Gerard, a neighbor, sees what is happening and runs to help Wally, pushing him out of the way of the falling branch. Unfortunately Gerard is injured when the base of the branch hits him. Is Thomas liable, in negligence, to Wally?
 
  a. Yes, because Thomas was not careful when cutting down the tree.
  b. Yes, because Gerard was injured.
  c. No, because Wally was not injured.
