Homer received this letter on December 23, 2008. Later that day, one of The Orchids' executives telephoned Homer and said, "Sorry, we're revoking our acceptance of your December 15 offer, the current financial situation just isn't right for that kind of spending". Homer responded by saying, "You're too late.
