Now that I think about it, I can't decide whether it's pipe or pike. But it's definitely thing and not think.
Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

ION, I'm watching this movie on TV, and I think it has every actor born in the late seventies or early eighties. So far, I've spotted Kirsten Dunst, Gaby Hoffman, Rachel Leigh Cook, Heather Matarazzo, Vincent Kartheiser, Hayden Christensen, and Matthew Lawrence. And there are a few other people that I recognize but can't quite place.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Another think coming is the original form of the colloquial phrase aimed at someone who has a mistaken view. It comes from the old comical expression, If that’s what you think, you’ve got another think coming.
Just so you're clear. I mean, say what you want, but you're the new kid on the block if you're using "thing". And "pipe".
The idiom meaning soon to happen or appear was originally coming down the pike, not coming down the pipe. But both expressions are now widely used and understood.

OMG, it is never "another thing coming" never. Take that back.
Never ever ever.
If you think [insert erroneous idea here] then you have another think coming, because lo you are wrong like a wrong thing.
