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.

Gleeking

 

"Gleeking is the name for shooting saliva out from under your tongue - usually this occurs when you're yawning. Inside your mouth there are three pairs of major saliva glands and then thousands of minor ones. Two of the major ones are located on the bottom of your mouth - the submandibular glands and the sublingual glands. When eating these glands start pushing out saliva and usually any excess drains away through ducts under your tongue. But sometimes this can build up and the pressure on the glands from your tongue causes it to squirt out."
