My choice is no.6: Interpret
-I think what they meant by saying "to pull a Charlie Gordon" is like "being stupid and dump like Charlie".
In the story, Charlie Gordon is facing a mental problem and having a lower than normal IQ. He has been chosen to take a medical experiment to get himself triple time smarter.
So as the operation's result working slowly on Charlie, he realized that his friends have been playing dirty tricks on him and make him looks like a fool in front of everyone.
To people, Charlie's a pretty "not smart" guy.
So when anyone act dump or stupid or reckless, they compare those people to Charlie.
And that's why they use the sentence "to pull a Charlie Gordon".
TAH-DAH!
