3)
the total and complete truth

Remember:
   "One in a Million chances turn up nine times out of ten."
                       -Fred Colon
The problem with this, of course, is that since the odds can be easily affected by anything when it's that unlikely, attempting to actually get million-to-one odds usually results in something more like 994,398-to-1 odds and a messy death.

On the Island, million-to-one odds turn up on a daily basis—like Cake and Death.
