IIRC, as they were descending with the stick back, the airspeed was less than 60, which is where the 'Bus cuts off the stall warning. Twice, again IIRC, they pushed the nose down, airspeed rose above 60 and the stall warning started, making the PF think he'd done the wrong thing, so he pulled back again to silence the alarm.
