13	A sapient microphone who co-hosts the House of Mouse.
14	----
15	* AsideComment: Mike's effective audience is the real-life audience, even though it is pretended that he addresses the fictional guests.
16	* AnimateInanimateObject: Unusual for the Duck-Mouse setting, but fits the setting of more than a few guests. Mike's also not the only living object that's part of the staff.
17	* ExcitedKidsShowHost: Type Informative Over Sixes Host.
18	* PunnyName: Coupled with AlliterativeName. He's a mike named Mike.

30	* BigBlackout: The blackout's limited to the House of Mouse, but it's awfully big compared to the small battery powering it all. The blackout occurs because Pete takes out the battery in an effort to sabotage the show.
31	* MoonLogicPuzzle: How does the staff recharge the battery after he's been left without support? By ''[[VisualPun charging]]'' him, [[TheCavalry weapons, trumpet, and banner in hand]].

43	* BeleagueredAssistant: He is this to Horace.
44	* RunningGag: The joke where Horace is ordered to "Hit it!" and then physically slams the equipment with a tool first occurs in ''"The Stolen Cartoons"''. ''"Pete's House Of Villains"'' changes it up by putting the Big Bad Wolf in Horace's seat and him blowing at the DVD player to get it going. The DVD player is confused, but not in pain this time.

55	* AnimateInanimateObject: Unusual for the Duck-Mouse setting, but fits the setting of more than a few guests. Thermostat's also not the only living object that's part of the staff.
56	* GagNose: It's the knob in the center, red and round. It breaks open when Thermostat realizes he can't repay Pete.
57	* MoonLogicPuzzle: Pete tries to sabotage the House of Mouse by messing with the club's air conditioning. To break Thermostat, he demands the ten bucks back the equipment owes him. Thermostat's got only five on him, meaning [[BrokeEpisode he's now broke]].

64	-> Voiced by: Creator/{{Jim Cummings\|1952}}
65
66	Three monkeys tasked with keeping the show acceptable for children.
67	----
68	* BreakingTheFourthWall: Almost all of the humor surrounding them breaking the fourth wall in some manner, usually in regards to cartoon violence. In ''"The Three Caballeros"'', there's ProductPlacement joke where they can't endorse ''Donald Duck'' merchandise to be sold on the show (referencing real-world laws against product placement in children's television). Donald's lawyer at the time argues it's not Donald Duck merchandise but ''The Duck Formerly Known as Donald'' merchandise. After some discussion, they consider that acceptable, much to Mickey's incredulity.
69	* JerkassHasAPoint: The ProductPlacement thing on the show was probably the only time they made real sense given Disney's rep regarding merchandise and the cash cow. However, they were convinced by Donald's weasel lawyer.
70	* MonkeyMoralityPose: The Censor Monkey are based on the Three Wise Monkeys, which in their case symbolizes their refusal to watch or listen to material deemed too violent. The "speak no evil" monkey simply never talks.
71	* OutOfFocus:
72	** They were present in the second and third episode, but disappeared after that. Their last appearance ended on an ImOkay after they got [[AnvilOnHead another safe on them]].
73	** Speak No Evil in particular appears to only be there to complete the MonkeyMoralityPose, as he contributes little to their arguments.
74	* TakeThat: Whatever happened behind the scenes that inspired the Censor Monkeys must have been something, because "mean-spirited" is too light a word to use for their first appearance. They stop the short ''"Donald's Charmed Date"'' because it's too violent and without consequences. They want Donald to wear a helmet and pillows and for the sound effects to be replaced by comical ones. At that last demand, [[AnvilOnHead a safe falls on the trio while making a comical sound]] and Mickey [[AsideComment turns to the audience]] to ask, "Was that comical enough?" with one of the most sadistic faces ever drawn on him. Even their "Censor Monkeys" moniker sounds like a nasty nickname the production team must've had for the [[ExecutiveMeddling meddling executives]].

