Pen Tool dragging our Bezier's

-

i going round , round on trying mask something. set mask , when try use bezier handles (yes bezier box checked) crap shoot if bezier's going show or going move whole mask. know takes finesse.

let me ask this? use "v" key before trying select vertice pull out handles or leave on pen "g"? 've tried use shift so... , hit , miss. tried "alt" / v,  or break vertices goes n forth between two. have used ctrl (win) try , them  respond. please if tell me proper steps adjust vertice after mask set.

madening tell you. thanks
