On Valentine's Day, Phoebe discovers that the girls in her college study group have used a book of love spells to turn three animals into men for a romantic evening. Unfortunately, the men retain dangerous animalistic qualities and begin attacking innocent students. While Janice Robinson performs at the club, Phoebe accidentally creates a real zoo when her attempt to reverse the spell turns all her patrons into animals. Meanwhile Prue tries to adjust to her new unemployed lifestyle, and Piper's Valentine's Day dinner with Dan is complicated by the constant presence of her former Guardian Angel-turned-mortal Leo, who is now working at the club.
