Plot Summary
Hazzard County meets its politest bandit when a masked man robs the County Commissioner in his courthouse office. The fella makes his getaway in the passing General Lee, because the Sheriff has towed his vehicle to the Impound Yard. The boys drive the robber out of town and then he orders the boys out of their car and tells them they will get the General back unharmed and gassed up since it's the least he can do. Bo gets him to agree to a car wash too.
While the boys are making yet another escape from Rosco (Boss assumed that the masked robber was Bo Duke, seeing as he only saw Luke at the wheel of the General as it passed), Daisy meets a fella at the Boar's Nest who gives her a down-on-his-luck story. She agrees not only to let him stay the night in the barn, but also to help him get his car back.
Bo and Luke make it to still site #2 (the one closest to the Boar's Nest) to talk to their uncle, only be captured by the Sheriff, Enos and their employer, Boss Hogg, who says it was the boys who robbed him. While the boys are taken to jail, Jesse heads back to the farm with the truck where he meets Daisy and this fella, who says his name is Neil Bishop and he is a chicken rancher from Clarion County. At Daisy's urging, however, Jesse heads to town with her car to try to figure how to help the boys out of jail.
Daisy, in the meantime, picks up on Neil's odd behavior (his itching to unload Jesse's pick up truck...which was where he stashed the money when he arrived at the Boar's Nest). She pulls the distributor cap from his car, and when he tries to leave the farm, she holds a shotgun to him. The tables turn when Jesse comes back to the farm.
