Chapter 2 Here Comes The Law Jesse's kitchen early morning. Jesse stumbles into the kitchen in his long sleep shirt he was seen in. He puts on the coffee, and glances out the window. The only vehicle in sight is Daisy's Jeep he had brought home and his pickup he'd left with Coy who was the designated driver. He pours his first cup of coffee as the front door opens. BJ enters the kitchen with Bear on his heels, "Good morning Mr. Duke." "Good morning BJ, but call me Jesse. Coffees on help yourself. I'll get breakfast started shortly." "Thanks." BJ replies as he takes a cup off a hook on the wall and pours a cup of coffee. "Well, I only saw the pickup out front. How many am I cooking for this morning?" questions Jesse. "To be honest with you, your barn is kinda full. I think there are more people than animals. Looks more like a hotel than a barn." BJ laughs sipping his coffee. Jesse laughs with him. "It's not the first time. Things were getting pretty interesting when I left last night. Any more skeletons fall out of the closet?" "Well, there was me, Dixie, and Jill when you left right?" "Yeah, that's about right." replies Jesse. "There was one more I think after you left. If I have the details straight, Kathy, who was Cooter's girlfriend years ago did show up. Her Dad wouldn't let her see him and took her out of here only to later find out he had a granddaughter on the way. Cooter didn't know until 18 years later? Am I right?" BJ questions. "Yeah," Jesse sighs. "I'm afraid your right. That's been a long time ago. Cooter's daughter showed up when she was about 18 looking for the father she never knew. After years of her Grandfather trying to convince her Cooter was all-bad, those few days were a disaster for Cooter. Everything he tried blew up in his face. But in the end, things worked out and she saw the truth." "Wow." BJ says letting this information sink in. "Kathy never contacted Cooter about his daughter?" "Her father had money and power. Come to find out she was not allowed to tell Cooter. Her father threatened to have her daughter put up for adoption if she ever told." Jesse explains. "So she waited until her daughter turned 18 then told her. That's when she came looking for Cooter, but as far as I know Cooter hasn't seen Kathy since her father made her leave." "That's about what I gathered last night." BJ says pouring another cup of coffee as Luke enters the kitchen through the front door. "Morning," says Luke while getting his coffee. "We slept in the barn last night to keep from waking you." "I know why you all stayed in the barn," Jesse says over his coffee cup. "'Cause no one will ever say I run a 'broady house' here. Every one is well over 18 and what goes on out there is your all business." Luke and BJ look at each other and grin with a look of a cat that just got caught with family canary in its mouth. "Besides, from what BJ tells me there wouldn't have been room for all of you to have slept in here." Jesse finishes. "Your probably right there." Luke states. "Well, finish your coffee and go wake everyone else up. You fellows divide up the chores and send the girls into help with breakfast. We'll have ourselves a good old fashion country breakfast with all the trimmings." Jesse says getting up from the table to go get dressed. After doing the morning chores, the guys return to the house for a breakfast fit for a King. Uncle Jesse says grace, then all 15 family and friends dig in. (There is Jesse at the head of the picnic table outside, BJ and Daisy and Bear eating a banana, Luke and Dixie, Bo and Jill, Cooter and Kathy, Coy, Vance, Jeb, and their 3 dates who waitress at the Boars Nest). Everyone helps clean up. "Jesse do you mind if I use your phone? I'll put it on my card but I need to call Bear Enterprises in California and check in." BJ asks. "Sure thing help yourself." Jesse replies. As BJ heads for the phone Bo and Luke are getting ready to run Cooter, Kathy, Jill, the 3 waitresses back into town and pick up the General Lee at the Boars Nest. BJ calls to Cooter, " What time will you be able to do that once over on my truck?" Cooter replies, "We've got to go to the Boars Nest to pick up the wrecker, then, give me time to grab a shower and change. Say two hours or so." "Great, gives me time to get cleaned up and pick the rig up at the Boars Nest. I'll meet you at the garage." BJ dials the phone, after 2 rings, a female voice answers, "Bear Enterprises. Can I help you?" BJ replies, "Your at it early! It's what about 6 there?" Stacy replies, "That's why the boss pays me so good. Yeah, it’s just