Final Answer : E, Explanation :  Zeb's delusions about being from another planet do not necessarily impact his capacity to understand and engage in contracts. The key factor is whether he understands the nature and obligations of the contract, which, based on the information provided, he does. His regret over the financial comparison does not invalidate the contract.
