Well, here's the answer to the 'who done it' part of the story. I hope it doesn't turn out to be a let down. The character portrayed in that episode of Dukes always stuck in my mind as particularly vicious and even a little smart, so for me he was the obvious choice for a comeback villain. Hopefully you all remember him as well as I did.

SLIGHT SPOILER; And no, it's not Huey, but good guess!

Jesse, Daisy and Cooter made it back to the Duke farm in record time. They all immediately went inside to make their necessary phone calls to continue investigating their newest leads. After finding some very solid leads, they decided it was time they went to find Rosco and Enos and tell them what they'd discovered. They just prayed it would finally be enough to make them listen to them and take their pleas seriously. As the three of them piled back into Daisy's jeep, Cooter got on the CB to try to track down either of their law enforcers. A tip courtesy of the Hazzard Net informed them that Rosco's patrol car was sitting in the parking lot of the Boar's Nest. Jesse shrugged his shoulders as he stared straight ahead, "That's as good a place to state our case as any." he declared.

Meanwhile, Rosco and Boss were just finishing up their noontime meeting to share whatever information they had found, which didn't turn out to be a lot. Rosco had also discovered that Hawthorne's Furniture Co was indeed owned by J.S Industries in Atlanta, and that their records didn't show any deliveries being made two days ago in Hazzard, or yesterday in Chickasaw, and they only had one delivery truck which hadn't left Atlanta, so Rosco couldn't help but think that was strange. Rosco and Boss were just about to wrap up when Cooter, Jesse and Daisy caught up with them.

Jesse led the way into Boss's office, not bothering to knock before he stormed in. "J.D, we need to talk to you and Rosco about my boys' case…and this time, you're gonna sit there and you're gonna listen to what we've got to say."

Boss, never wanting to admit to Jesse that he had actually just decided to help, jumped to his feet, acting very indignant. "Listen here, Jesse, you got no right to barge into my office like that making demands of me. I oughta have Rosco here throw you out, or better yet arrest you for trespassing."

Daisy was the next to speak, "Boss, please, you've got to listen to what we have to say. It's real important. We've just come from both Chickasaw County and Capital City, and we've found out a lot of information that points to someone else who we know is behind all of this. If we all work together, we can sort this whole thing out and find the real criminals."

Rosco, secretly very relieved to hear that some new evidence had been found and wanting very much to know what it was still couldn't help but try to sound annoyed with the Dukes. "Alright. Why don't you just tell me what information you could have possibly found? Although I'm sure there's another explanation to all of it."

Cooter held out the business card that Alan and Jeff had provided for them. "For starters, we actually talked to the two men that were posing as Bo and Luke at the crime scenes. They thought they had been hired as actors to play roles in some sort of new action movie. The whole time they were framing the boys, they thought they were auditioning for their parts. They claim they had no idea anything was wrong in what they were doing. We didn't have any authority to hold them, and they had to leave to catch a flight back to their homes in New York City, but they did give the name of their agent. As it turns out, their agent was contacted by a 'John Smith', and he said he was from J.S Film Industries. Now, we just found out that J.S Industries also owns…"

"Hawthorne's Furniture Company." Rosco finished.

Both the Dukes and Cooter stared at Rosco in shock. "That's right." Cooter said in disbelief. "Well, I'll be…look who's gone and done his homework,"

Daisy smiled at Cooter, but continued giving the information they had uncovered. "We tried to call the number for J.S Film Industries that the agent had provided, but it had been disconnected. Another interesting thing is, when we called Hawthorne's back, the woman on the phone had no idea who John Smith was. She claims they are a very small furniture store that only makes local deliveries to Atlanta residents. She also said they are owned and managed by Michael Hawthorne, but was financed by a Mr. Jeremy Steelson, and that must be what the J.S stands for. She said Mr. Steelson is a fairly prominent businessman in Atlanta and he backs several companies in the area." Daisy then smiled, "I somehow managed to keep her talking and while I was fishing for some more details, she said the strangest thing to me."

Now Boss was intrigued. "What did she say?"

"She said that up until two years ago, Mr. Steelson had a brother who was a silent partner with him, until he got in trouble with the law and served two years in Atlanta prison. Oddly enough, he just got released about three months ago."

Boss raised his eyebrows. "Did she mention any name?"

Daisy frowned and shook her head 'no'. "But that's got to be something, right? It's got to be enough to make you finally believe that Bo and Luke had nothing to do with those crimes they were accused of!"

Rosco's face turned an ash color as he slowly rose from his chair. His eyes almost seemed to glaze over, as if he had suddenly gone far away in thought.

Jesse noticed Rosco's expression and stood beside him. "Rosco," he said gently, "Have you thought of something?"

Rosco turned to face everyone and swallowed hard. He took his hat off and fidgeted with the rim of it as he held it with both hands. His voice seemed to quiver as he spoke. "I'm afraid I have, Jesse, and if I'm thinking who I think I'm thinking of…..it's not good." He took a deep breath and shook his head apologetically. "I swear I never would've gotten any of you or myself involved with him if I'd known just how dangerous he could be. And now, the more I think of it, all the evidence points to him. He even had a replica made up of The General Lee, so it all makes perfect sense now." His eyes suddenly opened wide as he remembered the phone call last night. He started to hurry toward the door. "We've got to get back to the jail to warn Enos and Bo about him."

Boss grabbed Rosco by the arm to stop him. "Wait a second, wait a second. Who are you talking about?"

Jesse's eyes also had the same glazed look as Rosco's did. "Jason Steel! Rosco's talking about that no good bounty hunter private detective he hired from Atlanta to get the boys." He turned to Rosco, grabbing his other arm. "That's who you're talking about, ain't it Rosco?"

