Turn this AS3 into an array and work with it - actionscript-3

Question

How can I turn this basic function method into an Array and call to easily. Pretty much I am just comparing if objects have become false and then do something...but this just seems like a lot of code for something so easy. any ideas?
var b:Boolean = true;
var i:Boolean = true;
var t:Boolean = true;
var a:Boolean = true;
var m:Boolean = true;
var ii:Boolean = true;
var n:Boolean = true;
var e:Boolean = true;
var s:Boolean = true;
level5_mc.let_b_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, hitB);
level5_mc.let_i_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, hitI);
level5_mc.let_t_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, hitT);
level5_mc.let_a_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, hitA);
level5_mc.let_m_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, hitM);
level5_mc.let_ii_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, hitII);
level5_mc.let_n_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, hitN);
level5_mc.let_e_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, hitE);
level5_mc.let_s_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, hitS);
function hitB(event:MouseEvent){
b=false;
trace("good");
level5_mc.removeChild(level5_mc.let_b_mc);
}
function hitI(event:MouseEvent){
if (b==false){
i=false;
level5_mc.removeChild(level5_mc.let_i_mc);
}
else {
//decrease timer
i=true;
}
}
function hitT(event:MouseEvent){
if (b==false && i==false){
t=false;
level5_mc.removeChild(level5_mc.let_t_mc);
}
else {
//decrease timer
i=true;
}
}
and so forth... edited below
var b=level5_mc.let_b_mc;
var i=level5_mc.let_i_mc;
var t=level5_mc.let_b_mc;
var movieClips:Array = [b,i,t];
var movieClipFlags:Object = {
b:[],
i:[b],
t:[b,i]
};
for each(var mc:MovieClip in movieClips) {
mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,movieClipHit);
}
function movieClipHit(e:MouseEvent) {
var mc:MovieClip = e.target as MovieClip;
if(readyToRemove(mc))
level5_mc.removeChild(mc);
else
trace("Can't remove yet.");
}
function readyToRemove(mc:MovieClip):Boolean {
for each(var mc:MovieClip in movieClipFlags[mc]) {
//if it has parent, it isn't removed yet.
if(mc.parent)
return false;
}
return true;
}

Something like the following should give you some ideas. I haven't tested the code you migt need to make some adjustments depending on your needs.
//put other movies clips in this array too.
var movieClips:Array = [level5_mc.let_b_mc,level5_mc.let_i_mc];
var movieClipFlags:Object = {
level5_mc.let_b_mc:[],
level5_mc.let_i_mc:[level5_mc.let_b_mc],
level5_mc.let_t_mc:[level5_mc.let_b_mc,level5_mc.let_i_mc]
//put other movie clips here too with the movie clips that need to be removed in the array
};
foreach(var mc:MovieClip in movieClips) {
mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,movieClipHit);
}
private function movieClipHit(e:MouseEvent) {
var mc:MovieClip = e.target as MovieClip;
if(readyToRemove(mc))
level5_mc.removeChild(mc);
else
trace("Can't remove yet.");
}
private function readyToRemove(mc:MovieClip):Boolean {
foreach(var mc:MovieClip in movieClipFlags[mc]) {
//if it has parent, it isn't removed yet.
if(mc.parent)
return false;
}
return true;
}
Hope it helps.
