Am I understanding the question Clearly?

What am I doing wrong?

// I have setup a java.io.Console object for you named console
String firstName= "jaimee";
console.printf("Hello my name is %s\n", firstName);

Sorry, I'm completely confused, I have watched the video over and over and I do not see an extra F, where is it?

Jaimee,
