You have the general idea. Please fix the following:

  • The if should reference self.name not self.
  • The return should be indented more to be inside the if code block.
  • The format argument should be self.name instead of name
  • Delete all the Thief class code. It is not a part of this challenge

Post back if you need more help. Good luck!!
