Life as the Dukes knew it was no more at least Luke was still hanging on but the chances of him wakin' up are very slim.

When Jesse woke up this mornin' and saw Bo's bed empty he didn't know what to think he started to painic.

So he called on over to Cooter's see if he went over their Cooter told him that he ain't seen Bo.

Then he tried callin' on over to the Boars Nest too figurin' Bo may have gone to wet his whistle.

" No unca Jesse Bo ain't been in here all mornin' sorry I ain't seen him ". replied Daisy

Then Jesse hung up the phone and he tried to keep his wits about him , tried to not let his mind go on trips.

Meanwhile Bo had drivin' the general to Crystal Lake bridge Bo needed answers , although he would never admit this

to Jesse or Daisy Bo wanted revenge on the person that hurt Luke and he wanted him to pay for all the pain he caused.

Bo figured for the amount of pain this guy caused Luke he should get sent to prison for life.

Bo was so lost in thought he didn't hear the sound of a police cruiser comin'down the road he got very mad.

" Rosco what in the heck are you doin' here?, if it's to arrest me you can just forget it"!. replied Bo angerily".

" Bo I ain't here fer that now I just wanted to ask ya how Luke is doin'?". said Rosco curiously

" Well um...", he's still the same he ain't woken up yet ", have you gotton the guy that done this?".asked Bo

" Yes we do but unfortunately we ain't got enough evidence against him for proof I can't hold him for long". said Rosco

" Well then if you want proof then here is Luke's ring that rotton skunk pulled it off of Luke's finger". said Bo

" Are you sure about this you better not be lyin' to me ?". asked Rosco

" ROsco I ain't LYING' this ring has Luke's blood on it ain't that proof enough for ya!". said Bo angrily

" Okay I'll take it for evidence but if you is lyin' I'm gonna cuff ya and stuff ya kee kee ". said Rosco

" Rosco for the last time I ain't lyin' that guy pulled that ring off of Luke's finger !".

" Okay fine I"m leavin' now and I"m takin' this here ring back with me for evidence". said Rosco

Meanwhile over at the hospital all the tests that Doc. Applebee rang on Luke was showin'brain activity.

But unfortunately he just wasn't wakin' up which only told doc. Applebee that Luke may remain a vegetable.

Meanwhile Jesse was just now pullin' into the hospital parking lot to visit Luke hopin' that he was awake by now.

but unfortunately lady luck wasn't on the Dukes side this time Luke still remained in a comatose state.

" Mornin' Doc how's Luke doin?". asked Jesse curiously

" I wish I could say that he was doin' better but he ain't let's go into my office and chat".

" Jesse all the tests I ran on Luke came back normal but he just ain't wakin' up for some reason.

" Doc please you can't be serious Luke can't remain a vegetable there must be somethin' you can do please". begged Jesse

" Now I've done some research and I've found a place called summer breeze they dealed with patients like Luke. said Doc

" Doc I... don't like the idea of sendin' Luke to place like that what are Luke's chances of waking up?". asked Jesse

" I would say his chances are 50% providin' he don't suffer any more complications". replied

" Jesse I could keep Luke here for another week but if he don't wake up soon I may have to send him". said Doc

"Jesse's heart broke after hearin' that news he wanted nothin' more then to take Luke home everythin' back to normal."

Meanwhile Bo was now pullin' into Boars Nest to wet his whistle and to catch up on the town gossip.

" Hey Bo how doin' buddy?, asked Cooter who was sitting at the bar drinking a beer".

" Not too good cooter I can't stand seein' LUke layin' in that hospital bed not bein' able to do nothin'". said Bo

" I just wish I could figure out why they guy took Luke's ring it was like some sick trophy to him ". said Bo

It was his daddy's wedding band he never went anywhere without it " choked Bo showing the engraved initials on the inside: R+R. "See there Rob an' Rachel his folks "Bo shook his head, his tears now flowing freely down his cheeks. "Was always on his pinky he he swam with it bathed with it .slept with it .it was taken offa him .he took it!"

Cooter swallowed seeing Bo starting to break down. "Bo "

"He took it!" continued the blond with a sob. "He was bleeding dying and he took it!"

" I just... gotta get to the bottom of this cooter I owe it to Luke". replied Bo

Meanwhile at Hazzard Police station a jailbreak was about to take place on account of Enos was busy going through the posters

so Parker slowly opened the gate and he was makin' his way outside when flash started barking to let Enos know .

