"Give (one) the hook" = Để ai cuốn gói đi/cho ai một cú hất -> Cách chức ai; giảm bớt trách nhiệm công việc cho ai.

Ví dụ
Still, the goal against did not give him the hook. So why then? I guess it could be to give him a little rest so he can be more ready to start.

It was standing room only. My last clip was going to be “What a Wonderful World,” but Michael Gourrier, the emcee (người chủ trì), wanted to give me the hook.

Jones, who played 18 snaps against the Cowboys, left the game shortly after that when Mills was ready to return. But he got the call again late in the fourth quarter after Douglas made a couple of the boneheaded plays he’s become famous for, prompting Schwartz to give him the hook.
