The Search: Four: Bo and Luke were taking to outside parts of Hazzard County, and they were being dragged in like Wild Boar, and they knew that they would be tortured, and then killed in some cruel way. Cooter and Daisy were silent as they were continuing their search for Bo and Luke, and he knew what she was thinking, and he said to her with confidence, “Don’t worry, Daisy, we will find the boys, don’t give up just yet, Girl”, and she nodded and thought to herself, “I sure hope that the boys are doing ok, if not I would never forgive myself”, she got control of herself, and focused on her driving. Bo and Luke were taken to the Basement, where there is a cell waiting for them, and Luke went in, and Bo tried to fight them, and was rewarded with some cuts, and bruises, and was roughly thrown in, and Luke said in a outrage, and said yelling after them, as they were leaving, “Hey, Try it on someone your own size, Coward!” and he went to take care of his cousin. Jesse was worried about Daisy’s present state of mind, and his nephews, as he was driving along in the woods, and he thought to himself, “Please, God, let me have my family back”, and he snapped back to the Present, and got on the C.B., “Bo Beep, this is Shepherd, let’s pull over to South, and have a meeting, cause I think I might have an idea of where Bo and Luke might have been taken”, and on the other end of the line, Daisy’s voice said, “10-4, Uncle Jesse”, and he went to the South end of the woods, to meet Cooter and Daisy. Bo was feeling a little bit better, and it was a relief to Luke, and he went over to his cousin, and he asked, “Cousin, Are you OK?” and Bo nodded, and said, “Yeah, I can’t wait to settle the score for what they did to us, and Daisy”, and Luke said with a smile, “Believe me, you’ll get the chance”, and they huddled up together and went to sleep. “I think they are in the deep parts of Hazzard County Woods, Guys, I bet we will find Bo and Luke there”, and Daisy said, “They have a way of getting out of there, and it leads to Bear’s Mountain”, and Cooter said, “That is the roughest part of all of the County”, and Jesse said, “Let’s go before we are too late”, and Cooter and Daisy agreed, and they rushed off to go rescue Bo and Luke. Conners and Miller got Bo and Luke out of their cell, and Bo decided to hit them, and Bo received some kicks, and punches to his already sensitive ribs, and Luke just glared at them, and then Conners said with a sneer, “Let’s go!” and Bo and Luke followed outside to their car, and they were heading to Bear Mountain, where Bo and Luke knew that they would be dead. Cooter was in the “General Lee”, he left his Pickup at the Duke Farm, and Jesse was in his Pickup Truck, and Daisy was in her jeep, “Dixie”, and they were shocked to see that Bo and Luke were being moved to somewhere else, and Daisy screamed out loud, “No!” and she got on her C.B., and said, “ Guys, I gotta a hunch that they are heading for Bear Mountain, We can’t lose them”, and Cooter replied on the end of the line, “Let’s do it to it”, and Jesse said, “We are with you, Girl”, and they sped off to catch the crooks. Luke could tell that Bo was scared, and he said calmly in a low voice, so the crooks wouldn’t hear them, “Don’t worry, Cousin, Help’s on the way, and we shouldn’t give up”, and Bo nodded, and looked out the window, and he thought to himself, “I hope Luke’s right”, and they got to their destination, and Miller said nastily, “Out!” and Bo and Luke did as they were told. End of: The Search: Four: Balladeer: *Will Bo and Luke die? Can Daisy and the others help them in time? And will the crooks be caught too? Please don’t go to the Fridge now, y’all, it’s about to get interesting, and stay tuned for the next chapter of: Against All odds! *

The Talk and the Plan: Three: “How can you stand to look at me let alone love me?” Daisy looked tearfully at Bo and then at Luke, and she said, “I let those lowlifes rape and degrade me”, and Jesse said with a smile, “It’s not your fault, and you tried to stop them, and Boss Hogg is declaring you a hero, so don’t blame yourself”, and he hugged her, and she felt better, but she is hesitant about letting Bo and Luke come near her, and she looked over at them, and they nodded in understanding, and she smiled at them and they smiled back at her, now they are knowing what is going on with her, and Bo gave her an irresistible grin, and he said to this to her. “Now about loving you, it’s easy, we loved you when you stepped into the house with Uncle Jesse”, he turned around and indicated with his head, to the Front Porch, and she nodded, and remembered fondly, meeting her cousins for the first time, and she relaxed, and Luke said teasingly, “Girl, you stole our hearts, and took our breath away, and you haven’t given it back”, and she said laughing, “I have not”, and Jesse matched the boys’ smiles, and said, “Oh yes, you have, mine included”, and she looked at her male members of her family, and decided to start believing them, and Luke said with a smile to her, “We got a plan, and we are gonna need you, We will wait until you are off the crutches, OK?”, and she nodded thinking what he is thinking, and said, “We need Cooter for this, don’t we?”, and she said with a sly smile, “I think we should teach this dudes a serious Country lesson on how to treat a lady”, and Bo said with a smile exclaiming his famous saying, “Yeehaw!”, and Jesse said hugging her once more exclaiming, “That’s my girl!”, and Luke said with a smile, “I feel sorry for the guys to mess with the Dukes especially a female Duke”, and everyone laughed and agreed, and they enjoyed the rest of their breakfast. Determination over took Daisy, and the Duke beauty worked out in the Barn, thanks to Bo and Luke’s help, and she worked hard cause she doesn’t want to have the crutches, and she kept at it, until she was strong enough, and she wanted to show everyone that she is just as tough as her family, and that no one mess with a Duke from Hazzard County, Georgia. When the day came, the boys were enjoying a light breakfast of Cereal, and Coffee, and they were in shock to find Daisy walking on her own, and perfectly without any crutches, and Luke said exclaiming happily, “Daisy, You look great!” and Bo said also exclaiming with a smile, “You sure do, Nothing can keep a Duke down!” and Daisy said with a smile, “Thanks, Darling”, and she was feeling like herself, and she said, “Let’s get to Cooter’s”, and the boys followed and Jesse smiled when heard the horn of the “General Lee” blaring, and the tires speed off towards Cooter’s place. Cooter smiled as he saw his friends pull up to him, and he smiled at the sight of Daisy, and he whistled, and said exclaiming with a smile, “Why, Miss Daisy, you look absolutely fantastic today!” and she chuckled, and said, “Thanks, Cooter, we need your help, we are gonna teach a certain couple of dudes a lesson in treating a lady right”, and Cooter said simply smiling, “Count me in”, and Daisy said, “Good, now listen up, Boys”, and she laid out the plan that she is gonna trap the crooks by flirting and using her looks to drive them crazy, Bo, Luke, and Cooter are gonna nail them for behind, and bring them to Rosco, and the State Police to be processed, and be put in jail. Miller and Conners got out their hiding place in Hazzard County Woods, next to the pond, and they were counting up their loot from the previous jobs, and they were happy with the results, and Conners said, “Let’s packed up, and blow this town before anyone spots us”, and Miller agreed, and they went to do just that. It didn’t take the Dukes and Cooter long to find the Crooks, and they knew that if anyone wanted privacy they go to the woods, and Daisy was getting ready to do her part, and she stripped down and jumped into the pond, and Luke commented, “Not one American boy can resist Daisy naked in the pond”, and the others smiled and agreed, and watched as Daisy was doing her magic, and she got Miller, and Conners to come out, and the boys did the part, and Daisy got out of there fast, and got dressed, and then kept her eyes on the boys, and they fought, and Conners and Miller managed to get the best of the boys, and knocked out Cooter, and they kidnapped the boys and left like a bat out of hell. Daisy cried out, “NO!!!!” after the departing car left, and she went to Cooter and checked for a pulse and was relieved to find one, and he was waking up, and she said, “Cooter, we have to get to Uncle Jesse, and let him know what happened”, and he nodded, and they went into his Pickup, and sped off to the Duke Farm. Bo and Luke woke up in the back of Conner’s car, and they were bounded and gagged, and they looked at each other, and reading their thoughts like they always do, they decided not do anything hasty, cause they know that Daisy, Cooter, and Uncle Jesse were on their way to save them, and they made up a plan in their minds, and remained quiet until it was the perfect time to make a move. Daisy and Cooter filled in Jesse, and he said, “Let’s go”, and they filled in Boss Hogg, Rosco, and his Deputies, and they promised that they would help if they needed them, and that they have their permission to go and get the crooks, and Daisy said with clenched teeth, “Come on, Cooter, let’s go I am not gonna let those bastards hurt my cousins!” and he cried out, “Yahoo!” and Jesse was right behind them.

