At the hospital, Oliver flirts with a nurse before asking Chloe for the address of a disgruntled employee named Winslow Schott with a penchant for toy bombs. Oliver suspects Winslow is working for Lex, and he wants Clark to stay out of it so he can kill Lex.

Chloe goes to Oliver’s private plane to get the address and Clark shows up wondering why she’s there. She claims it’s because even a bomb can’t stop Oliver’s work ethic, but based on the Oliver I’ve seen, his only work ethic involves working on new pick-up lines to get women to sleep with him.

Once Clark figures out the real reason, Chloe tries to defend Oliver’s desire to kill Lex since he’s pretty much turned 100 percent evil, but Clark’s goody-goody nature still thinks it’s wrong to kill him.

The Toyman visits Oliver in the hospital and handcuffs him to the bed. A half-naked Oliver Queen handcuffed to his bed? I think a few pages of fanfic accidentally slipped into this week’s shooting script. Oliver taunts the Toyman, who gets agitated and starts going crazy. OK, Chris Gauthier is doing an absolutely fantastic job playing a campy, over-the-top villain.

The Toyman has a cymbal-crashing toy monkey and after he slams his cymbals together 53 times, he’ll explode. Oliver gets the Toyman to come close enough to grab and force into releasing him and telling him where Lex is.

Thanks to a quick trip to the patent office, Clark and Lana find Winslow’s home and spot the dummy with Lex’s wireless video camera inside. They also find a model of Metropolis with the Daily Planet destroyed.
