* AnvilOnHead: Mickey accidentally pulls on a rope which brings an anvil down on Pete's head.
* ConstructionZoneCalamity: Mickey has the variation where a girder always swings into place just in time to catch him as he's walking distractedly along while staring at Minnie.
* DistractedByTheSexy: Mickey can't take his eyes off of Minnie when she shows up, which is why he keeps almost stepping off girders to his death, only for a new girder to be lowered/swung into place just in time to save him.
