Two months ago, she had come into town in a little blue mustang. In truth, she had just been passing through but she was running on fumes, and her money was gone. She broke down right in the middle of main street, and Cooter had towed her car over to his garage. Jackie had decided to make a clean break from her life in Wisconsin, from the drama, from everything... She had to "get over" her past, and had just gotten into her car on January 2, 1980, and started driving for God-Knows-Where. Trying to be with Fez... that was a mistake she just could not make... Well, she ended up in Hazard County, Georgia.

The second person she met after Cooter Davenport was the most beautiful man she had ever laid eyes on, Bo Duke. He wasn't much older than her, 20 to her 19. The way his smile lit up a room, Jackie had never been so entranced by a man- not even Steven. Everything after that was a whirlwind. Within a month, they were engaged. Two weeks later, married. And, while some might have thought it was fast, Jackie just "knew". She knew from the moment she laid eyes on him, and he was a wonderful husband, and his family was great.

Which was good, considering they'd moved in with them. Originally, Luke and Bo had shared a room, but, Luke's bed had been moved in with Jesse, and Jackie and Bo got a bigger bed, Daisy still having her own room. When she had first moved into town, with not a cent to her person, she'd been forced to get the first job she could find, which was cleaning house for Boss Hogg and Miss Lulu. Miss Lulu was one of the sweetest women she'd met outside of Mrs. Foreman, but... she could only take so much working for Boss. She didn't know how Daisy had put up with it for so long. When Bo asked her to marry him, he'd actually gone and quit for her, which Uncle Jesse had taken umbrage with.

"I don't want any wife of mine cleaning house for that man," Bo had said, and that had been that.

Jackie really didn't mind; she hated being a maid...

But, getting back to today... they had been married for two weeks today, and most of the girls in town were still in shock, and spoke in whispers behind her back about "that out of town hussy who snagged their Bo". Jackie walked into the Boar's Nest to see Daisy, wearing a denim mini-skirt and flowered crop-top, her hair pulled back to one side.

"Hey, sugar," Daisy smiled at her new cousin. "How's it going?"

Jackie shrugged. "Went fishing with the boys this morning, which was nice, but Luke just left without us knowing it. Weird."

Daisy raised an eyebrow. "Y'all didn't notice?"

"Not till he was gone, no. And he took the car."

Daisy chuckled. "What were y'all doin' that you 'didn't notice' he was gone?"

Jackie flushed. "Well, Bo had his pole lined up on a stick so he didn't have to hold it, so we went to look at some of the... nature stuff... um..."

"Um... yeah, thought so." Daisy laughed. "You're newlyweds, that's to be expected."

Jackie flushed with a shy smile, until Lisa Sue looked over at her. "You know, he oughtta get over this silly little phase of his any day now." she blurted.

Jackie frowned. "Silly little phase?" she echoed.

"Yep... as in, you. He's gonna realize he wants a real woman, not someone so bitsy and delicate and... well..."

"Jewish?" Jackie asked, an edge to her tone.

"You are?" Lisa Sue asked, eyes wide.

"Yes, I'm sure my husband would rather have a big fat slore like you... whatever your name is."

"I've had him- more than once. And he comes back 'round for a reason, sugarpants."

"Ah, Lisa Sue, I think you've had about enough to drink..." Daisy said hesitantly.

"Oh, no, Daisy... I think she could use plenty more..." Jackie said, grabbing her by the back of the head and slamming it into the pitcher of beer...
