Title: Alternate Ending to "Swamp Molly"
Rating: PG-13
Disclaimer: Don't own them…and you know the rest.
Summary: Remember the ending when they tried to get the truck into the water and Rosco rammed right in to it? Remember Bo being in the truck when Rosco hit? Well this is my version of the ending.
This picks up when Luke shoots out the tire on the truck….
Luke quickly ducked as the dynamite arrow flew through the air.
Everything was just going along great…until the arrow impacted the tire and didn't explode.
Looking up, Luke stared at the arrow embedded in the tire as Bo came over to him with a silly grin on his face.
The youngest Duke made some smart mouth comment to Luke, who glared at his cousin for a second before Uncle Jesse brought to their attention the fact that there were now police car sirens in the distance, growing louder.
"Let's back er' up so Bo can get a run at it." Jesse suggested as the Duke clan surrounded the truck.
Bo climbed into the driver's seat and started the engine while Uncle Jesse, Daisy and Luke took up positions on the sides of the truck, trying to push it into the water.
When the truck didn't move, Uncle Jesse barked at Cousin Alice to make her lend a hand.
Cousin Alice rolled her eyes slightly as she stomped over to them and gave them a hand.
With the extra power, the truck began to move, but by then it was to late.
Luke looked down the road as the police car with Boss and Rosco came speeding towards them, at high speed!
"He's gonna hit us!" Luke said as he ran away from the truck, towards the bushes on the far side of the road, while Jesse, Daisy and Cousin Alice did the same.
Bo, who was still in the truck, just had time to see the police car coming straight towards him.
"Oh no." Bo said with a grimace as he slammed himself into the driver's seat, clung on to the steering wheel in a death grip, and shut his eyes, knowing what was coming.
He wasn't disappointed, for within a grand total of five seconds, the police car had smashed the bumper, sending the truck shooting forward and into the water, which at the bottom had a lot of quicksand that was rumored to go all the way to China.
When the police car collided with the truck, Bo's body was propelled forward slightly, to be jerked to a halt by the seat belt, but, since Bo was so tall, the seat belt didn't do his head any good, for his head snapped forward and connected with the steering wheel, causing Bo to take an unaccustomed afternoon nap that he hadn't been planning on doing!
The truck slammed into the water and quickly sunk, being immersed in the quicksand.
"Bo!" Daisy exclaimed as she realized that her youngest cousin had never made it out of the truck.
Luke looked at Daisy for a split second, wondering what she was talking about, but when Daisy started for the water, Bo's image slapped into Luke's mind as he followed her and the other's to the water's edge.
They all gazed at the water, hoping to see Bo's head pop up, but their hopes were soon dashed slightly when Rosco's not so slightly imposing figure started to talk to them, drawing their attention away from the water.
"Alright you Duke's are under arrest, and the truck is under….really under." Rosco said as he finally got a look at the truck and evidence that would have put Bo and Luke away for their natural lives.
After several more seconds without Bo, Luke's fears began to get the worst of him.
"I'm goin' in." Luke said in a tone of voice that brooked no argument from anyone!
Uncle Jesse just nodded and watched Luke dive into the water looking for Bo.
