      Sounds an awful lot like detrimental reliance to me…

      Why is this getting downvoted?

      Detrimental reliance is the legal principle that would allow the bakery to recover damages from Tesla. In summary: “You promised to pay me for this, and I acted accordingly, but you didn’t follow through, so pay up.”
