I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'get wicked' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'vagrant dog to bathe' is the wordplay.
'vagrant' indicates an anagram (vagrant can mean wandering around).
'dog'+'to'+'bathe'='dogtobathe'
'dogtobathe' with letters rearranged gives 'GO TO THE BAD'.
