@CHARACTER moves to layer X Error

I can’t figure out what’s wrong with my code. Maybe someone can tell me what my mistake is?

AIDEN (flannel shirt in the image below) is supposed to cross behind the MANAGER to sit in the chair at screen left. In the image below, you can see what he is doing instead. In the error box, it says “WARNINGS: @CHARACTER moves to layer X”

INT. CHINESE RESTAURANT OL - DAY
@zoom on 317 480 to 126% in 0
@MANAGER spot 1.250 255 18 in zone 1
@AIDEN spot 1.250 100 63 in zone 2
@AIDEN moves to layer -1
@MANAGER moves to layer 2
@MANAGER faces right
@speechbubble is 139 130 to 100% with tail_top_right

You're 18 recently too, right? Look out, World!
Well, come now! Sit, sit!

Try changing “moves” to “walks”.
