Premiere Subsequences/Nested Scenes NOT Staying Together

Hey! First time posted to the community, so hoping I can find some help. Up until about a week ago my subsequences worked fine, but now no matter what I do they won't remain consolidated into one clip. I often like to use multicam editing so making a subsequence is ideal for that. but now everytime I drag my subsequence to the timeline, it drops the contents of the subsequence rather than the consolidated clip. I've tried doing some digging and it just seems like too niche of a question to find an answer for. 

 

I've attached a few images. 1 being the Nested scene I'm trying to edit, 2 being the contents that drop onto the timeline when I try to add my Subsequences/Nest scenes

 

Anybody got me on this one?

He is referring to the "nest or not" icon there third from the left. Right below the timecode.

Please click the 3rd tool at the top of the toolbar and then try dragging your nested sequence back into the timeline.

Not sure which tool you're referring to. If you mean the "Linked Selection" Tool or one of the options under the "Ripple Edit" Tool. But I tried both and no luck. Let me know which tool you meant if I'm misunderstanding