After they got back to the farm, Jesse saw the condition that Lorraine was in, and made some tea, and then Lorraine calmed down, and began her story of how she got involved with Coppola, and the goons, who were trying to kill her. “It began while I was living in Atlanta, I was getting ready for the Summer, I needed to make some quick money to start my life here in Hazzard”, she said tearfully once again, and the Dukes nodded for her to continue, and she said calming down, “So I got a job at this bar, as a Waitress, and the owner, Luigi Coppola loved me, so he gave enough months so I could do what I need to do, and get out, I never knew he was a criminal, I swear it, Bo”, she said as she looked into Bo’s eyes, and he said soothingly, “I know it, Darlin’, I believe you”, and he hugged her, and the rest of Duke clan was sympathetic to her situation, and wanted to help her, and Lorraine concluded her story with this, “I saw Lewis Smith get murdered, and they spotted me, and that’s when I ran for home, and got the job at “The Boar’s Nest”, I never been so scared in my life”, and Bo said this with confidence, as he reached out to her for a hug. “I will kill them myself if they come near you again”, and he hugged her, and she nodded, and welcomed the warm embrace, and Luke said, “We will help you, Lorraine”, and Daisy said with a smile, “Yeah, You are family, and we gotta stick together”, and Jesse said, “Now don’t you worry, Dear, those City Slickers get outsmarted by us Country Folks everyday”, and Lorraine laughed, and said, “That’s true”, and then everyone felt happy again, and enjoyed the rest of their day. Lorraine sat in the Hayloft, she knew that was the only place to get some privacy, and she had to do some heavy thinking, on a possible relationship, with Bo, and she thought to herself, “I love this man, I trust this man with my life, I was a fool for breaking it off with him before, I just hope that I am not too late”, and she was drifted off into space when Bo came in. Bo cleared his throat, and it brought Lorraine back to the present, and he said with a smile, “A penny for your thoughts?” and she smiled, and nodded, and she decided to have the talk with him right then and there, and she said, “ Bo, Are you happy with the way we settled our past?” and Bo thought for a second, and said, “I have to be honest with you, It hurt like hell in the beginning, but I rather have you as a best friend, then nothing at all”, and that made her smile, and she sighed, “Don’t you wish that you can go back in time to the simpler days?”, and o chuckled, and said, “All the time, Darlin’”, and suddenly she made a move towards Bo, and kissed him, and there was shocked looks on each other’s faces, and she said softly, “I am sorry”, and Bo said, “Don’t be”, and they kissed each other once more, but this time with intensity, and began to undress each other. Bo said breathlessly, “I missed you, and everything about you” as he got her out of her pants, undies, bra, and shirt, and boots. Lorraine kissed the side of his neck the way he liked, and she said, “Sugar, me too, I just want to forget this past month”, and she got him out of his clothes, and they dropped into the Hay, and made love, and they were in sync with each other, and each made small pleasurable noises, and then Lorraine kissed Bo on his chest, and laid in his welcoming embrace, and asked, “Are you happy, Honey?” and Bo said kissing her cheek, and sighed, “Darlin’, I am happier then I ever had been”, and they both sighed, and went to sleep that early afternoon, and Bo did his chores, so he was free for the afternoon, and so was Lorraine. Luke and Daisy were preparing Lunch, and Daisy said with a smile, “I think the flame is relit for Bo and Lorraine, Cousin, I hope this time it works out for them”, and Luke said confidently, “I think it will, Bo will work hard this time, he loves that girl, and will do anything for a future with her, and he will also convince her that staying in Hazzard is for the best”, and Daisy nodded, and said, “You’re right, Cousin”, and she said to herself as she thought worriedly, “I just don’t want him hurt”, and she and Luke finished preparing the delicious meal. Bo and Lorraine woke up, and quickly dressed, and left the Hayloft, and they came in with flushed looks, and the rest of the Dukes knew it was happiness, and decided to let Bo and Lorraine tell them, and Luke said, “Grace”, and they sat down to a wonderful meal and pleasant conversation like usual. Later that night, Bo and Lorraine told the rest of the Dukes that they are officially a couple now, and they are in love, and they talked about future plans, that includes kids, and marriage, and Luke said, “I have a plan to stop Coppola, and his goons, and he filled them in on it, and they loved it, and agreed to it. The next day, the plan went into action, and Luke brought Rosco and his Deputies into it, they figured that Coppola would risk everything to make a move to kill Lorraine, and they all positioned themselves in Hazzard County Square. Coppola and his goons decided to came into Hazzard County instead of coming up with a plan, and they saw “Lorraine”, but it was really Daisy, in the “General Lee”, and Bo was driving it, and they both smiled cause Luke’s plan was working, and then Bo got on the C.B., and said with a big grin, “Big Turkey coming your way, gobble, gobble”, and Luke said laughing on the other end, “Gotcha, we are on the way, Cousin”, and the plan continued to proceed. Coppola saw the “General Lee”, and he said, “Take both of them out, and let’s get out of here, before someone notices us”, and Mario and Dominic nodded, and they got their guns out, and they were about to fire, but an explosion interrupted the attempt, and they could hear Bo’s voice echoed loudly exclaiming, “Yeehaw!!!” and now they were scared, and stopped their car. Luke got out of the car, and so did Cooter, and he and Bo had their Bows and Arrows trained on them, and Luke said, “Come out of there, or you will be grilled”, and they did, but they put up a fight, and the boys went at them, and Jesse and Daisy kept Lorraine safe, and once the crooks were in Rosco and his Deputies’ custody, Lorraine took a cheap shot, and kneed him in the groin, and yelled, “You bastard!” and Bo and Luke pulled her away and comforted her. The Dukes and Lorraine testified against them, and they were sentenced to Life with out Parole, and that made everyone happy, and Lorraine doesn’t have to run anymore, and she also promoted from Waitress, to House Singer, when everyone found out that she can sing, and everything in Hazzard County was normal again. Lorraine and Bo were hot and heavy, and they were happy for the first time in their lives, and their plans were underway, and Luke and Daisy were very happy and ready to help whenever they are needed. Plus Lorraine treated Daisy, Bo, and Luke to a night on the town, and she considered them her heroes, and they had fun, and they felt like a big happy family too.

Finally, last but certainly not least, there is Jesse Duke, the Family Patriarch, and Head of the Duke Clan; he took Daisy, Bo, and Luke, when they were little, he helps the boys whenever they are in trouble, and he approves at certain things, and don’t at others, and he loves his boys, and Daisy, and that never changes, and people of Hazzard County respect and like him too, and he always make sure that there is a honest way of doing things, instead of doing things dirty, he has Snow White hair, and rough hands from years of labor, and Blue eyes that sparkle, he never is selfish, and made sure that he is there for anybody in need, and he is lovingly known as “Uncle Jesse” to everyone sometimes One hot day, the boys and Jesse were working on the fields of their farm, and they were working the hardest they ever worked, and the reason is that they wanted their crops to be ready for Harvest time, and they were sweating and grunting as they were doing their labor, and once they were done, Jesse said with a smile, “This year will be the year for us”, and the boys were glad to hear that, and Luke said, “Yeah, You can finally enjoy retirement”, and Bo said chuckling, “Give it up, Cousin, Uncle Jesse is gonna retire, he loves the work, and would be bored to tears, if he didn’t have his work to keep himself busy”, and Jesse smiled, and said pretending to scold them, “OK, Guys, Enough about me, we are done for the day, so why don’t you go to the house, and wash up, and go out and have some fun tonight?”, and the boys agreed, and they all went into Jesse’s Pickup truck, and went back to their Farmhouse. Daisy was making some supper for her family, and she smiled when the most important men in her life came in, and Daisy said, “Dinner is almost set, why don’t you go and wash up?” they nodded, and went upstairs, and each took a turn to use the shower, and Jesse was all done, and at the table, so the boys could take a little bit longer, in getting ready for a night out at their favorite hangout, “The Boar’s Nest”, and they can relax for a change, and not worry about any trouble. The Boys came down, and as usual they look good, Bo decided on a pair of Light Blue Jeans, and a Emerald Shirt, and Luke decided on a pair of Dark Blue Jeans, and a Blue Plaid and White Checkered Shirt, and each had two buttons undone, to show off their tans, and they unknowingly show off their features, and the girls guaranteed will go crazy that night. Daisy decided on a Pink Skirt, and White Ruffled Blouse that shows off her bare shoulders, and she wore her hair in a braid, and after they helped Jesse washed the dishes, and clear off the table, they were leaving in their famous Race Car, the “General Lee”, Jesse said, “Be careful, and have fun, you guys”, and the three younger Dukes said in unison, “We will, Uncle Jesse”, and they left for the famous Eatery, and Bar. Roberta Lynn Parker was a new Waitress at “The Boar’s Nest”, and she was awkwardly clumsy, and shy, and she has a crush on Luke Duke, but never told him, or anyone else, and she is a beauty in her own way, with Flaming Red Hair, and Emerald Green eyes, which she hides by wearing Glasses, and she has an attractive body, and hides it in the way she dresses, and she always manages to messes up everything, and doesn’t have confidence, and she figured if she has some, she wouldn’t mess up anymore. The Boys and Daisy came in, and Daisy went to report for her shift behind the bar, and the boys went to their usual table, and found Cooter there, and they exchanged their greetings, and Roberta Lynn came to take their orders, and they relaxed, and Roberta Lynn told Daisy the Boys’ and Cooter’s drink order, and she smiled and said, “No problem, Sugar”, and they both went to back to work. Boss Hogg, and Rosco were watching the action from their booth in the corner of the room, and they were pleased with the turnout, and the money that is coming in, and they hope that the next couple nights will be like this, and they turned their attention to the Business Affairs in front of them, and the rest of the night went smoothly. Roberta Lynn came back with drinks for a table, and she accidently spilled a Whiskey on a customer, and he was angry, and took her hand roughly, and yelled, “You Idiot!” and she tried to free herself from his grasp, and said shaking with fear, “I am so sorry, Sir”, and he said being with angry, “I want you fired!” and tossed her across and she hit the bar, and fell down, and Bo and Luke saw this, and were gonna do something, but Daisy stopped him, and said, “Let me handle this”, and they nodded, and they, and Cooter watched in action, and Boss Hogg went with Daisy too. “Is there anything wrong, Sir?” and he looked at Daisy, and said, “This Idiot Waitress ruined my best clothes”, and she said, “Well, she did say she was sorry, and there was no reason to push her and make her fall”, and he was gonna open her mouth and she stopped him, and said, “Now if you want to stay, have a beer on me, if not, and you want to act like an idiot too, then don’t come back”, and the man was taken back by the way Daisy was speaking to him and he said with venom, “Fine, I won’t, this place is a pigsty anyway!”, and Boss Hogg went to stop him and said, “But, Sir, I can fix this…”, but he was too late, the rude customer, and his group left, and went straight over to Roberta Lynn, and had this to say to her, and he said it with angrier out loud. “Girl, that guy was my best customer, and you just cost me some money that we could had used, and further more, I can’t believe I hired a clumsy waitress, who couldn’t hold on to a tray, I am gonna fire you, if you mess up, Understand me, Missy?!” and she nodded, and went sobbing into the Back Room, and Daisy snapped as she saw this exchange, and she said with angrier in her voice, “Boss Hogg! You have sensitivity like a Bull, she is trying her hardest for you, and anyway, you maybe the owner of this place, but I am the Manager, and that gives me complete power over my employees, and to fire them if need be, so if you ever talk to Roberta Lynn like that again, I am gonna take you apart, and re stuff you and put over my fireplace, you understand me, Mister?!”, and he was taken back, and he yelled for Rosco, and they marched into his office, and slammed the door, and when they were out of sight, Daisy received a big round of applause, ands whistles, and she looked over at her cousins, and Cooter, and indicated “I am going to see if Roberta Lynn is all right”, and they nodded, and she nodded back, and went to do the task. Daisy found Roberta Lynn sitting on some crates, and she was sobbing hard, and Daisy put her hand on her shoulder, and smiled at her, and had her arms out in a hug, and the Redhead welcomed the hug, and sobbed harder, and Daisy said soothingly, “Shhh, It’s ok, Sweetie, don’t pay Boss Hogg any mind, All you need is some confidence”, and she nodded in agreement, “Why don’t you take a break? I want you to meet some people that are important to me, OK?”, and she helped Roberta fix herself up, and they went