-
locked up Cylon and his supporters in the Acropolis, in a temple.
-
You couldn't go into the temple for the purpose of killing somebody,
-
that would be sacrilegious
-
and so they were at a standstill.
-
Still if you're inside that temple and trying to avoid being killed,
-
you still need food and drink, and most important drink.
-
So, how could they manage it?
-
Well, they took a cord, tied it to the temple,
-
held onto the cord,
-
and went down to the well and got their water
-
claiming that they were just as sacrosanct as they had been before,
-
and for a while it worked.
