This is the recap of that episode
Originally aired: Thursday May 17, 2001 on WB
ALL HELL BREAKS LOSE
The Charmed ones get away from Shax (the source's assassin) and go to the Manor and try and protect their innocent (a Doctor). While their Phoebe goes to look in the BOS for a way to vanquish him, Shax attacks and knocks both Prue and Piper through a wall. He then goes for the Doctor but Phoebe comes down from the attic reading the vanquishing spell which doesn't kill him but hurts him enough to flee. Phoebe sees both her sisters on the floor unconscious and bleeding. She calls for Leo who heals them both and tells them they almost died.
Prue and Piper run out into the street looking for Shax. In a tornado-like wind he appears and attacks them. Prue deflects his attack and Piper blows him up. They go back to the Manor questioning if he's really gone. While they're walking away we see a reporter and her camera man. They have just shot the whole thing on LIVE television.
Back at the manor they talk to the Doctor who promises to keep what he saw a secret. After the Doctor leaves Prue again questions if Shax was really vanquished. So Leo goes and checks with the Elders. Meanwhile Phoebe asks her sisters to send her to the underworld so she can reverse the evil spell on Cole and turn him back to good.
In a news room the reporter and several of her superiors are discussing what do to with what just happened on live T.V. They eventually send the same reporter to go looking for the mystery women on the tape.
Back where they supposedly vanquished Shax Prue and Piper are looking for any demon leftovers to make sure Shax truly is gone. Piper notices that they're getting strange looks.
At the Police station Darryl is confronted by his Captain about the Charmed ones and he points out the news coverage on them. Darryl is shocked to see them using their powers on T.V.
Darryl calls the girls at the manor and tells them to look at the T.V. Then they see themselves for the first time on T.V. using their powers. They are then shocked to see new live footage of the reporter standing outside their house.
Darryl arrives at the manor trying to make his way through the media circus that has stationed itself on their front lawn. While talking to Darryl about what's going to happen next, Leo orbs in and tells them that they're trying to figure a way out for the girls but are still working on it. Prue and Piper decide they need to get to the Doctor before Shax does but realize they might need Phoebe and the spell to vanquish him for good. The girls head outside where they are being harassed by the reporter.
Down in the underworld Cole is telling Phoebe she made a mistake coming down there. He tells her it's too late for them and grabs her around the neck. Phoebe pulls a potion out of her bag and breaks it on Cole's back. Cole then reaches for Phoebe again and pulls her into a passionate kiss. Still Cole tells her there is nowhere for them to go.
Back on the surface Prue and Piper get the Doctor and tell him he's still in danger. They take him to Prue's car when Shax attacks them in front of a lot of people including the news crew. Prue and Piper say the spell without hesitation and vanquish Shax in front of everyone.
Back at the Manor more reporters and people stand outside. Inside the manor Piper is amazed about all the famous people who want to interview them. Then they notice the Doctor on T.V. telling them about how they saved him and about them being witches. Piper is pissed at him for talking to the reporters. She calls for Leo to see if the Elders have come up with any solutions to their problem. They only thing they have come up with is contacting the demon Tempus. While discussing the matter a woman breaks through and gets into the manor and declares she wants to join them and that she's a witch too. Prue gets so angry with this she uses her power on the woman and flings her out. The woman walks around to the front and tells the reporter they're bad witches. Back in the manor they discuss Tempus again and decide to send Leo to the underworld and contact Cole (to see if he can contact Tempus) and find Phoebe and tell her whats going on.
Leo orbs in with Phoebe and Cole and tells them what has happened. Leo pitches the idea about Tempus to them both. Cole is not excited about the idea but says he will talk to the Source about it since he does not have the power to contact Tempus himself. Cole approaches the Source and suggests the idea as his own. The Source says he knows what's going on and says he'll do it only if Phoebe joins them. Cole tells him she never will and the Source tells him she needs to in order to save one of her sisters.
At the manor Prue and Piper are talking and putting furniture up against the doors. They're discussing their destroyed lives when they hear a loud bang. Piper looks down at her shirt and sees it covered in blood. Prue quickly grabs her and realizes she's been shot.
Back outside on top of her van the woman who broke in earlier cheers that she's killed one of the evil witches.
Prue calls for Leo but he can't hear her. She helps Piper to her car so she can get her to the hospital. She drives down the driveway but is completely boxed in by all the people. She calls for Leo again but still no answer. She yells for them to move and starts to get angrier. When nobody moves and even more agitated with the situation Prue starts to use her powers on the people. Once her path is clear she takes off to the hospital.
In the hospital the Doctor starts to work on Piper. Piper says her final words and then she flatlines. They use the paddles on her, but its too late Piper is dead. Prue is sobbing uncontrollably and yells at everyone in the O.R. to get out. Meanwhile a SWAT team forms outside the room.
In the underworld Cole tells Phoebe about the deal. Phoebe has Leo go check if what the Source said about her sister is true.
Back at the hospital the SWAT team tries to move in on Prue but she fights back. She closes the doors behind her and jams a metal stick through the door handles. Leo orbs in and sees Piper dead on the bed and starts to cry. He goes over and kisses her. Prue tells Leo to go and fix this and he orbs out.
Leo goes back to the underworld and tells Phoebe about Piper. Phoebe agrees to the deal but tells Cole under the condition he warns her sisters about Shax because they'll end up dying anyway. Cole tells the Source Phoebe has agreed and takes his leave. The Source then tells one of his men to detain Cole and kill Phoebe.
Back in the O.R. Prue is waiting. The SWAT team has placed some sort of heat sensors on Prue and fires a shot at her which goes through the wall. It stops before it ever hits Prue because time starts to reverse itself.
Time has reset itself and Prue and Piper are back at the manor with the Doctor. They call for Phoebe but there's no answers (she's in the underworld). Then Shax attacks them and once again Prue and Piper are sent smashing through the wall and are unconscious and bleeding to death and this time Shax kills the Doctor, sending him flying through the window. Shax then exits the manor in a gush of wind, closing the manor doors behind him and breaking the glass on the doors.

