membership.py has bug

My code is below:

time = 15

store_open = None store_hours = [9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18] if time in store_hours: store_open = True else time not in store_hours: store_open = False

What is the problem with this code?

Error message says syntax error on line 13 but there is no line 13? It would be useful if you posted the solutions. Obviously you have them ready as you have it programmed. This seems to be a glaring and easily fixed problem with Treehouse in general.

membership.py 
time = 15

store_open = None
store_hours = [9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18]
if time in store_hours:
    store_open = True
else time not in store_hours:
    store_open = False

You are close.. else statement cant have statement. Remove the statement and use just 'else'..
