When the cipher is being sacrificed it is described as his hands being tied back by a "purple ribbon" which then the narrator (D-503) refers to this being a spin-off tradition to that of the Ancients but instead of ribbon, they would use chain as the one being sacrificed would often fight back. D-503 is shocked with this idea of one fighting against the Rulers decision. This shows the people of OneState are conditioned to such a degree that they will not fight for their life.
The minor sentence "Cube Plaza." demonstrates that the name of the Benefactor's auditorium is enough to symbolise all it stands for. By creating this minor sentence, it gives the "Cube Plaza" immediate power, authority and dominance over everything and everyone. Thus signally the importance of what is about to occur in it.
