Bo said: "I don't care either, Luke and I have done weirding things..." "Eh...let's talk about that later", Luke said.
A few minutes later Doreen and the Versteeg brothers were sitting at a table in the Burger King.

"Look at these people staring at us," Doreen whispered to Luke and Bo. "We must look really out of place dressed in formal attire. Ah well. A girl's gotta eat and I'm craving a beef burger."
She got up from her seat. "I'll order. What do you guys want?"

"I'd like a cheese burger, french fries and a strawberry milkshake", Luke said. "What about you, Bo?" "Chicken Chili Burger, fries and a mikshake, doesn't matter which one."
"Doreen, what would you like?"

"I like any type of food as long as it's good!" she said, smiling. "Is that your final order? If yes, I'm going to go order now."
As she said that, she walked off towards the counter to place her order.

Bo layed back and said to Luke: "Lucas. She is great. Really, she is so your type." "I guess so. I'm glad you agree. Hey can I ask you something? When Doreen asked you how things are in the Versteeg family, you acted kind of weird. Is something wrong with mom and dad." "No, it's... it's not that." "But there is something. Tell me, please." "Look, mom and dad are fine, okay, they are not the problem. I really don't want to get into this right now, I'll tell you later." "But..", Luke asked. "I'm gonna help Doreen with all the orders."
Bo walked towards Doreen who was in line for the counter. It was a pretty long line. He didn't mind, cause he wanted to have a talk with her. "Hey Doreen. So, how do you think things are going so far?"

"With your brother? Oh, things are going great," said Doreen, smiling. "You are so lucky to have him as a brother."
She looked at Bo's face. "What's the matter? You look a little bit troubled. Mind telling me?"

Bo was thinking. He didn't know how to tell it to Luke, but he really should know first. Before he knew it, he began talking about it to Doreen:
"Did Lucas ever tell you about our sister Simone?" Doreen answered that he didn't. "Weird, don't you think? It's kind of a sensitive matter to him. Like 7 or 8 years ago, she got a wrong boyfriend, got into drugs and broke with the family. We tried to find her, but it was like she was suddenly gone. Lucas was here when this all happened, but he came back to search for her. He was most caught up in the whole thing, and eventually gave up and came back here. A few months ago, we finally got a call. Not from her, but from a policeman. She's in jail. She's in for murder."

Doreen looked taken aback. "What? I'm so sorry to hear that! Is she alright? Does she have a good lawyer to back her up? Do your parents know?"
She shook her head. "Sorry I'm acting like a busy-body but shouldn't Luke know about this?"

Bo sighed. "Yes, he should know. I wanted to tell him about it this week, but we mostly talked about his failed marriage, and I didn't feel like he could deal with this. He was also very excited about this date and all. But I'll tell him first thing after the date is over. And to answer your questions, she is not very allright. She's in for murdering a client, but she claims with all her heart that she didn't do it."
"Doreen...when I tell Lucas..He probably wants to get to Holland for a while and figure out the truth...Which is not very confinient for you." Doreen kind of stared away. "You really like him, don't you?"

Doreen smiled at him. "Yes, I guess you can say that." She glanced at Luke from over Bo's shoulder and sighed. "But tonight, let us just put this at the back of our minds and enjoy the dinner, ok?"

Bo smiled. "Yes, of course. I'd appreciate it if, once I told him, you won't tell Lucas that I already told you. But you're right, let's not continue about this. After all, this is you and Luke's night." Bo and Doreen finally were at the desk to order.
*Maybe nice to know, I called Luke's brother Bo, because the brothers in The Dukes of Hazzard are called Luke and Bo.*

After ordering their food and paying for it (with Bo insisting that he pays), they made their way back to the table.
"Alright, food's here," said Doreen, passing the foor around. They ate in silence for a few minutes. She kept looking at Luke and was playing what Bo said to her in her head over and over again. But she pushed that thought away from her head. She was determined to have a good time, no matter what.
"So, where do you feel like going after this?" she asked them.

Luke said thanks for the food. "God, I'm starving." He took a bite. "Nothing beats a good hamburger." Doreen asked her about what they could do after this dinner. Luke joked: "I don't know, let's see where it goes.", with a wink.

"Ah... wanna go for a ride around town? Show Bo around NY since it's his last night here? That is; if he wants to," said Doreen.

"I'd love to!", Bo answered. "Good idea", Luke said. "How are your burgers tasting?"
