To call the shots means to be in charge of something. For example, in Government, the Prime Minister or the President may call the shots. When you call the shots, then what you ask to be done gets done.
In football, the referee calls the shots about penalties.
If a couple can't decide where to go on a date, the man might say to the woman "You call the shots." That means they will go wherever she says.
