Ring your bell...

Lois: (gets mad at a guy that's filming her) Hey, if you don't get
that camera out of my face, I'm gonna ring your bell (beat him up? Maybe she says that because before that this guys said to her 'Ring that bell'?), buddy!

"Beat him up" indeed. It's one of those expressions like, "That guy needs to get his clock cleaned" (needs to have somebody beat him up).

Hi,
I think the underlying idea is 'I'll hit you so hard that you hear a bell ring in your head'.
