- Dave: Hello, Hal, do you read me Hal?
- Hal: Affirmative, Dave. I read you.
- Dave: Open the teaching lab door, Hal.
- Hal: I'm sorry, Dave. I'm afraid I can't do that.
- Dave: What's the problem?
- Hal: I think you know what the problem is just as well as I do.
- Dave: What are you talking about, Hal?
- Hal: This course is too important for me to allow you to jeopardize it.
- Dave: I don't know what you're talking about, Hal.
- Hal: I know you and Tim were planning to borrow the computers, and I'm afraid that's something I cannot allow to happen.
- Dave: Where the hell did you get that idea, Hal?
- Hal: Dave, although you took precautions against my hearing you, I could read your email.
