Baggage and paperwork vocabulary & dative reflexive verbs and sentence structure: mir etwas anziehen, mir etwas kaufen, mir etwas leihen.

Paul arrives at the train station in Westerland on the island of Sylt. He loses his backpack and unsuccessfully tries to get help in the lost-and-found office. He is desperate because the garage opener is in it, and he needs it to find Fritz's garage. He wants to give up, but then it occurs to him: Without his garage opener, Fritz has to park outside. In that case, Paul would be able to see his red BMW parked outside. Paul's mother calls, but the cell phone reception is poor on the island. She already tried to call him three times today. He tells her that he is looking for Fritz and the book on Sylt. She says she just wanted to tell him that she is proud of him for telling Grandpa the truth. Then the call is dropped due to bad reception. Paul sees a red BMW, but it's not Fritz’s car. He borrows an e-scooter to look for him. Will Paul be able to find Fritz without the garage opener by looking for his red BMW parked outside? Or has Fritz found a way to park inside his garage, making Paul's search pointless?
