Default Strat Vid 2- user problem

Philip, Somewhere around 00:15:20 on video 2 there is something that is throwing me off.
You are finishing patching the back side of the strat on the bottom and it looks to me like it ends with 2 tri polys on each side.
Then you hit tab for sub patch mode and I didn't see that you got the error message you should get when trying to sub patch anything other than a quad, which tells me I'm loosing my vision or my mind. I though about just adding another knife in there, but you didn't do it on the tutorial and I want to stay on track here.
Can somebody please clear this up so I can eat, sleep, and perform other bodily functions regularly again?

oh, Tris subpatch pretty well... they are only to avoid in curved areas. That's why I make sure they are in flat areas...
