* EvilPlan: One of the most beautifully constructed. The plan is fueled by PragmaticVillainy, because the squad is formed enterely by [[{{TheSociopath}} sociopaths]] and a TokenGoodTeammate. The plan must be followed RightOnTheTick and it does not permit unnecesary killing. It works because it was planned by a ClockKing who is TheSociopath himself. And the plan seems to be a classic [[MacGuffin Grand Theft Macguffin]]... but in reality is a [[spoiler: DespairGambit Cadmus is pulling on the League]]

Wait… what?
At a Prison where a guard, the warren and a priest are with a heavily restrained prisoner, Floyd Lawton, aka Deadshot, walking to the chair. The prisoner seems to be taking his impending execution with humor. When they arrive, are surprised by a uniformed man sitting at the chair. When the warden ask him what does this mean, the man only gives him some papers, and the warden releases the prisoner in the man’s custody. Then Lawton ask him what happens if he doesn’t want to go with him. The man answers Lawton could take his turn at the chair.
When they are in a car leaving the prison, the man identifies himself as Colonel Flagg, who informs Lawton he is now a BoxedCrook who has the mission to infiltrate the Watchtower. Lawton answers he always wanted to die for his country.
So begins Task Force X, an episode written by John Ostrander, which shows us a total inversion of tropes like TheCaper, Mooks and the TokenGoodTeammate, that also is full of {{MythologyGag}}s.
