Hi,
We have begun discussing the laws of gifts.
If Robert says to Sam, "I am giving you Todd's house as gift," and Todd agrees and even confirms this with a physical act signifying his acquiescence, the gift is still non-binding for both Robert and Todd.
This is because Robert's words are non-binding, as are all verbal gifts; Todd's confirmation was simply a confirmation of empty words.
(Code of Jewish Law Choshen Mishpat 241:1; Meirat Einayim 241:5)
Have a great day,
Mordechai
