A/N: At first, I was planning to put this story on hold until I was done with my other one, Life to the Fullest, because I liked that one better, but I got bored, so I decided I would write some on this. I hope you like it.

Chapter 5

Now when we last left ol' Bo, he was about to have a head-on collision with Enos. And guess what?

He did.

Don't worry, now everyone was okay, physically. Bo, who still wasn't sure Enos wouldn't book 'em, cringed, but then got out of his "scuffed vehicle" as Rosco would say.

Enos got out of his scuffed car. Bo held out his hands, wrists together. "Go ahead Enos, arrest me."

"I can't arrest ya Bo, ya didn't do nothin' wrong."

"Well then, what're ya gonna do?" Bo asked, wrists still held out in front of him.

"I'm gonna let ya leave, as long as ya don't tell nobody 'bout this," Enos said.

Bo dropped his wrists. "All right. If you say so."

"Bye Bo, have a nice day."

There's one kink (or maybe two, I don't know) in this plan. The General's carburetor is busted, and people would be curious about how it happened. Especially cause Enos has a large dent in his front end (that later would magically get fixed). But Bo knew Cooter wouldn't tell anybody. So he decided to give him a call on the CB.

"Breaker, breaker. This is Lost Sheep Two callin' Crazy Cooter, ya'll gotcher ears on?"

"Hey there Lost Sheep numero dos. This here's Craaaaaazy Cooter. I maybe crazy, but I ain't dumb. What's goin' on out there?"

Now don't ya'll just love CB lingo?

"Cooter, meet me out here by the old abandoned Shangfin farm with yer tow truck. I'm havin' some engine trouble."

"How come?"

"I wrecked the General," Bo said, shame heavy on his voice.

"I'll be out there faster than Boss Hogg on pickled pigs' feet. Over and out."

Now I bet ya'll are wonderin' how come Boss Hogg and Rosco didn't hear them. That's cause they're too busy figurin' out what they're gonna do after all this shuckin' and jivin'.

"Well, see after I foreclose on that Duke Farm, I'm gonna build Hazzard County a suburb!" Boss exclaimed.

"Hazzard County ain't big enough fer a suburb," Rosco contradicted.

"Shut up, ya numbskull! I'm gonna call it Hoggstown! Or Hoggsville. Well anyway, there's gonna be all sorts of new shops and businesses and things on all them acres up there, since I already own all the land surroundin' that Duke farm!"

"What else ya gonna put up there?" Rosco asked.

"I was gettin' there! But none o' this will happen unless you catch Bo Duke! Speakin' of which way ain't ya out there now, on Bo's tail!"

"I'm goin' out there right now. Don't you worry yer fat little head, I will catch Bo Duke! Khee, khee! I love it, I love it!"

My question is, what would Boss and Rosco do with their time if the Dukes weren't around?

As Rosco was out almost chasing Bo, he decided that none of this would be right without Flash, his beloved Basset that was taking the day off, hanging out with Mama Coltrane, but Rosco didn't want her to miss all the fun.

"Ya see now, Flash, we's gonna be in hot pursuit of Bo Duke! I love it, I love it!"

Flash just sat there, giving now recognition that Rosco had said anything. Just like he always did.

In Cooter's pickup, Bo filled Cooter in on what happened with Enos. They drove along, and suddenly, Rosco showed up behind them. Silently, Cooter picked up the CB.

"Breaker, breaker. This here's Craaaaaazy Cooter callin' Shepard, Bo Peep, and Lost Sheep One. Ya'll gotcher ears on?"

"Ya got me, sugar," Daisy's voice immediately came over the CB.

"Shepard here. Lost Sheep One can't talk, he's bin cuffed and stuffed."

Bo slapped his hand to his forehead. "Dang it! That certainly puts a damper on things!"

"Anyway, ya'll," Cooter continued, "we could use some reinforcements here on old Petry Road. We got a Rosco on our tail, and in my pickup with a busted General Lee in tow, this particular Rosco's gonna be hard ta shake."

"You got it Cooter," Daisy said. "Ten-four."

"I'll be there as soon as I can," Jesse said.

A few minutes later, Bo and Cooter had some help. So did Rosco.

With Enos nowhere to be found at the time when Boss Hogg asked for him, he took the easy way out. He found his cousin Cletus, who just happened to be havin' a drink at the Boar's Nest at the time. He temporarily instated Cletus as a Hazzard County deputy. So now, Cletus was closely behind Rosco.

Jesse was in another random loaner from Cooter, because his own pickup had been impounded when Luke had been arrested. He drove up behind Cletus and nonchalantly; he eased up next to him. "Hiya, Cletus!" he yelled cheerfully to Cletus.

