Ethan purchases a house for $250,000. He borrows $200,000 from StarCross Bank and gives the bank a mortgage on the house for this amount. StarCross Bank fails to record the mortgage. Ethan then applies to borrow $200,000 from Pentalon Bank. Pentalon Bank reviews the real estate recordings and finds no mortgage recorded against the property, so it lends Ethan $200,000.

A. StarCross Bank can foreclose because they made the first loan.
B. Pentalon Bank can foreclose because they made a record of the mortgage.
C. The collateral has to be returned to Ethan since there is a violation of the recording statute.
D. None of the parties involved can claim ownership of the collateral as it passes into the public domain
