1 walk a chalk line

( walk a (или the) chalk line (или chalk-line))

1) пройти по одной половице ( в доказательство своей трезвости)

‘You are in liquor and so early too. I'm ashamed of you.’ ‘Well, that's true, sir,’ says Andrew... ‘But I can walk straight enough for practical purposes. I can walk a chalk line...’ (Th. Hardy, ‘Selected Stories’, ‘Andrew Satchel and the Parson and Clerk’) — - Вы пьяны, и к тому же с самого утра. Мне стыдно за вас. - Да, это верно, сэр, - сказал Эндрю... - Но меня не бросает из стороны в сторону. Могу пройти по одной половице...

2) амер.; разг. вести себя безупречно, безукоризненно

That son of a bitch Sherm Ruedy - she apparently never referred to the Police Chief in any other way: That son of a bitch Sherm Ruedy had watched her all the time and apparently took pleasure in warning her about once a week that he would pick her up if she didn't walk the chalk line. (J. Jones, ‘Some Came Running’, book III, ch. XXXII) — Этот сукин сын Шерм Руди - а иначе начальника полиции Гинни, видимо, не называла, - этот сукин сын Шерм Руди все время наблюдал за ней и явно получал удовольствие, чуть не каждую неделю предупреждая, что посадит ее в тюрьму, если она не будет вести себя безупречно.

3) амер.; разг. твёрдо придерживаться определённой линии поведения

ⓘ Do not pass go, (do not collect £200/$200) Au Monopoly les joueurs tirent parfois une carte qui les envoie sur la case "prison". Sur cette carte sont inscrits les mots do not pass go, do not collect £200 (ou bien do not collect $200 s'il s'agit de la version américaine). Cette phrase, dont la version française est "ne passez pas par la case départ, ne recevez pas 20 000 francs", est utilisée de façon allusive et sur le mode humoristique dans différents contextes: on dira par exemple you do that again and you're going straight to jail, Bill. Do not pass go, do not collect $200 ("refais ça, Bill, et je t'assure que tu iras droit en prison). On peut également utiliser cette expression lorsque quelqu'un essaie de mener un projet à bien mais rencontre des obstacles: the country is trying hard to get back on its feet but because of the civil war it has not even been allowed to pass go, let alone collect £200 ("le pays fait de son mieux pour se rétablir mais la guerre civile n'arrange rien, bien au contraire").

ⓘ Go ahead, make my day C'est la formule prononcée par l'inspecteur Harry Callahan (incarné par Clint Eastwood) dans le film Sudden Impact (1983) lorsqu'il se trouve confronté à un gangster. Il s'agit d'une façon d'encourager le bandit à se servir de son arme afin de pouvoir l'abattre en état de légitime défense: "allez, vas-y, fais-moi plaisir". On utilise cette formule par allusion au film et en réaction à une personne qui vient de proférer des menaces. Ainsi, le président Reagan s'en servit en s'adressant à des travailleurs qui menaçaient de se mettre en grève.
