About this episode

Use cool words like a teenager & temporal prepositions: im, am, um.

Paul is at Fritz's apartment. He finds a letter from his landlord and a garage door opener with a broken sticker. He recognizes that it belongs to Fritz. The opener works, but the garage door won't open. The door may be broken. Suddenly strangers from Fritz's apartment talk to him through the window: They’re renting his apartment temporarily. Fritz has gone surfing. But they don't know where. Where is Fritz? Where are the surf spots in the area? What’s up with the garage door opener?
