Incorrect premise.

The episode titles would be:

01. Bargaining Part 1
02. Bargaining Part 2

This will automatically solve your credits problem.

If it really is just an overlong episode the title would be

01. Bargaining

with 2 writing credits.

Since I don't own the set in question, could you please post some screenshots, so that I can see what you mean?

Ahhh,

I see what you mean.

Title:
01. Bargaining Part 1 & 2
(even though this doesn't really mirror the original airing sequence)

For the writing credits I'd use 2 Group-Dividers in the writing section only.

Very unusual setup though, especially if they really removed the opening credits from the 2nd  and the end-credits from the 1st part.
Having a "Double" as season-startup is not that unusual, but normally the DVD-releases list those (correctly) as 2 episodes.

I did exactly this when I re-audited the Buffy season sets last year. I also used the group divider to separate the writing credits.

It's not too too rare but still uncommon. Mad Men Season 5 & 6 both feature their two part premieres edited together with a single set of credits as well, with the title listed as "Episode Title, Part 1 & 2" in the menu. I suppose it's sometimes done if the episodes actually aired back-to-back as a special premiere event, as I know these episodes of Buffy and Mad Men did.

What "crew teams" would be represented by these two group dividers?

I would say just list both writers in order of appearance in the credits.

I debated its use as well, but I figured since the episode cared enough to make the distinction, and we had the capability to allow for it, why not? As for what "crew teams" are being represented, I guess it'd be the Part 1 writing team and the Part 2 writing team.

The team of "Marti Noxon" and the team of "David Fury"?

A crew team is not required in this case as it could be argued that this falls under the TV Show episodes portion of the rule.

A crew team does not exist in this case, which is why we shouldn't be considering using group dividers in the crew listing.

Well, each writer is part of a team that works on an episode. Regardless of who's name is on the script, there are story editors, executive producers, and other members of the writer's room who all contribute to the crafting of an episode's script. Yes, I'm stretching it. 

Agree with Tim... that is how I would do it as well.
