I'm pretty sure i"m reading this completely wrong, but i'm confused as to what it is asking

some guidance would be awesome. I"m trying to add scope to a variable called someNumber with a value between one and five. Is this a range where I have to do math.random(), or is it me picking one number or am i completely off track?

app.js 
angular.module('foobar', [])
.controller("coolCtrl",function($scope){
  var someNumber = $scope.value(4);
});

This is what you're looking for 

angular.module('foobar', [])
       .controller('coolCtrl', function($scope){
        $scope.someNumber = 4;
})

Why did you remove the final semicolon?

Deanna O'Neal, it shouldn't be an issue for this challenge, but it is good practice to use semi-colons to prevent errors. Didn't notice I removed it. Thanks for catching that!
