  1. Episode 1

    Pilot

    In the seaside village of Eastwick, three very different women are about to discover some bewitching talents they never knew they had. And once they get together -- watch out! There was a time when Roxanne, Kat and Joanna didn't get along because of their preconceived notions of each other. Roxanne (Roxie) Torcoletti (series star REBECCA ROMIJN) was the extrovert artist, Kat Gardener (series star JAMIE RAY NEWMAN) the overworked wife and mom, and Joanna Frankel (series star LINDSAY PRICE) the wallflower local reporter. But after a weird encounter in the park and a few martinis, these three women have suddenly become fast friends. Together, they wish for their lives to change. An unknown power within each of them is suddenly unlocked, bringing them together and changing each of their lives. And that's when the mysterious and wealthy Darryl Van Horne (series star PAUL GROSS) arrives in town. He helps them discover their unique powers in ways they never could have imagined. But by igniting their hearts' desires, he might just be opening Pandora's Box.

    The locals become understandably curious about just who Darryl Van Horne is. Among the curious is Joanna's co-worker and best friend, Penny Higgins (series regular SARA RUE). Then there's Bun Waverly (series regular VERONICA CARTWRIGHT), the head of the Eastwick Historical Society and the fun and kooky aunt that Roxie and her teen-aged daughter, Mia (series regular ASHLEY BENSON), never had, who may hold a key to Darryl's real identity. Meanwhile, Joanna's longtime crush, Will St. David (series regular JOHANN URB), and Kat's layabout husband, Raymond (series regular JON BERNTHAL), become unintentional targets for the ladies' newfound powers.

  2. Episode 2

    Reaping and Sewing

    As Eastwick prepares for its annual fall HarvestFest, Joanna, Kat and Roxie's lives continue to take a turn for the strange. Distracted by distressing psychic visions of her new neighbor, Jamie, Roxie struggles to protect Mia from harassment by her ex-boyfriend, Gus (guest star CHRISTIAN ALEXANDER). As Kat gains the courage to end her own toxic relationship -- her marriage to Raymond -- he's back in their home to recuperate from being struck by lightning. And while Joanna worries that Will's romantic attentions are only due to her hypnotic power, she and Penny embark on a perilous mission to uncover Darryl Van Horne's true identity. Joanna finds Milton Philmont (guest star MARTIN MULL), a retired Gazette reporter who years ago wrote about the death of a man named Sebastian Hart -- a man who looks uncannily like a young Darryl Van Horne. Armed with an old photo of Hart with three beautiful women, she and Penny seek answers from the eccentric and reclusive Eleanor Rougement (guest star CYBIL SHEPHERD).

  3. Episode 3

    Madams and Madames

    Haunted by the ghost of her daughter's ex-boyfriend, Roxie questions her sanity and turns to a local psychic for help. Declining Darryl's offer of a high-powered (and high-priced) divorce attorney, Kat decides to give Raymond another chance, but is she only delaying the inevitable? Joanna's quest to find the truth about Darryl leads her to a new and different scandal -- and then she realizes her discovery was no accident. Meanwhile, Roxie's daughter, Mia, reluctantly attends her boyfriend's memorial, and though Bun has lost her memory, her mind is consumed with a mysterious symbol.

  4. Episode 4

    Fleas and Casserole

    With a little urging from Darryl, Roxie decides to learn more about her mysterious new neighbor, Jamie (guest star JACK HUSTON) -- and she ends up making a magical discovery.

And just as Joanna's long-awaited date with Will approaches, Morgan (guest star BRIAN HALLISAY), her ex-fiance, arrives in town, tempting her to find out what went wrong between them.

  5. Episode 5

    Mooning and Crooning

    Under the influence of a rare celestial event, Eastwick "goes wild" for a night -- and our ladies aren't spared. Newly single Kat fulfills a longtime fantasy -- atop a piano -- while Roxie and Mia end up in an embarrassing predicament with Chad and Josh (guest stars MATT DALLAS and DARREN CRISS). Feeling the pressure from her editor, Joanna, with Penny's help, rushes to print a newspaper story that gets her in some very hot water.

  6. Episode 6

    Bonfire and Betrayal

    In Eastwick, Halloween is the most important holiday of the year, when the town embraces its heritage with a good old-fashioned witch burning. Haunted by visions of a funeral, Roxie races to save those she loves from peril -- but can she change fate? Wrestling with her feelings for Will, Kat tries to help Joanna win him back, but only manages to drive her away. And, devastated after losing her job and her man, Joanna discovers things can always be worse.
