Chapter 4

Bo was driving around in Cooter's pickup truck. He saw Enos's patrol car coming around a bend and turned his head around the other way.

Enos never noticed his blonde head, and Bo laughed to himself.

Cooter had the same pleasure, but for a different reason. When Enos saw the General Lee, he turned on his sirens and pulled Cooter over.

As Enos walked up to the General's window, Cooter smirked to himself. "Hiya, Enos," he said, still smirking.

Enos looked confused. "Sorry, Cooter. I done got the wrong guy. You have a good day, now." While Enos walked away, Cooter burst out laughing.

When Enos got back to his car, he picked up his radio transmitter. "Come in Sheriff, come in. This yer inferior officer speakin'."

"What is it Enos, did ya git them Duke boys, Enos?" Rosco asked irritably.

"No, sir. Cooter's in the General Lee, not Bo."

"Ooooo, that dang Cooter! Well, if ya see Cooter's pickup, Bo might be there, along with them weapons!" Rosco did his funny laugh again. Man, I've always wondered how he does that.

Bo and Cooter met up again at Cooter's garage. They were planning to switch cars again. They were going to leave the weapons where they were. The question is, are they in the General, or in Cooter's truck? Your guess is as good as mine.

Of course, Rosco caught up to Cooter and pulled him over. "Hey, Rosco," said Cooter grinning.

Rosco was fuming at this. He started to mumble and mutter in that totally strange way of his again.

Cooter just smirked. He, like the Dukes, took a lot of joy in messing with Rosco's head.

Meanwhile, Luke headed back to the farm to get some bows and arrows, and some dynamite. What the heck it was for, I guess we'll find out. Anyways, he saw Enos's patrol car parked in the driveway.

Probably inside talkin' ta Uncle Jesse, Luke thought.

He crept around to the window to see what they were talking about. Or in this case, listen to what they were talking about.

"Well, I'm sorry Enos, they ain't here," Luke heard Jesse say. "I ain't seen 'em in a few hours. But what's really on yer mind, Enos?"

"Actually Uncle Jesse," said Enos. "I don't wanna find Bo and Luke. They didn't do nothin' wrong. It was Boss Hogg and that purty little niece o' his that framed them up, but if I don't help them, I'll lose my job, and I don't want that neither. What should I do, Uncle Jesse?"

Good ol' Enos. I think he's smarter than Boss Hogg and Rosco put together.

"Well, good fer you, Enos. At least ya understand it is wrong; that makes ya a stronger man than Boss Hogg and Rosco," Jesse said. "I guess all ya can do now is go out there and pretend to look fer 'em. I ain't to keen on lyin,' but that's really the only way you can help Bo and Luke ta justice an' still keep yer job that I can see."

"But what if I accidentally find them?" Enos asked.

"Well, you can either take 'em down to the police station, or ya can let 'em go and not ever tell nobody," said Uncle Jesse. "The choice is yers."

"Thank you, Uncle Jesse," said Enos.

Luke smiled to himself after hearing this conversation. They had Enos on their side, without Boss Hogg and Rosco knowing it.

Bo and Cooter showed up at a "secret spot" that Luke told them to go to. As soon as Luke showed up with some bows and arrows and dynamite, he handed some to Bo.

"How do ya know Rosco an' Enos didn't follow ya?" Bo asked.

"Well," said Luke, "'cuz Enos is at the farm tellin' Uncle Jesse about how he don't wanna find us, and Uncle Jesse said fer him ta just pretend to look. Guess Enos is on our side now."

Bo smiled. "Cool. And Rosco?"

"Oh," said Luke with a big grin on his face. "Daisy's takin' care o' ol' Rosco."

Boy, was she ever. Daisy goes to the police station with—oh, boy, you'll never guess—a shaving cream pie disguised as a chocolate pie with whipped cream spread all across the top.

Now get yer bars of soap ready and yer showers warm, this is gonna get messy.

She went inside and went to the sheriff's office. Upon seeing Rosco, she said," Hey Rosco. You've been workin' real hard all day. How 'bout a snack?"

"No, thank you, Daisy Duke," said Rosco. "I ain't fallin' fer no Duke tricks today.

Wanna bet?

"Are you sure?" asked Daisy all seductive-like. "It's chocolate pie, with whipped cream spread all over the top."

"Well, maybe just a slice wouldn't hurt." Guess Rosco's just a sucker for chocolate pie.

"Oh, why not take the whole pie?" Now here comes the part ya'll have been waitin' for. SMACK! Now Rosco's face is as white as everything Boss Hogg owns.

As Enos would say, possum on a gum bush! I've never seen Rosco this mad before. But that's what Daisy wanted, and as she went out to her car, Rosco of course followed, and he hadn't bothered to wipe the "chocolate" pie off his face.

