The Knock - when someone knocks on your door to bust you, serve a warrant, or otherwise ruin your day.

Could be in an apartment when the super knocks on your door because you’ve had a friend staying over too long. Could be in a hotel when you haven’t checked out and they’re telling you you’re late and it’s time to leave. Could be in a dorm when you’re having a party and you get busted by the RA. Or could be when the police show up because you’re in deep shit. Probation officer, serving a warrant, anything. It’s bad news.

The knock is from someone in a position of authority, hitting your door to tell you you’re in trouble. You don’t have a choice to open the door or not. The only question is how bad the trouble is going to be.
Oh shit, he got the knock.

I got the knock this morning, I’m out boys, getting evicted as we speak.

Remove me from the group chat, I’m worried about getting the knock after one of you idiots says something that triggers the feds
