'''Visuals:''' There is a {{color|gray}}, lifeless THX logo. Tex the robot, from the previous trailer, drops down from the top of the screen, and shows the viewer a cow-in-a-can toy. He flips it over, but the mooing sound is very faint, and he shrugs. He flies to the THX logo in the background, opens the same hatch in the "X" as his previous trailer, and then pulls out a cable from it. He then returns with the can and holds the cable up with his opposite hand, revealing it to have a plug, and plugs it into the can. Tex flips the can again and more realistic mooing sounds were heard, as the THX logo turns {{color|silver}} and starts to rise up from the middle of the screen to its usual position nearly at the top and shines. Tex smiles and nods when suddenly the THX logo begins to rumble and shake, as if a stampede of cows were heard. Tex sees this, jumps back in surprise, and he nervously flies off with the can and the plug. The cable causes the logo to jolt to its left side for a moment before the plug disconnects from the can, putting the logo back to its normal position. The cable is pulled back into the logo, the hatch closes, and like the last trailer, the black screen with the text "The Audience is Listening" and a copyright info under it falls to the screen, as one last moo plays.

'''Audio Variant:''' On some <u>earlier home video releases</u> that feature this trailer (like the aforementioned ''Monsters, Inc''. VHS, ''Toy Story 2'' Ultimate Toy Box DVD and the version on the ''Made in Point Richmond'' DVD, as well as both versions on the discs from the second and third editions of ''DVD Demystified''), the logo is slightly louder, and more mooing sounds are added in, and the moo noise heard at the end is heard later.

'''Availability:'''  Seen in THX-certified theaters for some time, though for how long remains a mystery. It debuted likely in front of ''Alien Resurrection'', as the logo debuted on Thanksgiving weekend (in the U.S.) of that year according to several THX demo discs. The Lucasfilm byline variant can be seen on various THX-certified DVDs from 2000 to 2005, mostly on films from Pixar (such as ''Toy Story 2'', ''Monsters, Inc.'', ''Toy Story 10th Anniversary Edition'', and ''Finding Nemo'') and Fox (such as ''Speed 2'' and ''The Day The Earth Stood Still''), as well as THX Demo discs, the DVDs that came with second-edition and third-edition copies of the book ''DVD Demystified'' by Jim Taylor, and even the VHS of ''Monsters, Inc.'', although Disney Channel's original print of the film plastered this with the VHS version of Broadway instead, possibly due to time compression. The remastered variant without a Lucasfilm byline debuted in the US on ''Star Wars: Clone Wars Volume Two'' on December 6, 2005. (internationally, it debuted on ''Toy Story 2 Special Edition'' on November 28, 2005) A variant is also on the ''Lair'' video game for PS3. This was also seen online as well. This trailer also appears in the Pixar employees only ''Made in Point Richmond'' DVD along with the Tex logo. It was also seen on the French (2 disc) Ultimate Edition DVD release of ''The Transporter (Le Transporteur)'' and the Japanese DVD releases of ''Waterboys (ウォーターボーイズ)'', ''Check it Out, Yo!! (チェケラッチョ!!)'', and ''Swing Girls (スウィングガールズ)''.