"Well, hey Jesse!"

"All right if I pass?"

"Well, sure, that'd be okay!" Cletus eased off Rosco a bit. As soon as Jesse got in front of him, Cletus realized what Jesse was doing. "Buzzard on a buzz saw!"

Cletus tried to get back in front of Jesse, but wherever Cletus went on the road, Jesse went, too. He was trapped back there. "Oh, cousin Boss is gonna kill me!" If not, that nasty niece of his will! Cletus thought.

Well, that'll hold Cletus for a while. Wonder what Daisy's gonna do to ol' Rosco? Let's find out.

It's pretty simple what Daisy did. She, in Dixie, drove alongside Rosco slowly easing him off the road. As she got closer, Rosco called out "Move outta the way, Daisy! Yer scuffin' up my vehicle and my dog!"

"Sorry Rosco!" Daisy said, and rammed into the side of his car. His car went into the ditch. After making sure Rosco and Flash weren't hurt (which Rosco made quite clear by yelling blatantly at her) she drove away once more.

Rosco was checking on Flash. "Are you alright, sweetheart?" he asked.

He got a reply. "Woof."

"I love her, I love her!"

Jesse's trap wasn't holding Cletus in too well; he needed to be put to a stop. With Rosco and Daisy gone, Jesse had more room. He accelerated closer to Cooter and Bo, and abruptly stopped and went in for a power slide. Cletus was forced to do a power slide into Jesse. I still got it! Jesse thought excitedly.

Bo looked backwards at Jesse and Cletus, and laughed. Cooter joined in.

I bet ya'll are wonderin' where ol' Enos is. He was usin' his own methods to prove Bo and Luke were innocent. He went to the Boar's Nest with a pocket tape recorder. Boss Hogg and Kristen were talking in the back. Enos hid, and turned on the tape recorder.

Ya know, ya'd think ol' Boss would be tired of people eavesdroppin' through that there door. Ya'd think he would've had it soundproofed by now.

"Uncle Boss," Kristen said. "I still don't understand how this is gonna work out."

"It's quite simple, Kristen," Boss said matter-of-factly. "You disctracted Bo while we loaded the weapons in his car. Then that lousy, no-good deputy Enos Strate let Bo go, but now we're makin' that up. We got Luke, and Rosco and Cletus are chasin' down Bo right now."

"What'll happen after Bo is caught? That's what I don't get. What's the point of all this?"

"Well, between legal fees and other expenses, Jesse won't be able ta hold on ta that farm o' his no more. I'll foreclose on it. Since I already own the land surroundin' the Dukes' property, I can make a whole 'nuther town up there! It can make me have more money!"

"Very sly, Uncle Boss, but I did the sneaky, under-handed part of this. I think I should get more than just $100,000 after you die, don'tcha think?"

"Well, okay," Boss said hesitantly. "I'll give you some shares of a business or something. As long as ya don't turn around and weasel me outta everything like yer brother, Hughie."

"Uncle Boss, I would never do that," Kristen said sincerely.

This was all Enos needed to prove the Dukes' innocence. But strangely enough, the first thought that popped into his head was, So Kristen is Hughie's sister. I was wonderin' 'bout that.

Daisy caught Enos listening at the door. As soon as he turned around, he jumped.

"Daisy, you scared me!" Enos exclaimed. "I need ta show this ta Sheriff." He indicated the tape recorder.

"Okay, but I'll have ta give ya a lift, because Boss Hogg sent Cletus out in yer patrol car."

Enos accepted, and he and Daisy were on their way. As they drove along, they met up with Bo and Cooter in town. They stopped at Cooter's garage to inform Bo and Cooter on what they were doing.

"So then," Enos said, "you can Luke'll be proven innocent!"

"All right!" Bo said happily. "Good goin' Enos."

Enos was grinning, but it slowly faded as he realized something.

"Enos," Bo said. "What's wrong?"

"Bo," Enos said shamefully, "I'm sorry. I left the tape recorder on a table back at the Boar's Nest. I hope no one took it."

Bo, Daisy, and Cooter all went bug-eyed in unison. "That certainly is a problem," Cooter said.

Well friends and neighbors, how do ya reckon Bo and Luke are gonna find their way outta this one? Ya'll don't go anywhere, or you'll miss it.

A/N: I hope you liked that long awaited chapter! Anyways, for any disappointed Luke fans out there, I'm sorry he wasn't in this chapter, I tried to work him in, but couldn't find a place. Review, as always!
