Kto przyszedł?

Who Came?

A doorbell farce built on motion prefixes: guests arrive, leave, come back and go out for pączki — and nobody knows who is actually home.

You will practice: Prefixed motion verbs in the past: przyszedł, wyszedł, poszła, wróciła, wszedł — the comings and goings that tell every story.
