I don't know what the engine does to the code...the code might be 
"compiled" (I use that term loosely) down, where evaluated code isn't.

Hrm...can you abstract each little script enough to make little commands?

on appearFlower
    set the loc of image "flower" to 400,401
    set the height of image "flower" to 150
    set the width of image "flower" to 150
end appearFlower

in frame 30:
   appearFlower
