Fight to get out of some scrape (5)
I believe the answer is:
scrap
'fight' is the definition.
(a scrap is a minor fight)
'out of some scrape' is the wordplay.
'out of' becomes 's' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'some' says to take the centre.
The middle of 'scrape' is 'crap'.
's'+'crap'='SCRAP'
'to get' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for scrap that I've seen before include "bundle" , "Argy-bargy" , "Discarded metal or slang fight" , "Fragment or slang fight (5)" , "Small piece; abolish" .)
