 * This is from the "HK-47 Unhinged" section of a disc that came with the Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords: Prima Official Game Guide. The dialogue is not taken from the game files and was recorded specifically for the DVD. And it's not that this quote reminds you of Bender. It's that he's quoting Bender. And he also quotes other famous robots from film & TV. Enochf 02:47, 15 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Oh sorry, I didn't realize that it was noncanon... but I did know he was quoting Bender. Dark Ridley 02:59, 15 April 2009 (UTC)
