Season 2, Episode 16
Guardian Angel
28 September 2016
Warning: Spoilers
Murphy's Luck is a favorite as Maggie Murphy attempts suicide because of bad luck following her thinking of Prue as a guardian Angel. Meanwhile a darklighter after her focuses his attention on the witch that saved her. I love Maggie Murphy finding her very vulnerable, sympathetic and wanting her life to turn around after the under world decided to ruin her after doing good. Her reference to Prue as a guardian Angel strike true as witches help people, protect them from evil and guide them when called for. The darklighter is unique in he only goes after those who have potential to be become whitelighters upon death and push them to suicide before they have a chance to. When Leo orbs him out to find out about others on his list I wonder what techniques they have to get information and if I'm not mistaken wouldn't it be dangerous to take him to the heavens since their arrows are poisonous.

Another factor is we learn Prue once attempted suicide when she was a teenager and was involved in an accident hurting Phoebe. Prue is always shown as strong, in charge, and accomplish anything she sets her mind to showing the viewers their is always hope for tomorrow to anyone. Very powerful message that I hope got through to the audience as it did to me since most who end their lives think today is all they have and problems won't go away.
