Answer to Question 1

Students should discuss assignment of benefits, which is what Cage did when he made a promise of the proceeds to her. The students might also raise whether the promise had to be in writing. Absent some specific state statutes on lottery split arrangements, the agreement does not fit into any of the Statute of Frauds requirements. The students might also discuss whether the shop server was an incidental beneficiary or credit or donee beneficiary in the relationship.

Answer to Question 2

B

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.
