URL, Data, Callback.

I am getting a Syntax error, which is a parse error here. I am afraid to go back and look the previous video for fear of losing my place in these exercises. Anyone have any ideas?

app.js 
$.get("footer.html", function(response));
index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
  <meta charset="utf-8">
  <title>AJAX with JavaScript</title>
</head>
<body>
  <div id="main">
    <h1>AJAX with jQuery</h1>
  </div>
  <div id="footer"></div>
  <script src="jquery.js"></script>
  <script src="app.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
