think again
Reassess your position
Think again is an imperative urging someone to reconsider a belief or planned action, usually because they're wrong or the plan will fail.
It carries a warning tone: If you think you can get away with this, think again.
The phrase implies the speaker knows something the listener doesn't, or that reality will prove them mistaken.