to go see Bo, Luke, and Cooter. Once the girls came back, Daisy made the introductions, and they all exchanged pleasantries, and Luke looked at her, and decided she is beautiful, and no matter what, he will help her come out of her shell, and they talked, and laughed, and Roberta Lynn felt better, and once their break was over, they went back to work, and Cooter, Bo, and Luke left, and once they were on the road, Bo saw Luke in deep thought, and said, “You like that chick, huh, Cousin?”, and Luke snapped back to the present, and said, “Yeah, Bo, I do”, and Bo was happy for him, and said, “Well, All she is confidence, and once she has that, then she will feel comfortable with you”, and Luke nodded, and Bo said, “Uncle Jesse told us it’s what is deep inside that makes a person beautiful”, and Luke chuckled, and looked over at his youngest cousin, one more time, and said, “You are turning into one smart fellow”, and Bo said, “Thank you very much, Luke”, and the rest of the ride was silent. Over the next couple of weeks, Daisy showed Roberta Lynn the “ropes” around “The Boar’s Nest”, and she showed her how to handle the tray, and drinks, and how to handle rude male customers, and how to handle Boss Hogg, and Rosco too, with Bo and Luke’s help, and Roberta Lynn was grateful to have the Dukes as friends, and she loves Jesse, and he loves her too, and he insisted that she calls him “Uncle Jesse” which she has no problems of doing so. The following Saturday night was a test, and Daisy hopes that Roberta Lynn feels comfortable, and she improved her wardrobe, and insisted that Roberta Lynn wears Skin Tight Jeans, and a Fire Red Low Cut Top to show some skin, and instead of Glasses, Dr. Appleby got her Clear Contact Lenses, to bring out the green of her eyes, and she also is now well coordinated, and can do the job now better than anyone, and the other Waitresses were supportive, and they all knew she has a crush on Luke, and they hope that he returns her feelings. Luke and Bo came in, and sat down at their usual table, and Cooter came in to join them too, and then Roberta Lynn came over to them, and did a sexy voice, “What can I get for you, Gents?” and they were amazed at her, and they told her, and when she left, Bo exclaimed loudly, “Ouch! Something tells me that she is gonna be trouble”, and Luke said, “You got that right, she is smokin’!” and Cooter said in agreement, “She can probably stomp a guy’s heart from 20 paces away”, and then they were silent as the House Band plays. Roberta Lynn went over to the bar, where Daisy is bartending, and she said with a laugh, “Those boys are so clueless, they have no idea that it’s really me”, and Daisy had an idea, and said, “I think it’s time to turn up the heat on my cousins, I think you should give a Bo a peck on the cheek, and brush against Luke with your arm, as you put the drinks down, and pinch his cheek”, and Roberta Lynn laughed, and said, “I like it, and Luke will have to cool himself with a Cold Shower”, concluding Daisy’s plan, and Daisy said with a laugh, “Exactly!”, and they went back to work, and Roberta Lynn said thinking to herself, “Luke Duke, you met your match!”, and she went to take care of her other customers, and then she went to get the boys’ and Cooter’s drink. Daisy handed over the tray of drinks, and she winked at her friend, and Roberta Lynn winked back, and went over to the table, and she said with a Velvet voice, “Here, you are Gentlemen, your drinks are on me”, and the boys, and Cooter thanked her. Roberta Lynn followed Daisy’s plan, and she brushed against Luke as she set the drinks down, and his breath quicken, and he said breathlessly, “Thank you”, and she said with a smile, “You are welcome, Sugar”, and pinched his cheek lightly. Bo said with a flirting smile, “You know, besides our cousin, Daisy, you are sure the prettiest Waitress here”, and she gave him a smile, and said, “You are so sweet, Darlin”, and she gave him a peck on the cheek, and left. They saw her walk, and Cooter said exclaiming loudly with a smile, “Ohhh, she is not trouble, she is Red Hot!” and they saw her walk to another table, and Cooter said, “There is something familiar about that Waitress”, and the Duke Boys agreed, and had to drink plenty of Cold Beer, in order to cool themselves off, and Cooter just laughed at the effect that the new Waitress had on his friends. Daisy saw the scene and laughed too, and when Roberta Lynn came back for another order, they quickly high-fived each other, and Daisy said, “Tomorrow, you will reveal yourself, I can’t wait to see the boys’ reaction especially Luke’s”, and Roberta Lynn nodded in agreement, and they went back to work, and that night was a huge success. Bo, Cooter, and Luke couldn’t stop thinking about that Waitress from the night before, and Cooter and Bo noticed that she has an eye for Luke, and they hope that it’s Roberta Lynn portraying the mysterious Waitress, cause it would make her and Luke happy, and maybe Luke can have the relationship he wants, and she can finally fit inside Hazzard County, and they sat down and waited for Daisy to come out. Daisy saw them through the Back Room, and she laughed, and she said to Roberta Lynn, and said, “Wait here, Honey, then I will let you know when to come out”, and she nodded, and Daisy brought out their breakfast, and sat down with them, she was wondering what they were doing there so early, and Bo said, “Hey, Daisy, we were looking for a Redheaded Waitress that worked here last night, and we were wondering if you knew her?” and Daisy said with a laugh, “I sure do, Cousin, and you do too”, and they were confused, and Daisy said yelling, “Hey, You!”, and Roberta came out. She came out, and the boys were amazed, and still confused, and Daisy said, “Recognize her?” and they shook their heads “no”, and she said, “Put on your Glasses, Sugar”, she did, and the boys and Cooter gasped, and Bo said exclaiming in disbelief, “Roberta Lynn? Well, look at you, you look great, Honey!” and Cooter nodded his head in agreement, and Luke said, “You sure do, and I think you look like the Bell of the South”, and Roberta blushed and took off her Glasses, and she explained how she got this look, and how Daisy helped her, and things are better for her now, she thought to herself, as she was enjoying the compliments, and her friends’ company, “I just wish that Luke would ask me out on a date, or I have the courage to do it”, and then by that time, the time flew, and Daisy and Roberta Lynn got ready for the Lunch Crowd. The next following week was pretty busy at “The Boar’s Nest”, and every up and coming band played, and one particular night, Roberta Lynn had the night off, and she was wearing a Pale Pink Dress, and her hair was swept up, and Luke came in with Bo, and Bo went to talk to Daisy, and Luke saw Roberta Lynn, and went over to her, and said, “Roberta Lynn? May I have this dance?” and she said with a smile, “I thought you never asked”, and they danced, and fire passed through them as they were close together, and she suddenly felt pressure, and fear, and said, “I am sorry, I can’t do this”, and she left “The Boar’s Nest” in a hurry. The next night, Luke went to find out what is going on with Roberta Lynn, and the evening was relaxing, and Luke was relaxing with Bo, Cooter, Daisy, and Jesse, and Luke saw that Roberta Lynn was working, and decided to wait until she got off of her shift, and he saw Ernie Ledbetter put the moves on her, and grabbed her roughly, and Luke went to interfere, and his family and Cooter tried to stop him, but it was too late, Ernie hit Luke, and he hit the ground hard, and Roberta Lynn was in disbelief, and said angrily, “You, Pig!”, and hit him so hard that he went through the table, and she said to his friends with venom, “Take him out of here, before I do something I am gonna regret later, Now Git!”, and everyone cheered, and applauded with whistles, and she took her bow, no one ever messed with her again, and she saw Luke bleeding from the lip, and the head, and a bruise was forming, and she said to Bo, and Cooter, “Take him to the Back Room, I will take care of him there”, and they nodded, and she told Daisy, and Jesse, “Don’t worry, I will take care of him”, they told her “Thanks”, and she, Bo, and Cooter were stopped by Boss Hogg, and Rosco. “I want Luke Duke arrested for disturbing the Peace, and starting a Fight”, and he said to the Sheriff, “Rosco, Go and do your job”, and Roberta Lynn said stopping him, “Don’t you dare touch him, if you do, I will carry out Daisy’s threat, Understand? Boss, make your self scarce, and go into your office, and Sheriff Coltrane, Haul butt, and get me the First-Aid Kit on the double”, and Boss went into his office with a huff, and slammed the door, and Rosco went to get the First-Aid Kit, and followed them, and Bo said with a chuckle, “Nice job, Honey, I couldn’t have done it better myself”, and he put an arm around her shoulder, and followed everyone in the Back Room of “The Boar’s Nest”, Cooter, Bo, and Rosco left, leaving Luke in Roberta Lynn’s care. When Bo and Cooter rejoined Daisy and Jesse, at their table. Jesse said, “He really does love that girl does he?” and Cooter said, “Oh yeah, he does”, and Bo said, “I hope it works out for them both”, and Daisy said with a smile, “Cousin, you just need to have faith”, and Bo said smiling, “Cousin, you are right”, and they enjoyed what was left of the evening. Luke came around, and asked what happened, and Roberta Lynn filled him in, and she said with a smile, “Don’t worry, I sent him home with his pride hurting”, and Luke laughed, and stopped fast, and said, “Please stop, it hurts to laugh”, and Roberta Lynn proceed to treat his injuries, and when she saw that he was OK, she helped him back to everyone else, and she was off of her shift then, and she had fun with the Dukes, and Cooter. Luke came by “The Boar’s Nest” the next morning, and he spotted Roberta Lynn setting each table, and he said happily, “Hello, Gorgeous!” and she looked up with a smile, and said exclaiming happily, “Hello, Handsome!” and she invited him to sit down, and he said, “Roberta Lynn, I was wondering if you would like to go out with me?” and she was speechless, and she said, “I would love to”, and he said giving her his irresistible grin, “Great, I will call you with the details”, and she nodded, and served his usual breakfast to him, and after he ate, he went home to tell his family, and they were happy for him. A couple nights later the date happened, and Luke took Roberta Lynn out for Dinner and Dancing in Atlanta, and they had a great time, and then they went to Whitman’s Peak, to catch the sunset, and then once that was over, they kissed slowly, and then with more hungrier, and Roberta Lynn stopped it, and said, “Luke, I think we should take things slow”, and he said agreeing, “I think so too, I don’t want you to do anything you are uncomfortable with”, and she nodded appreciatively, and they spent the rest of the time talking. The rest of the Dukes notice the change and so did Cooter, and they thought that Luke and Roberta Lynn made the right decision, and the couple are getting to know each other, and Luke never felt this way about a girl before, and he knew that he loved her, and she loves him, and they have a lot in common, and have the same interests, and that there is chemistry between the two of them, every time they look at each other, and they like that feeling. A month later, Luke and Roberta Lynn were in the Hayloft of the Duke Farm, and they were snuggled against each other watching the stars that hot evening, and she said with content, “I am the happiest woman in the world, and the luckiest woman in the world, I got the catch of Hazzard County, and the other women aren’t too thrilled”, and Luke chuckled, and kissed the top of her head, “I don’t want to be anywhere else, Darling”, and they shared a hot passionate kiss, and then she unbuttoned his shirt all the way, and got it off, and slowly rubbed her hands all over his chest, muscles, and stomach, and every sensitive part of his body, and he shivered at her touch, and said, “Are you sure, Roberta Lynn, Are you sure that you want to do this?”, and she said with a smile, “I am very sure, Sugar”, and he got her out of her clothes, and she hungrily went for his belt, and released him of his desire, and they made love in the moonlight, and they were as one, and in sync, and then she shuttered as Luke kissed her thigh, and rubbed his rugged hands all over her body, and she loved it, and moaned out loudly, “Ohhh, Luke!”, and she worked on increasing his desire for her, and as soon as he came, he said moaning, “Ohhh, you are so cruel, but don’t stop!”, and they continued to inflict the pleasures of love on each other, they stopped and were panting, and once they got their breath, Luke said, “I love you, Baby”, and she smiled and said, “Darling, I love you too”, and he wrapped his arms around her, and she felt safe, and secure with him, and they fell asleep in no time, and she thought to herself, “If this is a dream, I don’t want to wake up”, and she settled in with Luke, and fell asleep, and nothing in the world can disturb them. In the morning, the happy couple woke up, and made love again, and Luke said with a smile breathlessly, “That is some wake up call!” and she agreed, and they quickly dressed, and went to breakfast with the family, and once they got inside, Jesse, Bo, and Daisy knew what happened, and Luke went to shower and change, and then the couple told them that it’s official, and everyone was happy, and Roberta Lynn decided to stay, and that made Luke even more happier. The next couple of months, Roberta Lynn, and Luke were thick as thin, and they also did stuff on their own, and Roberta Lynn became the sought Waitress after Daisy, and her confidence is much higher, and Daisy and her get along so well, and so much to Boss Hogg’s dismay, he promoted her to the Assistant Manager, and Daisy welcomed the help, and Roberta Lynn Parker became a great Waitress along with her best friend.

