+# Explain the value of "this"
+
+In the code above we intend to call `user.go()` method 4 times in a row.
+
+But calls `(1)` and `(2)` works differently from `(3)` and `(4)`. Why?
+
+```js run no-beautify
+let obj, method;
+
+obj = {
+  go: function() { alert(this); }
+};
+
+obj.go();               // (1) [object Object]
+
+(obj.go)();             // (2) [object Object]
+
+(method = obj.go)();    // (3) undefined
+
+(obj.go || obj.stop)(); // (4) undefined
+```
