List of The Dukes of Hazzard Episodes - Season 4 (1981-1982) - 26 Episodes

Daisy falls in love with Boss' handsome, rich nephew, Jamie Lee Hogg (Guest Star Jonathan Frakes), who has come down to purchase his uncle's grits mill. The Romeo and Juliet-type romance progresses quickly, and it isn't long before Jamie Lee and Daisy are headed to the altar. But Bo and Luke, overprotective as they are, sense something is not right with Jamie Lee, and they confirm their suspicions when they reveal him as a counterfeiter.

Boss Hogg's latest sure-fire way to get Bo and Luke arrested is to hire two actors to rob Hazzard Bank. How? By having them wear wigs, masks and clothing resembling the Duke cousins, and then drive away in a fake General Lee. Bo and Luke find themselves chasing the criminals while convincing the community they would never commit armed robbery.

• Hazzard Speed Trap Victim: Donna Fargo

Bo and Luke find a bag of diamonds and take them to the farm for safekeeping until they can contact the authorities, unaware that the diamonds are stolen and everyone is after them. First, one of the thieves comes to the farm, posing as a reporter so he can get at the loot. Later, Boss learns there is a reward for the diamonds and hires an actor to portray an FBI agent who has a warrant for the valuable booty.

"Guest Star": A Bugs Bunny doll is featured very prominently in this episode, which happens to be Warner Bros' most famous cartoon character.

Bo and Luke outfox Rosco once again, leading to him crashing his squad car. Rosco emerges uninjured ... but wanting revenge, decides he was badly hurt. So badly, he files a lawsuit against the Duke family for $50,000. The Dukes come up with a way to expose Rosco's fake injuries before a judge rules in the sheriff's favor.

A pretty lady named Mindy Lou overhears Boss and Rosco scheming to steal motorcycles, for resale in the upcoming Tri-County Motorcross. Mindy Lou shares her knowledge with the Dukes, who try to foil Boss' scheme.

• Hazzard Speed Trap Victim: Johnny Paycheck
• Note: This episode was produced for the third season, but not broadcast until the fourth season.

Boss fires longtime Hazzard County employee Clarence Stovall one day short of his being eligible for his pension. Instead of filing a wrongful termination suit (to expose Boss' unwillingness to pay Stovall his pension), Stovall steals $30,000 from the vault of Hazzard Bank, part of the sum he is owed. Uncle Jesse tries to set Clarence straight while Bo and Luke attempt to return the money without being caught, and before the theft is detected.

It's Sadie Hogg Day in Hazzard County, the day when women run the county offices. Daisy's role is being the county treasurer. This works out well for Boss, since he's been embezzeling county funds and knows that a state investigator is coming to inspect the county ledger. Boss uses this knowledge to make sure that Daisy will be charged with the theft of county funds.

Rosco's uncle Hosiah passes away, and has supposedly left a $10 million fortune to the Hazzard County sheriff. He buys gaudy rhinestone suits and a new fancy car (a Rolls Royce sedan). Then, power hungry and frustrated by his continued inability to catch Bo and Luke, Rosco hires a professional bounty hunter named Jason Steele to track down Bo and Luke and do whatever it takes to bring them to justice. As the Duke boys slip out of Steele's grasp every time, Rosco becomes verbally abusive to Boss and swindles him out of everything. Meanwhile, Uncle Jesse learns that Steele has been in trouble with the law and tracks him down, but seriously injures himself when he slips down a hill. Later on, Steele finally tricks Bo and Luke into driving a stolen Dodge Charger painted exactly like the General Lee and has them arrested. Just then, Rosco's attorney returns to town to correct a big mistake - Rosco has only inherited $10, which leaves him well short of the $100,000 fee he promised Steele. Steele isn't interested in excuses and decides to kill Rosco, leaving Bo and Luke to come after him and defeat the phony bounty hunter.

• Note: This episode was originally seen on CBS as a two-hour episode. In syndication, it is shown as a two-part episode.

A beautiful fur thief tries to charm Cooter while her accomplice tries to break into Boss' storeroom by damaging Cooter's Garage. This is part of a payback plan when Boss shortchanges the thieves on the stolen minks.

A hypnotist tricks Luke into thinking that the General Lee is no longer competitive and should be retired ... permanently.

Cletus initiates a traffic stop with the Dukes. To get their way out of a phony traffic charge, Daisy tells Cletus she loves him, and then kisses him on the cheek. A lovestruck Cletus does everything and anything to smother Daisy with affection. Boss eventually fires Cletus after he bungles another arrest, prompting Cletus to side with the Dukes when they are jailed on a phony bad check writing charge. To make sure Boss' scheme goes according to plan, he hires Chickasaw County Sheriff Little to guard a jailed Bo and Luke until they can go before a parole officer, whom Boss is trying to impress. Daisy eventually tells Cletus she's not in love with him (Cletus takes it well and begins dating another woman), and Bo and Luke get some unexpected help from Flash, who eats Boss' forged check.

