Short on water, Mr. Haney contracts Willie the Well-Witcher to find a new spot to dig a well. But once Mr. Haney gets water, the Douglases lose theirs. After Willie witches a new well for Oliver, the Ziffles' water dries up. After a few more rounds of this, Oliver suggests the valley get its water from a reservoir. That idea sounds great, until the valves are opened.

The title quotes Coleridge's "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner": "Water, water every where, / Nor any drop to drink."
For refreshments, Lisa serves Hotscakes a la Mode. She takes a hot hotcake and puts a cold one on top of it.
To settle who gets the water when a well is dug, The Stupid and Ridiculous Law of 1966 is used to amend the High Handed Code of 1912.