after 6 am. Where are you?" she asks cheerfully. "Well, I'm about an hour out of Atlanta in a little place called Hazzard. I stopped in to see some old friends. I plan on spending the day getting the rig serviced. I'll probably call you tomorrow. Keep your eyes open for a short run near here." "How short?" she asks. "Say a day, two at the most." BJ replies. "That is short, for you." she states. "Yeah, I thought I'd spend some time catching up with an old Marine buddy of mine. Thought I may even talk him into going with me if he's not going to be gone to long." BJ says. "OK, your the boss, I'll see what I can do." "Anything else I need to know?" BJ asks. "No everything is fine here, for a change." she laughs, "Hey, aren't you pretty close to Lobo or Cain?" she questions. BJ replies, "Well, yes, but I hope they have forgot all about me." "Oh, yeah!!!.... Have you lost your mind?" "No, but, I've been gone awhile. Try to keep me out of their counties but it you can't I'll just take it easy." BJ replies. "Figure they need a new fleet of patrol cars?" BJ laughs, "Yeah, they are probably way over due!" "OK, be careful, and watch yourself." she warns. BJ replies, "You worry to much. If you need me I'm at 555-555-1234. I'll be here or they'll know how to find me. Catch you later." "Bye." He hangs up the phone. BJ pulls his tractor up to the open garage doors. (He left the trailer across the street.) BJ gets down with Bear following as Daisy pulls up behind him in her Jeep. He walks over to the Jeep and kisses her, then says; "I'll see you back at the farm? This will probably take awhile. We are going out tonight?" "OK. You bet. Last night was just a preview. Tonight we're going show you how to have a good time Hazzard style!" "I can't wait. Be careful." he replies. "OK, see you later." BJ walks into the garage. Cooter is waiting. "OK, I guess we better get at it. Let's start with an oil change and grease job." Cooter replies, "You got it." Late afternoon. Jesse's farm. Daisy enters her room in a bathrobe and her hair in a towel. Setting at her dressing table in also in a bathrobe brushing her wet hair is Dixie. As Daisy closes the door, Dixie asks, "Do you have any idea the last time I started getting ready for a date so early like this?" "No." Daisy replies. "Well, I was probably setting right here." Dixie smiles. Daisy looks at her in disbelief. "What?" Dixie nods, "Since I left here I really haven't dated anyone seriously. Plus, after Luke, well....." she sighs, "I don't know, no one interested me." "So you’re saying?" Daisy questions. "That Luke is the ONLY man I've ever been with." "You mean after all these years? You've waited for Luke?" Daisy asks, amazed. Dixie thinks about how to word her feelings, "Not really. Well, not intentionally. It's just that.... well... I really haven't went out much. But, when I did.... well... they weren't right, or something was wrong....." "And they weren't Luke?" Daisy asks. Dixie concedes and sighs, "Right." "Does Luke know this?" Daisy asks. Dixie shakes her head, "No, I don't want to put pressure on him. If this doesn’t work then it doesn't work. It took me all this time to get up the nerve to even come home again. Our secret??" (In the background: you hear BJ's rig pull up and the General Lee following. Then the "dixie" horn announces they have arrived. Daisy smiles, "Our secret. We've got to hurry supper will be ready soon and it won't take them long to get ready!" Jesse is placing the last dish on the table as the guys (Bo, Luke, BJ, Coy, Vance, and Jeb) come into the kitchen from getting cleaned up for supper and a night out on the "town". They all start taking places at the table as Daisy (dressed in tight Blue jeans and a red low cut top and high heels) and Dixie (dressed in tight Black jeans with a white tub top with a black western shirt over it, unsnapped with boots) enter the kitchen. All conversation stops! "Looks like you all have plans for the evening?" Jesse questions. Luke coolly replies, "Nothing special just going to hear Jeb's band at the Boars Nest." Knowingly, Jesse replies, "Right...." As everyone finishes dinner, Jeb asks, "Uncle Jesse, if Coy, Vance and I stack the dishes may we be excused? We need to get going." "If you all stack the dishes, and the others help put up the let overs I'll do the dishes so you all can go. And I'll be along directly." "Yes, sir. And thanks!" Jeb replies, "We'll even cook breakfast in the morning!" "I'll believe that when I see it." Jesse replies. "Do you all want to take the pick up?" Everyone looks surprised. There are a