get in dutch with someone There's a phrase in Stephen King's "Firestarter": "it would surely get them in dutch with whoever was pulling the strings on this show." Does that mean to displease the guy, or something like that?

To get 'in dutch' with someone means to get into trouble or disfavour. 'He's in dutch with the teacher for disturbing the class.' So your sentence could be rewritten 'It would surely get them in trouble with whoever is pulling the strings on this show.'
