Right. The server did item (c), but did so after fumbling the ball, chasing it into the court, and returning to the service area. Does any of the "fumbla, chase, return" action affect anything?
I didn't think so, so I didn't call anything (well, except the re-serve), but I thought it was worth discussing here.
