Don't understand proof of equivalence of weak solutions to parabolic PDE

(Crossposted from MSE due to no replies)

I'm trying to understand the proof that (c) implies (a) here in the following proposition (here, $\mathcal{V} = L^2(0,T;V)$). See the very last line in the image for that part: $$$$

enter image description here $$$$ I give here Proposition 1.1 which the proof uses. $$$$ enter image description here

I do not understand how it's used in the proof. I'd appreciate an explanation. Thank you.


Here, $$W_2(0,T) = \{u \in \mathcal V : u' \in \mathcal V'\}$$ and enter image description here
