Jesse, Bo, Luke, Cooter, and Daisy were now tearing up all the roads in Hazzard in search of Roscoe and Cletus. Everyone in the General was tense. All of them had their eyes peeled for either Roscoe or Cletus. They checked all of their speed traps, but there was no sign of them.

Bo hit the steering wheel in frustration. "Dangit! Leave it ta Roscoe and Cletus ta not be around when there's trouble! If we don't find 'em soon we're gonna hafta go after them men ourselves! We can't let 'um hurt Angel!"

"Now, Bo. I know your're worried...we all are, but we cain't rush into things. That won't do anybody any good. Let's look around for Roscoe a mite longer. Try headin' inta town. He may well be at J.D's office in the jail house. That's where he usually is when he ain't chasin' you two for some trumped up charge."

"Yes, sir." Bo did a 180 in the General and sped off for Boss Hogg's office at the jail, hoping that it wouldn't turn up to be another dead end.

Uncle Jesse hit the nail on the head. Roscoe and Cletus are at the jail with Boss, but I bet they wish they was elsewhere with the tellin' off they're gettin' for losin' the Dukes. Won't they be surprised when the Dukes come to them?

"Roscoe! Cletus! You two jackasses ain't got the smarts that God gave to a piece o' toast! You done lost my $10,000 again, and then ya had the gumption ta come here to tell me about it!"

"Awww c'mon Cousin Boss! They had cleared outta there before we even got there! It's not our fault!

"Don't you 'Cousin Boss' me, Cletus! I'll make you my ex-cousin if'n ya don't go and find them Dukes! And Roscoe, you'll be workin' at Shorty's All-Night Rib Shack! Now git going!"

Roscoe and Cletus nodded and were on their way to the door when it swung inward and knocked Cletus and Roscoe to the ground. They struggled to get up and when they finally managed this task, they saw all the Dukes, plus an additional Cooter, standing there looking frantic. Boss, who had returned to his office, came rushing out to see what the ruckus was.

"It's the Dukes! Roscoe, Cletus! It's them Dukes! Do your job!"

"Allllright you Dukes, freeee--" Roscoe's sentance was cut short as Uncle Jesse stepped up to him, looking mad enough to spit.

"ROSCOE! You hold it right there! I know you lot are trying ta pin kidnappin' on my boys, an' you're wrong! These boys didn't knidnap that lil' girl, and now they're trying ta save her life so you LISTEN UP!"

Roscoe, Cletus and even Boss were speechless for a moment. Luke took this opportunity to speak his piece. "Now look, the girls name is Angel. She's from up in Hotlanta an' she's an orphan. She saw a bank robbery up there and the two men involved grabbed her and were gonna kill her, but she got away an' hid the money. Now they have her again an' as soon as they get their money, they're gonna finish the job! We need your help...Please Roscoe, Boss."

"How come you Duke boys need our help? Ya don't usually need our help."

"Because, Dangit! They got guns and we don't! Now are ya gonna help us or not, 'cause we're runnin' out of time!"

"Simmer down, Bo. Well, are ya gonna help or not Roscoe? Who knows, J.D, there's probably a reward for catchin' them two."

"A reward! Well when you put it like that Jesse...Roscoe, Cletus! You two go and arrest those two and bring me that reward! Oh! And help that poor lil' girl too."

They all ran to their vehicles and started off for the Duke farm, hoping that it wasn't already too late.

---------------------------------------------

Meanwhile, Dave, Doug, and Angel were just arriving at the Duke farm. They had been delayed for a short time by a flat tire. They parked in front of the house and dragged Angel out of the car. They shoved her in front of them and, with the barrel of the gun shoved against her back, forced her to lead them to the barn where the money lay. They entered the barn and stopped.

"You say the money is in the loft?" Angel nodded, "It had better be. Dave, you stay down here with her while I search the loft. Keep an eye out just in case."

Dave held Angel close and kept the gun hovering about her. He only had to wait a few moments until he heard Dave shout from above.

"I FOUND IT!"

Uhhhh-ooohhhh. I hope them Dukes hurry. They got the Cavalry now they need to get to the Battle before it's too late.