79	[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/house_of_mouse_dennis_the_duck.png]]
80	[[AC:First appearance: ''"Dennis the Duck"'', 2002]]
81	-> Voiced by: Creator/JeffBennett
82
83	A 1930s-styled duck. He runs the Donald Duck Fan Club.
84	----
85	* CatchPhrase: "Have a Sandwich!", which is uttered before shoving a sandwich in the addressee's face or otherwise hitting them with one.
86	* EveryoneHasStandards: Of a sort. As much as Dennis likes to pelt people with sandwiches (especially Donald Duck), he dislikes it when people pelt ''themselves''.
87	* {{Hammerspace}}: Dennis always has a sandwich stored somewhere on him.
88	* ImYourBiggestFan: He is this to Donald Duck, being his fan club's "president, vice president, treasurer, and only member", but Donald wanted nothing to with him at first. Dennis broke down when Donald told him he didn't think he's funny, eventually [[InterruptedSuicide opting for suicide]] over the BrokenPedestal. Donald, by this time, realized his error and saved Dennis. Well, Dennis technically succeeded in committing suicide by erasing himself, so [[BreakingTheFourthWall Donald drew him back in]]. He even learned to appreciate Dennis's brand of humor... [[HypocriticalHumor when it's done onto others]] and the two became friends.
89	* InformedSpecies: While he does have webbed feet and short tail feathers, Dennis barely resembles a duck.
90	* RememberTheNewGuy: He's created for the show but in-universe he's treated as a well-known and popular Golden Age-cartoon star.
91	* {{Retraux}}: He's a 2000s character drawn as if he's from the 1930s.

100	A female clone of Ludwig Von Drake.
101	----
102	* DitzyGenius: Appears to be just like Ludwig in this regard.
103	* EinsteinHair: A light version, but still recognizable from the fountain-like shape on top.
104	* NoNameGiven: As can be gathered from the header, no name is given for her.
105	* OppositeSexClone: She's a female clone of and by Ludwig Von Drake. [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded by her first words on the show]]:
106	--> '''Clone:''' "[[BorrowedCatchphrase Hello, 'dere.]] I'm a woman!"
107	* OtherMeAnnoysMe: Far more from Ludwig's side because his clone [[FinishingEachOthersSentences likes to explain as much as he does]] and he knows what it was like before he had to share the spotlight. She, however, is the one to break up when [[InsufferableGenius Ludwig refuses to make room for her genius]], much to Ludwig's astonishment (and heartbreak).

123
124	A sapient snowman living in a cave.
125	----
126	* DarkHorseVictory: Accidentally won the snowman competition instead of Huey, Dewey, and Louie, who were troubled by Donald's unintentional yet repeated destruction of their entry creation.
127	* ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin: "Abominable Snowman" evokes BigfootSasquatchAndYeti. He's not. He's an actual snowman.
128	* MatchlightDangerRevelation: Donald already saw his eyes, but not the rest until he lighted a match.
129	* {{Snowlems}}: The friendly version, although he at first seemed to be the killer version. Thing is that Donald entered his cave when there was a clear "Do Not Disturb" sign outside, so of course he was cranky. His mood improved when he accidentally won the snowman competition with himself and got a few nice ice skates out of it.

137
138	The owner of the Sub Shop.
139	----
140	* NoNameGiven: He's only referred to as "the Admiral".
141	* PunnyName: The store is called the Sub Shop because it sells sandwiches and because it is shaped like a submarine.
142	* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: He bellows his instructions when he hands his store over to Goofy, Mickey, and Donald for a day's work, but he compliments them when they've done a good job.
143	* RetiredBadass: Implied. He's not in the navy anymore if he runs the Sub Shop, but he's got all the behaviors of someone who has military expertise.
144	* WarmHeartedWalrus: He's a walrus and a kind soul, although it takes a little for that latter trait to be clear.

