Karl plays the above while Dallas harmonises playing the same but a string higher, (high A). Then both guitars play:

                                         (This is the same rhythm as previous '5,7,8' and '5,7\' alternative ending...)

Repeat this riff but on the second time the final note '8' isn't played and the 7 slides out downwards.

The final note on this section is a pinch harmonic and the 5 and 3 before it are palm muted 4th notes.

While Dallas plays the above Karl plays this; learn the above and rhythm of the below should become obvious however, note the picking rhythm is the same, but you pick while sliding up so to make it clearer I wrote it out like this:
