the problem of how Penny summoned Patty by herself using, presumably, the same spell. Was Penny just a supierior witch? Or, was it location? Can the sisters summon ghosts individually if they're in the Manor and thus strengthened by the Spritual Nexus, whereas in the jury room, they needed the Power of Three because they lacked the power boost? *shrug* That's a good question though, laiste, and one which could've been easily fixed, if the person in charge of continuity was actually paying attention. (Did Kern fire all the continuity specialists from seasons 1-3? :

Welll, if we really wish to get technical - and why not? ... Have you ever noticed that in Charmed Again Part 1 when Piper first summons anyone, she lights all of the candles. Once she has heard from Cole that this innocent (Paige) might be a new Charmed One, Piper storms to the attic to summons Grams again. She does not light the candles, however. Then, when Piper and Phoebe summon Patty to meet Paige, again the candles are lit. What gives here?
Let's see: when someone is summoned in anger, candles don't need to be lit? Did anyone think about within episode continuity?

Did anyone think about within episode continuity? I noticed that the last time CAP1 aired on TNT. Of course my thought was, "Oh look, someone in the continuity department was sleeping again."
