Depends on the seat configuration. Some times instead of a plug you have a door.

Are some of those times where the plug converts to a door mid-flight?

No - doors have hinges and you can close them afterwards without having to look for the blown door in someone’s backyard.

But doors need bolts too, right?

Yes, but FAA is not willing to pro-actively inspect the entire plane, at least 3-5 random ones should be inspected, maye also offer something so Boeing employees have the guts to speak up

I'm curious about this, too. Seems like the door would have the exact same mount as the plug if they're to be exchanged...?
