First, remove print. It's just asking you to assign a variable. Second, read the question again. I made the same mistake the first time. You variable should contain "Treehouse loves someone". P.S. You may find this helpful in the future.. Kenneth's challenges can be challenging. I find it helpful to run them in my own terminal to get a better error description that "Bummer". In this case it worked, then I saw I had the variables reversed.
