After being with them for more than a month, Cáit’s mother gives birth and requests that the Cinnsealachs return her in time for school. Even though Cáit, Eibhln, and Seán are heartbroken to part ways, they consent to take Cáit to her biological family. To evade her nasty parents, Cáit sneaks to the well to get water, but her quickly filled bucket pulls her in. When searching for Cáit, Eibhln discovers her wet and upset as she leaves the well.
