• 
• 

Visuals: On a black background, there is a rabbit with a target as a torso jump towards the bottom of the screen. It then jumps and pauses in mid-air. It then lands on the ground, and repeats, this time from the first landing point. When it lands for the third time, "k i l l e r" appears below the rabbit. It then jumps to the left and disappears off-screen. We then see it jump down from the right side. When it lands this time, however, the word "f i l m s" appears below. The rabbit jumps again, and then the logo fades.

Variants:

• Most of the time, the logo is still with the rabbit on top of "f i l m s".
• An animated short version appeared on This American Life, cut down to the last few seconds.

Technique: Cel animation.

Audio: None. The ending theme of the show for the short version.

Availability: It first appeared at the end credits of The Safety of Objects. The animated version is seen on some films such as Then She Found Me.
