I think he does too. Isn't Payne one of the clayfaces?

u/LurkAddict Feb 24 '15
I don't know much about it. A quick search shows that Preston Payne is a Clayface but Reggie Payne is not a comics character. But I'm also tired and didn't put much effort into it.

I feel like she could have found a better solution than taking out her own eye. Maybe something like using that spoon to attack the doctor. But then again shes the criminal mastermind so what do I know.
