I'm not sure what you mean by "restore in the value", can you elaborate a bit on the question?

But I can tell you that the challenges are very picky about following the instructions regarding output strings, and I see yours has "what" (with a lower-case "w") but the challenge asked you to use "What" (with a capital "W"). So if you're trying to pass task 2 of the challenge, that's the issue.