few "No's" and a couple of "Why's" "Figured you may want it instead of having to go get the other vehicles in the morning." Jesse states then asks, "So who is driving home?" "It's my turn, Uncle Jesse, just in case." Vance replies. "OK, as long as you all have a plan." Jesse shrugs, "But I still say you'll be going to get vehicles in the morning!" At the Boars Nest on "stage" are Coy, Vance, and Jeb and the rest of the band. At a table close to the band are: Luke and Dixie, BJ and Daisy, Cooter and Kathy, and Bo and Jill. In the background Bear's at the pinball. At a table farther back are Jesse, and Mr. Davenport and a couple others. The waitress brings a second round of beers. Luke says, "Ok, give me your keys and I'll slide them to Vance in a minute." BJ hands over keys to Daisy's Jeep, Cooter keys to the wrecker, and Bo keys to the General Lee. When the band takes a break Luke hands Vance the keys as he is drinking a pop. Vance convinces BJ to sing something. During the next song BJ and Daisy are slow dancing when LD (Daisy's ex) walks in followed by three friends. Luke, standing at the bar, sees him and says, "Oh, Lord." and points them out to Bo. Bo and Luke start walking to meet LD. Dixie sees Luke trying to make his way through the crowd and says to Jill, "This..., is NOT...., going to be good!" LD approaches Daisy roughly grabbing her arm, "What the He__ are you doing dancing with someone?" he manages to yell as BJ grabs his throat. Daisy gasps, "LD?" as Luke punches LD knocking him out of BJ's grasps as Bo tackles him. The band stops as Jeb jumps one of the approaching friends. An all out knock down drag out ensues between Luke, BJ, Bo, Jeb, LD and his 3 friends. Chairs and tables are broken as they fall into them and as people scurry to get out of the way. Bear is 'going off' jumping up and down. Cooter, Coy, Vance and Jesse see things are under control and won't let anyone else jump in. Then, here comes the LAW! Rosco, Cletus, and Enos (on vacation from LAPD and filling in for a vacationing Hazzard deputy) enter the front door. Enos (not knowing what has started this, but knowing BJ and Daisy are seeing each other grabs BJ off LD who he doesn't recognize) Rosco grabs Luke, Cletus grabs Bo as LD and friends now break and run out the door. Hazzard Jail Rosco, Enos, and Cletus place Bo, Jeb, BJ, and Luke in the 2 cells. while Boss Hogg looks on. "Rosco, this is not right." Bo states. "What are you going to do about LD and friends?" Luke asks. "HUSH!! Just hush!" Demands Rosco. "My Boars Nest was almost destroyed and somebody is gonna pay!" Boss Hogg declares and they start up the steps. "Do you believe this!?" questions Jeb. "Yeah." states BJ. "Hazzard County justice. You've been gone to long cousin." States Luke. "So there are not going to go after that bunch?" BJ asks. "Why, they have us!" declares Bo. As Cletus is sliding in breakfast, Boss Hogg enters followed by Rosco. "Well, I trust you all are enjoying your stay?" Boss questions. "I understand you 3 (motioning to the Dukes) are here on vacation? And you drive a truck all over the place? Is that right?" BJ replies, "Yes, I do" Luke states, "You know we've all come in to help Jesse. We may be staying." Boss replies, "It don't look like your gonna be much help in here.......(to BJ)And I can't see you making much money from here?" "Just exactly what are we charged with?" BJ asks Rosco states, "Assault, Battery, and Destruction of Property." "How can you charge us with Assault and Battery? Who's testimony are you going to use since you didn't see fit to go after those other guys??" Luke asks. "Well, you know I have been thinking about just that." replies Boss smugly. "So, Rosco it looks like we're gonna have to drop those charges." "But, we still have the Destruction of property", giggles Rosco. "Now, Jesse is up there to try and bond you all out, which would mean not leaving the county until the Circuit Judge gets here and he's not due for about 3 weeks." Boss states letting this sink in. "I was out to what's left of the Boars Nest and it looks like I'm going to have to replace all the tables and most of the chairs which is going to run about $8000.00. Do you all have an extra $2000.00 a piece?" They all look at each other, knowing they are about to be had. Boss smiles, "I have a friend who's going to make me a good deal on some furnishings but they have to be picked up today." Rosco laughs, Boss continues, "I'm willing to drop all charges,...... pay for the tables and chairs,.....IF you all will load them; haul them, at your expense, here; and set