I'm guessing you're on task 2, where the instructions say "Use the appropriate console method to print out the details object." But the appropriate message to print out an object is "dir" instead of "log".

And the instructions also say "Important: In each task of this code challenge, the code you write should be added to the code from the previous task.", so the statement for task 1 should still be there (but is missing from this code).
