"To see Charlie Icecake" is a reference to the round white icy-
looking deoderant cakes placed in each urinal in public mens' 
rooms.  It means to relieve oneself.

Other variants-- for which I have no origins-- are:

To see a man about a dog.

To see a man about a horse. 

To spend a penny (pay toilet?)
