"Well would ya looky there" Hughie noticed " She turned me down for a Duke"
Daisy followed his sight towards the bar "My cousin Coy's date" She said nonchalantly as she watched them getting cosy at the bar. "You
prefer her to me"
"No, no, no" Hughie turned his attention to Daisy "I hadn't seen you when I spoke to her. Why don't we go to Uncle Boss's office and have a
quiet drink there"
"Why don't we have another just here first" she smiled
.
Coy kissed Tilly gently "I can't believe we're getting away with this with all the others here"
She smiled "Like my plan?"
"Sure do." He squeezed her hand in his and kissed it as Bo and Luke came in
"OH heck. This could go badly" Tilly looked nervously towards Bo and Luke
"Take it easy" Coy grinned as he twiddled her hair in his fingers.
Bo and Luke looked around the room, looking for all their cousins in turn and not quite believing what they were seeing. Daisy escaping the
clutches of Hughie, Coy and Tilly getting entirely too close at the bar and Vance and Judd just sitting drinking beer at the table like any other
day.
Vance and Judd caught their eyes and Bo and Luke shook their heads gently. Daisy noticed too
"Bo! Luke! Over here!" Vance called loudly trying to stop them saying anything "We'll get you a beer"
"What the heck's goin' on in here, its like some alternate life" Luke said looking round as he sat down.
"A little shucking Cuz. Just play along" Vance informed them
"Daisy's fine. She ain't given the sign yet" Judd said watching her
"Sign?" Bo looked puzzled.
"Hughie's on the move." Vance noted
"And if there's papers, he's got them on him" Luke's eyes roamed the room checking out where everyone was.
Tilly headed Hughie off and spoke to him quietly. He tried to make a grab for her but she ducked out of his way and smiled sweetly. Vance
went to the bar and whispered to Coy as he loudly ordered more beers. Tilly looked over at Coy, pretending to play Hughie while Coy wasn't
watching, running a finger along his arm. He grinned as she ducked away from him again. Hughie spoke to the hench men indicating to the
door as he handed them the briefcase. Coy leaned forward and whispered to Tilly what was going on as she sat back down, running his hands
along her arms. She hid a smile as he kissed her ear, before pushing him away.
"Coy Duke! What kinda girl d'ya think I am!"
"Come on Babe" He tried to reason with her
She slapped his cheek, knocking him off the stool into Vance behind him. Vance accidentally on purpose spilt the beers he was holding onto
Hughie's men causing a fight. Hughie ducked as he tried to keep out of the way. Daisy took the opportunity to grab the case and passed it off
to Tilly as the boys were all defending each other and causing more mayhem in the process. Tilly ducked a flying chair and passed the case off
to Bo who used it to hit his assailant before passing it off to Coy. He used it himself against a flying glass. He grabbed Tilly's arm, and gave her
the case. "Get outta here" He kissed her quickly and grinned as he turned back to the fight. Tilly hid the case outside behind a bush and
returned to Daisy and Hughie.
"Mr Hogg. Please get me outta here" She whined innocently looking scared.
"What?" Hughie ducked back down behind a table
"I shoulda come with you instead of that Coy Duke." She played to his macho pride.
Hughie puffed himself up with a grin before quickly ducking a flying object. "Come on" He yelled running for the door with Daisy and Tilly behind
him.
Outside he smiled and lit up a cigar as he watched Rosco and Cletus rush in to break up the fight.
"Well, ladies" He put an arm round each of them."How about a little night cap?"
"I'm sorry Hughie. I better go check on my cousins" Daisy said apologetically
"And I'd better just go" Tilly said backing off.
Bo, Luke, Coy, Vance and Judd bundled out of the back door of the bar.
"Well maybe just... " She pushed him around the corner out of sight
"I knew you wouldn't be able to resist me" Hughie grinned taking her hand and pulling her towards him, trying to kiss her.
Daisy stuck her head round the corner "Ready?"
"Definitely" Tilly wriggled out of Hughies grasp. "Another time Hughie"
"What? Who?" Hughie stood looking totally confused
.
Tilly ran for the case and launched it at the General as it sped passed. Luke caught it as it hit the window frame and nearly fell out.
"Nice throw" Coy put a hand on her shoulder. He grabbed her hand "Come on" He pulled her towards his car and they raced off after them.
They all met up at one of the still sites to examine the contents of the case.
"What in the heck was going on in there?" Luke asked as he picked the lock.
The others looked at each other and laughed.
"Just a little distraction" Daisy grinned "But next time I check the office, you get Hughie"
Luke pulled a face at her "What about you two?" He looked at Coy and Tilly.
"Did what we had to" Coy shrugged
"Ya didn't have to kiss me though" Tilly complained rubbing her mouth with the sleeve of her jacket. "I'll have nightmares about that for
months"
"His kisses have given a lotta girls nightmares" Bo teased
"Twice" Daisy commented
"What!" Judd piped up
"He kissed her twice" Daisy explained
"Had to make it look real. And you didn't have to slap me so hard. I can still feel it" He said to Tilly rubbing his cheek and avoiding Daisy's look.
"Had to make it look real" she grinned at him. "Kiss me again and I'll make sure it is" She added pretending to be cross with him.
"Got it" Luke pinged open the case.
Coy, Tilly and Judd watched as the others flicked through the papers.
"Uh Oh!" Daisy exclaimed "Boss is in real trouble. Says here that Hughie is gonna have him declared unfit so's he could take control"
Luke took the papers and looked them over.
"Looks like you called it right Luke!" Tilly spoke as she looked at the papers he was holding.
"That ain't all." Bo said "He's gonna sell off land all over Hazzard to some development company. They're gonna build housing estates all over"
"We can't let him do that" Daisy said "It'll ruin the place"
"He won't. Not if he don't take over." Vance said
"We gotta get copies of these" Luke spoke seriously. "Then we'd better let Boss know"
"We'd better let Uncle Jesse know too" Daisy sighed