them up before opening tonight." The guys look at each other. "Haul them from where?" BJ asks. "About fifty miles from here." "So we're off Scott free for 100 miles worth of fuel and a little labor???" Luke questions. "That's right." Boss states innocently. "I don't like it." Luke declares. "Not a bit." Bo replies. "What's the catch?" BJ asks. "It's too good to be." states Jeb "No catch, just can't open with out the tables and chairs. I can't afford to loose the money from being closed." says Boss. "Guys," Luke motions for them and they move to the back of the cells. "We really don't have much of a choice here." "I know, but I still don't like it" says Bo. "I don't like it at all either Bo, but I for one can't let that rig set for 3 weeks." BJ adds. "We're going to have to keep our eyes open." Luke warns. "OK, Boss you got a deal." Luke states. "Rosco." says Boss motioning to the cell door. He opens the cell doors. The guys come out. Boss hands BJ a piece of paper. Here's where you go and who you need to see: The Orly Club 13 East Main Street Orly Elroy P. Lobe BJ takes one look at the paper and asks. "Guess it’s to late to reconsider?" Bo, Luke and Jeb look at him like he's gone crazy. Boss says, "I'm afraid so." Rosco is giggling. Luke states, "Let's get out of here." As they head upstairs. Chapter 3 coming soon!

BJ Goes to Hazzard Setting Hazzard County, USA which for our purposes is surrounded by Orly County (Lobo's territory), Bishop County (Cain's territory), and Chickasaw County (Sheriff Little of Dukes). There are 3 main roads out of Hazzard one through each county. Therefore, BJ would have to deal with one of the 3 to get in or out of Hazzard and Roscoe will have backup if he chases them to the county line in any direction.

He turns to Bear and says, "Well, Boy, we just dropped our load and were only about 100 miles from Hazzard. Think we should take a chance on a trip down memory lane???" Bear happily jumps up and down in his seat. "Your more sure about it than I am. Well, here goes nothing. This is our exit." He takes the Chickasaw County exit and manages to get through without any problems. (night road scenes and music) Show the rig crossing the Hazzard County line. Boars' Nest outside BJ's rig pulls around to the back of the building out of the way and parks. "Here we are. I want you to behave yourself and stay out of the Beer". Bear smiles and sticks out his tongue! BJ opens the door and gets out. Bear close behind. They walk across the parking lot. (You can hear country music and laughter as they approach the door.) BJ nervously takes a deep breath and lets it out before entering. (Inside a band is playing. In the band are the younger Duke cousins, Coy, Vance and Jeb) He steps through the door and stops, letting his eyes adjust. Scanning the room he sees a familiar face (Luke Duke). The rugged handsome man is a little older, with a dark tan, his brown hair now has a little gray in it, but his blue eyes still hold a sparkle of mischief. He approaches the table and asked, "Can I buy an old Marine a Beer?" Luke turns to see BJ smugly grinning at him. BJ is also a little older, with his brown hair shorter than the last time Luke saw BJ. "BJ McKay!!!" Luke stands extends his hand. As the two shake hands there is a quick buddy-buddy, back slapping kind of embrace between them. "It must have been 10 years!" BJ says, "You mean more like 15." "Set down and let me buy you a Beer. After all, I wouldn't be here today if it wasn't for you!" Luke states. "Look, we evened up a long time ago." BJ says as he is still scanning the room as if looking for someone else. "BJ I don't know if you know everyone here." Luke pauses and looks to his left. "You remember my cousin Bo." I gorgeous blonde haired man slightly younger than BJ and Luke with a mustache extends his hand. They shake. "It's been awhile." BJ agrees. Setting by Bo is a cleaned up slightly aged Cooter. "Do you remember Cooter Davenport?" Luke asked. "Of course. Are you still the best mechanic east of the Mississippi?" asked BJ Cooter laughs, "Well, I don't know about all that but I try." They all laugh. Luke says, "I've got some other cousins around here somewhere. I'll have to introduce you later." BJ is still noticeably scanning the room. "Well, BJ are you gonna just set there or are you gonna ask?" Luke asked. A little startled, "Uh, that obvious?" pause, sigh. "Ok, is she here?" "Yeah, in the back. Do you want me to get her?" offers Luke. "No....Is she married or seeing anyone? The last thing I want to do is cause problems." says BJ. "No, but I