You're welcome!

Opening the group at the end of the first line has the effect of
replacing the empty command and its implied p; see sam's man page
under `Miscellany'. This also explains why your lines, without the
grouping, had the desired effect when you executed them one by one
yourself, but not when executed from a script.
