When Cooter and Jesse are looking out the window when they heard an
explosion, both of them saw that the barn was on fire. They ran outside and
suddenly Cooter heard Bo yelling from the hayloft,"COOTER, UNCLE JESSE,
HELP ME!" "PLEASE, HELP ME!" All of a sudden, they hear several beams that
held the hayloft came crashing to the ground, Cooter tells Jesse to run
into the house and call the fire department and the ambulance." " I will
get Bo out of the barn." He runs into the barn to rescue Bo. By the time
that Jesse comes back outside from calling the fire department, Cooter had
Bo lying on the ground. Jesse saw that Cooter had grabbed the bucket near
the farm house, filled it with water, then stuck Bo's burned hands into it
to save his hands from getting any worse. He found a rag and soaked it into
the water and applied it to Bo's right cheek and neck that was burned.
When the ambulance arrived and loaded Bo into the back, Jesse asked if he
could ride along. The one of the paramedics saw the condition of the boy,
he said," Sure, you can ride along and comfort him." Cooter told Jesse that
he will be driving back to town and get a message to Luke about what had
happen.
After the ambulance left, Cooter started his drive back to town and saw the pickup truck coming towards him and pulled his tow truck to a stop and Luke stopped a minute later. Luke asked, " What's up Cooter." Cooter replied, Luke, something happen at the farm, the barn burned down and the ambulance took your cousin to tri-county hospital. He has burns on his hands and the right side of his cheek and neck. I am on my way to the hospital." Luke answered, "I am right behind you, Cooter."
