You almost got it, but you are using the index function in the opposite way it is intended.
To retrieve an item from a list at a certain index, you'd use square brackets. Example:
my_list[0] # will return the item at index 0.
my_list.index('a') # will search for 'a' in my_list and return whatever index position it is at.
Good luck.
