Masking help

Can one of you experts tell me what I am doing wrong?

Simple, so I thought. I want track 2 to mask track3 ONLY (that's why I have parent/child set up) so track 4 shows. The result at this moment is that track 2 is masking everything below not just the children. What am I doing wrong? Click here

You have both 2 and 3 as children of 1. Try making 2 be the parent of 3 instead of a child track. That may help. The way you have it now track 1 is probably masking 4.

Track 1 is the MASTER parent. This fades everything in.

Yes, but as Chienworks points out, you probably want the track above acting as a parent too.
Think like track 1 is grandfather, track 2 is father, track 3 is a child.
Make sense?
