Dr$.$ Bivona needed some yard work done. She told her Business Law class that she would give $$50$ to the first person who mowed her yard. She also entered into an agreement with Jenna who agreed to trim some shrubbery for $$40.$ Another student, Nate went to mow Dr$.$ Bivona's yard. Unfortunately, just as he finished mowing, a neighborhood dog bit him, and he had to go to the emergency room for a couple of stitches. Dr$.$ Bivona refused to pay Nate because she said that he had upset the neighbors and their dog, and that he had created too much chaos. Secretly, Dr$.$ Bivona was glad about the dog bite because she felt it gave her a reason not to pay. Nate refused to pay the emergency room because he said that they did not have a binding, bilateral contract. Jenna refused to trim the shrubbery because she got a better offer and claimed that she was not bound by the contract until she started the work.

Which of the following is true regarding Nate's statement that he did not have to pay the emergency room charges?

He is incorrect because there was a binding implied contract.

He is correct. No contract was formed between Nate and the hospital.

He is partially correct in that because a quasi$-$contract existed, he would have to pay; but he would only have to pay fair market value, not what the hospital requested.

He is incorrect because there was a bilateral, express contract.