But they loved each other, and nothing can break them up for anything in the world. One night, Luke and Anita went to the Hayloft hungry for each other, and they were undressing each other, and he said as he unhooked her bra, “You are so beautiful, Lady”, and she said as she got his shirt off, and rubbed her hands all over his body, and muscles, “You ain’t bad looking yourself, Cowboy”, and then she got his jeans off, and worked on his desire, and he moaned, and groaned in pleasure, and he was loving her touches, and he couldn’t wait until her hands come over his body, and it feels like fire tingling all over his body. She feels the same way about Luke, and how she feels secure with him, and no matter what, they are as one, and in sync when they make love. The next month, Luke and Roberta Lynn had a wonderful evening, and he decided to propose, and she said with tears in her eyes exclaiming out loud, “Yes!” and they hugged, and kissed, and they told his family, and they celebrated, and they had a beautiful Wedding, and they moved into the farm, and everyone lived happily ever after and in peace.

Selena took a shower in “The Boar’s Nest” Dressing Room that Rosco had installed for any Performer to use, and it was next to his office, it was big and comfortable with a Living Room to relax in, and she took a long shower, and forgot her problems, and she thought of Luke, and she thought to herself, “Maybe I can start a new relationship, and maybe it can be with him”, after the shower, she dressed in her Soft Velvet Robe, and sat down with some Green Tea to help keep her voice in shape, until it was time for her to change into her outfit for the night, and go out there to perform. Luke was lost in thought, and Bo looked over at his cousin, and said with a smile, “A Penny for your thoughts, Cousin?” and Luke smiled and said, “I am thinking about Selena”, and Bo said with a teasing tone exclaiming, “What surprise!” and Luke gave him a look, and then said, “Maybe tonight is the night I ask her to go out with me while she is here in Hazzard County”, and Bo said teasing, “Luke and Selena….”, and Luke looked at him ruefully, and punched him hard on his shoulder, and Bo said laugh exclaiming, “Ouch!, I forgot how hard you hit”, and Luke said with a grin, “Next time, Maybe you will remember before you open your mouth to tease me”, and Bo said, “OK, OK, I am sorry, I just wish you the best of luck with Selena”, and Luke said seriously this time, with a smile, “Thanks, Cousin”, and the rest of the ride is made in silence. Selena fell asleep on her couch, and she was having a pleasant sleep until her nightmare showed up, and here it was. She just finished up a show, in San Antonio, Texas, and she went into her Dressing Room, cause she had a headache, and all of sudden, he came in, and had a smile on his face, and she said, “Get me an Aspirin, and some water please?” and he did, and then he said, “You did great, Honey”, and she was pleased with the compliments, and then he began to massage her neck, and she let him, and then he kissed the side of her neck, and reached around, and grabbed one of her breasts, and she said, “No” and he said, “Oh come on, you know you want it, come on, and relax, baby”, and she loosened his grip, and she said more forcefully, “No”, and he said, “Well, you are mine, and nothing is gonna change that”, and ripped her Flimsy Robe, and she was naked underneath, and he had his way with her, and she screamed, “NO!!!!”, and he slapped her and was rough with her, and she didn’t have the strength to get him off, and then he covered her mouth, and she still can scream, and suddenly she heard her name being called, and she struggling to wake up, and she had a little bit sweat on her forehead, and breathing hard…There was someone familiar, but she couldn’t make out the form, and when she opened her eyes, and she saw it was DAISY!, she is trying help her, she woke up with relief, and her breathing returned to normal. “Selena, Are you ok, Sugar?” and Selena quickly said, “I am fine, Daisy, Thanks for waking me up”, and the Duke beauty said, “Rosco says, “It’s time to get ready”, so you should go and get dressed”, and Selena nodded, and said, “OK”, and she decided on a pair of Blue Jeans, and a Pink Tank top, to show off her cleavage, some light pink high heeled Boots to complete the outfit, and she turned to Daisy, and asked, “How do I look?” and Daisy said exclaiming honestly, “Honey, When Luke takes one look at you, he is gonna need a cold shower to cool himself! and they both laughed, and Daisy was relieved to see her new friend lightening up, but she still is gonna alert the boys, Cooter, and Jesse on what is going on, and then once Selena had her hair in a braid, Daisy said, “Let’s go”, and they went out to see how the turnout is. Cooter smiled as Bo and Luke entered and indicated to join him, he has their Beers already set, and he told Cooter what he told Bo, and he was happy for his best friend, and they talked about what else was going on, and then Daisy joined them and gave them all a kiss, and a hug, and she told them with concern what just happened with Selena, and Bo said, “Don’t push, when she is ready, she will talk to us”, Luke said, “We will keep a watch on her”, and Cooter said, “We better let Uncle Jesse know what is going on”, and Daisy said agreeing, “Exactly what I was thinking, Cooter”, and they forgot their problem for the time being, and one of the Waitresses brought Daisy her usual drink, and they turned their attention towards Selena starting her show. Selena came out, and she had her usual smile on her face, and she said in a commanding tone to the House Band, “Let’s do it!”, and the music started up, and she went into her 1st song for the night, and she was enjoying herself, and everyone was singing along, even the Dukes, and Cooter, and that made her feel good, and she was giving it 110%, and she loved it when the crowd request songs, and even songs of the past, and when the 3rd came up, she announced, “I have a special treat for you: Hazzard’s Son, the Pride of your County, Luke Duke!”, and he was shocked to hear her calling his name, and she indicated to him to come on the stage with her. He smiled and said, “You are bad”, and she just smiled, and said to the Band, “We are gonna do some Duets”, and after they decided on which songs, they began, and Selena knew that Luke was a great singer, and they complimented each other, and Daisy, Bo, and Cooter that right then and there, it was love at first sight for both of them. They did their 3rd Duet, and it went over big, and then she said exclaiming softly, “Thanks, Luke, you were great”, and she gave him a kiss on the cheek, and they both felt the sparks fly between them, and he left the stage, and as he was leaving, Selena said loudly, “Please give it up one more time for Luke Duke, Come on, Y’all!”, and everyone cheered and whooped, and he took his bow, and left to go back to his table, and he thought to himself, “Man, I need a cold shower after this!”, and he took a swig of his beer, and was fan himself off, and Daisy, Cooter, and Bo looked at each other, and know full well what caused Luke to act like that all of sudden, and they snuck a smile at each other. The next morning Luke was doing a workout in the Barn, and he was thinking about Selena, and he decided that the next time he sees her, he is going to admit how he feels around her, and ask her to go out with him. He never thought he would feel like that again, he thought Roberta Lynn was the one, but faith had other ideas for them, she died in an accident, and it took Luke a long time to get over it, and he decided if Selena is the one, he isn’t going to wait, which is unusual for him. He worked out until he was real sweaty, and decided to go into house, and get his swimsuit on, and go to the pond behind his house for a swim to cool himself off, and to help him with his thoughts of Selena. Selena was practicing one of her Dance Routines for one of her songs, and she was doing the steps with intensity, and with passion, and she was also thinking about Luke, and how it felt giving him that kiss on the cheek, and she thought to herself, “I would want a relationship with him and make it work, but I am wondering if he wants it too?” and she continued her steps, and was doing it without mistakes, and she took a break, and took a swig of water from her bottle, and she had another thought, “I got to set him straight on what my terms for this new relationship is gonna be, and we have to go slow, I think that he is gonna respect me”, and she went back to her work, and putting thoughts of Luke out of her mind. Joe Daniels witnessed what happened at “The Boar’s Nest”, and he was not happy, he didn’t stand a chance cause from what he heard, Luke Duke was well respected around Georgia, and he has women coming on to him, and Joe knew the only way to have Selena to himself, so he can talk some sense into her, and also to have some privacy, he has to kidnap her, and if she doesn’t cooperate with him, she won’t survive to see her singing career turn into a success. Selena was busy earning her keep by helping Jim stock the day’s Liquor Deliveries behind the Bar, and she was humming to herself, and she saw Luke come in, and she exclaimed with a smile, “Hello there, Blue Eyes!” and he exclaimed back with his irresistible grin, “Hello there, Gorgeous!” and she said with hand gesturing to the rows of Liquor, “What’s your poison?” and he said simply, “I’ll have a Beer, please”, and she got it for him, and returned her attention to him, and decided to address about the previous night. “I am so sorry for putting on the spot last night, my regular partner was sick and I was desperate for someone”, and he said with a smile, “Don’t worry about it, I forgot how much I loved singing with the guys”, and she smiled and said, “Good, I am glad”, and then he turned serious, and said, “Selena, Can I ask you something?” and she nodded and said, “Sure, Luke, anything, you know that”, and he took a deep breath, and said, “I was wondering if you would like to go with me? Also have dinner with me and my family tonight?” and she said nodding and smiling, “Yes, I would love to”, and he grinned and said, “Great”, and she said stopping him, “Before, we hash out the details, I need to talk to you about something, Will you be here later tonight?” and he nodded, and said, “8:00?” and she smiled and said, “Perfect”, and he went to spend some time with Bo, and he thought to himself, “Good, We will lay our cards on the table”, and he got into the “General Lee” and went to pick up Bo at the Farmhouse. Jesse and Daisy were busy making some dinner for everyone, and Selena is coming over at Jesse’s request, and he hopes that she is respectful, and loving, and not a selfish person, and not hurt Luke in the process, and if she does, Jesse would be on her like fish on bait, but he is not gonna be pessimist, and he is gonna be looking for the good in her, and not the bad. Selena was finishing up the task, and she was looking forward to her talk with Luke, and maybe a having a future together, and she was singing, and humming, and having a good time, and she was busy putting some of the Bar Glasses away, and she looked out in front of her, and screamed when she saw a form standing in front of her, and she dropped the glass, and she was shaking nervously, cause she knows who it is standing in front of her. Later on around 8:00, Bo said as he handed Luke a wrench, “So you are gonna tell her tonight?” and Luke said, “I am, but she has something to tell me, so I am gonna let her have her say, and then I will tell her”, and he suddenly was fearful, and