In the Jazz - World...."bringing"XXXXX" home" frequently refers to a SEVEN or TWELVE (key+minors) return to the root-key.
This could last 12 minutes if you are "goin' roun' de horn" and your are expecting an entire set..... "The Call" is from "the top."
Say, you have been "on the circle" from B-flat for four cycles...no one "has the flow" - "there is no inspiration" - you are currently in Key of D.....it means, sequae this back to B-flat.....let use move on.... (no one is inspired.)

ALWAYS Clairify signals, calls, progression with the leader during the hour before performance.
