If you use Baited Hook on your only 5 might unit and then want to play Cruel Patron, can you play him, and what happens?

Ruling: You can play Cruel Patron, but if you select the banished unit, it will stay banished. Alternatively, you can choose not to select the banished unit and Cruel Patron will recycle.

Sequence:

• If you select the banished unit: Cruel Patron stays banished
• If you don't select the banished unit: Cruel Patron recycles

Nuances:

• Even though the only valid target is banished, you still have the option to not select it, resulting in recycling rather than being forced to select an invalid target
