Play only some part of the motion tween

hy guys,

Im trying to make 1 animation in my backgound when the menu buttons are pressed… I want that the background movieclip raise to a 2x scale and then change the color…

My question is… can i play only some part of the motion that is in the movieclip…

I know this commands…
background_mc.gotoAndStop(3);
background_mc.gotoAndPlay(3);

isnt there a way to play background_mc movieclip from frame 4 to frame 8 only?
