I don't pretend to understand what you're trying to do entirely but wouldn't getting to [gamma] be as easy as removing the "esle" statement just before it. This way if the length of "s" is greater than 2 then either [alpha] or [betta] would be executed and then [gamma] would be executed regardless. Is this what you want?