said, “I hope she says to being my girlfriend, and likes me”, and Bo said as he puts an arm around his shoulder, “She is gonna love you, and she would want to be with you, like you want to be with her, you will work it out”, and Luke smiled, and felt better, and said to him, “Thanks, Cousin, you know the right things to say to make me feel better”, and Bo said with a smile, “It’s payback for taking care of me when we were kids, so it’s my turn”, and Luke nodded, and they put their tools, washed their hands, and got into the “General Lee”, and he dropped off Bo at Cooter’s to help with the Inventory that Cooter had to do, and Luke made his way to “The Boar’s Nest” with more confidence now. Selena asked angrily to Joe, “What the hell are you doing here?” and Joe said with a smile, “Don’t be like that, Baby, I am here to see if you can give me another chance, so we can talk”, and Selena said with venom, “Not a chance!” and she went to her Dressing Room, and he stopped her. “Come on, just hear me out”, and she held out two fingers, indicating he has two minutes, and she said, “You have two minutes”, and he smiled and led her to the table. Luke was enjoying the scenery in front of him, and he was excited about bringing Selena back to farm, to have dinner with him and his family, and he really hopes that Jesse likes her and expresses his opinion about her, cause besides Bo’s opinion, Jesse’s opinion really matters to him too, and he hopes that everyone agrees that Selena is the one for him. Surprisingly Joe was being a gentleman, and Selena was glad that he was listening and responding according to her plan, and terms, and she found it easier without fear, to talk to him, and she said getting up, “I am sorry, Joe, but it’s over, and I hope we can be friends”, and suddenly he got angry, “No, I don’t want to be friends, I want us to be together”, and he grabbed her arm roughly, and she got control of the situation and said without trembling, “Please, let me go”, and he wouldn’t said angrily, “No, not unless, you see things my way!”, and he grabbed her and kissed her, and then let her go, and they heard the “General Lee” pulled up, and she said, “You better go, before Luke catches you”, and he said, “It’s not over for you or your Plowboy”, and he went out the Back way and left her trembling, as Luke came in. “Hey, Gorgeous, Are you ready for some good home cooking?” and Luke saw Selena trembling at the table and ran over to her, and he said, “Hey, Are you all right?” and she nodded, and said composing herself, “I will tell you at the farm, we can’t keep your family waiting”, and he nodded, and they went outside, and he helped her into the “General”, and he got in, and started up the car, and they drove off, and occasionally he kept his eye on Selena, and found that she was comfortable now, and he kept his eyes on the road for the rest of the time, and when they got to the Duke Farm, they went in for the supper that Jesse prepared. Jesse smiled when his oldest nephew and their new Dinner Guest came in, and when he saw the condition of Selena and Luke’s eyes telling him what happened, Jesse said calling out in a commanding tone, “Daisy, Get some of Raspberry Herbal Tea, and bring in here on the double!” and she did just that, and then he made Selena feel welcomed, and then they had a pleasant conversation, and then they had a wonderful meal, and dessert, and then when they had their Coffee, and Selena had her Warm Milk in the Living Room, Luke said as they all sat down, “OK, Selena, Out with it, Tell us what is going on that made you so scared at “The Boar’s Nest”?”, and she prepared to tell them the full story of her past. Selena took a deep breath, and said, “OK, this happened as I was starting out, I was doing a gig in San Antonio, Texas, and I was on the right track to a wonderful career, and I had a wonderful Manager, Joe Daniels, and he treated with love and respect, and I loved him like a brother, but he wanted more…” and tears were overflowing in her eyes, and Luke squeezed her hand, and encouraging her to go on, she wiped her tears, and composed herself, then continued on with her story, and said, “I was in my Dressing Room, and I just got out of the shower, and I had my robe on, and Joe came to tell me like usual that I did a great job, and he massaged my shoulders, kissed the side of my neck, and then he grabbed my breasts, and I told him “no”, and then he told me to relax, and that I wanted it, and I loosen my grip and told him more forcefully “no”, and then he told me that I was his, and nothing will changed that, and he ripped off my robe, and I was shouting “NO!!!!”, and he slapped me, and was rough with me, then he had his way with me”, he covered my mouth when I was screaming, but I could still scream, and no one was coming, and then after he left, and I fired him, and he made me believed it was my fault, and it was, cause I couldn’t fight him, and every since then I took a lot of showers, to get the filth off, and I had many nightmares, and the Police were helpful, but couldn’t get enough evidence to convict, and now he is here in Hazzard County, he tracked me down, and he was at “The Boar’s Nest”, and like a fool, I listened to him begging for a second chance, and when I said, “No, it was over”, he got angry with me, and I was afraid that he was gonna do it to me again, and he would have if it wasn’t for Luke coming to get me in the “General Lee”, and I am afraid that I won’t be safe ever again”, and she cried harder this time. Luke was seeing red in front of him, but managed to keep his temper in check, and moved over to comfort Selena, “I promise you, You will feel safe again, You trust me, right?” and she sniffled and said, “Yes, I do”, and then Luke said, “You won’t be alone at “The Boar’s Nest” anymore, and when you are working me and Bo will keep an eye on you, and if I am not there after you finish your shift, Bo will bring you home, and if he is not there, Cooter will take care of you”, and he looked at Bo, “If Joe shows up…”, Bo said finishing his thought, “I will pound him into the ground, Cousin, don’t you worry”, and Daisy said, “Honey, I will be there too as backup, if one of the boys can’t be with you”, and she smiled at Daisy, and thanked her, and she hugged her new friends, and Jesse said, “You are moving in here with us”, and Selena began to protest, “But, Mr. Duke…”, and Jesse cut her off, and said, “Please call me Uncle Jesse, you will share a room with Daisy, and the boys will go over to the Hazzard County Motel, and pack up your stuff”, and Daisy, Bo, and Luke nodded, and then Jesse gave Daisy and Bo the cue to “Let’s give them some privacy”, and the three of them went to the Kitchen to get some more dessert for all of them, and Selena was feeling better now, and she turned to Luke and said this to him. “See why I am hesitating about this new relationship, Luke?” and he nodded, and he filled her in on his last relationship, and they way Roberta Lynn died, and she told him how sorry she was, and he thanked her. Then after awhile, she said sighing, “It will take me a long time for me to trust a man again”, and he nodded in understanding, and she said, “If this is gonna work, we have to go slow, and I would love to go out with you and be yours”, and that made Luke smile, and said, “Darling, We can go any way you want, you are in the Driver’s seat, sort of speaking”, and they both laughed, and then they shared a kiss, and a hug, and stayed in the embrace for awhile, and they both felt content, Jesse, Bo, and Daisy smiled, as they watched from the Kitchen, then they cleared their throats, to announce themselves, and brought in the dessert, and for the rest of the night, it was pleasant. Jesse, Bo, and Daisy all loved Selena, and hopes that everything works out for her and Luke. The Dukes and Selena went to inform Rosco and his Deputies about Joe Daniels, and about the rape he committed in San Antonio, Texas, and they promised that they would do anything to help cause they loved Selena, and she is nice to them, and Rosco said, “Don’t worry, we will get him, and we will have State Police on hand, and Texas State Police to be tried there, and if he does anything here, he will be tried here too, and he won’t be so lucky this time”, and the Dukes, and Selena thanked him and the Deputies, and they left to go to the Café for breakfast, and then they will go separate ways to start their day. Joe kept his distance away from “The Boar’s Nest” as he watched Daisy, and Selena entered the bar, and he was angry at the sight of Daisy and he said to himself angrily, “She is always with those annoying Hicks, and I will get them away from her, especially that Luke Duke, and believe I will, and she will be mine again!” and he got into his car, and starting to make his plans in his mind. Selena got together with the House Band, and discuss some new songs for a upcoming show there, and then they did the songs, and Daisy was watching intently making sure that she was safe, and after awhile, Cooter, Luke, and Bo came in, and she filled them in that Selena is safe, and no suspicious came in, and Cooter told her that he now knows Selena’s situation, and agreed to help, and the Dukes were grateful, and they turned back to Selena’s Rehearsal, and singing. When Selena did the 12th and last song, Cooter, and the Dukes stood up and applauded and gave her a standing ovation, and she and the Band took their bows, and she ordered the Band to take a break, and she went over to her friends, and she asked hopefully, “So, What do you think, Guys?” and the Dukes and Cooter looked at each other, and at her. “Baby, You were great, I absolutely loved it”, Cooter said with a smile, and she looked at him and said gratefully, “Thanks, Cooter”, and Daisy exclaimed with excitement, “Wow, Sugar, You will have everyone dancing, and then singing with you, if you keep up this energy!” and Selena said with a smile, “I sure hope so, Daisy”, and Bo said equally excited, and exclaimed, “I think you picked the right number of songs, and the right songs, and if you need a backup Guitar Man, and Singer, Would you consider me? I will be there in a second for you, Darlin’!” and he hugged her, and she hugged him back and exclaimed happily, “Thanks, Bo, anytime you want, you can sing with me, cause you have one hell of a voice!” and then she looked at Luke and the sparks relit, and he said to her as he squeezed her hand for a second, “Honey, You are gonna wow them, and a have a successful show, and you can do anything if you put your mind to something”, and she was grateful for the support, and gave him a kiss on the cheek, and said, “Thanks, Sugar”, and then Jim came out and announced he needs help with the deliveries, and stocking up the shelves, and Selena, Cooter, and the Dukes without hesitating, went to help the friendly Bartender and Manager. Just as the Dukes and Cooter predicted, Selena’s show was a success, and Jesse came this time and he loved the show, and that made Selena happy, and he went home cause he has an early day the next day, and Cooter said to her, “We should celebrate”, and everyone agreed, and they decided to go to Chickasaw County, to go Dancing, and have a fun evening there. Meanwhile that evening, Joe found an abandoned cabin that belong to a family named, Robertson, and Boss Hogg foreclosed on it, but never sold it, and it lays in Hazzard County Woods, and he got everything ready, and he made the bed really comfortable for the upcoming day of passion, and he decided that the cabin is perfect, so they can have privacy, and the more he thought of Selena, the more he got turned on, and he went to have a Cold Shower, and having