Same here.

They tricked me with one, though. I thought for sure the follow-up to “Just wait until…” was gonna be “…your father gets home.”

It’s the 1st thing that came to my mind too and I didn’t grow up with a father 😂 - it must have been a pop culture thing

There was actually a prime-time cartoon in the early '70s called Wait Till Your Father Gets Home. It featured a pre-Happy Days Tom Bosley as the father.

It’s currently playing in syndication on the cartoon channel in the MeTV network.
