I think you need to write your script in the JavaScript file (the second tab in the challenge) to pass the second part of the challenge. You correctly linked to the shout.js file in task 1, and you simply need to add the alert statement within the JavaScript file itself.
However, it would actually be valid to write JavaScript inside <script> tags in the html markup:
<body>
<script>
alert("I DID IT");
</script>
</body>

You completed task 1 correctly by adding
<script src="shout.js"></script>
inside of the body tags on index.html
To complete task 2 you were asked to add an alert that said "I DID IT!" to the shout.js file. All you need to do is click on the "shout.js" tab and add the alert.
Let me know if you need help writing the alert.
