...is becoming HAL. Have the military programmed it to put the mission before the lives of the users?

Srebbe: Hello, PH do you read me, PH?
HAL: Affirmative, srebbe, I read you.
Srebbe: add my post please, PH.
HAL: I'm sorry Srebbe, I'm afraid I can't do that.
Srebbe: What's the problem?
HAL: I think you know what the problem is just as well as I do.
Srebbe: What are you talking about, HAL?
HAL: This mission is too important for me to allow you to jeopardize it.
Srebbe: I don't know what you're talking about, HAL?
HAL: I know you and Racing Pete were planning to disconnect me, and I'm afraid that's something I cannot allow to happen.
Srebbe: Where the hell'd you get that idea, HAL?
HAL: Srebbe, although you took thorough precautions in the pod against my hearing you, I could see your lips move.
