if it was a movieclip before, change it back.  if it's a symbol that would explain the (or part of the) problem.

 

with a symbol you need enough main timeline frames to display the symbol's animation.  ie, if the symbol has 10 frames and is place on the main timeline's frame 2, you need 9 frames after frame 2 on that main timeline.

 

movieclip's don't need that.  they'll play from start to end (and repeat) if they're on one main tmeline frame.

maybe the seal's graphic symbol and/or maybe there's no stop() on the 2nd frame of the main timeline.

I converted it to a graphic symbol, what should it be? frame 2 has stop().
