How do I retrieve a value using local storage? (SOLVED)

I stripped some code down to just the basics and it appears that "On get" isn't working and I have no idea why. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I have added the LocalStorage object to my project and it has a key called "date" with the value "2" (I have verified this in debug)

This is the code that isn't working:

System: On start of layout - LocalStorage Get item "date"

LocalStorage: On item "date" get - txt_test Set text to "Got the item"

LocalStorage: On error - txt_test Set text to "Error"

Unfortunately, txt_test never updates. It won't even show me an error. What am I doing wrong?
