Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Future Falcon Crest costar Simon MacCorkindale appears in this episode as Gaylord Duke, London-born cousin of Hazzard County's Luke and Bo Duke (Tom Wopat, John Schneider). Arriving in America to claim some land he has inherited, Gaylord finds himself opposed by Boss Hogg (Sorrell Booke), who intends to auction off the land in order to collect back taxes. Unexpected complications ensue when Daisy (Catherine Bach) falls in love with the dashing Gaylord. Ernie W. Brown appears in this episode as temporary mechanic L.B. Davenport, cousin of the still-absent Cooter (series regular Ben Jones was boycotting the show, refusing to shave his beard as ordered by the producers).
