Answer:

cannot sue John for the extra $250 asJohn made the promise to him based on past consideration.

Explanation:

When Gerald was helping John build the garage, there was no agreement between them on payment for services. After the two weeks John made the promise to pay Gerald.

This is not a binding promise as John is paying Gerald at his own discretion as a past consideration, since no contract was agreed between them.