a night out himself, he decided to have fun in Atlanta. After their dinner, Cooter, Daisy, and Bo decided to give Luke and Selena some time alone, and they went to have some Ice Cream at the local Diary Queen, and Luke and Selena went for a walk, and they were looking at the stars, and she said, “They are beautiful”, and Luke said looking at her, “So are you, Darling”, and she blushed, and said, “Thanks, you are full of compliments, Aren’t you, Luke?” and he said with flirting smile, “Only when it’s true, Honey”, and she gave him a kiss, and he kissed her back, and they broke it before it goes too fast, and continued their journey. Daisy was doing the table setup at “The Boar’s Nest”, and Selena was helping her doing it, and Daisy noticed it, and said smiling, “You sure are in a great mood today, Sugar”, and Selena said smiling too, “It’s your cousin, he is doing everything right, and is so understanding of what I want, I got a good feeling about our future”, and Daisy said smiling, “Well, Me, Uncle Jesse, and Bo are so happy for you, and we hope that the future is bright for you”, and she hugged her friend, and Selena said with a smile, “Thanks, Daisy”, and hugged her back. They went back to their chores, and getting everything that night. Bo and Luke were finishing up their afternoon chores, before meeting Daisy and Selena at “The Boar’s Nest”, and Bo noticed the smile on Luke’s face, and he said with a smile, “ A penny for your thoughts, Luke?” and Luke snapped back to the Present, and said with a smile, and said, “I am sorry, Bo, yeah, I am just thinking about Selena”, and Bo nodded with a smile, waiting for Luke continued on, and Luke said, “Even if she isn’t there in front of me, I can’t stop thinking about her, and I never felt this way before Roberta Lynn or after, and she makes me happy, and I loved the pace we are at”, and Bo said putting his hand on his shoulder smiling, “Me, Daisy, and Uncle Jesse are so happy for you, and we wish you the best of luck for your future”, and Luke said smiling, “Thanks, Cousin”, and they went back to their work, and then went home to shower, and change their clothes. Later that night, Rosco informed Selena and the House Band that they have the night off, and another band is coming in to play, so they weren’t needed, and they thanked him, and went off to have their own fun, and Selena went to change she put her hair up on her head, and secured it with a clip, and put on a killer outfit, A Hot Pink Low Tank top to show off her cleavage, and a matching Hot Pink Skirt, then she put on her matching high heels, and decided that it was a great outfit, and went outside to the Bar, and have a drink, hung out with Daisy, while waiting for the others. She can’t wait to see Luke, and have him next to her when they dance together later on the evening. Jesse was relaxing after supper, and he was listening to the television, and Luke and Bo came down after their showers, Luke decided on a pair of Black Jeans, and a White Shirt, with the usual three buttons unbuttoned, and with his Tan skin, and his muscles, Jesse thought he was the handsomest man in Hazzard County, and Bo decided on pair of Darker Blue Jeans, and a Black Shirt, and his three buttons are undone also, and Jesse thought to himself, “Bo looks good too, and my boys are real heartbreakers, and Hazzard County Girls, you better watch out”, and then he snapped back in the Present, “You better mind yourself, Fellas, and stay out of trouble, and be careful”, and both Bo and Luke said in unison, “Yes, Sir”, and headed out for their night out. When Luke and Bo came into “The Boar’s Nest”, they found Selena with Daisy on a couple of barstools, and she looked at Luke, and thought to herself, “He looks absolutely drop dead handsome”, and when he saw her, he thought to himself, “She looks absolutely super fantastic tonight”, and they went over to the two girls, and the girls informed them that Selena, and the House Band have the night off courtesy of Rosco P. Coltrane, and she said to Luke, “You look absolutely handsome tonight, Sugar”, and he smiled and said, “You look terrific, no matter what you do”, and she thanked him, and she said to himself softly, “Later, I am yours”, and Luke said in a teasing tone with the smile, “Ohhh, the endless possibilities”, and she said reminding him, “Remember you…” and she was cut off by him, Luke said, “I know, I know, I promise to wait, but it’s so hard to”, and Selena said with a smile, “It won’t be much longer, I promise”, and they shared a short passionate kiss, then, they turned their attention back to Daisy and Bo, and they had a wonderful conversation, and Cooter came in to join them, and they all were enjoying each other’s company, and then before they knew it, the usual crowd showed up, and the Band too, and the evening turned out to be a successful one. Joe decided against Atlanta, and went to “The Boar’s Nest”, and sat in his usual corner booth, and the waitress brought his drink over to him, after he ordered it, and he saw Selena dancing with Luke, and that got his blood boiling, and he thought to himself, “Selena, Tomorrow, you will be mine, and no one will come between us again”, and he drank his drink, paid for it, and hurried back to his rented cabin, and started to make all of the arrangements. The next day, Selena volunteered to do Table Setup, and Daisy offered to go in her place, and Selena insisted that she could do it, and she said, “Besides Joe probably went home, after he saw how serious I was about me wanting nothing to do with him anymore”, and Daisy nodded, but still wasn’t feeling better on letting Selena going by herself, and taking “Dixie”, but she shook off the feeling, and said, “OK, go, but please be careful before Luke and Uncle Jesse tan both of our hides”, and she nodded, and kissed her friend on the cheek, and left for “The Boar’s Nest”, and Daisy heard her jeep roared to life, and sped off out of the driveway. Joe got to “The Boar’s Nest” before Selena, and he was hiding out in the Back Room, and heard the side door open and close, and he peeked through the doorway, and saw it was Selena, and he thought to himself, “Everything is going according to plan, and I will have her and we can get out of this town”, and he went back to the space he was hiding, and waited until it was the right time to kidnap her, and bring her to the cabin. Luke, Cooter, and Bo came back to the farm, and weren’t pleased to find out that Selena is by herself at “The Boar’s Nest”, and Daisy said, “She was determined to get her life back, and I couldn’t hold her here, and she is sure that Joe went home and will stop pestering her”, and Bo said raising a eye at him, “She’s got a point there, Luke, and we have to respect that she wants to be independent”, and Luke had a bad feeling about it, and shook it off for Selena’s sake, and he said, “Right, She would call on the C.B., if she has any trouble”, and Cooter said reassuring him, “She would, and we will be there in two shakes of a Lamb’s tail”, and Luke nodded, and they went inside to see if Jesse needs help with anything. Selena was singing and humming as she was doing the tables, and doing the setup, and she was enjoying the peace and quiet, and she also can’t wait for a nice quiet romantic evening with Luke, just her and him looking under the stars, and enjoying the cool evening air, and she was going back to the bar, when Joe grabbed her from behind, and she screamed, and fought back, and struggled against him, she made a mess, but he ripped off her necklace off of her neck, and put chloroform in front of her on a cloth, and she slumped into his arms, and he said to her sleeping form, “I am sorry, Honey, but I can’t having you fight, and bite at me trying to escape, when we can have a future together”, and he kissed her on the forehead, and he thought to himself as he carried her outside to put her in the car, “I hope she understands that this is for her own good”, and he put her in the backseat, and made her comfortable, and drove off to the Robertson Cabin, and hoping that she would see things his way when she wakes up. The Dukes and Cooter were done with the chores outside chores for the farm, Jesse told them to have the rest of the time off, and enjoy it. Daisy looked at her watch, and said to the three men, “I don’t like it, Selena should be back by now”, and Cooter wiped his hands on his rag he was using and said agreeing, “It shouldn’t take long to set up for the Dinner Rush”, and Bo and Luke put their shirts on, after they washed and wiped their hands on their rags, Bo said buttoning his shirt except for the top three, and tucking it in, “She is in trouble”, and Luke said exclaiming angrily, as he was doing the same, “That Bastard has her! Let’s go!” and on the way they tried her on the C.B., and got no answer, and they went on route to “The Boar’s Nest” to see if they aren’t too late to help Selena. Joe got Selena back to the cabin, and laid her down on the bed, and tied her arms and legs with the ropes to the Bedposts, and then he sat beside her, and stroke her hair, and he said softly in her ear, “Don’t worry, Darling, you will get use to this, and if you are good, I will let you free, and then we can focus on us without interruptions”, and then he fell asleep with her, and cuddle next to her, and soon joined her in a peaceful sleep. When they got to “The Boar’s Nest” they got inside, and were shocked at the sight before them, and Luke was sad, and angry at the same time, and Bo put his hand on Luke’s shoulder, and told him confidently, “We will find her, and get Daniels in jail”, and Luke nodded, and they hugged, and Luke said in full leader mode, “Bo, Get on the C.B. there, and get Rosco, Cletus, and Enos here, we are gonna need them”, and he nodded, and Luke went to help Daisy set the chairs the right way, and Bo helped them after he was done with the C.B. After awhile, Selena woke up not knowing where she was, and Joe entered with some Sandwiches, and Soup, with a glass of Lemonade, and he said exclaiming with a smile, “Hey, You are up!” and she glared him, and he set her arms free, and helped her sit up, “Eat up, you’re gonna need all of your strength for later”, and he chuckled at the comment, and shuddered at thought of them alone, and left the room, and Selena picked up and ate a sandwich, and had some soup, and drank some Lemonade, and pretty soon, she was done, and then she looked out the Dusty Window, and thought to herself, “Please someone, someone please find me before I get raped by this psycho”, and she thought to herself pleading, “Luke, please hurry and free me”, and then she went back to sleep. Rosco and his Deputies came over, and he said apologizing, “Sorry, I was on the phone with both State Police from here, and Texas, and I filled them in, so we are all set whenever you are”, he said to Luke, and Luke nodded, and said, “Just have yourself, Enos, and Cletus along with the State Police setting up Road Blocks”, and the elderly Sheriff, and Commissioner nodded, and gathered up the evidence they need, which some blood, the Chloroformed Cloth, and the necklace, and the Dukes and Cooter burned rubber to figure out where Joe took Selena. Joe put a gag over Selena’s mouth, and said in triumph, “No one will hear you scream from miles”, and she struggled as he retied the ropes around her arms once more, and then with his hands undid each button of shirt with ease, and tossed it behind him, then he kissed the side of her neck, and she thought to herself, “I hate him! I can’t believe I am responding to this, No!” and with hunger in his eyes, he pushed up her bra, and licked and tease each nipple and breast, and she moaned