Hi Anna,

That caught me out too! If you read the challenge again you'll see it actually says.

Important: In each task of this code challenge, the code you write should be added to the code from the previous task.

So the code should be:

var players = ['Jim', 'Shawna', 'Andrew', 'Lora', 'Aimee', 'Nick'];

console.log(players[0]);
console.log(players[5]);

Hope that helps,

Dave.