149	[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mickey_mouse_works_bert.png]]
150	[[AC:First appearance: ''"Mickey's New Car"'', 1999]]
151
152	A lazy staff member at the Ajax Gas Station.
153	----
154	* {{Expy}}: Specifically his role in ''"Mickey's New Car"'' evokes Maurice from Disney's ''{{WesternAnimation/Marsupilami}}'' adaptation. The only noteworthy difference is that Bert does not do [[GrossoutShow anything gross]] like the earlier ape.
155	* LazyBum: Overlaps with TheStoic in that ''nothing'' is interesting enough to get him to go through the effort of a reaction. The only time he's seen performing any activity is when he's (disinterestedly) kiting with some friends in ''"Donald's Valentine Dollar"''.
156	* TheVoiceless: Implied to be talkative off-screen in ''"Mickey's New Car"'', but never says a word in the show.

159	[[folder: The Goat Man]]
160	!! The Goat Man

162	[[AC:First appearance: ''"Mickey and the Goat Man"'', 2002]]
163	-> Voiced by: Creator/CoreyBurton
164
165	A selfish collector who does not distinguish beteen objects and people.
166	----
167	* AbhorrentAdmirer: Platonically to Mortimer Mouse. He likes Mortimer as a performer, so he keeps him. Mortimer thought he'd be free to go if he entertained the Goat Man, which is half of why he emphasized Mickey's mistakes during the routine. Instead, Mickey's free to go.
168	* {{Bizarrchitecture}}: The Goat Man's house is a mishmash of parts.
169	* CatchPhrase: "I keep what I like!"
170	* CollectorOfTheStrange: As a reworking of ExtremeOmniGoat, the Goat Man collects everything. [[TheCollector That sometimes includes people]], which he refers to as "stuff" as well. The only limit on his collection is whether he likes an object/person or not.
171	* ObviouslyEvil: Between HornsOfVillainy, EvilIsBigger, and an [[TheIgor Igor-like]] build, the Goat Man is bad news at first sight.
172	* {{Retraux}}: He's a 2000s character drawn as if he's from the 1930s.
173	* YouNoTakeCandle: He talks this way. Additionally, his sentences barely flow from one to the other, making his overall message sound jumbled.

181
182	The host at the Rorschach Club, which may or may not be owned by the Phantom Blot. Either way, both club and host are best avoided.
183	----
184	* BadGuyBar: Implied to be what the Rorschach Club is, which explains the need for a host like that.
185	* BrutishBulls: He's a bull, he's big, he's threatening, and he can probably punch well [[DavidVersusGoliath when he's not tied up]].
186	* EvilIsBigger: His head is of greater size than Mickey's entire body!
187	* NoNameGiven: He is nameless.
188	* SecondFaceSmoke: Not smoke, but nose-breath for the same purpose of intimidation.
189	* ShadowOfImpendingDoom: The shadow he casts over Goofy, Donald, and Mickey is shown first. The next shot shows him properly.

196
197	A boy who kills insects to add to his collection.
198	----
199	* BugCatching: Not the kind that ever lets his prey go, though.
200	* EvilRedhead: Comes complete with YouthfulFreckles. He certainly takes a macabre delight in his hobby.
201	* KidsAreCruel: At least from the Goofys' perspective.
202	* NoNameGiven: As the short is ''Silly Symphony''-styled, no one speaks, so no name is attached to the boy.
203	* ParasolOfPain: He picks an umbrella to fight the Goofy that comes to free the king.
204	* ShoutOut: As ''"Dance of the Goofys"'' is an ode to ''WesternAnimation/{{Fantasia}}'', the boy's opening scene is inspired by Chernabog's.

211	-> Voiced by: Creator/JeffBennett
212
213	The owner of Jollyland and a regular judge in contests.
214	----
215	* BigFun: He's not a big as the trope usually goes for, but he's also far from thin.
216	* HighClassGlass: He has a monocle on his right eye.
217	* OneJudgeToRuleThemAll: Wherever Mr. Jollyland shows up as a judge, he is the one who makes the decision on who wins. Even if the winner is a monster, like ''"Donald on Ice"'', or a dog, like in ''"Mickey's Christmas Chaos"''. Notably, he always goes for a DarkHorseVictory.
218	* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: Either that or Jollyland is named after him. Which is less likely.