gotta tell you. Awhile back, she got married to a truck driver. Imagine that!" Luke starts. "Shortly after, his runs got longer and longer, he had promised to run short runs. Any way one thing lead to another and she found out he was cheating. She was devastated; the marriage was over but not the hurt. So go a little easy. OK?" "Ok, but I don't even know if she'll talk to me." Through the door to the back of the bar enters a tall slender woman slightly younger than Luke and BJ with long brown curly hair. She is busy talking to a waitress friend of hers. They walk to the bar and Daisy has her back to the table where BJ is setting. "Bear stay here a minute. Luke keep him outta the beer." BJ says as he gets up from the table and heads for the bar. He approaches Daisy and says over her shoulder, "Can't a guy get any service around here?" Daisy turns. There is a look of surprise. She smiles, and squills, "BJ" as she hugs the stuffings out of him. He hugs her back lifting her off the floor. They share a long, hungry, passionate kiss. When they come up for air, BJ asked her to dance. They head to the dance floor as Conway Twitty's "I'd love to lay you down" comes on. As they dance Daisy asks, "So what brings you back to town after all these years? Are you just passing through?" BJ whispers "Depends. I've missed you." "I've missed you too. But, ......." "No, buts. I'm here.... If you want me to, I'll haul some short runs, and be around for a while and we'll see. If you don't want me too I can....." She places a finger over BJ's mouth to stop his sentence. "I'd like you to be around. It's just that..." Daisy whispers with tears in her eyes. "that you've been hurt." BJ finishes her sentence. "Yes, and I'm afraid..." The song ends. They stay on the floor and Conway Twitty's "Slow Hand" begins "Daisy, Luke told me about your marriage. I understand that you've been hurt. And I understand that he was a trucker. But, I'm not him." Daisy smiles, "I know." "Give me a chance?" "OK, but you haul where and when you want. I don't want you to change because of me. If you do, it won't work." "Ok, you win. But, I may want to haul close by." Daisy replies with a kiss. Back at the table: Daisy's waitress friend says, "Looks like there's some history out there." Bo replies, "Yeah, they go way back. But BJ hasn't been around in years." Waitress, "Why?" "I think that's what Daisy is trying to find out." Says Luke. Daisy and BJ approach the table as three other guys also approach. One younger than Daisy with very dark hair and beautiful blue eyes, the other two have sandy blonde hair, one is a little older than the other, all three look like walking trouble. As BJ and Daisy set down, Luke tells BJ, " These three trouble makers are our other cousins. This is Vance, and that's Coy, then there's Jeb. Guys this is and old friend of mine, BJ McKay." Jeb says, "Looks like you’re an old friend of Daisy's too??" and smiles. BJ says, "These guys don't miss a thing do they?" Everyone laughs, as Daisy seems a little embarrassed. BJ spots Uncle Jesse and a few friends at another table. He excuses himself and goes to Jesse's table. "Mr. Duke may I set down." asked BJ. "Of course, BJ, how have you been?" "I've been fine. How have you been?" "Ok, just trying to keep that bunch out of trouble." They both laugh. "So what's on your mind?" "I wanted to ask your permission to see Daisy." "What does Daisy think about it?" "Well, she said she was willing to give me a chance." "That's a start. She hasn't seen anyone in awhile..." "Luke told me. " "So, what are your intentions?" "Well, have been thinking a lot about Daisy and I hoped to come back and see if she was interested in having me around for awhile. It's been years since we've seen each other and I know we've both changed, but changes could be good. I know when I was here before I was just back from Vietnam and the last thing I wanted was any ties to anything or anybody. I wasn't sure what I wanted or who I was and she was so much younger than me. I didn't want to start anything that would hurt her. Then, there was the heat. I couldn't move my rig without getting stopped." "So do you think anything has changed now?" "I hope so. I'm older and so is Daisy. As for the law, well, I've been out West and out of here for quite awhile. I hoping they have forgot all about me." "Sorta wishful thinking, don't you think? After all the trouble you caused them?" BJ grins, "Not to mention the trouble they caused me." "Well, you got a point there. Are you still driving?" "Yes." "Same truck?" "Yes," "They're gonna take