I LOVE CHARMED!!! best show ever! That episode where prue dies was a really good one... you HAVE to watch it. Basically Piper dies after being shot from some random chic who said she was a witch (the whole world found out they were witches) and so Pheobe get's Cole to convince the source to set back time in order to save themselves from exposure and to bring Piper back to life, except its set back to the beginning of the episode where the three sisters were fighting a demon Shax, and they both got injured only this time Leo didn't get there in time to heal Prue.
It was an awesome episode, a real tear jerker. I would buy the whole season 3 dvd just so u could see the episode lol! or try to find it on YouTube... the episode was called All Hell Breaks Loose.
Enjoy!!! Charmed rocks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The most popular charmed question.
She died when Piper and her were thrown through a wall by a demon assassin named Shax.
Originally Shax attacks and Phoebe distracts him and calls for Leo to save the girls which he does and then the three girls chase Shax out into the street and vanquish him, but they get caught on television.
Next thing you know everyone knows they are witches and the house is surrounded by wannabees and reporters.
One Wannabee gets in the house and is treated rudely. She wind up getting a rifle and shooting Piper.
Phoebe and Cole wnt with Leo down below to get the Source to allow the Tempest to turn back time in compensation for a truce. The Source agrees but only if Phoebe and Cole stay with him. Leo is watching this. The deal included that they had to warn the girls.
Piper dies as Prue takes her to the hospital and is about to die herself when the deal is truck and time is reversed to before Shax attacks.
No warning is given. Shax throws the girls through the wall. Phoebe and Leo are in the underworld with Cole where none of them can sense what is going on upstairs.
By the time Leo gets to the House Prue has left her body and Piper is about to leave hers. Leo saves Piper. Phoebe and Cole escape the underworld.
Phoebe and Piper try to call back their lost sister but what happens there is they call Paige instead.
Patty has to tell them that they have another sister and that the Elders have plans for Prue so they can not talk to her. This all leads to them becoming Charmed Again.

the episode all hell brakes loose the last of season 3 doesn't actually show her death, so you dont know shes dead untill the first episode of season 4 charmed again parts 1 and two, pheobe is taken into the underworld so cant call leo to heal prue and piper who was attacked by shax the sourses assin as they were protecting an inocent from him, because piper and prue's magic was exposed on tv so tempest reset time as long as pheobe stayed in the underworld because she was there to counter the spell put on cole that made him evil again. so time reset and pheobe wasn't there to draw shax off or to call leo.

Actually Prue and Piper died and Phoebe was in the underworld with Cole, They told Phoebe the would save her sister if she stayed in the underworld forever with Cole, she agreed not knowing that Prue was dead too, so time was reversed and the way it played out Prue died and Piper lived.
