Duck and Cover

Original: Official 1951 United States civil defense film, Duck and Cover. Intended primarily for children, it portrays the act of ducking and covering by the character Bert the Turtle. The concept of "duck and cover" is a method of personal protection against the effects of a nuclear explosion whereby persons near the would-be affected area would drop to the ground in a prone position or seek shelter and protection under such objects as desks or other pieces of furniture, or in structures such as buildings or fallout shelters.

Slang: To be evasive or deceptive in one's behavior.
As the police continued to question the suspect about the events leading up to the crime, it was clear he knew more than he was telling. He immediately went duck and cover and refused to cooperate.

In sports betting, a back door cover occurs when the team you wagered on covers the spread in the last minutes of the game. Often times this happens when the actual game is a blow out, yet the spread or line of the game is still at play.
