Your code is surprisingly well. However, Python is picky about indentation, so Python thinks that you didn't put any code in the if statement's block because you didn't indent the line of code that says break. If you add four more spaces before break, it should pass.

Passing code:

:warning: Please read the above before copying-and-pasting this.

def loopy(items):
    # Code goes here
    for item in items:
        if item ==  "STOP":
            break
        print(item)

Good luck!

I hope this helps.
