Пока мы ждём результатов судебного блокбастера Джонни Деппа и Эмбер Херд, хочу поделиться одним интересным выражением оттуда:
On the final day of testimony, Amber Heard was asked about Kate Moss' decision to testify on behalf of Johnny Depp. Heard responded that she knows many people “will
come out of the woodwork to be in support of Johnny.”
come/crawl out of the woodwork – to appear suddenly usually because one sees an opportunity to get something for oneself (выползать из ниоткуда, используется как критика)
As soon as she won the lottery, people started coming out of the woodwork, asking for money.
