Hi Peter,

Remove the quotation marks around firstword.

I tried and got the response off "something isn't right with your code." :(

The following code passed for me.

<script>
      var spareWords = ["The","chimney","sweep's","dog"];
      var saying = ["quick", "brown", "fox", "jumps", "over", "the", "lazy"];
      var firstWord = spareWords.shift();
      var lastWord = spareWords.pop();
      saying.unshift(firstWord);
      saying.push(lastWord);
    </script>

I switched from Google Chrome to FireFox and it worked perfectly. Tried it again with Google and still didn't work. Who cares, I finally passed that exercise. Thanks Jeff. It was driving me mad. :)
