why does $(".warning").hide().show() fail on task #3 in challenge? task 3 doesn't specifically say to pass "slow"

so the above code should pass w/o having to fail then being prompted to pass "slow" to .show()

possibly question was worded wrong? or is "slow" always passed to .show()?

It says lets show the content slowly means. You've to pass 'slow' parameter on .show();

Slow is only passed to show() if you include that as the (optional!) option. Without it, it shows immediately. Your code should be $(".warning").hide().show("slow");
