As a Moments subpage, all spoilers are unmarked as per policy. You Have Been Warned.


  • In "Tokyo Go", Mickey's job as a live steam train conductor is a reference to Walt Disney's Carolwood Pacific Railroad, which implies a "Like Father, Like Son" vibe.
  • "Potatoland": Donald beginning to blame the entire plan on Mickey, but then admitting that he wanted to make Goofy's dream come true too. Goofy happily accepts their apology and tells them he isn't mad at all, saying their friendship is more valuable than his dream.
  • Daisy, Scrooge, Ludwig, Huey, Dewey and Louie bundling up to bring Donald down south in "Duck the Halls." Also, adorable, watching Huey, Dewey and Louie waddle out to the car in their big coats.
  • The lovely little melody Mickey plays on his ukulele in "Ku'u Lei Melody". The ending takes it up to eleven when he not only completes the song, he finishes it off by singing it in a duet with Minnie in Hawaiian!
  • In "Split Decision," after Donald has all his anger sapped out of him and becomes a Mellow Fellow, when Mickey brings up Daisy, Donald immediately starts gushing and cooing over how much he loooves her. Considering their relationship thus far was shown to be turbulent at best, it's actually really sweet.
  • Pretty much the entirety of "The Birthday Song" as it centers around Minnie trying to write a birthday song for Mickey, but some highlights include:
    • After Minnie shoves Mickey out of the room so he doesn't find out the surprise, he quickly peeks his head back in to tell her he loves her and the two exchange a quick little kiss. The innocence in the scene is what makes it even more adorable.
    • The birthday song itself is just the cutest thing ever. And Mickey's goofy clapping once the song just adds to it, especially because of how funny the moment is as well.
  • Mickey, Minnie, Goofy and Pluto are just so happy that Donald will be joining them for Christmas in Duck The Halls, and they immediately drop everything to get Donald to warmer climes once they realize he's sick, even stealing Santa's sleigh!
    • Meanwhile, Donald's family (and Professor von Drake) is prepared to leave their tropical migration and head back to the cold weather, which is not duck-friendly, to save Donald themselves!
  • Mickey allowing Pete to join him, Donald and Goofy in swimming in the new swimming hole at the end of "Swimmin' Hole".
  • It's brief, but at one point during 'Halloween Spooktacular', Huey refers to Mickey as 'Uncle Mickey'.
  • Nearly everything in "Surprise!" is extremely sweet: from Mickey's friend's understanding his dislike for surprises, them wanting to make a big cake to symbolize their love for him and everyone, even Pete, chipping in to make a colossal cake, Mickey overcoming his fears to save his friends, and the party working out with everyone (and everything) wishing Mickey a happy birthday!.
  • "Carried Away" is an incredibly sweet short involving Minnie singing a song for Mickey and the mouse protecting his girlfriend when their boat goes off track. The best part is at the end where the seemingly oblivious Minnie reveals she noticed all of Mickey's heroics and intends to sing her song again for him. The short has since carried on more resonance as it aired almost a week before Russi Taylor passed away.
  • Minnie's sad tone of voice in Wish Upon a Coin when she says "I tripped on a dwarf." Russi Taylor made that line sound adorable.
  • "Panda-monium":
    • Mickey's Squee reaction to seeing the baby panda for the first time.
    • The ending. After falling into the panda exhibit, Mickey gets two black eyes while chasing the baby panda. An adorable, Gentle Giant mother panda mistakes Mickey for a baby panda, gives him a bonnet and a pacifier, and starts cradling him. Even though it's technically a Downer Ending because Mickey didn't get the photo he wanted, it's still oddly cute.
