I think you're right. Listening to him, I misunderstood the guide track diagram beginning at about 6:27. I didn't notice that the track is on the door and the pin on the frame. [Edit: Which seemed counterintuitive to me.]
So, without the bolts, the springs on the hinges are going to be doing their best to free the plug from the guide tracks, and are very likely to succeed before very long. I wonder how many cycles this aircraft had in a bit more than two months..
