Cryptic Stuff

While it was done some years ago I see, I thought I would try a cryptic crossword-like thread for fun and to try and boost a little more interest here. I made up the below question for anyone interested in such a challenge. I thought the first person to get it correct might come up with the next question. A clue though - if you copy one from a newspaper or magazine etc., the answer can often be found on the internet. I can explain the answer for anyone who asks. ๐Ÿ™‚

 

The prisoner at the cave would not stand for the electrically charged droplets of water.

It isn't Scone domino-710.

 

She_el, I'll give a clue then.

 

There are three capitalized words. In cryptic crosswords capitalizations usually have specific significance. Also, beware of misdirections!

Do you want me to try and be clearer, without giving it away?

Maybe wait a bit and see if she_elephant or the countess can work it out.

 

If they can't, then maybe another clue for us lesser mortals.
