tit for tat

Solution :(B) This line says "Joey set up a prank to EXACT his revenge on his older sister,"so the closest meaning for the UNDERLINED PORTION is (B). (A) is "to inflict harm on behalf of,"so it would only be approriate to say,"Joey set out to avenge himself." (C ) adds assumption, namely that Joey is cruel. (D) is a SLANG term for revenge, but it isn't precise to say "tit for tat on his older sister."