Hughie Hogg returns to Hazzard County, this time convincing his Uncle Boss to use his power of eminent domain to raze Cooter's Garage and build shoddy condominiums at an inflated price.

Hazzard Speed Trap Victim: Buck Owens

Boss is arrested for robbing his own bank. Out of pity, and to repay a debt among old friends, Uncle Jesse puts up the farm's mortgage to bail Boss out of jail. But the Dukes later find out that Boss never did rob the bank, and that it was part of an elaborate scheme to swindle the Dukes off the farm.

• Note: This episode was produced for the third season, but not broadcast until the fourth season.

Boss confers with recording pirates to record Mickey Gilley's upcoming concert at Hazzard Square, then sell the illegal albums for profit. When an FBI agent comes to arrest Boss' accomplices, they steal the General Lee and hide out at the Duke farm, thereby implicating Bo and Luke. Gilley knows that the Dukes are innocent, and they work together to foil Boss' latest scheme.

Boss wants Uncle Jesse's old moonshine recipe and will go to any length to get it. When Jesse refuses, Boss frames Bo and Luke for stealing from the Hazzard County Orphanage fund. With his nephews in jail, Jesse is given a choice: turn over the recipe, or have Bo and Luke formally charged with felony theft.

Boss sues Bo and Luke for "destroying county property" when the cousins damage Rosco's phony radar gun (actually, a hair dryer made up as the police patrol tool). Meanwhile, Uncle Jesse's old cohort is released from prison and wants to get revenge on Boss for illegally seizing his land.

Boss plans to have Hazzard County Postmaster Emma Tisdale arrested for mail fraud, in connection with his scheme to sell non-existent properties. When a postal inspector comes to town, Miz Tisdale hides out at the Duke farm while they investigate.

A state investigator checks out claims that Boss Hogg is operating an illegal casino in Hazzard County. Boss finds out about the investigation and shifts the blame toward the Duke family. Just as he's about to celebrate his success, he accidentally sits on a syringe filled with truth serum. Boss immediately reveals everything connected to the casino, which angers his criminal associates and leaves Bo and Luke once again riding to their adversary's rescue.

Two crooks get a hold of Rosco's diary, which details all the illegal schemes Boss has carried out through the years. The bad guys, ex-partners of Boss, demand a huge ransom or else they tip off the authorities.

A shapely, cajoling, conniving blonde named Linda Mae Barnes is hired as Boss Hogg's new deputy after she easily arrests Bo and Luke on various traffic charges. Boss and Rosco are too turned on by Linda Mae to notice that she accepted the job only as part of a plot to free her boyfriend, who faces trial on murder and robbery charges and is scheduled to stay overnight at the Hazzard County Jail. This leaves Bo and Luke to investigate Linda Mae's background and stop her before she can help her boyfriend escape custody.

Daisy is offered a spot on the NASCAR circuit for old friend Molly Hargrove. But there's much more that Molly fails to tell Daisy about the job.

The enemy factions – the Duke family on the one side, Boss and Rosco on the other – are forced to work together to defeat a band of armed robbers who hold them all hostage at the Boar's Nest. They want to ensure that all law enforcement officers and the Dukes are unable to thwart their plan to evacuate Hazzard under false pretenses, then rob an armored truck when it arrives at Hazzard Bank.

• Note: M. C. Gainey, who appears in this episode, would take the role of Rosco in the 2005 movie.

Hatchapee County Boss "Big" Jim Mathers pays Boss $10,000 to ensure that Melanie Dubois wins the title of Miss Tri-Counties, which Daisy has also entered. Boss does everything he can to rig the racing and beauty contests, but when Daisy wins them both, a pair of criminals kidnap Daisy to make sure she does not show up for the final contest, the swimsuit competition.

Fed up with unequal treatment from her husband, Lulu rallies the women of Hazzard County (who have been similarly mistreated) and forms the Hazzard County Equal Rights Society. She demands to take over half of her husband's business interests, including his used car lot. However, she and Daisy find themselves in hot water when they sell one of the used cars to Sheriff Little, unaware that Boss has stashed stolen credit cards inside the door panel.

When Rosco and Cletus become fed up with Boss' refusal to give them a much-needed (but deserved?) pay raise, they decide to go on strike. Boss retaliates by naming an old enemy – Uncle Jesse – as Hazzard County's top lawman. But there's a catch: Boss has hired two associates to steal electronic items, then pin the blame on Bo and Luke. But Jesse sees right through the scheme, and asks his nephews to capture the real crooks.

For the second time in a matter of weeks, friends and enemies are forced to band together to defeat a common threat. This time, a car carrying two hardened criminals is involved in an accident. The robbers escape uninjured and take refuge at the Duke farm, where Uncle Jesse is preparing to drive into town to make his mortgage payment. The Dukes are held at gunpoint in the farmhouse, their car keys confiscated and all communication devices disabled. When Jesse fails to show, Boss and Rosco – rather than get suspicious – gleefully drive to the Duke farm to foreclose, only to be taken hostage as well. Everyone is forced to improvise and cooperate when trying to get the attention of Cooter and Cletus, the only two people available to rescue them.