through the gag, and thinking once again, “No you idiot! Don’t surrender to him, make your thoughts known, and wiggle him off! Help!” and she screamed through the gag, and he was pleased with her suppose thoughts, and began to work on her Jeans, and she screamed through the gag, “NO!!!” and Joe said with a smile, “I am beginning to enjoy this, and you should too, Baby, relax”, and she gave him a look of spite, and he pulled her Jeans half way down, and then he pulled her panties down, and began to work on that area, and her thighs, and she gave involuntarily moan of pleasure, which pleased Joe, and he kept on until she started to have tears in her eyes from the ordeal. The Dukes and Cooter were on route, and they were all lost in their thoughts, and looking at the scenery, and all of sudden Bo had an idea, and he said to Luke, “If Daniels wanted privacy, the only place he can go to is Hazzard County Woods, and rent that old cabin that Boss Hogg foreclosed on a few years ago”, and Luke said smiling exclaiming, “Of Course, The Old Robertson Place! You are a genius, Bo!” and Bo said with a smile, “I know”, and Luke got on the C.B., and told Cooter and Daisy what the plan is, and he got Rosco and his Deputies too, and told them to meet them at the cabin as soon as they can. Cooter’s Pickup Truck and the “General Lee” picked up speed along their route. Selena was working to get one of her arms free, as Joe was having his way with her again, and she composed herself and thought this to herself, “This is not my fault, and I am not gonna let the bastard get the best of me”, and she thought the best way to outsmart him was to give in, and with intensity she changed her movements, and said through the gag, “I want to kiss you, Sugar”, and Joe was pleased and took the gag off, and with all the passion she can give, she kissed him hungrily, and thought to herself, “Please, God, please, let Luke, Bo, and Daisy find me”, and then she was carrying out her plan. Luke, and the gang got to the cabin, and he said to everyone, “Bo, and Daisy, you get Selena free, and I am gonna get Daniels, and he said to Cooter, and Bo, “If he gets past me, pound him into the ground”, and they both smiled and nodded, and Cooter said declaring, “Yeehaw! This is going to be fun, Buddyroo!” and the Dukes agreed, and they went to ring the doorbell. The Doorbell rang, and Joe was not pleased with the interruption, and he said with a smile to Selena, “I will be back, Darling”, and she said replying, “I can’t wait”, and when he left, she worked on getting one of her hands free, and to break something on the table near her, to indicate she is there, and she hoped that it was the Dukes, and that Luke will teach Joe a lesson he could never forget. Joe answered the door, and he said to the Dukes angrily, “What the hell do you want?” and Luke was struggling to keep his temper in check, and he said calmly, “We want Selena”, and he said, “She isn’t here, I had not seen her or heard from her in 4 years”, and Bo said questioningly, “Really?” and Joe said getting angrily, and said nastily, “Yeah, Really!” and Daisy decided to play Poker, and she had her best face on, and said, “We have a couple witnesses who saw her leaving “The Boar’s Nest” with you”, and Joe said simply, “They are lying” and Cooter said, “Then you don’t mind if we search around here, do you?”, and he let them in, and closed the door, and as soon as they were all in, a small crash was heard, and they began to search all of the rooms of the large cabin. They were near their search, when Daisy saw one more room, and she busted in, and was shocked by the sight in front of her, and she yelled, “Guys, Come here, Quick!” and they rushed in, and then Luke was emotional when she saw the condition Selena was in, and he turned to her captor, and yelled, “You Bastard!” and punched him, and then Cooter, and Bo worked on her legs, and got her underwear, and Jeans up, and Daisy got Selena’s other arm free, and fixed her bra, and Daisy said to Bo, “Bo, Give me your shirt”, and he unbuttoned and went shirtless, and he handed it to her, and she covered Selena with it, and buttoned it up, except for the 1st three buttons, and left it out of her Jeans, and got her out of there, and Bo and Cooter saw that Luke was in trouble, and went to help him, and Joe was putting up a fight, he took out a knife, and cut Luke deep in his shoulder, and Joe refused to go down after awhile. Rosco, Cletus, and Enos showed up and Cletus helped the two girls get into his car for the time being, and then he and Enos went inside with Rosco to help Luke, Bo, and Cooter out, and when they went in, they saw the boys and Joe were fighting, and breaking everything in their path, and then Luke managed to go low, and side sweep and which made his legs buckle from underneath him, and Cooter, and Bo managed to keep down on the ground, and Luke said breathlessly, “Rosco… There …is… your… suspect”, he indicated to Joe, and Rosco, Cletus, and Enos arrested him, read him his rights, and put him in Rosco’s car. When Bo, Luke, and Cooter came out with Rosco, his Deputies, and Joe, Daisy and Selena ran out of the car to check to see if they are OK, and Luke and Selena gave each man a kiss on the cheek, and a hug, and then she saw Luke’s arm and said exclaiming, “Oh my god, Luke, your shoulder!” and Luke assured her with a weary smile, “It looks worse then it feels”, and she and he shared a passionate long kiss, and Daisy, Cooter, and Bo cheered and applauded, and then the new couple went into the “General Lee” with Bo and Daisy, and Cooter was right behind in his Pickup Truck, and Luke went into backseat, and Selena followed him with a towel she found applied pressure on Luke’s wound, he grunted a little from the pain, and Daisy and Bo were in the front, and they all went to Tri-County Hospital, while Rosco, Cletus, and Enos went to the Police Station to arrest Joe, and process him for Hazzard County, Georgia, and San Antonio, Texas. Luke had to have his arm wrapped up and bandaged, and Selena was checked out and both of them were able to go home, and Selena gave up her spot at the Motel, and moved to the Duke Farm, and Selena was loving and attentive to Luke while he was recovering, and when he recovered, everyone was excited about the show, Selena is putting on, and everyone in Hazzard knew it was suppose to be bigger and put her past shows at “The Boar’s Nest” to shame. One night, Selena decided she was gonna cook dinner for the Dukes, as a way to pay them back for everything, and the meal was delicious, and then Bo, Daisy, and Jesse went to relax in the Living Room, and Luke and Selena went outside to look at the stars, and then they looked at each other, and the sparks intensified, and Luke said in a low voice, “Let’s go to the Hayloft and talk”, as he remembered the House Rule: No one sleeps with their intended unless they are married. Plus he wants her to be ready whenever she is comfortable, and she nodded, and held hands on the way there. Selena’s Big Show was success, which wasn’t a surprise, and she had Luke come up and sing with her, and everyone was singing along, clapping their hands, and cheering and hollering, and the energy in “The Boar’s Nest” was great, and then Selena was paid big for her past shows, and that night, and when it was over, she joined her friends, and Jesse, and got some alone time with Luke, as they danced to a couple of songs. A month later, the Joe Daniels Trial was happening, and Selena was more than ready, and the Dukes, and Cooter were giving their support, and there was enough evidence there to convicted, and there was the Rape Kit, that Doc Appleby ordered and performed, and Selena testified on both accounts, and she told how she felt, and the Dukes, and Cooter testified, and he was convicted in Hazzard County, and then when he was tried in Texas, he was to serve 50 years without the possibility of parole, 25 in Texas, and 25 in Hazzard County, and Selena, Cooter, and the Dukes were happy with that sentence, and went to “The Boar’s Nest”, and celebrated the night away. Luke told his family that he really has intense feelings for Selena, and they told him that he has their blessing, and he was grateful for that, and he decided on the perfect night to tell her. He was going take her out for a night on the town, and then he was going to tell her. The date went well, Uncle Jesse was out of town, and Bo went to spend some time with a friend, and Daisy was working the Graveyard Shift at “The Boar’s Nest”, and Luke said, “Come with me to the Hayloft”, and she nodded, and they climbed up, and then they looked at the stars from there, and Luke said, “Selena, I have something to tell you”, and she nodded, she decided that she will go with the flow, and surprise the hell out of Luke of letting him that she was ready for the next step, by making the first move, she gave Luke her full attention. “Selena, I love you, I loved you from the first moment I laid my eyes on you, and you make me feel complete, and I thought I would never find love again since Roberta Lynn, and I enjoy you and everything about you, and I know I want you in my life and here, Would you be mine, and go out with me and spend time together?” and she was touched by his words, and she went for his jeans and undid his belt buckle, and kissed him passionately on the lips, and she said, “Luke, I am ready, and I am ready for us to really be together”, and Luke smiled, and said, “Are you sure? I mean Are you really sure, Sugar?” and she nodded, and she undid his shirt with her fingers and traced the middle of his chest, and he shivered at the touch, and gave in, and he threw the shirt to the side, and he got her out of her top, and he said this to her. “You are so beautiful”, he said as he unclipped her bra, and kissed the side of her neck, and as he undid her bra, her breasts spilled out, and she said with a smile, “You are not so bad looking yourself there, Blue Eyes”, and she got him out of his Jeans, and Boxer Shorts, and reached for his desire, and reached for it, and he moaned in pleasure, and he said in a husky voice, “Ohhh!” and that pleased Selena, and she rubbed every part of Luke’s body, even the most sensitive parts, and he shuddered at her touch, it felt like he was on fire, and Selena was the only cure, and he said with a smile, “My turn”, and he worked his way with her thighs, and worked his way to her sensitive area, and she moaned equally in pleasure, and she said exclaiming huskily, “Ohhh, Luke!”, and that made Luke do it even more, he did every part of her body once more, and Selena felt his desire for her, and that she was on fire too, and she was enjoying the touches, and the loving way he was handling her, and she flipped over, and she was on the top, and he was on the bottom, and she said with smile as he kissed the middle of his chest, and blew on the little bit of chest hair that is there, “Remember that women likes to be on top”, and he said exclaiming moaning, “Oh, yes, Ma’am!”, and she worked on every part of his body, and lightly kissed each area, and worked on his desire, and Luke moaned out exclaiming, “Ohhh, Baby, Yes!”, and he did his share once more, and they were in sync along the Moonlight, and they shivered as each other’s touches were getting the best of them, and also the cool breeze, and they stopped and panting, and they were sweaty, courtesy of the heat, and Luke pulled a sheet on top of them, and he kissed the side of her head, and hugged her close to him, he said, “I love you, Baby”, and she said sighing contently, “I love you too, Darling”, and Luke shut his eyes, and Selena was still awake, and she thought this to herself.

