"Get the draw on (someone or something)" = rút súng nhanh hơn (ai, đối phương) -> cụm từ này nghĩa là giành lợi thế trước người khác, vượt nhanh hơn đối thủ hoặc bắt được ai trong hoàn cảnh nguy hiểm.

Ví dụ
As Raymond Chandler's private eye Philip Marlowe, James Garner knew when to get the draw on Bruce Lee, in "Marlowe" (1969).

Director William Wellman, left, watches Bill Junior, as Buffalo Bill Jr., get the draw on actor Thomas Mitchell during production of the 1944 film.

When approaching the town the next day, Karga's guild friends try to get the draw on Mando and Cara. They don't get very far, because Karga takes his own guys down first. His original plan was to kill Mando and take the kid (shocking), but the events of the previous night have changed him. Experiences with the Force tend to do that.
