Charlie and Lydia contend with one of their neighbors learning about the fact Lydia allows Charlie to spank her. The damage to their sense of privacy is enormous, especially as Lydia continues to cope with how she feels about Charlie having forcibly spanked her a few months earlier. The two struggle to find a renewed sense of privacy and to rebuild the trust Charlie's actions damaged, no matter that even Lydia acknowledges his actions were justified. As they deal with this, Lydia also makes a fateful decision about clearing out the snow from a heavy snowfall, a decision that gets her cross-wise with Charlie once again over her safety and how to get her to make safer, better decisions.
