Then it shows sequences of people with the words "we", "you" and "all". Then it shows a man with a note on the other half saying "qui?". Then it shows the news ident with the logo. Then the weather report, noted with a °C, followed by several live-action sequences. After it we see singers with on the other halves words such as "do", "si" and "la". After it a running man with only the words "publi" and "cit" shown. Then sports while the word "top" and "chrono" gets shown. After it it is followed by more live-action before devolving into more random sequences with even more random symbols (such as " ").
