Artifacts[]

Abigael's Magical Purses: A pair of magical purses previously owned by Abigael Jameson-Caine. Maggie and Jordan used them to transfer a letter opener with Inara's blood between each other.
Black Amber: A powerful magical substance, described by Mel as the lifeblood of magic. Mel, Maggie, and Kaela drank pure black amber from the Black Amber Tree under the Command Center to restore their powers and regain the Power of Three.
Blue Camellia Matches: Matches that will smoke users to the Blue Camellia. Joséfina searched around Vera Manor for Mel's spare matches to get to Dev's memorial.
Enchanted Door: The door of the control room leading to the Command Center had been enchanted with a rune, acting as some sort of lock that apparently only Inara could open. The seal required Inara's blood to open.
Enchanted Mail: Letters and mail, on a stroller, that were magically delivered, with Kaela's help.
Enchanted Mop: A magical mop enchanted to auto-clean. Mel stated she needed to retrain it, as the mop swept around in erratic patterns when let loose, forcing her to chase after it.
Enchanted Ticket: A magical ticket given to Harry by Diana. Using a ticket puncher on the ticket allowed Harry and anyone he's touching to travel to and from Infinite Home Video.
GemCast: Magical gemstones that allow beings to communicate over long distances. Kaela found her phone had been replaced by a GemCast, and Joséfina used one in the past to watch Dev's memorial while looking for matches.
Inara's Bracelet: A gold bracelet worn by Inara. Inara had three charms placed on the bracelet that contained the powder for the Containment Spell in order to use it quickly and for ease of carrying.

Trivia[]

The episode title may be a reference to the 2008 film, Be Kind Rewind.
- Coincidentally, Melonie Diaz was a cast member of that movie.
Dev Banerjee's song for Kaela plays from the teapot, and his photo was seen from his memorial. Dev himself was last seen in Hashing It Out.
Ray Vera was seen in a flashback. He was last seen in Truth or Cares.
Brynn was mentioned. She was last seen in You Can't Go Home Again.
Macy Vaughn was seen in a photo. She was last seen in I Dreamed a Dream….
Abigael Jameson-Caine was mentioned. She was last seen in The Storm Before the Calm.
Chloe and Daphne Periwinkle are mentioned. They were last seen in Divine Secrets of the O.G. Sisterhood.
Quentin Moore's singing of the Tallyman rhyme was used over the SafeSpace speakers to incite grief in the occupants. Quentin himself was last seen in The Tallyman Cometh.
It was revealed that eight months to a year have passed since the events of Divine Secrets of the O.G. Sisterhood, making this episode take place some time in 2023.
In this episode, every main character was killed by Inara. Firstly, Mel was mortally injured after her and her sisters were attacked by Inara in the Command Center. Jordan was killed after helping Kaela place a containment spell around himself and Inara. Harry was killed after helping Maggie and Kaela escape the Command Center. Shortly later, Maggie and Kaela were killed by Inara at the Vera Manor.
As of this episode, Maggie has used her own power to gain access to Mel's Temporal Manipulation twice. The first time was when she accidentally switched bodies with her in "Switches & Stones", making her a time witch, while having her own power temporarily supercharged.
In the episode, we are led to assume that Maggie mimics Mel's Temporal Displacement in the hopes of allowing herself and Kaela to travel back in time to warn their past selves. However, with Mel's power only working on other objects and beings, Maggie would have never been able to send her own self back in time in the first place. With Inara catching up to them before they could even try this scenario, Kaela was able to quickly manifest a videotape containing all of the events leading up to then and Maggie managed to send it back in time to warn their past selves before the two of them were subsequently killed by Inara.

References to the Original Charmed[]

The Golden Gate Bridge is shown. The bridge was a prominent location in the original series, even being featured in the opening credits.
- Ray is revealed to be living in San Francisco, the city where the Charmed Ones resided.
Inara literally remade the world to her liking in an attempt to make a magical utopia. In the original series, the Charmed Ones helped a group of superior magical beings called the Avatars remake the world as well.
Kaela, Maggie and Mel restored their memories by remembering painful memories, such as Dev and Macy dying. In the original, Piper, Phoebe and Paige broke out of the Avatars' control by making themselves feel the pain of loss.
When all was lost, Maggie mimicked Mel's time powers to send a videotape back in time to warn their past selves before she and Kaela were killed by Inara. In the original, Paige and Phoebe both died, and Piper went back in time to change the outcome.
All humans around the world were turned into trees and plants, similar to how Piper and Paige turned an invincible demon, who could not be vanquished, into a tree.
Inara became "The Charmed One" after remaking the world and gaining the Power of Three for herself. In the season 9 comics, Piper, Phoebe and Paige all lost their powers when magic shifted from magical creatures to humans, which then went into Prue who didn't have her powers at the time, and became "The Charmed One". She returned them by using them all up at once and almost dying.
A nymph appears in this episode. The Charmed Ones first met three nymphs in season 5.
Maggie mimicked Mel's power. In the original series, Phoebe once channeled Piper's power when she was transformed into a Valkyrie.
The Charmed Ones plan to stop Inara's Utopia via time travel. In the original series, the Avatars' Utopia was undone by rewinding time to before it was created.
Upon making a plan to travel back in time, Kaela ponders whether they can travel further back, to prevent Dev's death. In the original series, when Utopia was going to be undone, Paige had the same questions, following the death of her boyfriend, Kyle Brody.
- Maggie expressed worries about going back to medieval times or getting eaten by dinosaurs. These events happened separately in the original Charmed.
