Lorne: Now, I want you to relax. Picture yourself outdoors, in a field, or on a mountain.
Cordy: I like the mountains.
Lorne: Beautiful. Say you're on a mountaintop, and it's warm. The sky is blue, full of big, fluffy clouds. You're Julie Andrews in 'The Sound of Music.' And you're relaxed and you're spinning and the camera is swirling and - ouch! (Lorne recoils from Cordy) Careful, honey, you've got some power of your own!
Cordy: Sorry. All the spinning and swirling was freaking me out.

~~That Vision Thing~~
