'Charmed' Season 2 Episode 5 sees Harry's human life's sins revealed as he works with Abigael to find his Darklighter
Spoiler Alert for Season 2 Episode 5 of The CW's 'Charmed'!
This week's episode of 'Charmed', directed by Tessa Blake, sees Harry going to great lengths to find out where his Darklighter -- and therefore, Macy -- might be. When his multiple attempts at cracking the Book of Elders' section about Whitelighter fails, Abigael steps in using her demon powers to help Harry access his repressed memories to connect with his dark half.
It was a cracking episode for Rupert Evans -- already a well-established actor -- who showed off his acting skills earlier this season playing his Darklighter version. Harry's memories -- of his life as James Westphall -- come back to him in the demon mind-meld and they show Rupert playing a Harry who was experiencing the emotions from his memories while unearthing them.
There is a mysterious cloaked woman walking through the mind-meld, however, he must first unlock the door that separates him from his dark half. We see how the Elders made Whitelighters, trapping their dark halves in smoke form forever -- and if viewers weren't fans of the Elders before, they certainly might be headed that way. We see the cost at which the Elders did their job -- and hopefully, that is something the Charmed Ones can avoid.
As it turns out, Dark Harry was freed from what he was contained in by someone -- who must have had access to its key. This leads Whitelighter Harry to realize that someone is controlling Dark Harry, but it doesn't lead him closer to Macy.
Harry goes back to the mind-meld with Abigael to uncover the identity of the woman, who he realizes is Macy -- and comes back to the real world, but Abigael disappears. It is then that he realizes Macy is not in danger, because Dark Harry has feelings for Macy, just like Light Harry does.
It is in the final moments of the episode that Harry reveals this to Macy's sisters, who have been doing their own thing to find their sister -- and Harry's revelation is sure to confuse them. How will they feel about their Whitelighter having feelings for one of them?
'Charmed' airs on The CW on Friday nights.
