Changing Data in a Plist

Question
Hey, alright so I have a .plist that looks like;
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>Item 0</key>
<dict>
<key>Name</key>
<string>Jero</string>
<key>Initiative</key>
<integer>0</integer>
<key>EditThis</key>
<false/>
</dict>
</dict>
</plist>
In the app I have it so that when one of the rows (The data is put in a UITableView) is selected it pushes to a new view controller. I would like also to set the 'EditThis' boolean to yes, so the edit view controller can learn which to edit. However I can't seem to figure out how to change the value. Any help is much appreciated.
Solution
Load the plist into a mutable dictionary:
NSMutableDictionary *plist = [NSMutableDictionary dictionaryWithContentsOfFile:@"file.plist"];
[plist setObject:[NSNumber numberWithBool:YES] forKey:@"EditThis"];
[plist writeToFile:@"file.plist" atomically:YES];
