Trouble (3,5)

Ross

'trouble' is the definition.
(to get in hot water is to get in trouble)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for hot water that I've seen before include "This could mean trouble!" , "Predicament to be avoided (informal)" , "Trouble or disgrace, being in thermal H2O" , "Bed warmer" , "Uncomfortable predicament to be in?" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press and The Sunday Times.
