20.04.2019

The series "Charmed" is rightfully considered a cult. Its popularity came in the late 90s - early 2000s, but it still has a lot of fans around the world, and many TV channels are happy to launch it on the air every couple of years. Such fame and success of the project is primarily due to the actors and characters they embodied. The Witch Sisters themselves have been discussed millions of times before, but there are other excellent characters that deserve special attention, in particular, Cole Turner.

War within

This is the most versatile, interesting, unusual and underestimated character in Charmed. According to many fans, the hero was mediocrely "leaked", they did not give him a worthy end to the storyline and generally spoiled it as best they could. But all this is poetry, because how many people - so many opinions. One way or another, you will not find a more odious, complex and non-standard character in the series. Why did Cole Turner "hook" the audience so much? A handsome actor doesn't count. The whole history of this character in the series is fixated on a deep internal struggle. Is it possible to unequivocally answer that he won this battle? Only if you analyze in detail the path of the hero and try to comprehend it.

Acquaintance and the emergence of conflict

In the North American state of California, on January 19, 1885, the son of politician Benjamin Coloridzh Turner and demoness Half-man, half-demon Cole Turner, whose real name was Balthazar, was born, lost his father at the age of three. Naturally, being brought up in an environment of demons, Cole himself completely immersed himself in his second dark essence. Having mastered the profession of a lawyer, he used it for many years to cover up evil. Viewers will learn this information from the further plot.

Cole Turner appears for the first time at the beginning of the third season as the District Attorney. He meets the Halliwell sisters and tries to ingratiate himself with them. The witches don't know this, but Cole is tasked by the Triad to kill the Charmed Ones. Trying to fall in love with Phoebe's younger sister, the half-demon did not notice how he fell in love himself. He was unable to complete the task, revealed himself to his beloved, protected her and his sisters, betrayed his superiors and killed the Triad, openly going over to the side of good. Actually, his internal conflict began already when the loving human side for the first time in a century began to prevail over the ruthless and cruel demonic.

Love, fight, obsession

At first, Phoebe fought for Cole, supported, deceived the sisters who did not accept her man. For the first time in his life, Cole Turner loved and was loved. Previously, the demon did not even have friends, but now something worth fighting for has appeared, and first of all with its inner evil. As a result, the sisters even helped Cole get rid of the dark entity. But the story turned out so that Turner was tricked into taking dark forces defeated Master, and he became the Source of Evil.

At this point, Phoebe gave up. A desperate girl, although she married a demon, but in the end she could not help him and killed her lover. Once in a demonic purgatory, Cole Turner was able to survive there and return only thanks to one force - love. But he came in a completely different way: no longer a demon, not a Master, but something completely different and immortal. However, our hero remained the same Cole. He wanted to be with Phoebe and tried to be kind for her sake.

After being repeatedly rejected, Turner, who had nothing else to cling to, went insane. The former demon created an alternate universe to be with the one he craved more than anything. But there Cole became mortal, and the sisters killed him a second time.

End of story

It seemed that the demon could be forgotten, but in season 7, Cole returns. At that moment, when Piper was in a coma, our hero was able to help her. Cole Turner was imprisoned in alternate reality from where there is no way out material world. All these years, he looked after the sisters, invisibly protected them, and even helped Phoebe find happiness with Drake. And he himself was doomed to eternal existence without love ...

owner (English) The Source of All Evil) - fictional character series "Charmed". None other than the Devil, in some versions of the translation he is called Satan. A more accurate translation of the name Source of All Evil. For first four Seasons tried in vain to kill the Charmed Ones, but was defeated. In the eighth season of the series, he was briefly revived by the demoness Mandi, but again defeated by the Power of Three. First appears on screen in episode 3x22. For the first time, he was dressed in bulky black armor with a scarlet cloak, as well as with huge wings on his back. In the fourth season, he appears in a black hoodie and hood, only in episode 4x13 is his face shown for the first time.

Life before the events of the series

Thousands of years ago, there was a power struggle in the Underworld between Zanku and the Master. The Master won the fight, but he only imprisoned Zanka, but did not kill him. His face was half mutilated in this fight. Only the demons know about it top level. Showed rigidity to all demons without exception.

Hundreds of years ago, he banished such evil beings as: Hekate, vampires, wizards, Kuzon, Javna, and possibly most of the demons that were encountered in the first season of the series. They were not loyal to him and he expelled them from the Underworld.

