Fires can, and do, occur in GA airplanes, especially with engine starts. You obviously don't want to scare your passengers, but the extra pair of hands could be very useful if you find yourself fighting flames during any part of the flight. If you have a fire extinguisher on board -- you do, right? -- show your passengers where it is located, how to unlatch it from its mount, and how to use it in the unlikely event of a fire.
