on (release) {
blank1.attachMovie("mc");
}

YOu have to right click on your movie clip you want attached in the library and go into its linkage properties. Click the checkbox that says “Export For Actionscript”, then in the name field, give it the name “mc” (no quotes).

As long as you don’t have a stop action on Frame 1 of that movie clip it will play, so no need for a gotoAndPlay(1) action.
