"going to the mattresses"
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=going%20to%20the%20mattresses
Going to war with a rival clan or family. Used in the mafia. Its when a mafia family sends someone out to get someone apartments and some mattresses for the soldiers of the family to sleep on while they hide out in saftey, waiting for a call to do something.
