Continue with wall 3, omitting steps 33-36. On wall 4, add two stomps (right then left) to the end of the wall after step 36. Then continue dance as scripted.
However, if danced to any other standard phrased 4/4 piece of music (e.g., Maria by Ricky Martin) then omit steps 33-36 making the dance a standard 32 step dance
