Can you describe more specifically what you want to do ?
You can probably use animate() with overlay() and adjust the opacity parameter
Alternatively you can control using layer luma matte layer that controls the opacity (you're using a mask that controls the opacity of a layer. White = 100% visible, Black = 0 % visible, shades in between are intermediate)

Actually, at this first scene, I don't want to do a cross-fade, just fade out the first scene then go right into the second although I may want to do crossfades later - i'm just doing it as I go along and deciding as I go. I think if I could figure out how to do the fadeout, doing a fade in would use the same method in reverse.
I'd never messed with fadein / fadeout before - I never imagined doing it between scenes would be this complicated. I'll look into overlay.
EDIT: Actually, this convoluted mess seems to work
blah1=Animate(4900,4950,"Levels", 0,1,255,0,255, 0,1,255,0,0)
ReplaceFramesSimple(last, blah1, mappings="[4900 4950]")
