"INK" has a bottom white gradient. A split-second before the logo ends, a hammer swings down and smashes the bottle, causing the ink to spread everywhere, including covering up the whole screen.

October 2001-2002: None.

February-May 2002: An odd, three-note piano tune composed by Mark Snow.

-'''Nicknames:''' "Orange-Red Ink", "Ink Bottle Gets the Banhammer", "'''SPLAT!!'''"
-'''Logo:''' In an office setting, at the forefront, a bottle filled with {{color|orangered|orange red}} ink labeled:

-<big>{{color|gold|'''GOUGH'''}}</big><br><big>{{color|gold|'''INK'''}}</big></center><br>
-in an Impact font, with the bottom half of "INK" colored {{color|silver}}. After a while, a hammer (which, if you look very closely, can be seen in the reflection on the bottle) falls down on top of it and smashes the {{color|orangered|orange red}} ink bottle that causes it to fly everywhere and cover up the screen.

-*Early 2002: An odd, short piano tune with an eerie sound effect is played in the background before the bottle breaking sound.

+'''Audio:''' It varies, but they usually end with a glass breaking sound.
-'''Availability:''' First seen on the short-lived show ''The Strip''. Also seen on ''Smallville'' and the 2011 version of ''Charlie's Angels''. Don't expect this on the company's films, though.

-'''Editor's Note:''' While the sound of the bottle breaking can be startling for some people (especially the version without music where it breaks with no warning, which could be jarring to many people), some people may find this logo funny, and it may be favored for fans of ''Smallville''.
