LIPEZ, Circuit Judge.
This case involves a failed real-estate transaction, the defendants’ refusal to return a $100,000 deposit given by the plaintiffs for an option to buy a valuable Puerto Rico beach-front property owned by the defendants, and the plaintiffs’ lawsuit for breach of contract. On summary judgment, the district court awarded the $100,000 deposit to the defendants.' The plaintiffs appealed. We reverse and remand for a trial because of the ambiguity of the agreement between the parties.