And another car chase begins.

While Daisy was distracting ol' Rosco, Bo took the General Lee somewhere away from everything. He opened the trunk and took out the box of weapons.

Aha! That's where they were!

He set them on the ground and drove the General about 100 yards away from everything, and then stopped. He got out with his bow, arrow, and a stick of dynamite.

Five seconds later-BOOM! Those weapons are now crispy critters. Bo got back in the General and drove off.

Now I bet ya'll are wonderin' about Kristen. Don't worry; she's safe in the back of the Boar's Nest, with her uncle Boss.

"Oh, good job, sweet Kristy! You can expect that hundred grand early, maybe in your Christmas stocking!" Boss exclaimed. "Wait, shouldn't get too carried away."

As a Hogg, Kristen wished she'd get her money now, but she knew that would never happen. Then she heard a voice over the CB radio.

"Boss, come in Boss! (Insert funny laugh here)" Rosco said.

"What is it Rosco?" said Boss. "Can't you see I'm busy?"

"Well, no, Boss, I can't see you, we're over the CB, aren't we?" said Rosco, confused.

"Yeah, I know that! What do you want?"

"I'm in hot pursuit of Daisy Duke, Boss! Over," Rosco replied.

"Why are you in pursuit of Daisy? You need to be in pursuit of Bo and Luke! Over."

"Gotcha Boss! I'll get 'em, don't you worry! Over and out!" said Rosco.

Boss turned back to Kristen. "Anyways, I'm proud of what you've done."

"Thanks, Uncle Boss," said Kristen, emphasizing on the word "Boss." She beamed with pride, all guilt of doing what she did to Bo now gone.

Daisy heard Boss Hogg and Rosco's conversation. Praying that Rosco wasn't listening, she said into the CB, "Bo? Luke? Any ya'll there? Come in Bo, Luke."

"Read ya loud and clear, Daisy," said Bo.

"What's goin' on Daisy?" asked Luke.

"Rosco's tryin' to find ya'll, so lay low."

Rosco was listening, so he knew he had to search carefully for the Dukes. So he called in his ever-faithful deputy.

"Enos, Enos, this is yer superior officer, Sheriff Roscoooooo P. Coooltrane speaking, come back."

Enos should go into acting, because he was so good at pretending to look for Bo and Luke.

"Hey, Sheriff, what's goin' on?"

"Enos, them Duke boys could be anywhere. Go an' look over by the county line."

"Which county line, Sheriff, there's more than one."

"Doh, Enos, ya dipstick. I'm over by Chickasaw County, so you go over by Sweetwater County."

"Alright Sheriff, I'm gone."

See what I mean about Enos? He's a dang good actor.

As Luke was driving along in Jesse's pickup, he heard the familiar wail of Rosco's siren in the background.

"Oh, Rosco," Luke moaned to himself. He picked up speed and was surprised when he went around the corner and Boss Hogg's white convertible was parked sideways on the road, as to form a roadblock. Luke did sort of a power-slide type thing and ended up parallel to Boss Hogg. Rosco enclosed Luke by sliding into him.

Boss Hogg was pleased. "Rosco! Cuff 'em!" He had a grin bigger than a four-year old on Christmas. If catching Luke Duke was Boss Hogg's Christmas, then catching the one they had once had evidence against, namely Bo, would be Boss Hogg's New Years.

Rosco was pretty happy with himself. He did the laugh, and the said, "Luke Duke, you come out with yer hands up! I gotcha! I gotcha! I love it, I love it!"

To Rosco's surprise, Luke came out and allowed himself to be arrested by Rosco. And that's exactly what Rosco did, squealing like a pig the whole way to Hazzard County Police Station.

Jesse was sitting at his kitchen table just sipping at a cup of coffee. Then the phone rang. It was Luke, calling from jail. "They got me, Uncle Jesse," he said, sort of ashamed.

"Don't worry Luke, once we prove that they gotcha on false charges, you'll be outta there," Jesse said, with confidence. "You just hang in there till then."

Of course, this wasn't exactly part of Daisy's master plan, whatever it was. Even though we don't know all the details, ol' Jesse does.

He called Daisy on the CB. "Daisy, this is Shepard, come in, come in," he said.

"I hear ya, Uncle Jesse," said Daisy. "What's goin' on?"

"They just arrested Luke. We hafta find Bo before he gets arrested and this whole mess gets real ugly," said Jesse.

Meanwhile, ol' Bo's whereabouts were only known to one person—Bo himself. But that didn't last too long, 'cause guess who it looks like Bo's about to literally run into?

Yup, Enos.

Balladeer: Well, Jesse was wrong. Bo don't hafta get arrested for things to get real ugly. Ya'll stick around.
