Mickey's Steam-Roller

Mickey's Steam-Roller is a Mickey Mouse cartoon that was released on June 16, 1934. It is notably the first animated appearance of Mickey's nephews, Morty and Ferdie Fieldmouse.
==Synopsis==
While streetworker Mickey romances Minnie, Mickey's nephews Morty and Ferdie take control of his steamroller and it's full speed ahead on a very destructive ride.
==Plot==
Mickey is driving his steamroller through town and Minnie and Morty and Ferdie arrive to meet him. Morty and Ferdie fight leading to Minnie scolding them, telling the two to get along with each other. Morty and Ferdie then kiss each other on the cheek and Minnie walks off. The boys then start fighting again until they see Mickey and Minnie, Morty, and Ferdie say hello to him. Mickey attaches a hook to the boys' stroller while he helps Minnie get in the steamroller.
Mickey offers Minnie some heart-shaped candy and gives her one that reads, "I Love You". Mickey offers Minnie another one that reads "Kiss Me", much to her shock. Mickey tries to kiss her, but she sprays him with water from a fountain. Meanwhile, Morty and Ferdie leave their stroller and hop onto the steamroller. Morty then puts on Mickey's conductor hat and gloves while Ferdie tries to make the steamroller go but he gets sprayed with ink and pushes back by air.
After Ferdie accidentally helps Morty activate the steamroller, Mickey and Minnie see them controlling it and they both lay flat on the ground, so the boys don't run over them. Mickey and Minnie then rush to go after the train and Minnie brings Morty and Ferdie's stroller with them. Morty is having fun riding the steamroller while a whistle shoots Ferdie into the air. Ferdie hops on some black smoke clouds from one of the steamroller's smokestacks, closes the firebox door, and then whacks a flame with a spade. Mickey uses a rope to catch the steamroller's hook and ties the rope to a lamppost, but it gets pulled away, pulling other lampposts away as well.
Ferde goes over to reach Mickey, but when he puts the rope on fire with a match, the rope snaps, and Ferdie runs back to the steamroller. The wild steamroller chase continues until Morty and Ferdie controlling the steamroller start chasing Mickey. Mickey hops into a trolley, but the steamroller destroys it. Mickey runs to hide in a hotel, but the steamroller knocks the building over, exposing four people taking a shower. The short ends with Morty and Ferdie riding on Mickey like a seesaw.
