I need help on this please…

I named frame 1 “Start”.  
The AS on Start is:  
stop ();

I have a button on “Start” and  
the AS of the button is:  
on (release) {  
play ();  
}

This action invokes frame 2.  
The AS for frame 2 is:  
stop ();

On frame 2 I have a movie clip.  
At the last frame of the MC I have this AS:  
stop ();  
gotoAndStop (“Start”);  
The dialog box reads:  
(current scene - Frame Label - Start)

The button works. When the MC plays instead of going back to the “Start” frame it goes to the 1st frame of the MC.

How can I get the playhead to be sent back to the “Start” frame?
