    Ehm, I don't know if you can use _root in that context.

    I'm a novice at flash myself, but I would use 4 frames on the main timeline:

    In the first frame of the movieclip you want to play first, put in the script _root.finished = false

    In the last frame of that movieclip, write _root.finished

    The main timeline:
    Frame 1: Here you put the movieclip that you want to play.

    Frame 2: extend the movieclip (F5, no black dot!)

    Frame 3: extend it to this frame. Use the code if (_root.finished = true) {gotoAndPlay(4) } else { gotoAndPlay(2)

    Frame 4: rest of the movie.
