13 hrs confidence: 
| did they come back? Would they come back? Explanation: If the whole thing is referring to the past (have they been back since the first visit) then it’s fine. But it could also possibly mean "would you come back again?" Difficult to tell from the context. |

peer agreement (net): +7| did they come back? did they come back? Explanation: Why assume the writer made an error? Unless this question is in the past tense, the following "How often?" would be unanswerable. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 18 hrs (2020-01-15 14:25:28 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- @Asker No, I think Francisco is quite wrong and his use of the word "frantic" is completely inappropriate. |
