Eve Maid – (Wall•E)

Vectober Day #10

Main Theme: Robot Selling Food

EVE (Extraterrestrial Vegetation Evaluator) is the deuteragonist in WALL•E. She is an advanced probe droid. Numbered “01” by AUTO from the Axiom, EVE is one of several robots who are sent to Earth on a scanning mission. An advanced model equipped with a quasar ion cannon and capable of flight and high speeds, she is determined to complete her task and initially fails to notice her would-be robot Romeo, WALL•E. The two robots subsequently bond, however, and the more she sees how much WALL•E cares for her, the more she falls for him, eventually making it her top priority to protect him.

Dedicated to her mission in scanning for any signs of self-sustaining plant-life on earth, EVE was not interested in WALL•E and was even hostile towards him at first, but befriended him when they formally introduced each other and when he took her to safety.

After WALL•E saves EVE from a dust storm, he takes her to his trailer and shows her all the treasures that he has collected over the years, including the plant that he found. EVE quickly recognizes the plant, scans it and uses a tractor beam to pull it into her vegetation-containing compartment. EVE deactivates to a state in which only a blinking green beacon signals that she is on. Determined to protect EVE, he shelters her from rain, lightning and more until the Axiom return vehicle picks her up to return her to the Axiom.

When EVE is first seen in the movie, she dedicated to her task and hostile, not tolerating anyone or anything getting in her way of her task. However, after meeting WALL•E, she began to warm up to him and befriend him.

EVE has all necessary parts of a probe droid. She has an ergonomic suitable shape, scanner, flight at high speeds to cross ground quickly and morphable fingers for different purposes.  EVE is also armed with a plasma cannon in her right arm. However, it is odd that a simple probe would have a plasma gun. The gun might have been installed to remove obstacles and attack enemies. An example of this is when she blasts away an electromagnet she is trapped by and when she frees herself from a garbage cube she is stuck in.
