Changing a boolean inside a movieclip via the main stage.

I have a movieclip and within it is a bit of actionscript and a couple of different movieclips to make it function like the button on a ball point pen (you click it and it stays clicked until you click it again).

var booleanClick:Boolean = false;
var colorTransform:ColorTransform = optBox.transform.colorTransform;

optHitState.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClickHandler);

function onClickHandler(myEvent:MouseEvent){

     if (booleanClick == false ) {
          colorTransform.color = 0xB5CDE6;
          optBox.transform.colorTransform = colorTransform;
          booleanClick = true;
     } else {
          colorTransform.color = 0xFFFFFF;
          optBox.transform.colorTransform = colorTransform;
          booleanClick = false;
     }
}

I have thirty-some-odd of these ball point pen movieclips on my main stage.

I want to be able to "clear" all the movieclips so that the optbox color is white and the booleanClick is false with a button that is on my main stage. Currently I've got it working for the optbox color, but when i try to trace out my boolean - it gives me nothing (not even an error).

var cClear:ColorTransform;
var optionArray = new Array ( mc1, mc2, mc3, mc4, mc5, mc6 ); // all my ball point pen movieclips are in this array.

clearButtons.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goClear);

function goClear(e:MouseEvent):void {
     
     for (var i:int = 0; i < optionArray.length; i++) {
          cClear = optionArray.optBox.transform.colorTransform;
          cClear.color = 0xFFFFFF;
          optionArray.optBox.transform.colorTransform = cClear;
          trace(optionArray.booleanClick + i);
          optionArray.booleanClick = false;
          trace(optionArray.booleanClick + i);
     }
}

I don't want to get deeper into this monster of a project without making sure this is working first. Is my boolean working and just my trace statements aren't worded right or is my method to change the boolean wrong?
