Mk 11:14b ... And were listening the disciples of him.

The fourth phrase has these 5 narrator words, ... Kai ēkouon hoi mathētai autou (And were listening the disciples of him).

The 5 narrator words are bottom up. The words "kai ēkouon hoi mathētai" (and were listening the disciples) are tangent to the ears of the disciples. The word "autou" (of him) is tangent to Jesus. The diagram shows the disciples in the previous diagram have heard the curse Jesus put on the fig tree. These trees are reknown for their long lifespans. If this tree would immediately die from the curse it would be a miracle attested to by the witnesses. The miracle will come to pass in verse 11:20, in less than 24 hours, six verses from now.
