Keynote Extra Items Appearing in Build Order

I am using keynote 6.6... on this particular slide I have 4 bullets, 1 video, and 1 image...however when I go to animate and then look in the build order it seems to double the number of bullets. In the picture below I have no clue what #2 and #4 are, the only difference between #1 and #2 is that #2 says that it will occur "after build 1". Any ideas what these extra items are, are they needed, can I delete them and if so how do I? Thank you very much!!

MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch,Early 2015), OS X El Capitan (10.11)

The extra entry in the builds list is caused by adding a blank line to the bottom of the text box (by pressing the return key), the second entry has no text showing because its a blank line. Keynote interprets the blank line as a paragraph and actions a separate build.

You will need to remove the blank line from the text box, deleting the entry in the builds list will remove the text box and will not be displayed.
