I know I saw my keys somewhere, but whatever.

• Put the ellipsis after "somewhere" replacing "but whatever."
• Put the ellipsis after "keys".
• Put the ellipsis before the sentence.
• The ellipsis is already there.

Are the ellipses in the right places?

• no ellipsis needed
• the sentence is too short for it to have an ellipesis
• no, it needs one more before the sentences
• yes the sentence is fine
