All Halliwell's Eve - S3-E4

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Eva is teaching the sisters about ways to draw power on All Hallows Eve, she cuts an apple in half and puts a leaf over the seeds in the center. The leaf goes from small and only covering the center to bigger and covering more of the apple.

Sight Unseen - S3-E5

Factual error: When developing a photo it's first put into a developer chemical, which shows the picture up, then a stop, which stops it from developing anymore, then a fix which "sets" the photo. But in the basement, Prue puts the exposed photo into a tray with chemicals in it where it starts to develop, then into a second tray where it develops fully.

Sight Unseen - S3-E5

Plot hole: At the beginning of the episode, Phoebe tells Abby to get Prue's date a drink, then Piper calls Prue and Prue says she's on her way home. When she gets home, she is attacked by someone later revealed as Abby. Abby couldn't attack Prue when she was at P3.

Sight Unseen - S3-E5

Continuity mistake: Cole goes to the manor, turns the AC on, knocks a lamp on the ground and opens a window, then shimmers up to the attic. When the sisters come home all the windows are open, but Cole opened only one downstairs.

Sight Unseen - S3-E5

Factual error: In the scene where the invisible demon is entering Cole's office, the courthouse shown before the elevator is a New York City courthouse, not San Fransisco. It's confirmed by the presence of a NYC Taxi.

Primrose Empath - S3-E6

Revealing mistake: When Prue is practising using her powers while astral projecting, when Phoebe walks away to go see her in the attack you can see the makeup they used in an attempt to hide her tattoo on the right side of her back. It looks as though she's been bruised there. (00:00:43)

Primrose Empath - S3-E6

Continuity mistake: When Prue is in the basement with the priest she has curly hair, but when she comes upstairs to vanquish Vinceres it is completely straight, but she definitely didn't have time to straighten it.

Power Outage - S3-E7

Continuity mistake: During the training drill, Piper fumbles for a knife on a table in front of her. In the shot of the table, she loses hold of the knife as she pulls her hand up, but when we cut to a long shot, it is back in her hand.

Sleuthing With the Enemy - S3-E8

Other mistake: When Piper puts the Belthazor flesh into the Belthazor vanquishing potion, she is the only one that gets "blasted" back even though she is the one standing farthest away from the stove and the potion.

Cole: Phoebe, I love you. I don't know what's going on but maybe I can help. Would you like me to kill someone for you?

Answer: That was a mistake in the series.

Also, the episode is called 'Babies First Demon' and this alone tells us that it's Wyatt's first time in the field (so to speak) and as the sisters say, they've done a good job of clearing up their own magical messes so far. Nobody really knows how advanced Wyatt's powers are, or will become. That's why the cleaners appear, to nip things in the bud. The Cleaners didn't want to chance that the sisters could clean Wyatt's magic up, just incase they couldn't. Therefore intervening themselves, just in case.

Chosen answer: When the cleaners first surface in season 6 it is mentioned that usually the girls have been able to clean up their own messes (as seen in season 3 episode 22 when Phoebe turns back time thus concluding in the death of Prue).

Answer: Because they wanted them to fix their own mistakes.
