After (30) – previously (11c) – has been uttered, the monitor appears to
have been active again. The very specific version of the latest temporal sat-
ellite is relaxed somewhat in the last contribution to the current act, (11d),
now renumbered as (34).

For this speech act, which we interpret as an alternative for the com-
plete time satellite we give only the RL update. Syntactic expansion
proceeds again from the top node, via a third SAT node. The final result in
the Config of Node 1 is as in (35).

This terminates the Act, the Move and our discussion of the integration
of the FDG model and our dynamic model of the expression rules.
