OK, I finally figured out what you are talking about.  I was visiting the
tents while nobody else was there.  There's nothing in the small tent and
you can't get into the large tent.  I finally decided that there must be
something else I must do or see first before I can do anything at the tents.
So I went back to the temple and finally figured that out, and when I returned
to the tents, lo and behold, there were people there and something to steal!
Now your comments about the rug make a lot of sense.  Thanks!
