When I fill the array literal with object literals the arrays no longer pass the first test. What's wrong here?

I used the following code to pass the second part of this question only to be confronted with the problem that the object literals do not cause the array literal not to pass. The instructions say that I should put the objects inside of the array. What am I missing? Is my code off? Am I not formatting the objects correctly? Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

var objects = [ var object1 = {love: 50, loss: 25}, var object2 = {health: "Nope", health2: 34}, var object3 = {demon: [12, 14, 13, 2], demongate: venus}, ];

Thanks

script.js 
var objects = [ 

];
index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
  <meta charset="utf-8">
  <title>JavaScript Objects</title>
</head>
<body>
<script src="script.js"></script>
</body>
</html>

You don't need the "var objectn =" part inside the array brackets, and you have an extra comma after the last object. Also in the last object you have "demongate: venus" that will look for a variable named venus you haven't declared yet.

Hi,

the expected solution is like the below one. You have added an equal to sign which wont be required. And few syntax errors. Can you go through the video again and try the challenge again.

var objects = [ {ques:'aa',
                 ans:'bb'} , 
               {ques:'cc',
                ans:'dd'} , 
               {ques:'ee',
                ans:'ff'} ];

var objects = [
  {
    "firstName":"John",
    "lastName":"Doe"
  },
  {
    "age":24,
    "sex":"M"
  },
  {
    "petName":"Fido",
    "school":"Treehouse"
  }
];