Life during the series

For the first time, his existence became known much earlier than his name. In episode 1x10, Prue's demon boss, Hannah Webster, was engulfed in flames and screamed the mysterious word "He". It became clear that someone stronger was behind them, but the Charmed Ones did not betray this. Hannah Webster and Rex Buckland were the first assassins sent by the Master to kill witches. The next messenger was a demon, better known as Inspector Rodriguez, who only managed to kill Andy.

For the first time, his name is spoken by the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, saying that the Master will kill them if they do not complete certain missions. However, he destroys them himself.

In the third season, the Triad, under the influence of the Master, sends the powerful demon Balthazar, who is supposed to kill the Charmed Ones. Having failed to complete the task, the hunt for Balthazar begins. Instead, the Master sends himself scary demon of the highest level - Sheks, who managed to kill Prue Halliwell. But a new sister appears and Shex is defeated. The owner, no longer trusting anyone, takes on the Charmed Ones himself and tries to persuade the witch Paige Matthews, who has not yet taken place, to the side of Evil. But the plan fails.

It would seem that the decisive battle takes place in episode 4x13. The owner decides to take an extreme step. He decides to destroy the Charmed Ones with the help of the Abyss - the most ancient matter that absorbs everything in its path as soon as it gains strength. Cole absorbs the Void to kill the Host. The owner is defeated. But the power that the Void had absorbed remained in Cole. Now he is the new owner.

Cole marries Phoebe, they soon become the rulers of the Underworld. Piper and Paige manage to convince Phoebe to take the side of Good and destroy the Master. Another Master has been defeated. Phoebe automatically becomes the Mistress, or rather her child (not yet born), who has black magic. The sire sorcery transfers this child into himself and becomes the Mistress, but with the help of the Power of Three, she and the child are defeated.

In the fifth season, the throne of the Master was encroached upon by Barbas, who was destroyed by Paige. Also, during the season, various demons tried to become the Master. For - 8 seasons, no one fought for power. In the seventh season, in a sense, the "Master" becomes Zanku, although there was no initiation.

In the eighth season, with the help of Wyatt, the demoness Mandi revived the Master. She wanted to rule the Underworld with the Master. However, the Charmed Ones destroyed them both.

Charmed consists of 8 seasons (178 episodes). In the center of all events is the family of good sorceresses Halliwell.

Each of the sisters has unique special abilities, and together they also have access to the most powerful magic - the "Power of Three". These girls fight evil and protect the innocent.

The eldest Halliwell - Prue - is able to move objects with her eyes. A little later, she also received the gift of creating projections. At the end of the 3rd season, this heroine dies and no longer appears in the television series.

Halliwell's middle sister is Piper. She is the kindest and most economic. Perhaps it is thanks to this that she manages to find her soul mate, the guardian angel Leo, before the sisters. This unusual couple subsequently have 3 children. Sons Wyatt and Chris, and daughter Melissa Prudence. Piper's power is the ability to briefly freeze time. In later seasons, she also learns the ability to blow things up.

The youngest representative of the trinity of sorceresses is Phoebe. She has the gift to see the past and the future by touching an object or person, as well as levitate.

Phoebe is the most loving and restless of the sisters. That is why most often it is she who becomes the source of trouble.

She is the illegitimate daughter of the mother of the Halliwell sisters and her guardian angel. Its existence was a mystery for many years. However, after the death of Prue, the ghost of the mother of the Charmed Ones told about Paige Phoebe and Piper, since only the three of them could use the "Power of Three" sisters. IN further girl successfully replaced Prue, although she had slightly different abilities.

Cole Turner

Having dealt with the main characters of the project, it is worth finding out who Cole Turner is?

He is a demon human soul. This character owes such a bizarre combination to his parents.

He inherited his magical powers from a demon mother. Cole's father was an ordinary man - politician Benjamin Coloridge Turner. From him the hero received a human soul.

This character was born in 1885 in California. When the boy was 3 years old, his mother killed his father right in front of him. In the future, Cole grew up among the demons, acquiring their habits and developing his abilities.

IN human world Turner settled well as a lawyer, so he helped the forces of evil settle their legal troubles.

Cole's alter ego Balthazar

Before you find out in which season of "Charmed" appears for the first time, it is worth dealing with the demonic essence of this character.

So, being half-demon, half-human, he could take on any of these guises. If in human form he was known as lawyer Cole Turner, then his demonic essence was called Balthazar. Only a few initiates knew that it was one and the same being.

