Explanation:

- In the given sentence, the phrase "tooth and times" (A) is incorrect; it should be "tooth and nail" (B), which means to fight with determination.

- "times" should be swapped with "nail" for the correct idiomatic expression.

- The phrase "until it’s too overpower" (D) seems awkward. It should be replaced with "late" (C), making it a coherent statement: "Take the call until it’s too late".

- Thus, swap words A-B and C-D for clarity and grammatical correctness.

Correct Option: 3 - A-B and C-D
