Joann makes doll clothing and Jesse makes custom glue in his basement. Joann wants to buy some of Jesse's glue. Joann visits Jesse and says she needs a glue that will work on fabric. Jesse sells her a tube of Super Special Glue, but it does not work on fabric at all. Does Joann have a warranty claim?

A) Yes, an implied warranty of fitness for a particular purpose.
B) Yes, an express warranty.
C) No, because Jesse is not a merchant.
D) No, because Jesse couldn't possibly know if the glue would work on fabric.
