tranche de vie (slice of life);

pièce de résistance (the best item);

ne plus ultra (the utmost perfection);

belua multorum capitum (the irrational mob);

nunc est bibendum (now we must drink);

folie de grandeur (delusional, megalomaniac assumptions);

deus ex machina (explain the plot);

a ignis fatuus (a misleading idea);

quid pro quo (something for something);

pro bono publico (for the public good);

tour de force (feat of strength);

Sturm und Drang (storm and stress);
