After the ambulance left, Cooter started his drive back to town, he saw the
pickup truck coming towards him. He 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."
After arriving at the hospital, Luke and Cooter found Jesse in the waiting room. They asked how Bo was and he said that they have not come out yet to tell them the news. So they all took a seat and waited for someone to tell them what was happening. Two hours later, a doctor entered the waiting room, he asked, "Are you the family of Bo Duke, Sir." Jesse answered, "Yes, I am Bo's uncle, what is the news on my nephew." The doctor replied, " Your nephew has second degree burns to his right side of his cheek and neck as well as his hands. I was told that a friend had saved his hands by putting them in a bucket of water and it saved his hands in what could have been a crippling burn." Jesse asked if they could see Bo and the doctor said they could but one at a time and they would need to wear the paper robs and hand gloves to protect Bo from any infections.
Luke said, " Uncle Jesse, you should be the first one to see him." "I will wait till you come back out and besides I am going to get some air." After Luke sees his uncle leave towards Bo's room, he goes outside to smoke and he remembered he had left another pack of cigarettes in the pocket of his jacket he was wearing that he grabbed from his locker earlier that day and realized they were still in his pocket. He found a quiet place that was hidden by part of the building and began to smoke for an hour. When Jesse came back to the waiting room an hour later, Cooter told him that Luke hasn't come back yet from getting some fresh air. This made Jesse mad because Bo was asking for Luke and he wanted to see his cousin. How would he tell Bo that his cousin left because he didn't care enough to be there to support him. When Jesse came back he told Bo that Luke went out to get some fresh air and they couldn't find him. This made Bo sad and he began to cry and said that Luke probably does not want to see him because he looks like some freak. Uncle Jesse said, " Bo, you know that ain't true and Cooter and I will go look for him. As Jesse left Bo there crying, he went back out and still saw that Luke wasn't there still and he asked Cooter to help him look for Luke.
