22d scheme - last letters

36d perfidious = p + anagram of (side+four=i)

44d Oakland = a(area) inside of ok + land

54a exhumed - buzz = hum, journalist = ed, (can't think why ex)

bibblebub

I think it's EX because item here means a couple (of people), and so when they have split up one of them would be an ex.