Over the centuries of his life, Balthazar managed to earn the glory of a cruel demon, which even more ancient and experienced creatures were afraid of. He was a soldier of fortune, doing various errands for rewards.

Hired by the Triad to kill the Charmed Ones, Balthazar appears in their lives under the name of Assistant Prosecutor Cole Turner.

In what season of Charmed does Cole first appear?

Having figured out what kind of character it is, it’s worth moving on to the main question. So what season of Charmed does Cole (Balthazar) appear in?

Viewers and main characters first meet this hero in the first episode of the third season - “ Honeymoon finished." And although the Halliwell sisters have not yet suspected his true role, the audience has already been shown that Turner is a Triad mercenary who decided to destroy the Charmed Ones by seducing Phoebe.

Cole and Phoebe

Having studied in which season of "Charmed" Cole appears (photo below), it is worth finding out how his fate developed further. The calculation of the forces of evil turned out to be correct - their envoy in short time manages to fall in love with the gullible and a little narrow-minded Phoebe.

However, when the girl is in the power of a demon, he suddenly discovers that he himself has fallen in love with her. Because of this, the hero has to fight with himself. As a result, he not only does not kill the Charmed Ones, but also prevents other demons from doing so.

When the Triad finds out about Balthazar's betrayal, they are going to kill him, but the demon himself destroys them and hides. Now Cole is being hunted by both the Charmed Ones (at that time they did not know about his human nature), and the forces of evil.

The wounded Cole opens up to his beloved, and she helps him disappear by lying to her sisters that she killed the demon.

Wandering, Balthazar decides to go over to the side of good. He comes to the Halliwell house and confesses everything to the Charmed One. Subsequently, Cole manages to earn the trust of the sisters, and he fights evil with them.

However, the demons decide to punish the apostate and set him up. As a result, the sorceresses drive Turner away. Later, Phoebe realizes that she got excited and decides to help her beloved.

After Prue's death, Cole helps the sisters find Paige and convince her to join them. Later, he participates in the extermination of the Source of Evil (Master). However, due to side effect spells, Cole retains the forces of this creature, against his will, he gradually becomes a new Source of evil.

In the sequel, Cole manages to successfully hide his position from the Charmed Ones. He even marries Phoebe and soon they are expecting a son.

In the future, the wife of the Source of Evil learns the truth and, despite her strong love to him, along with the sisters, destroys Cole and the unborn child.

Cole's return

Having considered in which season of "Charmed" Cole appears, it is worth finding out when and how he returned.

After killing Balthazar in Season 4, the trio of sorceresses believed they had gotten rid of the creature for good. However, they were wrong.

Once in the Demon Valley, where the souls of all such creatures go, Cole did not disappear (as happens with others) due to the presence human soul. He found out how he could return to the human world and asked Phoebe for help, but ex-wife refused him.

This act was the last straw, and Turner finally lost the will to live. But by chance, he discovered that by killing other demons, he receives their powers. Thus, Cole manages to collect the required set of abilities and resurrect.

In the world of people, he is trying with all his might to do good and hopes to win Phoebe. However, the girl is adamant, all attempts to return her only harm.

Realizing that he could not be with the woman he loved, Turner tried to kill himself and found that he was not only immortal, but also invulnerable.

In the 5th season, the hero meets ancient powerful creatures - Avatars, and later becomes one of them. Using new strength, it creates parallel reality in which she and Phoebe stay together. But it turns out that while they are unhappy.

At the same time, Paige also manages to get into new reality and tell your sister the truth. Since events in the new world developed according to a different pattern, Turner lost his invulnerability in this way. As a result, the girls kill Cole on his birthday and he disappears.

In what season of Charmed does Cole appear for the last time?

It would seem that after the aforementioned events, Turner disappeared forever. However, life-giving fan love is capable of miracles. In which season of Charmed does Cole appear (return) again? The correct answer to this question is season 7, episode 16.

In the 150th anniversary episode of "The Return of Cole" (The Seven Year Witch), this character helps the spirit of a comatose Piper realize the importance of her relationship with Leo. In parallel, Cole asks her to help Phoebe not lose faith in love and find her happiness.

Also in this episode, Turner tells his story. It turns out that he is imprisoned in the vacuum of space and, although he is not able to contact the living, he can observe them and communicate with ghosts.

Later it turns out that it was he who helped the former demon Drake become a man and go over to the side of good.

The further fate of this character is not known, since he did not appear in the project again. The only thing is, the creators of the series hinted that Cole had some powers left.
