I like to give out best answers! Please answer this question in a helpfull way and then I will give you a best answer!

If you haven't done so already, make the fullName method an anonymous function. If you've done this step already you can "Check Work". Why do I not pass that. It says now that task 1 is no longer passing, but why?

object.js 
var contact = {
  fullName : function() {
  var firstName = "Andrew";
  var lastName = "Chalkley";
  console.log(firstName + " " + lastName);
    };
};

Almost perfect, you've just got an extra semi-colon (the second to last semi-colon in your code, at the end of the function block).

Delete that and you're good to go.

Edit to add: The reason it says task 1 no longer passing is because the syntax error you've introduced means that the code isn't executed properly. Task 1 no longer passing usually means this in Treehouse challenges, although not all the time.
