Hooterville Crime Wave

Convicts Barney Dawson and Max James have escaped from the state penitentiary. Meanwhile, Uncle Joe wrote a letter to the Postmaster General accusing Sam of running a lax and inefficient post office. Joe believes that if Sam posted photos of some criminals, he could capture them for the reward money. Sam makes fun of Joe being a member of the CIA. Sgt. Horton, from the state police, comes by and tells them about Barney and Max being in the area. Joe asks if there's any reward for them and he is told no. Floyd and Charley search the hotel and Kate wonders where Dog is. Turns out that Barney and Max are following Dog. Later that evening, Barney, Max and Dog show up at the hotel. Sam and Sgt. Horton arrive pretending to be Charley and Floyd. Sam and Joe bump heads and knock each other out. Kate is able to hit Barney and Max on the head with a CIA sign, knocking them out. Sgt. Horton ties them up. Sam explains that Dog came to his store and made Sam and Horton follow him to the hotel.
