In exchange for $400,000, Ophelia offers to recreate a scene from the musical, “Annie,” in business tycoon Elbert’s backyard for Elbert’s New Year’s Eve party. Elbert is a huge Annie fan, and Ophelia threw a “super-dooper sweetener” into the offer, which stated that Ophelia would get at least ten of the cast members from the movie “Annie” to make an appearance and sing at least three Annie tunes of the party guests’ choosing. Elbert is thrilled; so, that very day, in late October – 65 days before the party – Elbert accepts Ophelia’s offer. The day of the party, on New Year’s Eve, Ophelia calls Elbert and informs him that no one from the “Annie” cast will be making an appearance, but that the rest of the party would come off “without a hitch.” Elbert is very upset. He not only wants his down payment to Ophelia of $100,000 to be returned to him, but also wants Ophelia to reimburse Elbert’s incidental costs to date related to putting on the party (some prepaid costs not covered in the Ophelia-Elbert contract that concern catering and crowd control). Elbert claims that he has serious legal grounds to sue Ophelia. Does he?

Your lab has been working with an enzyme that converts isocitrate (substrate) into alpha-ketoglutarate (product). This is an enzyme important in the Krebbs cycle, and can be competitively inhibited by NADH. You’re testing a new drug, Drug X, that you predict might be a noncompetitive inhibitor for this enzyme.

Zoey spilled orange juice on her computer two days before her term paper was due. Zoey desperately needed a new laptop, so she went online and found a laptop that fit her needs. She emailed the seller, Lisa , expressing her desire to purchase the laptop. Lisa emailed Zoey back and said that she (Lisa) would sell Lisa’s laptop to Zoey for $300. An hour later, Zoey and Lisa signed the following agreement: “I, Lisa , agree to sell my laptop computer to Zoey Smith for Four Hundred Dollars and zero cents. This is the entirety of the agreement. This agreement supersedes any and all other agreements made by the seller and the buyer.” Zoey now claims that she should only pay $300 for the laptop because during that initial email exchange between Lisa and Zoey, Lisa told Zoey that $300 was the price of the laptop, and she has the email exchange as evidence of the price quote of $300.  What legal concept could be used to enforce the contract for $400?
