Hey guys I was wondering if someone could guide me along the right path to answer this question?

script.js 
// Display the prompt dialogue while the value assigned to `secret` is not equal to "sesame"
let secret = prompt("What is the secret password?");
  do {
    secret = prompt("What is the secret password?");
  } while ( secret !== 'Mickey mouse');
// This should run after the loop is done executing
alert("You know the secret password. Welcome!");

The instructions say that the loop should run "until the user types 'sesame' ".

But this code is looking for 'Mickey mouse' instead.
