Maria goes to Danny’s Sub Shop and buys a meatball sub. Maria takes a seat and, just before taking her first bite, notices that what looks to be a meatball covered in sauce is actually moving! It turns out to be a roach. Maria flings her sub to the floor and screams. Danny, fearing her public outcry, tells Maria, “I’ll give you whatever you want if you just stop screaming. You can have a hundred dollars now, plus free subs and chips for the next 10 months – you just need to stop screaming.” Maria stops screaming, and Danny says, “Thank you; we’ve got a deal.” Danny hands Maria five $20 bills, says, “I’ll write everything down,” and begins writing out the terms of their deal on a napkin. The terms on the napkin are: “Maria agrees to not sue Danny about today’s incident with the alleged roach. In return, Maria has received $100 and will get free subs for ten months from today’s date of June 30, 2021.” Maria and Danny both sign the napkin. A month later, Maria returns to Danny’s Sub Shop and orders a turkey sub and potato chips. Danny gives her the sub for free but charges her for the chips. Maria complains that the contract included free chips. Danny says he was just trying to calm her down when he said that, and that they “officially agreed” only to free subs. Should Danny provide Maria with free chips?