Rosco broke down. "Yes! Yes, that's who I'm talking about." Rosco looked at Boss, who still looked confused. "Remember when I thought I'd inherited that ten million dollars? He was the one I hired to frame the Duke boys and ship them off to prison to get them out of my hair once and for all."

Boss seemed haunted by the memory himself, but for different reasons. An angry look came over his face. "What I remember about that was taking orders as your deputy and mopping floors and getting called all kinda names!" He let go of Rosco's arm. "But you're right, Rosco, he was a mean fella, and I don't imagine that spending two years in prison helped him to be a better person. We gotta get word out to Enos about this, pronto!"

At that very moment, Enos crashed through the door. Breathing heavily, he looked both surprised and relieved to see Jesse and Daisy standing before him. "You're here!" He exclaimed. "I saw your jeep parked out front and couldn't believe my eyes. I had to come in to make sure I wasn't imagining it!" He instinctively gave Daisy a quick hug. "I'm so glad you're alright!" Then almost as suddenly, he let go of Daisy and his face frowned. "But it doesn't make any sense."

Cooter seemed shocked at Enos' entrance and outburst. "Enos, what on Earth are you talking about?"

Enos calmed down enough to explain the strange call for help on the CB, and how it was even stranger that once he got to the scene, there was no jeep anywhere to be found, and no one in that area had seen or heard anything about an accident.

Jesse shrugged. "That is weird, Enos. Who would do such a thing like make a false claim of an accident?"

A horrified look once again crossed Rosco's face. "Enos? If you're here and I'm here…..who's with Bo?"

Almost in unison, everyone in the room said Bo's name and ran for the door, except Enos, who didn't quite understand everyone's feeling of urgency. "Bo told me to go, Sheriff. He said he would be alright." He called after Rosco as he ran out along with them.

"Never mind that now, Enos. I'll explain the whole situation to you while we're on our way back."

Jesse hollered out to Rosco, Boss and Enos as they all ran to their vehicles. "While you're driving, make sure one of you get in touch with Sheriff Little on the CB to be sure he knows what's going on here so that he doesn't release Luke to anyone. There's a reason why they wanted the Hazzard jail empty, and I've got a really bad feeling that it was so they could get to Bo. Let's be sure the same can't happen with Luke. I just hope we're not too late for either of them."

Riding in the back of the van, Bo looked in the direction that he'd just heard the voice. "Luke? Is that really you?"

"Yeah, Bo, it's me. Are you okay?"

Bo sighed, "Well, cousin, I've been better. How 'bout you?"

"The same, I guess." As always, Luke was trying to think of a plan. "Can you scooch over this way?"

"No," Bo answered, "I'm strapped down to this seat and I can't hardly move at all. Do you have a blindfold on too?"

"Yeah, and it's on pretty tight, too."

"I hear ya there." The sound of Luke's voice seemed to calm Bo down enough that his heart was slowly coming back to a somewhat normal rhythm. "Did you see who it was? It's that Steel fella behind this whole thing." Bo shook his head, although Luke couldn't see that, "Seems to me that we shoulda figured that out before now. Remember how anxious he was a few years back to put us away for good? Heck, he even had a double of The General, a close enough match that even we didn't know it was a fake."

Luke agreed. "Yeah, I saw him, and you're right, I don't know how we missed it either, it's so obvious now that I look back at it."

Bo had to ask, "How did Steel get by Little to get you out?"

Luke seemed disgusted, and blew out an indignant breath, "He didn't hafta do nothing. He just had one of his goons dressed up in a police uniform, saying he was there to pick me up, and Little just handed me over, no questions asked. I never seen nothing like it. It was like he was so anxious to get me out of his cell and off to Atlanta that he didn't even care who I was supposedly going with." Luke stomped his foot in anger. "Man, I wish someone who wore a badge in these parts had some sort of idea how the law actually worked." He seemed to calm down a bit after his outburst. "How about you?"

"Well," Bo started, "For one reason or another, Steel musta had it in his head that he needed to get me alone in the jail, so he had someone call in a fake accident that Uncle Jesse and Daisy were in to get Enos to leave. Less than five minutes later, I think the same goon came in and took me out."

Luke sat up straight. "You sure that accident was fake? Jesse and Daisy are okay, right?"

Bo turned his head downward, "I'm pretty sure they are, Luke. The guy laughed at me and told me pretty much straight out that it was all a lie. He seemed real happy with their plan, too." Now it was Bo's turn to kick out in anger. "Dang! I wish there was some sort of way to let Jesse, Daisy, or anybody know what's going on! We'll be half way to Atlanta before anyone catches on to what's happened."

"That is, if we're really going to Atlanta." Luke replied. Then, thinking back to what happened in the Hazzard jail compared to Chickasaw County, continued. "But the fact that they didn't just go in and sign you out of Hazzard may be a good sign that they felt Rosco and Enos may have been on to them. If they didn't sense that one of them would be suspicious, they woulda done the same as they did with Little."

Bo thought about it for a minute. "True." He answered. "You know, now that I think about it, Rosco was acting a little strange this morning. He even spent the night with me in the downstairs cell. Seemed odd enough that it made me wonder what the heck was up with him. Maybe something happened last night that spooked Rosco."

"Well, whatever it was, let's hope it was enough to make him start a real investigation. I know Jesse, Cooter and Daisy had a whole list of potential leads they were going to look into this morning. We'll just hafta keep our fingers crossed that they come up with something fast. They're really our only hope at this point." He futilely struggled against his cuffs and the strap holding him down to his seat. "Otherwise, I don't see us getting out of this predicament anytime soon."
