mystery tour
A short journey, especially with a group of other people in a bus, to visit places that are kept secret from you until you get there; often, this is done by management of a rock band or a musical establishment -- because it sees only the bottom line in entertainment or --namely the cash value of the group.
"We were taken on a mystery tour to some charity event would rather not mention!" "They don't respect our talents, they see us as only a money cow." "I've had enough of this crap!"

Kangaroo Court
A kangaroo court is one not following established legal principles and procedures. Some groups off prisoners, for example, try their fellows and occasionally enforce arbitrary, cruel, and/or perverted punishments. In the West a comic show may be made of a kangaroo court, with "dudes" or others being tried for trivial or imaginary offenses. An authorized court may be called a kangaroo court if its procedures are highhanded, irresponsible, and of doubtful legality:.

borrowed light
If you are in a room with no windows or other direct sources of light, and if light enters from an adjoining lighted room, the indirect illumination is borrowed light.
We worked in the library and had only the borrowed light from the adjacent room to work with that night.
