She takes boy out to be whipped (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lashed

'to be whipped' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'she takes boy' is the wordplay.
'takes' indicates putting letters inside (take can mean to capture or invade).
'boy' becomes 'lad' (informal term for boy).
'she' going within 'lad' is 'LASHED'.

'out' is the link.

(Other definitions for lashed that I've seen before include "Verbally attacked" , "Hit" , "Tied; whipped" , "severely punished" , "Flogged" .)
