Served, domestically, in a bad way? (4,3)

I believe the answer is:

done for

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

'bad way?' is the definition.
'done for' can be an answer for 'bad' (thesaurus). I'm not certain of the 'way?' bit.

'served domestically in a' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'a' could be 'one' and 'one' is present in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for done for that I've seen before include "in serious trouble" , "finished" , "killed" , "close to death" , "Dead - almost dead" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
