Kai and the banner

Read the story first, then answer.

You won a prize!Kai was watching frog videos with his dog Biscuit when a banner full of confetti said, "You won a prize! Tap to claim it now!" A timer began to tick: claim in one minute. "Hurry, hurry!" cried Kai, and he tapped the banner. Then it asked him to type his password so the prize could be sent. His fingers reached for the keys. Biscuit pushed his wet nose against the screen, and Kai burst out laughing. In the quiet he began to think. "I only share my password with my family," he thought. "I never entered a contest, so why the big rush?" He typed nothing, closed the banner and told Dad. "You just beat a trickster!" said Dad. "Am I in trouble?" asked Kai. "Never," said Dad.
