Comes from the TV series "The A Team". Whenever the team got a mission, they would have to break their pilot, "Howling Mad" Murdock out of the VA to transport them to the mission site. Means to break a friend out of a situation (bitchy g. f., stuck at home with no gas etc) so that you and your friends can go out on a mission.
Ya know what, we should pull a Murdock and get Tony outta his place so he can come with us.
