Two brothers are incensed that their neighbors have put down a well that has dried up the well on their property so they lay pipe to divert the water back down to the well on their property. The channel works and they drink their fill of the water, until a water delivery man mentions that he was bringing up some water to the neighbors because some pesticides accidentally got dumped into their well, poisoning the water.