Don’t Touch Me: Two: Luke and Bo came up to see Daisy at the hospital, Doc Appleby stopped them, and he brought them to his office, and he said with a smile, “Daisy is progressing well, she can go home at anytime, but be careful she is still fragile about what happened, and she might not welcome your help at first, but don’t give up, she will get better”, and they nodded, and thanked him, and then went to see Daisy Daisy was looking out the window when they came in, and they put on their best smiles, and Bo said, “Hey, Baby, How are you?” and Daisy still was looking at the window. Luke said, “Hey, Doc Appleby said, “You are doing so well that you can go home at anytime”, and she didn’t say anything, and it brought tears to Luke and Bo’s eyes, and they gave her a kiss, and sat down besides her without saying a word, and trying to make the rest of time in the hospital as pleasant as possible. When it was time for Daisy to be coming home, all of Hazzard County heard, courtesy of Lulu Hogg, she managed to throw a party at “The Boar’s Nest”, and Daisy managed to lighten up a little bit, and talked to Uncle Jesse, and everyone except Bo and Luke, and it began to hurt them, and it shows on their faces, and Jesse took them to the side before the party, and he said, “Give her some time and space, this is still new to her”, and the boys nodded sadly, and they returned their focus to the party. Boss Hogg came up to Daisy, and said, “Daisy, I want you to have the money that is going into the County Fund Accounts”, and he pulled out more money, “This is this for the past 3 months until now, and I want you to have a vacation”, and she was gonna protest, but Boss was persistent, and said, “That is order, and enjoy yourself, OK?” and she nodded and thanked him, and she got her crutches out, and went back to her friends, who was waiting for her. Enos came by, and he was really great with Daisy, and he told her how he felt, and he told her that he would wait for her, and he got a kiss as his reward, and left her alone on the Porch, to think, and she thought to himself, “How could Enos love me, and how could Bo and Luke stand to look at me? It’s my fault I was raped, and I deserved it, and I don’t deserve any happiness, and I won’t never be able to love or find it, if this doesn’t work with Enos”, and she cried and sobbed, until she heard her name being called, and she snapped back to the Present. “Daisy, Are you ok?” and she looked away and quickly wiped her tears, and she turned back to Bo, and said, “Yeah, I am fine”, and Bo knew something was wrong, cause he and Daisy were like twins, and they don’t have to say word, and he said urging, “Come on, Daisy, talk to me”, and she said angrily, “I am fine, Bo!” and both were surprised by the outburst, and then Daisy sighed, and feeling bad, “I am sorry, Bo, I guess I am not feeling well, come on, let’s get some dinner”, and he nodded and he let her go first, and she hobbled in on her crutches, and Bo followed behind, and they went inside, and Bo made a mental note in his head to talk to Jesse and Luke, when Daisy went to bed that night. Daisy was getting ready for bed, and Bo made sure she was out of earshot, before he led Jesse, and Luke into the Living Room, and he said, “Guys, I am really worried about Daisy”, and Luke said, “I am too”, and Jesse admitted, “Yeah, I am too, I thought by now she will be feeling like herself”, and the others agreed, and nodded at the same thought, and then they heard a noise from Daisy’s Bedroom. They opened the door, and found Daisy on the floor naked, and she was embarrassed and trying to cover herself up with a towel, and Bo and Luke were going to help her up, and she growled, “Don’t touch me!” and everyone was taken back by her outburst, and Jesse Duke finally had it, and he said barking, “Daisy Mae Duke, You have the right to be independent, and refuse help, but you don’t have the right to be disrespectful to your cousins, they are only trying to help you, cause they love you, and I want you to apologize to them, Young Lady, Understand me?”, and Daisy said, “Yes, Sir”, the three younger Dukes never saw Jesse get that mad before, and she turned to her younger cousins, and said, “I am sorry, Guys”, and they nodded, and she ushered them out, so she can get ready for bed, and the men did the same. The next morning, everyone calmed down, and Luke made them a great Campout Breakfast, and decided to eat outside, and Jesse took a sip of his coffee, and said, “OK, Daisy, What is all the ruckus that is causing your sudden bad mood?” and she took a bite of eggs, and said with a sigh, “It’s dumb, Guys, you don’t want to hear it”, and Bo put a supportive hand on her hand, and said, “Darling, Nothing you ever said in the past or about to say now is dumb, you can talk to us”, and Luke said agreeing giving her an irresistible grin, “Yeah, Baby, talk to us”, and Daisy had tears in her eyes, and she nodded, and went into her story.

Against All Odds: One: The Duke Boys got to “The Boar’s Nest” in time, and they frantically searched for Daisy, and Bo called out, “Daisy!”, and Luke called out in a tone that he used when Bo and Daisy were kids and fooling around, “Daisy Duke, You come out this instant, or I will get Uncle Jesse, and he will tan your hide!”, and there was still nothing, and they continued their search, and they went behind the bar, and both were startled by the sight in front of them, Bo was emotional, and said, “Daisy”, and they checked for a pulse, and were relieved to find one, and Luke said to Bo in a commanding tone, “Bo, Go to the “General” and get the blankets we have there, we are gonna keep her warm, and take her over to Tri-County Hospital”, and he nodded and ran off to do the task. Luke got the C.B. fixed in no time, and he raised Jesse on it, and he said, “Lost Sheep One to Shepherd, You got your ears on? Come back”, and Jesse’s voice came in crisp on the other end, “Shepherd here, what’s going on, Luke, you should been home hours ago”, and Luke was on the verge of tears, filled in him on what happened to Daisy, and Jesse said on the end of the line, “I’ll meet you there, hold on”, and they hung up, and Luke went over to Bo, and to find out how Daisy is doing. “There is no change, Cousin”, Bo said emotionally, and Luke nodded, and they wrapped the blankets around Daisy, and hugged her between them to keep her warm, and alive, and Luke said as he composed himself, “Help me get her into the “General Lee”, and you take “Dixie” and let’s not waste anytime”, as they were doing this, Boss Hogg and Rosco came back, cause they thought they forgot something, and when they saw the condition that Daisy was in, Bo said, “It was those rapists/robbers who did this”, and Boss Hogg said, “Let us help you”, and they got Daisy into the “General” and they went straight to Tri-County Hospital. Jesse was thinking on the way to the hospital, and he thought to himself, “My girl, my sweet baby girl is hurt, I can’t live without her, so please, God, if you need to take someone, take me I am ready, she isn’t, Children aren’t suppose to outlive their parents”, and he was shedding tears, and he thought to himself with determination, “No one can kick a Duke down!” and then he calmed himself down, and focused on the road, and getting to the hospital in one piece. Luke and Bo came busting into the Waiting Room, and they carried Daisy in, followed by Boss, and Rosco, and Bo called out, “We need help here!” and Luke said frantically, “Please, Our Cousin is in trouble!” Doc Appleby came down in a rush with a small staff besides him, and he examined Daisy, and barked, “Get her in to Trauma One, and get set up, we are gonna operate on her!” and the staff took her down in a hurry, and he turned to the boys, Boss, and Rosco, and said, “We are gonna have to operate, I will speak when I am done”, and they nodded, and the boys sent Boss Hogg, and Rosco home, and they sat down in the Waiting Room, and put their arms around each other, and hugged each other. In the Operating Room, Daisy is on the table, and they did a repair job on her, and she was stable, and holding her own, and they were pumping as much of her blood type as they could, and then they sutured it up, and Doc Appleby was pleased with the progress, and he said to Daisy in her ear, “You did really good, Daisy, really good, now you are going to Recovery, and rest”, and he changed his clothes, and went to tell the Dukes what happened. Jesse came through the doors in a hurry, and he hugged his nephews, and comforted them the way he used to when they were little, and he said soothingly, “It will be ok, Boys, Daisy’s a Duke, and we don’t give up on each other”, and then the boys nodded, sobbed harder, and Jesse managed to calm them down, and all of sudden Doc Appleby came up to them with a pleased expression, and he had this to say to them. “Daisy had made it through the surgery, and she is recovery but the bad news is that she is still in critical condition, but I know her, and you, Dukes are strong, and they fight”, and Bo said, “You got that right, Doc”, and then he left to his rounds, and Luke let out a whoop of joy, and they headed for the Recovery Ward. Daisy is comfortable for the time being, and the Duke Men entered, and they were emotional at the sight of her, and cried for their loved one, and themselves. “Hey, Little Girl, please come back, we need you here, don’t leave us”, and he kissed her forehead, and Bo was emotional, and said, “We are friends, more than that, Brother and Sister, you are the best part of me, and I don’t want to lose you, so if you die, a part of me dies too, so please fight, and stay with us”, and he was sobbing openly, and Luke comforted him, and as they looked at Daisy, hoping that she will wake up, and Luke said, “My turn”, and he said to Daisy, “Pretty Lady, I would love to see those eyes of yours, and your smile, cause that smile gets us through the day, and if you recover, and listen to Doc Appleby, I will do the dishes, and the laundry for 3 months”, and that got a chuckle from Bo and Jesse, and Bo said, “She will hold you to it, Cousin”, and Jesse said, “He’s right”, and Luke said, “I don’t care, I rather do that, and have Daisy wake up and be well”, and Bo and Jesse nodded, and three men put their arms around each other’s waist, and hugged each other, watched Daisy sleep, and then they made themselves comfortable fell asleep near her.

Bo and Luke Duke, known as “The Duke Boys” were busy fixing a neighbor’s fence, and help raise their Barn, that was destroyed in a storm a couple nights ago, and once they were done, the neighbor thanked them, and paid them, and they got into their famous Stock Car, the “General Lee”, and made their way to go and pick up Daisy. It was a hot night, and Jesse Duke, the Family Patriarch was making some late supper for his niece and nephews, and he smiled at the thought of the 4 of them at the table, eating and talking like every family does, and he also wanted to make sure personally that they are ok, and that they would be all set to eat when they came in, he loves those kids as his own, and would sacrifice anything for them.
