Bo thought it would be a great idea to take Christine and the kids to Hazzard for them to meet the rest of the family. Since the wedding was quickly planned, they weren't able to make it to New York to come to the wedding. Luckily Luke lived in New York cause he was the only one from Bo's family that could make it. Bo had already talked to Uncle Jesse and he said that it would be fine for all of them to stay at the farm. Bo was so excited but Christine was nervous about what the family would think of her. They arrived at the farm and Christine got out of the car even more nervous than she was before.
Bo: Don't worry they'll love you.
Christine: I don't know Bo. What if they don't?
Bo: Trust me they will.
They walked into the farm and were greeted by Uncle Jesse and Daisy.
Bo: Uncle Jesse, Daisy. I want you to meet my wife Christine, my daughter Claire, and my son Jesse.
Daisy: Bo, they are just precious.
Uncles Jesse: That they sure are. You guys must be tired from the drive so why don't you get some sleep and tomorrow we'll show your wife and kids around.
Bo and Christine went to the room Bo used to share with Luke. After Bo pushed the twin beds together the two got ready for bed.
Bo: Christine I've been thinking, you know about you and the kids.
Christine: Um...ok Bo. What about?
Bo: Well about raising them. Look I know you love the city and all. But I would love for the kids to be raised here, raised like I was.
Christine looked at Bo. She didn't like the idea, plus she loved the city and wanted the kids to be raised there. But Bo looked so happy with this idea of his and she thought that the least she could do is give it a try.
It had been a few months since Bo and Christine moved to Hazzard. Bo wanted to see if they could find a place of their own but until then Uncle Jesse said it would be fine for them to stay there as long as they wanted, plus he loved watching Claire and Jesse.
One day Christine was looking out the window and saw Bo out on the farm playing with the kids and saw just how much fun they were having. She was lost in thought, she had been there for a couple of months now but still couldn't get used to this new life. She missed her family and friends and missed the city life. She hadn't realized Daisy came into the kitchen where she was.
Daisy: So why don't you tell Bo how you feel?
Christine jumped and looked at Daisy. One good thing had happened during these past few months. Daisy was so happy that there was now another woman in the house so the two became best friends almost immediately.
Christine: Oh hey Daisy I didn't hear you come in.
Daisy: Judging on how lost in thought you were it must be something bad.
Christine: Oh no it's not. I was just watching Bo with the kids outside.
Daisy: Is everything fine between you two?
Christine: Yea everything's fine. Why you ask?
Daisy: No reason. I just thought you guys were having problems again.
Christine: No not this time. I was just thinking about other stuff...
Daisy: Like you miss your home?
Christine: Is it really that obvious?
Daisy: Well Uncle Jesse and I noticed it.
Christine: But luckily Bo hasn't.
Daisy: Maybe you should tell him how you feel, he'd understand.
Christine: He's done so much for me already, I could never break his heart. He's so happy being back here.
Daisy: He's happy cause he thinks you're happy.
Christine: Look I love Bo with all my heart. But I don't know, I just always thought I'd have a family and raise them in the city with my husband.
Daisy: I never thought you didn't love Bo. I can tell just ho wmuch you two love each other. Heck, none of us thought Bo would ever get married and now look, he's got you and two wonderful kids.
Christine: It's just that we've been living here for a few months and yet I still can't get used to it over here. Don't get me wrong I'm grateful that Uncle Jesse is letting us live here and I'm glad that we became best friends...it's just that sometimes I feel like I just wanna you know go back to what I had before.
Daisy: I can totally understand where you're coming from. We wouldn't think anything bad of you for feeling like this. But really Bo needs to at least know how you feel.
Christine had tears in her eyes.
Christine: Just how do you tell your husband that every night you leave the room and sit in the living room upset because you're torn between what he loves and what you love.
Daisy: You tell him by telling him what you just told me. Bo thinks the world of you. The day you guys got married he called us up telling us how happy he was it was finally happening and that he felt bad because he was more happy about the wedding than being upset by us not being able to attend. Uncle Jesse told him that it was his day so he deserved to be as happy as he wanted to be.
Christine: I guess sometimes I don't think I deserve Bo.
Daisy: Nonsense the two of you belong together. I was able to see that the second I saw the two of you together. Now come on, Bo will be in with the kids soon for lunch so why don't you surprise him and show him what you've learned living here these past few months.
Uncle Jesse and Daisy had left for the afternoon so it was just Christine, Bo and the kids. Bo came in with Claire and Jesse just as Christine was cooking. Of course things were not going so well, Bo walked in just as the food in the over started to burn and smoke was filling the kitchen. Christine grabbed the tray from the over and saw everything ruined and just sat at the table crying.
Bo: Honey, it's alright. We'll just go out to eat.
Christine: You go I'm not hungry.
Bo: It's nothing to cry about. This is new to you I don't blame you for anything.
Christine: Bo this is your life. You grew up around this. Me...I didn't. We've been here 5 months already and look, I can't do anything right here. You take the kids out to lunch. I'm going to go rest.
She left to go to the bedroom and Bo looked over at Claire and Jesse.
Bo: What do you say kids...should we surprise mommy and give her a well deserved home-cooked lunch?
