Superman: The Animated Series, Season 1

Toyman:
Miss Lane, pay attention to the story. And take good notes.

[Toyman hands Lois a kittykat style notepad suited for little girls. Toyman then shows a pop-up book]

Toyman:
It's a very sad story, one most people have forgotten. Once upon a time, there was a kindly man who loved nothing more than making toys. He wanted to build the most wonderful toy factory in all the world, only he had no money to pay for it. Then one day a man came along, a very bad man. [pop up of Bruno Mannheim holding a wad of cash and with devil horns] He offered to pay for the factory under one condition...

[Cut to Daily Planet office]

Headline:
TOYMAKER SENTENCED TO TEN YEARS

Clark Kent:
"The factory became the front for a numbers racket. Although Bruno Mannheim was named as a suspect, he was never indicted. Only the toymaker, Winslow Schott, was convicted."

Jimmy Olsen:
Sounds like Bruno played him for a patsy.

[Cut to Toyman's hideout]

Toyman:
The bad man watched and laughed while the police locked the kindly toymaker in the dungeon forever. Clang!

[Cut to Daily Planet]

Clark Kent:
2 to 1, Schott's our Toyman.

Jimmy Olsen:
Uh, I don't think so, Clark. Take a look.

[Presents the obituary of Winslow Schott Sr.]

Clark Kent:
His obituary?

Jimmy Olsen:
Poor guy. He died before making parole.

Clark Kent:
Yeah, but he had a survivor.

[Cut to Toyman's hideout]

Toyman:
That's right, Miss Lane. The toymaker had a son. But without his father, the poor little boy was bounced from foster home to foster home, like a little toy that nobody wanted. A childhood is a terrible thing to lose, Miss Lane, but I'm getting mine back... with a vengeance.
