Benjamin Harris well, you could've fooled me because your logic is really solid! The problem here, is that you're returning the result before you're meaning to which means it doesn't get to the end of that for loop. If you move the return to line up with your for, it passes with flying colors! Note: this is a challenge that trips up many, but you seem to have gotten it barring one indentation anomaly.

Hope this helps! :sparkles:
