Daniel demands a counter offer but Greg doesn’t respond so Daniel says ‘I’m Out. Mark and Barbara go out next followed by Lori.
Four sharks are out and the couple still waiting for Mr. Wonderful to make his move.
After a while, Mr. Wonderful made his offer, a $1 million investment for 4% equity plus $5 per item sold as a royalty until the sum reached $ 2 million.

Daniel was the first one to steal the deal but Greg was not so impressed by his offer so the consent was void.
