That would the eleventh hour, as in the last hour before midnight, the beginning of a new day. Not certain the etymology of the term, but i suspect it has something to do with the final hours before an execution. Executions with the electric chair and gas chamber were traditionally performed at midnight, therefore the last hour before an execution would be the final hour or the eleventh hour.
