Hi, Erik Luo. You are doing great. You are just missing the last 1 % of it. You also need to set it if the start_movie equals to N ,you need to call out the sys.exit().

let me get you a hint first.

Answer=("You are a newbit?type Y or y").lower()
#Whether upper case Y or lower case y you type ,the var "Answer" always equals to lower case y that line of code is using a lower case function".lower()".

Hi Erik!

Since it says, if the input the user gives is anything other than "n" or "N" to print "Enjoy the show", try:

if start_movie == "n" or start_movie == "N":
    sys.exit()

          ```
Then use the else to print the string "Enjoy......"
