[No opening sequence plays in this episode. Instead, a black screen with handwritten text at the bottom which reads: "CW (content warning): Volume/harsh noise/flashing images". While it appears, a harsh and resonant windy ambience can be heard. Beginning of minisode 1.] 	[No opening sequence plays in this episode.

[Cut to: Amateur handheld camcorder footage of some windows in the very early morning. They are placed behind the wall of a shower, along with a shelf with some bottles of shampoo and a soap dispenser. The footage is faded and desaturated. The eerie tone is still heard but in a different pitch.] 	[Cut to: Amateur handheld camcorder footage of some windows in the very early morning.

[The camera pans away from the shower wall to a dark corridor with a scribbled black figure drawn over top of the footage, that is barely detectable. The camera tilts towards the floor, and a faint light turns on showing the silhouette of another window. A stronger light suddenly turns on, the eerie noise cuts out, and we see a black skateboard lying sideways on the floor. The person holding the camera comes closer to the skateboard and moves their hand to grab it, but the noise resumes (harsher this time). Visual black dirt covers the screen, with a giant X flashing over it in red, blue, black and purple. The X is redrawn every time the color changes.

[Cut to: Dark Shi's bedroom, where she is sleeping in her bed. The background is more crudely drawn than normal. We see a poster of a rock musician with the words "Death World!" in red, a picture of her and Berrycream Frosting, her black backpack hanging on the wall, and a poster of the school she goes to. Dark Shi wakes up from her sleep fully clothed in her regular attire.] 	[Cut to: Dark Shi's bedroom, where she is sleeping in her bed. The background is more crudely drawn than normal.

Dark Shi 	Oh.
[A beat. Cut to title card. The title card is a black screen with faint white handwritten text, which reads: "Dark Shi - Half-House". Some dots are placed randomly across the screen.] 	[A beat.

[Cut to: Real-life camcorder footage of a lightly cloudy sky. A plane is heard in the distance. Cut to: the shower from before, but this time it is better lit and some parts of it have been drawn over to make it look more like a cartoon environment. The song "Calloused" by Title Fight is heard, and it's coming from elsewhere in Dark Shi's bathroom.] 	[Cut to: Real-life camcorder footage of a lightly cloudy sky. A plane is heard in the distance.

[Cut to her in front of the bathroom mirror, staring at it before making her hair messy for a bit. She looks at the camera, which cuts to her messy bedroom in a reverse shot. The skateboard from before is now hanging on her wall besides the school poster (which, from this angle, we see that it has the word "Reminder:" on it). The music comes to a slow stop. Suddenly a CD case falls onto the floor and makes a noise which gets Dark Shi's attention. The CD has the cover art for the album "OMOIDE IN MY HEAD 1" by Number Girl. Dark Shi picks it up and looks at it, then looks away. She holds for a very long pause. She opens the door in front of her. A light fills the screen with a lightly warbling sine wave. A voice can be faintly heard.]	[Cut to her in front of the bathroom mirror, staring at it before making her hair messy for a bit.

Berrycream Frosting 	Just waiting for Dark Shi. Oh! There-
[Dark Shi closes the door, cutting off Berrycream and the noise. She turns away from it and lays with her back against it in the fetal position. Berrycream is still waiting.] 	[Dark Shi closes the door, cutting off Berrycream and the noise. She turns away from it and lays with her back against it in the fetal position.

Berrycream Frosting 	(muffled) Dark Shi?
[A bass hit briefly blows out the sound, making the image noisy. Dark Shi immediately covers her ears.] 	[A bass hit briefly blows out the sound, making the image noisy. Dark Shi immediately covers her ears.]
[Cut to: A faintly lit camcorder shot of a room, this time with no drawings over it. We see a white door, with the reflection of another door over itself and the wall. We hear computer synth notes played at random.] 	[Cut to: A faintly lit camcorder shot of a room, this time with no drawings over it.
