The scripts, converted to code, kind of look like like methods.
What are the relationship of scripts and methods? Are scripts instance level methods? I see two possible implementations for this: - the eToys objects could have a system dictionary of methods as an instance value? - eToys objects could be singletons of a new class created on the fly?
Or are scripts code blocks associated with the instance in some other way?

Yes.

The latter. They are instances of subclasses of class Player. Usually they are singletons, unless you create "siblings" which are instances of the same class and so share all scripts.
You can actually see the scripts in the class browser (although there was a bug so that script methods did not show up properly, fixed in update #2210 scriptCatFix-sw).
Or are scripts code blocks associated with the instance in some other way?
Nope.

Are you familiar with the "halos" ?
If not : Create a script, MMB for halos on the ScriptEditorMorph that has been created, LMB on the 'debug' icon, choose browse morph class.
Repeatedly MMB on the 'clock' icon on the ScriptEditorMorph, till it says ScriptStatusControl on the bottom, then browse that morph class.

The debug halo handle is not shown in etoyFriendly mode, which is default in the Etoys image.
