judgement day
Ultimate cosmic verdict
Judgement day is the moment of final reckoning—in religious traditions, the day when God judges all souls for eternal reward or punishment.
The term extends to any decisive moment when consequences arrive: When the audit comes, that's judgement day for the department.
