Characters
Unknown Character
- In "Barbecue Story", we still do not know Chuckie does not have a mom. We are told in future episodes that Chuckie does not have a Mom because she has passed away when he was practically just a newborn. We never are told why though. Anyway, in this episode Chaz is seen with an orange-haired women who kind of looks like Chuckie. We can assume it is Chuckie's Mom. But, remember Chuckie's Mom died when Chuckie was not much more than a new-born. In "Barbecue Story", Chuckie is around two, so his Mom should be dead. So who is the orange-haired women?
