Aw, I thought your boys might have some insight into Charles' fears. 
About FL...frankly, Derek whatshisface and Jessica Rush held the same amount of interest to me as oh, say, a bowl of soggy cereal and I don't have a vivid recollection of this scene. I think it was basically staged in the same way, but don't quote me. 
I think the scene at the end that you mentioned solidifies the theory that Charles had an inkling that there was "something" between Luci and Carton. I'm not an expert on the book and can't really speak to the accuracy of Charles' portrayal in the musical. However, I do think it makes the character more interesting. And really, Aaron is so tall and sings so purty, he could walk around reading his script in every scene and I would still watch with interest.
