Bash: Preventing part of script from running as sudo

I have a script that calls several other script and I run the script as sudo sudo ./main_script.sh

main_script.sh

#! /bin/bash
set -e

. /scritp1.sh
. /scritp2.sh
. /scritp3.sh
. /scritp4.sh

Is there any way to prevent one of the subscripts from running as sudo? (ie. scripts 1 2 and 4 run as sudo and script 3 run as normal)

This should achieve what you expected :

#! /bin/bash
set -e

. /scritp1.sh
. /scritp2.sh
sudo -u $SUDO_USER bash /scritp3.sh
. /scritp4.sh
