The boys and Jesse watched the skunk go, then shook their heads.

"Your revenge will have to wait." Jesse said. "We need to find Bo."

Cooter nodded, agreeing with him. Though, he stood by Luke snickering still at the girls.

Lori grumbled at all three of them and climbed down to the lowest branch, Taking Daisy by the arms she lowered her down so she wouldn't have to jump and hurt herself. Lori, on the other hand, stood up on the branch and leaped down right on top of cooter. Smirking she got up and dusted herself off.

"I ain't goin back in those danged woods Uncle Jesse...not to get chased by another riled momma skunk again, nu uh no sir, no way..."

she shook her head stubbornly.

"Lori, we need to find Bo." Jesse said firmly.

Lori sighed a little, putting her hands on her hips. Walking over to the driveway she picked up huge stones and put them in her pockets, making them bulge out as she walked back.

"I shall not go unprepared this time..."

She spoke motioning to Daisy with her hand as she walked off towards the woods once more.

"C'mon Dais...let's go see what other critters we can rile.."

Cooter glared at Lori, as Daisy hung her head following.

"Loren!"

He scolded to his youngest cousin. Lori looked over her shoulder at him, and rolled her eyes.

"I's kiddin' Cooter jeash!"

Cooter shook his head, taking his cap off for a second to scratch it.

"Sometimes I wonder why I try..."

He sighed heavily, walking back towards the woods, himself.

Luke followed after him, Jesse following Luke. Halfway in, Jesse split up from the boys to resume searching.

As the hot Hazzard county sun was over head, Lori wiped the sweat from her brows, her jacket wrapped around her waist securely as she headed out of the woods with Daisy.

"He ain't here..."

Lori whispered to herself, looking down. Shoving her hands in the backs of her jean pockets, Lori waited on Daisy to get two steps in behind her so she could lead the two of them out.

Cooter sighed as he too was making his way out of the woods, taking his cap off wiping his forehead.

"No use in searchin no more Luke...he ain't there..."

Luke hated to admit it, but Cooter was right. A short time later, Jesse walked out, looking more worried.

Lori sighed as her and Daisy finally came out of the bushes, looking like a walking mess. An arm around Daisy's shoulder comfortingly Lori walked over to Luke, Cooter, and Jesse.

"No Luck with us either fellas..."

She admitted sadly. Cooter sighed a little and had an arm around Luke's shoulders as well, giving him a gentle reassuring squeeze.

Jesse nodded some. "I'm calling Rosco." He said, heading inside.

The kids all trudged their tired feet to the porch and fell down on top of each other, tired. Lori yawned a little as she looked at Luke and Daisy a hand on either one of their shoulders.

"M' sorry fellas..."

She said sadly. Daisy looked at her and nodded, tears streaking her face. She hugged up to Luke and cried.

Luke hugged her back, fighting his own tears. Jesse watched the kids sadly.

At the sheriff's office in town, Rosco was as busy as ever filing papers making little incoherent sounds as he went along. Hearing the phone ringing Rosco let out a frustrating sigh, picking the phone reciever up.

"Hazzard County Sheriff's Department, this is Sheriff Roscooooo P. Coltrane speaking."

"Rosco, this is Jesse Duke...I need to file a missing person's report..." Jesse said, the worry and concern clear in his voice.

Rosco sighed again, running a hand down his face. Diggin through papers and files, Rosco pulled out a form and grabbed a pen.

"Awwwwright Jesse....who is it?"

"My little nephew...Bo." Jesse replied.

Silence fell upon the sheriff's department as Rosco swallowed the lump in his throat that had since gathered when Jesse sounded worried.

"I...um...I'm terribly sorry Jesse...I'll get one out A.S.A.P.."

"Thank you Rosco...you don't know how thankful I am." Jesse said.

Rosco nodded slowly, sighing sadly as he hung up the phone. He went about filling out the papers so he could broadcast them and send them to Atlanta.

Hanging up the phone, Jesse went to get the kids ready for dinner, knowing there wasn't anything else they could do at the moment.

Cooter looked at Lori who was piled up near Daisy and Luke almost asleep from the hot and humid day. Tapping her shoulder a little he yawned himself and curled up on the porch drowsily.

"Wanna just stay here and eat dinner? I'm sure daddy wouldn't mind..."

Lori looked at him and only nodded, letting her head flop down on the wooden floor.

"Kids, go get washed up for dinner." Jesse said, stepping out onto the porch.

Lori and Cooter both looked up from where they laid tiredly on the porch. Making small grunting noises in an attempt to get up Lori and Cooter both trudged off the porch and headed straight to the water trough, dunking themselves in the water.

Daisy, getting curious when she heard water splashing, Looked up from where she laid curled up by Luke, raised an eyebrow when she saw Cooter and Lori walk back soaking wet.

Jesse watched the two, an eyebrow raised. "What in tarnation are you two doing?"

Lori looked at Cooter then to Uncle Jesse.

"Washing off.."

"Well, get inside. After dinner, you two can sleep here tonight. I'll call your dad to let him know, Cooter." Jesse said.
