i'm new to after effects, and im trying to animate eye blinking. but whenever i try to open the bottom lashes after the blink with my puppet pins, the bottom lashes somehow create a double and i have one double stuck closed and opening like normal. it doesnt do this with the layer for top lashes, just the bottom? i restarted after effects too, and it still does the same.

I'm not sure what the eyes are supposed to look like because you only have a screenshot of the last keyframe. Did you copy the first keyframe for the blink and paste it as the last keyframe? Have you tried different Puppet Pin settings? The best way to diagnose this kind of problem is to solo the layer and make sure you are viewing the mesh.
Also, in the future, please don't use the "Drag & Drop or..." area to share images. It's buggy and inefficient. Just drag them to the reply field on the forum or use the toolbar to embed them. It might help if we saw the screenshots with the problem layer soloed and all modified properties showing (press 'uu') that show all 3 keyframes (positions) for the lashes.

thank you for letting me know about sharing images, but i tried what you said and turned off viewing for the other layers, it turned out i did copy and paste the wrong thing and it just stood there. i'm sorry for wasting your time on my mistake, but thank you so much for helping me!
