==Synopsis==

While investigating a murder at [[Magic School (Charmed)|Magic School]], [[Paige Matthews|Paige]] and Agent Brody are sucked into an unfinished novel written twenty years ago by two students. They suddenly find themselves in a 1930s film noir, where they are chased by gangsters in pursuit of the famed Burmese Falcon. With no way to escape, Paige and Brody must help Eddie Mullen, the missing young author of the novel, learn to be a hero so the story can end. Back at Magic School, [[Phoebe Halliwell|Phoebe]], [[Piper Halliwell|Piper]] and [[Leo Wyatt|Leo]] try to rescue Paige and Brody by writing plot twists into the pages of the novel. Meanwhile, Phoebe tries to help Leo win Piper back, but Piper is still struggling with her feelings.


==Quotes==

==Book of Shadows==

===Enemies===
* None

===Neutral beings===
;Avatars: Avatars first appeared in the Season five episode ''[[Sam I Am (Charmed episode)|Sam I Am]]'' and returned in ''[[Centennial Charmed (Charmed episode)|Centennial Charmed]]'' (The one hundredth Episode). They wanted [[Cole Turner]] to become an Avatar, but it was too late when Cole was vanquished. They recently became major recurring characters. After they achieved their goal of getting the Charmed Ones and Leo to help get the world to become a "Utopia" where they dictate everything that happens, they were soon forced to give up this world when the Charmed Ones (the greatest force of good) and Zankou (the leader of the demons) realized their plan and threatened them with death. They are indirectly to blame for the deaths of Cole Turner and Kyle Brody.

===Spells===
;To get Paige out of the book: ''In this place and in this hour,<br>I call upon the charmed power.<br>Bring our sister out from the page<br>Bring her now, Kyle Brody and Paige''
