Plot Overview

The episode sees Bo and Luke get mixed up in a small-time counterfeiting operation run by their friend, "Granny Annie" Coggins, with things becoming more serious when Boss Hogg has Granny Annie arrested and seizes the plates ... only for Boss to then sell them to a big-time counterfeiter, the short-tempered "Big" Jim Downey. As Boss is closing a $25,000 deal for the plates with Downey, the Duke boys escape the Hazzard County Jail and steal the plates back, planning to dispose of them in Hazzard Lake, only for unintended consequences to result when Downey, believing Boss to have swindled him, has him kidnapped and plans a brutal death for him.

Rosco, who is at the Boar's Nest when Downey and his bodyguard comes for Boss, is knocked down and restrained to a chair as Boss is taken away. Scared for Boss' safety, Rosco ends up calling Bo and Luke – when Enos is unavailable – and calling upon them to rescue Boss. When the Duke boys at first refuse, Rosco makes an emotional plea to set aside their feud and stop a potentially horrific murder from taking place, and he says that if Boss is killed he'll hold them responsible forever. Bo and Luke agree, and they ultimately rescue Boss and have Downey arrested for federal counterfeiting charges.
