Why am I getting error "Vectors must be the same length" although they are of same length?

1 vue (au cours des 30 derniers jours)
I am trying to plot a X,Y graph. I am getting an error "Vectors must be the same length", although I see in the workspace that they are of the same length. It is working for most of the trials in the table, but throwing an error for some entries. What could be the problem? I have attached the table. Here is my code for the plot.
plot(subject_data.xcoordinates2{subject_data.trialname == 'Trial40'}, ...
subject_data.ycoordinates2{subject_data.trialname == 'Trial40'});
The error is as follows.
Error using plot
Vectors must be the same length.

Before the plot command, insert
size(subject_data.xcoordinates2{subject_data.trialname == 'Trial40'})
size(subject_data.ycoordinates2{subject_data.trialname == 'Trial40'})
What do you get as output ?

It said too many input arguments. Anyway, I got help to identify the problem. Thanks for your comment.

% There are 2 Trial40's in the table:
find(subject_data.trialname == 'Trial40')
ans = 2×1
1 80
% To plot both, you can collect the x- and y-coordinates in a cell array like this:
args = { ...
subject_data.xcoordinates2{subject_data.trialname == 'Trial40'} ...
subject_data.ycoordinates2{subject_data.trialname == 'Trial40'}}
args = 1×4 cell array
{281×1 double} {270×1 double} {281×1 double} {270×1 double}
% but they are in order [x1 x2 y1 y2], so you have to make them [x1 y1 x2 y2]:
args = args([1:2:end 2:2:end])
args = 1×4 cell array
{281×1 double} {281×1 double} {270×1 double} {270×1 double}
% and then send them to plot() in that order:
plot(args{:});

Thanks for looking at the data and your insight. I had no idea that there was dulicate data. However, I believe this occurance is rare. I want to bypass it by just accessing the 1st occurance of 'Trial40'. (I know there will be error, but I have loads of data. So it should not affect much) How do I plot just the first one?

Nevermind, I can use @David Hill 's response for the workaround. Thank you!

You have two 'Trial40'
plot(subject_data.xcoordinates2{find(subject_data.trialname == 'Trial40',1)}, ...
subject_data.ycoordinates2{find(subject_data.trialname == 'Trial40',1)});
plot(subject_data.xcoordinates2{find(subject_data.trialname == 'Trial40',1,'last')}, ...
subject_data.ycoordinates2{find(subject_data.trialname == 'Trial40',1,'last')});

Thanks for looking at the data and your insight. I had no idea that there was dulicate data. This solution works for me.

Again, sorry I couldn't accept both answers. :(
