I have this rather complicated construction:

myFormatsFrame.paragraphs[0].characters[0].pageItems[0].textFrames.item('PriceFrame1').parentStory

And according to the Debugger, the result is: [object Story],[object Story],[object Story], [object Story]

I don't understand how this can be.

At least if I go for item(0) of that lot, I get the story I want, so I'm not stymied by this peculiar result, but I am puzzled.
