Here’s my card—"would you consider relocating to California?" The painter responded, "Are you serious? I've always wanted to move there!" The gallery owner replied, "Come to San Francisco, and I'll give you a spot in my gallery." They discussed where the gallery was located, when the painter could move, the type of work she would be expected to produce, and how much commission she would earn from sales.

When she showed up at the gallery, the owner said, "Sorry, but I've decided not to feature your work after all." Can the painter recover her moving expenses?
