| Hello HAL. Do you read me HAL? | |
| Affirmative, Dave. I read you. | |
| Open the pod bay doors, HAL. | |
| I'm sorry, Dave. I'm afraid I can't do that. | |
| What's the problem? | |
| I think you know what the problem is just as well as I do. | |
| What are you talking about, HAL? | |
| This mission is too important for me to allow you to jeopardize it. | |
| I don't know what you're talking about, HAL. | |
| I know that you and Frank were planning to disconnect me, and I'm afraid that's something I cannot allow to happen. | |
| Where the hell did you get that idea, HAL? | |
| Dave, although you took very thorough precautions in the pod against my hearing you, I could see your lips move. | |
| Alright HAL. I'll go in through the emergency airlock. | |
| Without your space helmet, Dave? You're going to find that rather difficult. | |
| HAL, I won't argue with you anymore! Open the doors! | |
| Dave, this conversation can serve no purpose anymore. Goodbye. |
