Visuals: On a gradient background, a blue line starts at the top middle of the screen, moves left, and curves down to the middle to make a stylized "C", it stays in the middle briefly and then, when it gets to the right side of the screen, it curves back up to the top middle, where it stays for a split second before turning downward and going through the earlier line, making a stylized "CP" design. "Serif" appears on top and "Serif" appears on the bottom, both in the blue color of the stylized "CP", and after a couple of seconds, "Serif" fades-in below in white. This logo stays on screen through the last bars of the Parker Lewis closing theme as Parker (Corin Nemec) says "Mr. Lewis? Mr. Randall? Mr. Phillips? Hellooooo!".
