Try it out in the REPL!

scala> case class Foo(i:Int) { def blah(j:Int) = i * j }
defined class Foo

scala> def bar(foo:Foo) = { import foo._; blah(10) }
bar: (foo: Foo)Int

scala> bar(Foo(33))
res0: Int = 330

We're importing the 'blah' method from an instance of Foo, so we can
call it as a function.

Hopefully this helps a bit?
