After thinking on... a lot of things for some time, and realizing she's... really got nothing she can do about the investigation without Sakuya's and Gwyneth's stories in place, will focus on the challenge.
Amy's Plan
1. Whose timeline you will tweak, and why.
"I'm going to tweak Olivia's; she's been really nice to me and I think I'd like to return the favor. Olivia, I'm... I'm sorry if I fuck this up. I just want you to have something happy."
2. What small tweak to their timeline will you do to make things BETTER? MORI-RT would like to see creativity here.
"That timeline where she had a husband and kids... she died on an expedition to Everest, right? I'll tweak it so she misses that trip somehow. Maybe there's a flight cancellation, maybe the sherpa gets sick and can't take anybody up that day, maybe one of her kids is getting some fancy award at school and she's got to attend that. Anything that'll keep her off that mountain."
3. Explain how it will NOT create unintended, bad consequences. ...Or will, despite your best efforts, but will hopefully still be better. BOB-B bets it will still be worse. Here's your chance to show the AI up.
"It'd create good outcomes for even more people maybe. Like if more people were going to disappear on the trip and it was cancelled, they'll be okay too. The worst that would happen is the trip is delayed to sometime safer, right? And Olivia... she'll have her husband and her kids, maybe grandkids someday, and she'll get to live and watch them all grow up... I mean, it'll be better for her either way. It might frustrate some people who have to miss a flight or whatever and if the sherpa gets sick hopefully it's just a cold or something that won't cause lasting damage but will just, you know, be something they won't want to climb a mountain with."
...yeah, both family and weird incidents with "disappearing during a mountain expedition" kind of hit really, REALLY close to home for Amy, so there you go.

Stupid doomed timeline...
