encontar vs encontarse

!No me encuentro/no encuentro   las llaves del coche! is the test item.

The correct answer is reported to be no encuentro.  
Encontrarse is said to be used when "surprised to discover something".  I interpreted the exclamation marks as indicating surprise at discovering I was unable to find the keys.  I was probably overthinking it, ?verdad?
