During his daily pursuit of the General Lee, another car runs Rosco's patrol cruiser off the road and into a lake. Rosco climbs out, wet but unhurt, but the car's occupants kidnap him, the first step in a plan to rob Hazzard Bank. Their scheme: Having a third associate of the robbers - who exactly resembles Rosco - pose as the Hazzard County sheriff until an expected armored car shipment to Hazzard Bank arrives, which they plot to hijack.
