Parented text layer with null object

Hi, 

I've been following a tutorial trying to create a retro style film look. So far I've created a text layer that I've parented with a null object and added a wiggle expresssion on the null object. After that I created another null object which I parented with the already existing null object. After doing this my text layer won't show in the composisiton. None of the layer's are hidden and I'm trying to figure out what I've done wrong. 

 

In the image down below you will see what I've done so far in my timeline.  Any suggestion on what I've done wrong?

The confusing UI design got you. You haven't parented anything, you have assigned track mattes. Pay attention to the column headings...
