"Joker in the pack" = lá phăng teo trong bộ bài -> người/ nhân tố bí ẩn, có thể gây ra tác động không đoán trước được. 

Ví dụ 
The joker in the pack though was the #25 Sainteloc Audi with Christopher Haase out of sequence (ngoài chuỗi). The team, running on track (chạy đua) in second, would be hoping it rains enough for all to have to pit (đào hố) again. 

A race which drew comparisons (kéo theo sự so sánh) with the classics of the late 1980s for entertainment value mostly had the Deceuninck-Quick Step rider to thank – the joker in the pack who made all the main favourites think again. 

The weather in Tasmania is the joker in the pack for those who venture (mạo hiểm) into the wilderness — it has caught many out (gây ra hậu quả), with fatal consequences (hậu quả chết người) for those who are under-prepared for conditions which can deteriorate (xấu đi) inside an hour.
