They had to purchase a new fan .They had to get a new fan for their apartment .They had fixed their broken fan .None of the above choices .
What may be a fact about the person speaking ?
Today I asked Josh if we had a socket wrench . He showed me how to actually use one , and together we detached the whole fan mechanism , reattached the screw , put the whole thing back together , and voila ! The fan works like new . Our apartment is cooler , and the peasants rejoiced .
