That's madness – and will look like a format/spelling error on our part. That's specifically why I said the language should be: I don't mind changing between the words episode and part, as appropriate. But the numerical designation should be in lower case and followed by "of Serial Name" so that there is no necessity to follow the on-screen title cards. Note that this a big enough problem, anyway, since there are times when the title cards have it in ALL CAPS, Title Case, and simply using numerals. Given that these day pages will undoubtedly have serials from various eras on the same page, we want it to look like ordinary, consistent English usage. Switching between part and episode will look like simple variation of word choice to the uninitiated, but switching between case usage, or between numerals and words, will just seem like we have a lack of editorial will.
 * Episode/Part one of Serial Name

We have chosen to to go with Sentence case in headers, so the logical extension is that we formulate our sentences in a way that sentence case is confirmed.

It is not correct — ever — to say "Part Two" in an ordinary sentence because we write in English, not German. Equally "Season 3" should actually be "season 3", but people get lazy with autosuggest, I suppose.
