Merge Node Weirdness?

Describe the problem/error/question

I’m experiencing MERGE node weirdness. As shown in my picture below. Basically once the final merge node has an “input 2” (after some items pass through the first IF node before perplexity step) then “input 1” on the MERGE node within the true branch of that first IF node (in the serper dev section), my workflow just ends. I can’t figure it out.

What is the error message (if any)?

Please share your workflow

The last step to run before it ends is the 4 items being passed into the middle MERGE node in the serp dev section of the true branch of the first IF node.

Please help! Whoever solves is freaking legend. Thank you so much in advance.

Can you show the Merge Node with pinned data? (see example)
More than likely, one of your inputs is NULL

Also, you can force the Merge Node process input to output. Use Always Output Data, in Merge Node settings.