" Hush now Flash I'm busy I already gave you some of them doggy treats". said Enos

" Oh No I don't like the sound of this with that guy on the loose again how is Bo supposed to save Luke now".

Meanwhile back over at the hospital Jesse was praying that Luke would make some kind of sign that he was awake.

" Luke please boy open your eyes ", c'mon you can't stay asleep forever you gotta wake up ". said Jesse

Suddenly Jesse heard a very soft sound he could almost barely hear it then he looked down and saw it was coming from Luke.

" Luke are you okay ?", are you in alot of pain do you want me to get the nurse?". asked Jesse

" Luke let out a little moan which told Jesse that he was in alot of pain and that he needed some medicene.

So Jesse left Luke's room and he went in search of a nurse and Luke's nurse happened to be walking the hall.

" Excuse me ma'am my nephew Luke is in alot of pain and he sure could use some pain medicene". asked Jesse

Before the nurse followed Jesse into Luke's room she looked at the clock to see if it was time for Luke's next dose.

When they entered the room the nurse could tell Luke was strugglin' on account of he looked awfully restless on the bed.

" Seein' as how Luke was in alot of pain the nurse figured she would help Luke out by puttin' some medicene in his IV".

It took about 15 minutes for the medicene to take affect but once it worked Luke feel back into a deep slumber.

"Meanwhile back at the Boars Nest Bo was still drownin' his sorrows in beer and Cooter was tryin' his best to cheer Bo up.""

" Bo c'mon buddy you gotta cheer up LUke will be okay buddy you'll see ". said Cooter

" I don't know Cooter you ain't seen him he look's really bad I'm scared". said Bo as he was sobbing away".

" C'mon Bo you know Luke he's a survivor he'll make it through this he's too tough to die". said Cooter reassuringly

After Bo had finally calmed down enough he began to realize that he was gonna have to start gathering the clues together.

on account of he needed to find the guy that was behind this seein' as how Luke was runnin' out of time.

Meanwhile the guy that had broken out of the jail was now meetin' up with his partner at the old Hazzard Coffin Works.

" Hey Buddy how you been heard you got arrested ", what a shame that dummy of a sheriff ain't gonna catch me". laughed randy

" Well our goose is cooked anyhow on account of it won't take long for the sheriff , the deputy to put 2x2 together".

" Oh please as dumb as he is he ain't gonna figure it out so quit worryin'". assured Randy

" Oh really well that ring you swipped off his finger is proof enough". said Parker

Meanwhile back at the hospital Luke was still under very heavy sedation so he wouldn't try to wake up on his own.

Anyway Bo was just now walkin' into Luke's room and it took all he had to hold the tears inside he couldn't stand seeing

Luke look so helpless and fragile and not bein' able to do anythin' about it. Not to mention he also was feelin' guilty.

" Oh... ", Luke please wake up ... Please don't leave me ". begged Bo

" I'm so sorry I didn't mean to tell ya never to come back I ... I... miss ya cousin please come back". said Bo

Then all of sudden Luke's eyelids began to move an Bo could tell that Luke was tryin' to wake up .

" Luke that's it c'mon wake up now , c'mon you can do it". encourged Bo

Luke could only manage to open his eyes halfway and he started lookin' around the room and then he saw a strange face".

Then he got a fearful look on his face and he started going into a painic and he didn't know who was lookin' at him.

" Luke it's okay , it's me Bo ". reassured Bo

It broke Bo's heart to see Luke look at him like he ain't never seen him before so Bo went off to get the doctor ".

" Doc somethin's wrong with Luke he's lookin' at me like he ain't never seen me fore" said Bo

So Doc. Applebee followed Bo back into Luke's room and he asked Luke some question's Luke didn't respond.

" Luke it's okay I ain't gonna hurt you none, do you remember your name ?".

All Luke did was give Doc. Applebee a glazed look like he didn't know what in the devil he was talkin ' about.

Finally Doc. asked Bo if he could speak to him outside so Bo followed him out into the hallway.

" Bo it appears that Luke is sufferin' from a case of brain damage , Amnesia in time he should return to normal".

" But doc you can't be serious Luke can't have brain damage Luke has to be able to function"!". said Bo

" Bo I'm sorry it's a matter of fate Luke will be normal again in time he stands a chance of a full recovery.

Bo couldn't believe what he was hearin' he collapsed on the bench and sobbed away ".

" Talk about Bad Luck In the Dukes case when it rain's it Pours".
