I can imagine the dialog:
"Open the pod bay doors, HAL."
"I can't do that, Tom."
"Why not, HAL? What's the problem?"
"You know what the problem is, Tom. You got ticked off about all the fiddly little bits in the door hinges and decided to just glue the darned things shut."
"Oh. Yeah. Right. I forgot about that."
"Shall I get out the acetone?"
"Yes, please, HAL."
