Let's give a small summary for those who don't know.

Paris of Troy falls in love with Helen, the wife of the king of Sparta, and attempts to kidnap her.

Then war broke out between the two cities.

After years of war, the Spartans send a horse statue to Troy as a peace gift to sweeten the deal.

But things are not as they seem...

The gates are opened and the horse is let in.
