After the third bounce, the blob flies towards the screen as the text "'''''NICKELODEON'''''" appears on it and it continues to wave, as the words "{{color|orange|'''A'''}}" and "{{color|orange|'''PRODUCTION'''}}" appear letter-by-letter in orange. In the lower right corner, 4 translucent orange rings pulse out as the blob stops waving, becomes 2D, and changes its shape before cutting to the show. | ||

The middle letters bounce a bit. A copyright byline (in the same font as "{{color|gold|'''PRODUCTIONS'''}}") sometimes appears below. | ||
