Lucky Luke

- Season 1

(1984)

Nobody is surprised when the Daltons escape again. Lucky is waiting in their home town when they rejoin their penniless mother, whom shop-keepers just allow to rob them daily, as she was their only visitor and smuggled in a file. Despite guard dog Rataplan, who causes trouble to whomever he follows, and ma Dalton's cat, Lucky can handle the boys, and her albeit it with much more effort.

The tender foot.

After the Daltons latest escape, Joe vows to avoid being brought back by Lucky Luke by moving to Canada under the aliases Frank, Louis, Robert and Jim 'Imbecile' Jones. Their trail of crimes is easily followed anyhow, and over the border Lucky, having no jurisdiction, teams up with Mounties corporal Winston Pendergast, who has reports of their first crime in Canada. The chase proves long and eventful.

Lucky and Jolly looked to boarding the river boat Daisyy Belle for Minneapolis in New Orléans. However Lucky can't resist assisting the old captain Barrows in a race dare against the Low River, whose captain spares no dirty tricks,, largely depending on moody, gullible ship mechanic Banks.

While investigating the theft of army weapons, Lucky Luke meets famous Wild West personality Calamity Jane.

Against his better judgment, Lucky accepts to supervise the Daltons as ultimate test for a humanitarian senator's experimental rehabilitation program. Luke stops the Daltons escaping to offer them a full pardon if they spend the next month clean as a whistle. Even Joe commits to seeking an honest job for the time, so he can legally take revenge on Lucky afterward, but a clerical error spoils this game.

Quack 'doc' Doxey sells lemonade as a panacea. When he's run out of town, Lucky provides him a safe escort to Green Valley, where the quack's 'elixir' rendered everyone green, and so on following his colorful trail. Lucky catches up and disguises as a golden 'miner' mark.

A journalist by the name of Scribbs is writing a colourful history of the Wild West and its most notorious characters. Lucky Luke tells him a history of the Daltons in episodic form.

Lucky is hired to escort wanted adolescent Billy the Kid from Texas to stand trial in New Mexico. Clumsy rowdy Malloy was hired to free Billy, but rather causes physical danger, mostly for himself and bystanders, worse then Rantanplan. When Luke gets his job done, the result is most disappointing.

After helping to stop the robbery of a stage coach, Lucky Luke is hired by the stage coach company to guard a gold transport headed for San Francisco. He is accompanied by prison dog Rantanplan (a. k. a. Rin-Tin-Can / Bushwack).

Washington summons Lucky to give a Russian grand duke a tour including cattle crime capital Abilene, Kansas, as his adventurous highness otherwise refuses to sign a crucial US-Russian treaty. A foreign spy tries to sabotage them. Next the aristocrat insists on other risky detours, so Lucky and the US Cavalry must even fake an Indian attack.

Arresting a local tyrant crook, Lucky reduces his HQ to a phantom town. A telegraph error sees Joe Dalton released instead of another Joe, and he manages to free his brothers. They head to the ghost town, which they declare Dalton City, under mayor Joe's pirate flag, hoping to found a crime free-haven. Luke heads there and bizarrely advises Joe how to run the town.

Lucky Luke reluctantly accepts to escort an atypical convoy: a caravan of single women for a desperately male-only town, across Comanche Indian territory. The Daltons escaped again, a pro criminal reportedly infiltrates cross-dressing, and Luke worries about a mystery admirer.
