Episode Summary
EDIT
When the Powells learn their house is to be sold and Ellen (SANDRA KERNS) loses her job, Charles (SCOTT BAIO) takes to bed with a sneezing fit and falls asleep. In his dream the family members transform into different characters; Walter (JAMES CALLAHAN) becomes Long John Silver; Lillian (ELLEN TRAVOLTA), Auntie Maine; Ellen (SANDRA KERNS), Mae West; Jamie (NICOLE EGGERT), Cinderella; Sarah (JOSIE DAVIS), Scarlett O'Hara; Adam (ALEXANDER POLINSKY), a punk rocker; and Buddy (WILLIE AAMES) an effete 18th Century landowner. Charles appears in his own dream as the Godfather and stumbles onto an idea to help the family out of their dilemma. When Charles later awakes, a chance remark by Buddy makes him wonder if it really was dream after all.moreless
