'''Visuals:''' We see a shot of a purplish floor with black horizontal lines against a space sky. Two stars shoot out toward us and a white wireframe grid turns upward toward the ground. A third star sweeps across the screen from the right, and the words "SYME" zoom forth and shine with a ping on the S. "HOME" and "VIDEO" then folds out from under it as the grid disappears. | '''Visuals:''' We see a shot of a purplish floor with black horizontal lines against a space sky.
