GE9X TAPS3 Combustor

According to the GE video, the new TAPS 3 combustion liner has no air dilution holes like previous generation combustors. So how does it get the film of cooling and dilution air into the combustor to control the EGT at the nozzle guide vanes.

In the old style can type combustion liners (j75) there is a small scoop that takes air form the inner can to the outer can. Does anyone know what that is for?
