Master won't update to other pages

[AmericanoPlease]

Project file is attached. 

I added merge fields for the month, year, and weekly quote to the master page titled "Weekly Spread DOTS". However, this addition does not show up in the pages to which the same master is applied. 

I even copied and pasted the master to an entirely new project file and the same thing happens. 

Even when I go ahead and generate the data, the month, year, and weekly data are not visible. 

I've been working on this thing for the past 3 hours and my brain is fried. What am I missing?

I didn't see anything suspicious in the few pages I consulted.

Would you verify that "Preview with record" is well ticked in the Data Merge Manager's Preview section?

I don't have much Data Merge experience, but in the Tutorials I have viewed, and in my experiments, the Data Merge fields usually go on a Document Page, not on a Master Page. I'm not sure how it would work with the fields on a Master Page. Nor how it would work if you're revising a Master Page that has already been applied to the document pages.
