5 rats desert a sinking ship
"крысы бегут с тонущего корабля"Every time I'd lose a few games, I'd glance over at the grandstand and one more Marx would be leaving in disgust. When the match was over, only Father was left. ‘They were like rats leaving a sinking ship,’ said Father. ‘And boy, was it sinking!’ (A. Marx, ‘Life with Groucho’, ch. XXIII) — С каждым моим проигрышем с трибуны уходил еще кто-нибудь из моих родственников. К концу матча остался только отец. - Они все сбежали, как крысы с тонущего корабля, - сказал отец. - А корабль действительно тонул!
