Continuity: When Piper speaks to Doug at the bar, he has a silver shaker in his hand, mixing a drink. He sets he shaker down on a tray. He speaks to Piper and when the waitress picks up the tray, he reaches over and picks up, not the silver shaker, but a finished drink and slides it down the bar.

Quotes:

Phoebe Halliwell: He totally used me, Piper. He just used me to get to Prue.
Piper Halliwell: I'm sorry.
Phoebe Halliwell: Thanks for not saying, I told you so." Why didn't I see it coming? What am I? A sucker for punishment?
Piper Halliwell: No. You see the good in people, and that's never wrong. Besides, the wrong guys are usually the most interesting.

People do not Change

In Cairo, Egypt, three Americans steal a valuable urn, but the object is cursed and its guardian kills one of the thieves and feeds of his greed. One of the guys is Andy, the former passion of Phoebe, and he travels to San Francisco to use his former girlfriend to convince Prue to auction the urn. Meanwhile, Piper helps the clumsy waiter of the Quake Doug to get back and propose his former girlfriend Shelly. When the second thief is killed, Clay decides to leave San Francisco in a hurry. The Halliwell sisters do not have enough power to protect him, but something unpredictably happens.

"Feats of Clay" is one of the weakest episodes of "Charmed", but entertains. The romance of the waiter Doug and the waitress Shelly is silly, and the story of the curse protected by a guardian is predictable. My vote is seven.