one look at that truck. And it's gonna be on!" "Well, let's hope not. Besides I hope not to give them a reason to stop me." "Since when do they need a reason." "True." BJ sighs. " So, do you trust me with your niece?" "I trusted you enough years ago to let her go to Milwaukee and back with you didn't I?" BJ laughs, "So I take that as a yes." "Yes, and good luck. Take it slow." "Thanks, I need it. And I will." They shake hands and BJ returns to the other table. BJ returns to the table. He and Daisy head for the dance floor. Through the front enters a brunette. She is tall, medium built, with shoulder length hair. The only person at the table who notices is Cooter. She sees him notice her and shakes her head no. (For him to be quiet). She notices Luke is now standing at the bar talking to the waitress, "BJ and I were in Vietnam together and...." She walks up behind him and whispers as her voice threatens to crack, "Luke." He stops in mid sentence and turns to her. A look of surprise, joy, and disbelief crosses Luke’s face. She says as tears fill he eyes, "A ghost from the past." Visibly shaken, tears comes to Luke’s eyes also, "Dixie..... I thought...." he tries to start as he reaches out for her and they begin to kiss a long hungry kiss. After which Luke says, "We've got to talk." And pulls her toward the door. Outside on the tailgail of Jesse's pick up. "Were you surprised?" Dixie asked. "Surprised is NOT the word for it!! You swore when you left you'd never come back here. I always hoped you change mind. But, I was beginning to believe I'd never see you again." "After all the hurt my father put both of us through....." she chokes up and looks away. "Hey, that's in the past. Your here now." he says kissing her. " Does he know you’re in?" "No. No one knew until I walked in just now." Luke nods, "Are you ready to go in?" "I don't know..." she sighs, "It took a lot to get me in that door the first time." "I know.... I'm here. Head up, shoulders back, let's go have a good time. Believe me, no one is going to start anything." She smiles, " That's kinda what I'm afraid of!" They both laugh and head back inside. Inside Luke see Dixie's father at Jesse's table. "Dixie, I'm going over there a minute. Going or staying?" She sighs, "Going I guess. " "Good, girl." They walk up to the table and Luke says, "Mr. Davenport, It took Dixie years to come back to Hazzard. She's not 15 any more. We plan on seeing each other. Your permission would be nice, but is no longer needed." "So you think your going to see my daughter if I disapprove." "No, he knows he is." States Dixie. "Look, Mr. Davenport, there has been way to many hard feelings and way too much heartache over this. Besides, we may just choose on our own we are no longer compatible." "Well, since you've both made it clear my opinion doesn't matter. Why are you asking my permission?" Luke says, "I'm sure it would make things easier, especially for your daughter, but it's not needed." "I see. Since there is not a lot I can do about it anyway. I suppose you can have my permission." They return to the table. Luke tells Dixie, "Dixie I'd like you to meet an old buddy of mine. This is BJ McKay and his friend Bear. You remember Daisy, Bo, Coy, and Vance, right?" "Nice to meet you BJ, and how could I forget these guys?" she hugs them. "BJ this is Dixie Davenport, Cooter's little sister." Luke states. BJ nods as he and Daisy get up and head off to dance again. "Cooter, we've been the best of friends for years, but at one time you were fighting mad because we were seeing each other. Are we going to have a problem?" Luke asked. "No, as long as that's what she wants. Just don't hurt her." Cooter warns. "Hurting her was not my intention last time." Luke states matter of factly. "Care to dance?" they head on to the dance floor. Luke looks up to see a tall slender blonde enter the door. "Holy Hanna!!!" he exclaims. "What, is it Luke." asked Dixie. "Do you remember Jill?? That use to have the crush on Bo?" "Yeah." "Well she just walked in the door. She's been back a few years ago and turned him upside down." Luke states. "Then this should be good." she laughs. They watch as she spots Bo by the band. She walks up as Bo turns around. "Care to dance she asks?" "Jill what are you doing here?" Bo exclaims. "The orphanage needed a hand, so I took vacation." "Great!" they head onto the dance floor. They dance and talk. Vance talks Luke and Dixie into singing something like Kathy Matea's "Where have you been?" and/or Collin Ray's "Love Me" They end up closes the bar down. Chapter 2 coming soon!
