Charlie is the Dangerous Emissions Supervisor of Sector 7G at the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant. He is one of Homer's friends. He drives a Duesenberg J. Charlie is known to have recurring bad luck. He was arrested for threatening officials over the slow progression of HDTVs to beat them up. He was once disabled as claimed by Lenny after Homer notices he is not at the plant’s exercise. However, he later recovered in his next appearance. Charlie, along with other employees, were caught on fire because of Homer's negligence, and stupidity. As a member of the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant softball team, Charlie uses his sister's wooden leg as a baseball bat. Charlie was replaced by Mindy Simmons after he, Homer, Lenny, and Carl play a prank on a worker and cause a radioactive gas leak and Charlie complains to Mr. Burns that the plant requires a real emergency exit rather than one which is painted on. Burns lowers a giant tube which sucks Charlie up, sending him to an Asian country where he is forced to dance on a table. (Source: Fandom.com, CC BY-SA)
