Had the stubborn autopilot happen a few times in various Boeings. Here's a little trick: If your Boeing autopilot will not engage, turn off, then back on the autopilot electric trim switch - Usually fixes the problem. Got halfway from Cleveland to San Francisco before I discovered that. Tried it several times since, and it has always done the trick. Just FYI.

Sorry to throw some reality into this "just for fun" scenario.
