Will's paranoia comes to the fore.

Ruth tells Phil the water at Brookfield has been cut off without warning. David confirms there are emergency repairs due to a leaky main. They don't think the water company realises how much water dairy cows need. Ruth and David discuss the trouble between Ed and Will the previous evening. The water comes back on just in time for Eddie to get the cows in for milking.

Returning from town, Jill and Phil stop, as Phil thinks he has spotted another kite. Will appears and asks what they are looking at, leaving them both feeling very awkward. Later, at the shop, Jill bumps into Clarrie who is upset about Derek Fletcher and others speculating about her William. Word has also got round about the row in the pub.

Protective Eddie visits Will at work. Will is angry, especially after the things Ed said about Nic. Eddie tells him to try to turn the other cheek, even though that's not easy. He wants Will to make his peace with Ed but Will won't be persuaded. Clarrie and Eddie are concerned, as Ed and Will were starting to be civil but now they're right back where they started!
