There were two instances in Charles In Charge where Charles had a gun in his dream(the part where the Powells are afraid of losing their home) and Buddy had a sword(some sort of foppish landlord). Of course, I love the part where Baio gets faked stabbed and goes across the room dying slowing...every cast member gave him a point for dramatic moments, you know, death scenes. I love that bit...I wish I see it again. Also, when one of Charles' girlfriends' father has a gun also and Buddy sees the future of Charles' life nearing death when in fact it was a toy guy.
