Match Characters that Occur Zero or More Times - why are the secondary tests failing?

Tell us what’s happening:
I’m not sure why these tests are failing:

Your regex should not match any characters in "He made a fair move. Screaming about it can't help you."

Your regex should not match any characters in "Let him have it. It's not wise to upset a Wookiee."

If I use console.log with the above tests swapped into chewieQuote I don’t see any matches in the console…
Your code so far


let chewieQuote = "Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrgh!";
let chewieRegex = /A*a*/; // Change this line
let result = chewieQuote.match(chewieRegex);
console.log(result);

let chewieQuote = “Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrgh!”;

let chewieRegex = /Aa*/; // Change this line

let result = chewieQuote.match(chewieRegex);

You are matching A zero or more times and a zero or more times, so you are actually matching everything, you need to be more specific
