1 one's last card
последний козырь, последний шанс, последний довод (обыкн. употр. с гл. to play)‘Ashley,’ she began again and paused. She had not intended using her pregnancy as an argument... but as her other persuasions seemed to have made no impression, she decided to use it and her helplessness as a last card. (M. Mitchell, ‘Gone with the Wind’, ch. XLI) — - Эшли, - снова сказала Скарлетт и смущенно замолкла. Она не собиралась упоминать о своей беременности... но, поскольку все остальные доводы не произвели на Эшли никакого впечатления, ей все-таки пришлось использовать этот последний довод, сказать ему о своей беспомощности.
His annoyance was lost in the sudden heart-breaking realization that the last card he possessed had been played, with complete, utter failure. (R. Aldington, ‘All Men Are Enemies’, part II, ch. VIII) — Он вдруг с убийственной ясностью понял, что последняя его карта бита окончательно и бесповоротно, и раздражение его сменилось отчаянием.
He still remained unmoved, so I played my last card. My last card was based on the long-standing right of any accused to "challenge" anyone summoned to sit on a jury... (‘Labour Monthly’) — На судью это не произвело ни малейшего впечатления. Тогда я решил прибегнуть к последнему шансу: воспользоваться давно существующим правом подсудимого давать отвод суду...
