Pretty much imprint Counterspell on Sceptor and counter a spell and use Guile to play it.

This seems mediocre.

I'd say Pinkie doesn't like it though. . .

Arcane Laboratory restricts you from casting the spell off of the Guile.  Because Guile says to 'Cast' the spell after you've already 'Cast' a counterspell off of Isochron Scepter, you can't cast the exiled spell while Arcane Laboratory is out.  It does make a good hardlock as you can guarentee they won't cast anything else for the rest of the game, but it also severly restricts you.  Better than Arcane Laboratory is Curse of Exhaustion, but several combos with that have already been posted :).
