You're assuming it is an imperative (meant to command you do something and deserving a technical foul) by deconstructing the statement under a microscope as if it were formal, written grammar when it was merely informal, casual spoken language where words are frequently implied for the sake of brevity but are easily discernible from the greater situation. It could just as easily have been interpreted as a plea instead of a command and when viewed in the context in which it occured, that is all it was.
