add a handler that will close the dialog and "send" it right before  
you "Answer XYZ"
This will ONLY work with this technique!

Like:

on mouseUp
  put the seconds into TempoIniziale
   ControlloTempo
   send "close_the_dialog" to me in 2 secs
   ## or any other time...
   answer "You are great" with "OK"
end mouseUp

on close_the_dialog
   close stack "Answer Dialog"
end close_the_dialog
...

You will have to integrate this into your scripts.
