I need help with character laying down

I’m trying to have my character lay down but they don’t appear past the scene change. Here is that code.
INT. YOUR BED - NIGHT
@pan to zone 3 in 0
@NADIA changes into Nadia PJ
&NADIA spot 1.3 -300 350 in zone 3 THEN NADIA faces right AND NADIA starts sleep_lay_uncomfortable_loop
&NADIA moves to layer 2
&SASHA spot 1.3 -300 350 in zone 1 THEN SASHA faces right AND SASHA starts idle
&SASHA moves to layer 2
@transition fade in black in 1
#beatends
#beatstarts
&NADIA starts idle_lay_awake_rubeyes_loop
Did I do something wrong or is it an obvious issue that I’m not seeing?

The order is wrong. Write it like this:

@NADIA changes into Nadia PJ
INT. YOUR BED - NIGHT
&NADIA spot 1.3 -300 350 in zone 3 at layer 2 AND NADIA faces right AND NADIA is sleep_lay_uncomfortable_loop
&SASHA spot 1.3 -300 350 in zone 1 at layer 2 AND SASHA faces right AND SASHA is idle
@transition fade in black in 1
@pan to zone 3 in 0
#beatends
#beatstarts
&NADIA starts idle_lay_awake_rubeyes_loop

Laying down changes their spot on the screen.
