Star, who played the lead role in a television soap opera, was seriously injured in an automobile accident caused by Danton's negligent driving. As a consequence of Star's injury, the television series was canceled, and Penn, a supporting actor, was laid off. In an action against Danton, can Penn recover for his loss of income attributable to the accident? 
Yes, because Danton's negligence was the cause in fact of Penn's loss.  Yes, unless Penn failed to take reasonable measures to mitigate his loss.  No, unless Danton should have foreseen that by injuring Star he would cause harm to Penn.  No, because Danton's liability does not extend to economic loss to Penn that arises solely from physical harm to Star.
