New NFHS mechanic question

Might sound like a stupid question, but here goes anyway. Does the trail (soon to be lead) mirror the chop signal of the lead (soon to be trail) after all made FT's? The official's manual (OM)...

Actually, I have a rather good idea of what incidental means. Maybe not illustrated by my choice of words on my OP. I'll be more careful when posting in the future. You guys are tough.
