Pulled a Houdini

When you're dating a guy or girl for a few months and one day they just stop answering your texts or calling you back, essentially disappearing off the face of the earth because they don't have the backbone to break up with you.
"Hey, how're things going with you and your man, Dylan?"
"They're not. He totally pulled a Houdini on my ass"
"Aw, that sucks man."

pulled a lezak

the act of saving a friend/colleague/fellow olympians ass by pulling off the textbook perfect save of a lifetime. Refers to the 2008 Beijing Olympics in which during the 4 x 100 meter freestyle relay the U.S.A. anchor Jason Lezak overtook his French competitor in epic fashion to win the gold for the US men and make Michael Phelps' 8 gold medals a reality.
Tom: "I am still in shock with how well that meeting went!"
Bob: "Tom, you nailed that presentation! Not only did you save our company from being bought out, but you convinced the investors to kick down another 100 million dollars! You totally pulled a Lezak in there!"
