Not while you're in this house, it's not!

Could someone help clarify the following?

- This is private between me and Clark.
- Not while you’re in this house, it’s not!

Feels like one of not's is excess. Is it some kind of double negation? Any rules to consider on this particular case?

If you heard how this would be said, you would understand that this is repeated for emphasis, not negated by being double.

And who is the author? A complete source reference includes both the title and author(s).
