last round
Concluding stage now
Last round signals the final occurrence before something ends.
In bars, last round means the bartender's final call before closing—your last chance to order a drink.
In boxing or competitions, it's the concluding bout or heat.
The phrase implies urgency: whatever you want to do, do it now.
