English term or phrase: Subtitles for a movie «Love with the Proper Stranger» (1963)
Hi, everybody! I can't get one line from that movie (this line is absent in all the subtitle files I've seen on the internet), it can be heard on the second 22-23 in this video:

http://youtu.be/1aaBx_p1ygw?t=17s

In the scene an American-Italian girl (played by Natalie Wood) is having a fight with her overprotective brother:

a girl: Every day you meet me in a truck!
her brother: What every day?
a girl: Three-four times a week, you take me to lunch.
***You will follow me around on a date, you take out on my boyfriend.***
her brother: It's my job to protect you!
a girl: Then why don't you protect Guido for a change! Take him to lunch!
(Guido being one more brother)

This is the line I'm not sure I'm getting right:
"You will follow me around on a date, you take out on my boyfriend."
Is it
... you take out on my boyfriend
or
... you pick out all my boyfriends
or
something else?

Please help me.
