The ostrich then yells "OH NO!", and then puts his head into the ground and a blue metallic Civil Defense logo circle drops down from the sky, shaking the entire screen. The circle has a white triangle and inside the triangle is the red abbreviation letters "CD" (standing for "civil defense"). At the beginning, the "CHAPMAN/DIAL" text in white fades in below.
