Chapter 1: Late Again
Balladeer- Now ain't that a surprise? The Duke boys are driving as if Rosco was chasin' after them but it's clear sailin. If they aint gettin' chased, then they must be late gettin money to old Boss. He's a stubborn Hogg and wont settle for anything late, even if it is money.
"Now Bo, we gotta get this farm payment into Boss in five minutes. You know Boss won't take the money if it's even a second late." Luke told his cousin, shifting slightly nervously in his seat.
"I know Luke, we can just jump the general over Chesapeake Crick and we'll be there with plenty of time to spare." Bo replied to his cousin, turning the General Lee into the direction of their jumping point.
"Lets hope there ain't gonna be no cars down there."
"There usually aint."
"Yeah you're right...for once." Luke grinned. Bo looked over to his cousin with a serious look on his face and then just grinned back and laughed.
"Here we go cousin." He floored the General Lee and there they went. Everything went perfect, the sailing, and the landing. "YEEEEE-HAWWW!" Bo yelled in excitement.
"Bo look out!" Luke shouted. A car came outta no where and was about to collide with them.
"I see 'em." Bo replied, quickly turning the steering wheel so they'd get out of the way. They went down into the ditch instead. "Well dang!"
"They didn't even flinch or at least stop to see if we was okay." Luke reported to his cousin. He had all ready gotten out and was looking up onto the road. The car was long gone. "You okay?"
"Yeah, I'm fine."
"Well, we should get Cooter on the CB and let him know we need to get the General outta here."
"There is a problem though."
"What's that?"
"Uncle Jesse is gonna skin us for not turning in the mortgage payment on time, again." Bo and Luke just looked at each other solemnly.

Balladeer- Now while them good ol' boys were waitin' for Cooter to come and get 'em outta the ditch, the car that caused the accident was hurryin' down the road like nothin' happened.
"Now Billy, you almost hit that car, didn't you see them coming?" A girl with long, curly, blond hair asked the driver. She looked to be in her early twenties. The driver was male, muscular, big, short brown haired, about the same age as her.
"O' course I did, but it was their own fault for gettin' in the way." Billy replied. "Now, Lisa, don't fuss about it. I'm sure they's fine."
"You're probably right. I love it when you're right." Lisa told him, leaning over and kissing him on the cheek. He just grinned.
"Now, when we get into town, we gotta find someone gullible enough to help us out." He explained.
"Yeah yeah yeah, I know. I'll find someone to fall for me like I do every time we've got a new job." She giggled.
"Good girl. Now, let's find Hazzard County's town." He told her.

"Now fellas, when you CB'd for me to get you outta a ditch, I figured you done ran someone off the road and was being considerate and waiting with them." Cooter laughed, as he approached the boys, noticing it was the General in the ditch.
"It's not funny Cooter, just get us the heck outta this thing." Bo said exhaustedly.
"And make it fast, we gotta get to town as soon as possible now." Luke added on.
"Why's that?" Cooter asked as he latched a hook onto the back bumper of the General.
"'Cause we got to pay our mortgage bill to Boss. It'll be a miracle to get him to collect it now." Luke told him.
"And you know just how much he loves us and would understand this little accident." Bo said, quite sarcastically.
"With all that money coming into Hazzard, he's going to be extremely uptight." Cooter explained, walking towards his truck, they followed.
"What money?" Bo asked.
"Oh you don't know. Well Boss lied to some antique company and said that his authentic one of a kind General Jackson's glasses were stolen so he get's the money for it." Cooter told them.
"I didn't know he wore glasses." Bo announced, as he shut the truck door, so they could get going.
"I don't think any of us did but you know Boss." Luke added.
"Well they're bringing in, I think fifteen grand for it. It should arrive in about three days." Cooter finished.
"Great, we're going to have loads of fun now." Luke said, also with a great hint of sarcasm in his voice.

"Excuse me sir, do you know how to get to Hazzard County?" Lisa asked a nearby farmer.
"Well miss, you're in it now." He told her, looking at her as if she's dumber than a doorknob.
"Oh, of course, how do you get to their main town then?" She asked politely.
"Keep going down this road, then you'll eventually come up to a fork, make a left, an, ya can't miss it." He directed her.
"Thank you." She said, with a fake smile.

"Com'on Boss! Just take the dang check!" Bo exasperatedly exclaimed. They had been in here for about ten minutes now and he would not take the check.
"You Dukes are fifteen minutes late! You know my policy." Boss retorted.
"If it was anyone else in the county, you'd take theirs and you know it." Luke argued.
"That's true, but see, I don't like you Dukes, and being the county commissioner and all, what I say goes." Boss said back. He did have a point, he was the commissioner.
"Can't you give them a break Boss, they didn't mean it to be late." Enos piped in, trying to help.
"Enos, ya dipstick, just hush. You Dukes, get outta here." Rosco demanded.
"We got ran off the side of the road, it's not our fault!" Bo fought back.
"I'm not taking your check and that's final!" Boss yelled.
"Boss, you are the worst, ya know that!" Luke said insultingly.
"You're harassing someone at a higher power than yourselves, Rosco arrest them!" Boss ordered.
"Yessiree Boss, a gehgeh. Come here you two. I'm'll cuff m' n stuff m'." Rosco said to himself, a gehgeh, being his silly laugh.
"J.DHOGG! Where are you!" A woman's voice screamed behind the door.
"LULU! Lulu hunny bunch, what are you doing here?" Boss asked as his large wife came urgently into the room.
"J.D, you promised me, you'd fix that sink at home, so I could do them dishes but I wake up and it's not fixed. I try to turn it on and I get sprayed by the water!" Lulu screamed at him. She didn't even notice that Luke and Bo were handcuffed together. She stopped screaming at him for a second when she realized those poor boys were going to be arrested.
"Hi Lulu." Bo and Luke greeted her simultaneously, raising the hand that was handcuffed.
"Oh you poor good 'ol boys. What did you do?" She asked sincerely.
"Well, Boss here wouldn't take our check because we were late in giving him it..." Luke began but Bo cut him off.
"Because we got ran off the side of the road and had to wait for Cooter to get us and.." Bo started but then Luke cut in this time.
"Now he's telling us that we're being arrested because we're harassing him. We just want to pay the bill and be done with it." Luke finished.
"Rosco! Uncuff these poor boys and J.D. take their darn check!" Lulu commanded.
"Yes shnookums." Boss replied quietly. "ROSCO! Uncuff them." Boss said
"But Boss, they broke the law..." Rosco started but was cut off.
"Just do it!" Boss finished.
"Yes Boss." Rosco said in defeat.
"Here." Luke said, thrusting the check into Boss' little fat hand. "Thanks Lulu."
"Yea, thank you Lulu." Bo added, walking out with Luke.
"The nerve of him." Luke complained as they walked down the street back to Cooter's garage.
"Yeah. Why can't we just get a new person to run this town?" Bo asked, not really counting on it to be answered.
When they got to Cooter's, the sat on top of another car in the lot, waiting for the General to be fixed.
"Should be done in about five minutes, I just have to fix one more thing.." Cooter announced.
" 'Kay, thanks Cooter." Bo replied.
"Bo look! Over there, that car!" Luke said so suddenly that it made Bo jump.
"Hey, isn't that the car that ran us off the road?" He asked.
"Yea it is." Luke replied.
"Let's go give them a lesson in manners." Bo suggested.
"Good idea, cuz. Cooter we'll be right back." Luke called. They took off down the street toward the car.
Balladeer- I hope Bo and Luke know what they're about to get themselves into. By the looks of it, they haven't gotta clue.
