[Action]
[Okay, let's do this thing. First, EVE averages the speeds that she had recorded the ball reaching as Al had rolled it the past few times. She then incorporates data on how fast the cat was running, the path on the ground that would avoid obstacles for the longest period of time, even going on to predict the duration of chase that would offer the most "fun" for the animal without tiring it.
All this takes no more than a second to process, and in the next moment, EVE launches the ball across the ground. It reaches a fairly decent speed as it rolls and hits a few bumps along the way (obviously carefully planned by EVE) that randomly shifts its path slightly to throw in a challenge for the kitten.]
