Boss paused for a moment afraid of the girl's response. "Boss?" Callie said sternly. Boss jumped startled at the firmness of her voice. "Hughie was just here to see me and he let it slip that two of his men have taken Bo an' Luke and headed to the pond with them and I think they're plannin' on drownin' em." Boss said quickly. "Okay! Call Uncle Jesse and Rosco an' have em meet us there." She said, her voice trembling slightly. Boss wouldn't have noticed it except he'd never seen Callie lose control before and now it sounded like she just might go over the edge. "You got it." He said. "10-4." She responded.
Callie and Daisy headed for the pond praying they got there in time. Boss radioed Uncle Jesse and Rosco who were almost all the way to town so they turned around and headed for the pond to meet the girls followed in the rear by Boss and Cletus.
Balladeer: I sure hope they all get there in time cause even as we speak them baddies ain't up to no good.
Nick and Sam pulled the boys out of the backseat and placed them in the front seat after tying them up in case one or both of them woke up. Then after the boys were in place, they put the car in drive and pushed it towards the water, then stepped back and watched as the car rolled slowly over the bank and hit the water with a loud splash. "Let's get outta here before someone comes along and sees us out here." Sam said, turning away from the pond and heading back towards a car that was parked in the bushes where Hughie Hogg sat watching everything that was going on. "Them boys are as good as dead." Sam told him as he climbed in the back next to Hughie just as a familiar roar of an engine filled the air.
They saw the big orange stock car sweep into view and slide to a stop near the edge of the water, throwing dust up in the air. "It's Daisy Duke and that gal of Bo Duke's." Sam informed Hughie as the girls jumped out the windows of the car and ran to the edge of the water. Hughie laughed. "Well they're too late." He said as his driver started the engine and left the scene.
Bo came too as the car started filling up with water. He tried to swim to the surface but found his hands and feet were tied. He felt the coldness of the water seep through his clothes and wondered if he would ever see Callie again or if he and his cousin were gonna die in the water. His struggling was starting to prove futile as he started to lose consciousness. "I'm so sorry Callie. I love you." He thought as his eyes started to close.
Callie and Daisy arrived at the pond and Callie slammed on the brakes and sent the General into a partial skid before bringing him to a halt and jumping out the windows, running to the water and diving in, not hesitating once. Both girls swam down and reached the car within a matter of seconds. Since the windows were down on both sides it didn't take long for the girls too pull the boys out the windows and up to the surface. They somehow managed to drag the boys onto the bank and collapsed next to them, breathing hard, tears running down their cheeks.
Callie felt for Bo's pulse while Daisy felt for Luke's. Bo had a pulse but he wasn't breathing. She looked over at Daisy and nodded then leaned over Bo and covered his mouth with hers, breathing air into his lungs. Daisy had discovered Luke had no pulse and wasn't breathing so she had to do CPR.
Bo coughed and choked opening his eyes to meet Callie's concerned gaze as she stared down at him. He noticed she was wet and her long strawberry blond hair was slicked back out of her face, which meant she'd been the one to fish him out of the water. He pushed himself up on his elbows and reached for her, pulling her into his arms and hugging her tightly. He had no recollection of what happened but he knew that if he'd been down there any longer he'd be dead by now.
Sirens pierced the air as Boss, Cletus, Jesse and Rosco all arrived on the scene to find the girls at the edge of the pond fighting to save Luke's life, just as the ambulance pulled up. Rosco had called them and told em to come out to the pond. They rushed to help with Luke and though they wanted to take Bo to the hospital and get him checked out he flat out refused. "I'm fine." He said and got to his feet, heading for the General where Callie had left him when she and Daisy had been so intent on saving the boys.
The girls stepped back and watched as the EMT"s loaded Luke into the back of the ambulance and headed for the hospital. Jesse turned to the drenched girls and his nephew. "I'm gonna follow the ambulance. You three go back to the house an' get some dry clothes on before you come in." He said sternly. Bo opened his mouth to protest but Jesse's stern look stopped him. "Yes sir!" He said and slid through the driver's side window, settling behind the wheel and waited for the girls to join him. As Jesse set out with Rosco to follow the ambulance Bo and the girls headed back to the farm.
Balladeer: None of them Duke's realize it now, but they's bein' watched by a sneakier Hogg then ol' Boss. And this Hogg ain't liking what he's seein'. Callie and Daisy better watch out, cause if Hughie has his way as soon as he gets rid of them boys, the girls will be next. Stick around now.
