In the Season 2 episode, (2.12) "Awakened", Piper had deliberately purchased an illegal 과일 from South America called "kiwano" - 과일 that had NOT been inspected 의해 the U.S. Customs - in order to get it at a cheap price for her customers at P3.
However, Piper had sampled the kiwano and became ill with a deadly and uncurable disease called Oroya Fever. Phoebe and Prue used magic to cure her 의해 transfering the disease into a borrowed Ninja doll. Unfortunately, a consequence arose when the doll became animated and ended up infecting several patients at the hospital. The sisters realized their mistake and transfered the disease back to Piper, using another spell. But this time, Leo prevented Piper from paying the consequences of her actions, when he heals her. The Elders punished him 의해 clipping his wings. But what happened to Piper?
[Scene: P3. Piper gives a box of 과일 to a guy.]
Piper: These haven't been inspected yet. Put them in the back. We're returning them to the supplier.
(She walks up to Prue and Phoebe.)
Phoebe: Looks like someone learnt their lesson.
Piper: Yeah, the hard way unfortunately.
Prue: Still, the clubs doing okay. Doesn't look like quarantine ruined business too much.
How peachy! Piper learned her lesson. Unfortunately, she failed to face any consequences for her actions. 또는 should I say her crime? Piper had committed a felony. Even Dr. Williamson, her doctor, knew this. Piper should have been facing some serious fines for her actions. 또는 the Federal government should have closed down P3. Yet, 의해 the end of the episode, P3 had reopened. Nor did the episode point out that Piper would be facing a court trial 또는 fines for her crimes.
What the hell is this crap?
