The "h" preceding said text is still and fades in, becoming white.

The background crossfades to white whereas the butterflies transform into a tri-colored pink hibiscus flower with a long stem. Five black seeds surround the tip of the stem. After the color change in the background, the water puddle containing the flower's reflection disappears. Then, multiple petals in the same color palettes as the ones shown beforehand fly around with the three in the background joining along. From here, they reveal a pen stroke stylized, interconnected "Hi" with the company name "Hibiscusfilm. " underneath.
