A Surprise for Minnie

"**A Surprise for Minnie**" is the second episode of the first season of *Mickey Mouse Clubhouse*. It originally aired on Playhouse Disney on May 6th, 2006 and on Disney Junior on February 14th, 2011.

## Synopsis

Mickey forgets it's Valentine's Day: Minnie's favorite holiday and he and Donald make a card for her and Daisy.

## Plot

The episode begins in the Clubhouse with Mickey greeting the viewers as Goofy runs in giving the mouse a Happy Valentine's Day gift. Mickey realizes he forgot that today is Valentine's Day and hastily gives Goofy an old boot for a gift, which he enthusiastically accepts. Mickey then remembers that Valentine's Day is Minnie's favorite holiday. He then decides to make a gift for Minnie as he goes to the Mousekedoer to pick up his Mouseketools: a pump, a box of crayons, a rose, and the Mystery Mouseketool.

Mickey heads over the Arts and Crafts Area and Donald soon arrives, also wanting to help Mickey make a gift for Minnie. Mickey calls Toodles for the box of crayons so he can make a card for Minnie. Donald also makes a card. Mickey and Donald then go to the roof to find Minnie, and use the telescope to find Minnie hanging out with Daisy and Pluto near the fountain at the Flower Garden. Mickey and Donald then head to the garage so Mickey can drive his car to the Garden. However, along the way, Mickey's car gets a flat tire. Mickey searches the car for the spare tire but finds nothing useful. Mickey then calls Toodles for the pump so he can re-inflate the tire.

Mickey and Donald arrive at the Garden but Pete stops them from entering, demanding a fee of 5 petals from each of them. Mickey calls Toodles for the rose and gives Pete all 10 rose petals, allowing himself and Donald entry. Mickey gives Minnie his card but Daisy starts to feel disappointed that Donald also forgot about Valentine's Day. Mickey secretly calls Toodles one last time for the Mystery Mouseketool: a ribbon. He makes a bow out of the ribbon and slides it to Donald, allowing the duck to give Daisy a Valentine's Day gift. Goofy comes crashing in and spills his Valentine's Day cards everywhere. Everyone then returns to the Clubhouse and does the Hot Dog Dance. The episode ends with everyone exiting the Clubhouse as it disappears and Mickey waving goodbye to the viewers.
