Got and got to

Please, could you complete with an example the following (here the words/sentences are used referring to a requesting) because I don't have any idea. I really didn't understand what they mean.

1) Got...?

2) Any chance of...?

(Here does nºs 1 and 2 have the same meaning?)

3) That's where my .....got to! (by the way what's the meaning of got to , here in the end of this sentence? ).

Thank you,

Stacy
