About this episode

Understand an article in a tabloid newspaper & fusion of prepositions and articles: am, beim, im, vom, zum, zur, ins.

Paul checks the Whatsapp group to learn about Fritz. He thinks Meili might find something on Fritz' Facebook. He reads on a news app about an accident at the Oktoberfest. A lot of police are needed there. Laura explains that that's the reason why she has no time during the next few days. Fortunately, she's not ghosting him again. His mom invites him for coffee to discuss his "career plans," so he decides to figure them out first. Will Paul's parents find out that he has no career plans at all? Can his friends uncover information about Fritz?
