you wait

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'warning' is the definition.
('just you wait!')

I don't understand the rest of the clue.

(Other definitions for you wait that I've seen before include "there will be trouble" , "Threat" , "sounds threatening" , "Words of warning" , "When service is slow" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
