Brown hasn’t in this, his second turn as governor (he also ran the state from 1975–83). Brown’s three immediate successors-Arnold Schwarzenegger, Gray Davis, and Pete Wilson-all faced recessions during their respective tenures. Here, Jerry Brown has led a charmed life. How to define gubernatorial luck? Two ways.įirst, there’s California’s economic health. It’s a Woody Allen drama set in London, chronicling the lives and dubious life choices of the British upper crust.īut it does get to an uneasy question that will greet California’s fortieth governor come January: Will good fortune smile upon Gavin Newsom or John Cox during their reign in Sacramento? Granted, the film has nothing to do with California politics and policy. People are afraid to face how great a part of life is dependent on luck.” Not the entire film, mind you, just the opening lines: “The man who said ‘I’d rather be lucky than good,’ saw deeply into life. Clay walks in and asks if there is any chance Phoebe will return with him to New York.To appreciate what awaits the man who’ll replace Jerry Brown, take a time-out from politics and watch the movie Match Point. She had given up on waiting for him to ask, but now they are reconciled. Shelley finds the ring and Doug asks Shelley to marry him. Piper freezes him and pulls an engagement ring out of his apron. Piper has reversed the confidence spell and Doug is back to dropping dishes. The Guardian disappears, and then so does the urn. The sisters run in and Clay blocks the cobra from Phoebe. The Guardian throws down a glowing cord, which turns into a huge cobra. Clay has returned to Buckland's and offers himself to the Guardian. The three sisters consult the Book of Shadows, and find nothing about the urn-but that a curse for greed can be reversed by a selfless act. Clay flees, Prue's telekinesis barely affects the Guardian, and the two sisters also run. At Buckland's, the Guardian appears to Clay, Phoebe and Prue. Phoebe gets a vision and sees Clay confronting a giant cobra. Later, Clay meets Phoebe at the manor and offers to take the urn and turn himself in to the police. Phoebe believes that Clay had brought the curse among the sisters. He knows that Wesley and Palmer are dead, but had not known about the curse.

Rex Buckland and Hannah Webster had skimmed off so much in auction proceeds that a bank forced Buckland's into bankruptcy and sent Claire Pryce to run it. Clay tells Phoebe about the urn and he wants Prue to sell it via Buckland's. She has dumped him, he's a wreck and he's constantly dropping dishes. Doug's girlfriend, Shelley, also works at Quake. The sisters are talking at Quake when a waiter, Doug, spills some glasses. Clay appears at the manor he turns out to be an ex-boyfriend of Phoebe.
