 That Wasn't a Request
comment
Usually a Stock Reply to "No!", with a hint of threatening sarcasm. A popular phrase with villains when heroes just won't cooperate. Precedes use of force to get the object of the not-a-request.
May also be worded as "That wasn't a suggestion/question" or "I wasn't asking."
Not to be confused with That's an Order!, which is said by a commander to a subordinate to show that they're pulling rank and that things are not up for discussion. "That wasn't a request" is said by people who have no official command over others but, for the moment, are ordering them around anyway; there is no reason for the person to cooperate except that the person giving the order is about to use force to back up their demand, whatever it may be. Usually said in response to Subterfuge Judo.

X-Men:
Joss Whedon's run gives a rare inversion when a Breakworlder points a gun at Kitty and Colossus.
In Uncanny X-Men, #183, after Colossus broke off his relationship with Kitty, Logan announced that he was taking Piotr to a nearby bar (for the unstated purpose of beating Piotr up for breaking Kitty's heart; Piotr ended up in a brawl with Juggernaut instead). When Piotr declined, Logan answered, "I don't recall givin' you a choice, Bub."

Saints Row:
Julius Little does this in Saints Row when his right-hand man Troy refuses to go to bring down the Vice Kings. We later learn that Troy's actually an undercover cop, and the Vice Kings have a bargain with the police to prevent them from being arrested.
As a follow-up to the above, The Boss says the same thing to Shaundi in Saints Row 2 when she asks why she's being assigned to investigate the Sons of Samedi. Of course, just like Troy, Shaundi has a good reason to be wary of the Sons; namely, her Psycho Ex-Boyfriend Veteran Child works for them.

Discworld:
In Men at Arms, Carrot tells Lord Downey, #2 in the Assassin's Guild that they will send someone to recover the body of Doctor Cruces, the late head of the Assassin's Guild and the Big Bad who was killed after attempting to assassinate Lord Vetinari. A downplayed example as Carrot, while incredibly strong, is not in a position to enforce his demand while he's surrounded by assassins on their own turf, but fortunately Detritus shows up in a really bad mood thanks to Cruces murdering his friend Cuddy shortly afterwards to tip the odds.

Marvel Cinematic Universe:
In Iron Man 2:
In Doctor Strange, the good doctor uses the phrase, "I've come to bargain" when he speaks with the Big Bad — the abomination that is Dormammu. He keeps repeating it as he is killed, but he keeps resetting time to just before he makes his declaration, and after the umpteenth time, the Big Bad realizes this isn't some bequest or area he has any leverage in. He better listen to Doctor Strange or he will be trapped forever by Strange in a loop of Strange coming to him and Dormammu killing him.

Big Finish Doctor Who. In I, Davros the Kaled Supremo is responsible for the death of Davros's mother, a prominent politician who sponsored the militant youth movement that's now threatening a revolution. In exchange for calming the situation, Davros commands the Supremo to give him and the Science Elite the authority to use whatever resources they need free of oversight. When the Supremo objects that this is more power than even he has, Davros says bluntly that he's not negotiating, and the Supremo had better comply if he doesn't want to be dragged out into the street and lynched.

One Piece:
Don Krieg's attempt to get the ocean-going restaurant Baratie to serve him and his crew food goes something like this. The chefs know that Krieg will attack the Baratie once they're done eating, but Krief makes it clear that refusal is one thing he doesn't tolerate. Then Zeff hands him a sack of food and tells the other chefs to get ready for a fight.
Happens again to Sanji in the Zou Arc. He's invited to a wedding hosted by Big Mom as the groom. When he refuses, the messenger tells him that when Big Mom asks you to come to one of her parties, it's in your best interests to come — or else.

Game of Thrones:
Invoked in Season 6 when the Faith Militant come to bring Cersei (at the time confined to the Red Keep pending trial) to the Sept of Baelor.
Also invoked by Jon Snow to Janos Slynt, when Janos refuses Jon's order to restore Greyguard. When he repeats his refusal, Jon executes him.

Freakshow does this to Danny in the episode "Reality Trip":
And Fright Knight also does it in the episode named after him.

Firefly:
This exchange:

Seen more dramatically in "Out of Gas", when Mal orders Wash away from Zoe's bedside after she's critically injured.