226
227	A stage magician who is friends with Mickey and Minnie.
228	----
229	* LovelyAssistant: He has two who probably are twins. NoNameGiven is in effect for them.
230	* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: Unless "Magical" would actually goes by his real name.
231	* PowerSource: A version of ClothesMakeTheSuperman in that his WhiteGloves are enchanted and necessary for him to perform his tricks. The gloves have a mind of their own and desire to be with him, doing all they can to find him as long as they aren't being worn by someone else.
232	* StageMagician: He is one, but he falls under MagiciansAreWizards because the magic of his gloves is real.
233	* UnfortunateItemSwap: Magical and Mickey bring their clothes to the same cleaner and inevitably their WhiteGloves got swapped. Mickey and Minnie have been invited to Magical's show and leave that evening. Magical's gloves are left in Mickey's rooms, from which they tried to escape but accidentally ended up on Pluto's paws. He gained functional hands from wearing them and access to their magic, which he immediately exploited. His downfall came when he performed a GloveSlap on Butch, thereby freeing one glove that quickly freed the other. Meanwhile, Magical's performance had been awful and he finally realized the gloves he was wearing weren't his (going so far as to recognize they were Mickey's). Before the break was over, though, his gloves came back to him and he could finish the show adequately.

253
254	The Reform Club is situated in London and only includes wealthy members.
255	----
256	* CanonForeigner: In a spin-off setting. All the characters in ''"Around the World in Eighty Days"'' are from prior Disney material and some specifically are their selves as they appeared in ''WesternAnimation/MickeysChristmasCarol''. The ostrich and the pelican are the sole new faces.
257	* {{Expy}}: Of the Reform Club as it appeared in ''Literature/AroundTheWorldInEightyDays''.
258	* HighClassGlass: The ostrich wears a monocle on his left eye and the pelican carries around a lorgnette.
259	* NoNameGiven: Neither of them are named.
260	* PelicanPackagePouch: Scrooge stuffs a newspaper with news he dislikes in the pelican's beak.
261	* WithFriendsLikeThese: They're friends with Scrooge and supportive of Mickey, but they don't act on either loyalty. At best they [[MoralityPet lightly berate]] Scrooge, but mostly they just tease him with Mickey's successes. They know of Scrooge's ulterior motive to claim Mickey's inheritance, but [[BystanderSyndrome they do nothing to help Mickey]].

268
269	A member of the seagull patrol that guide boats safely from and to the harbor.
270	----
271	* FurryConfusion: The seagulls are an organized part of the harbor and the patrol leader even wears some clothes, but they still qualify as animal-animals instead of people-animals.
272	* InvincibleIncompetent: The seagull that'd become Mickey's partner is this. Through his bumbling, he incapacitated the rest of the patrol thus leaving no one to go with Mickey but him. Troublesomely, he was [[IronicFear afraid of flying]]. Only when a heavy storm came up that threatened to smash Mickey against the rocks did he gather [[LetsGetDangerous the courage to head out]] and somehow managed to do a good job despite his inexperience and the dire circumstances. He lost his fear of flying after that and became a full member of the patrol.
273	* NonHumanSidekick: The seagulls are this to the boatsmen while they're at sea.
274	* SwallowedWhole: Done to the seagull by a shark. After traveling a bit through the RibcageStomach, the seagull unknowingly sat down on a keg filled with gunpowder and lit it with his lantern. The explosion allowed him to escape.

282
283	An educated bird with a signature gobble he owes his sizeable fanbase to.
284	----
285	* AnimatedActors: Got upgraded to this with the ''House of Mouse'' episode ''"House of Turkey"''. His character isn't intelligent, but he's cultured and hates to be confused for his character.
286	* EverythingTryingToKillYou: Many employees and guests try to kill the turkey in ''"House of Turkey"''. Gus Goose, the Big Bad Wolf, Gaston, Little Peter, the hyenas, and even the Beast stops to think of eating him. It becomes a RunningGag, literally, that the turkey tries to convince the staff he isn't safe while the staff dismisses his worries. Mickey is forced to acknowledge the problem when the carnivores and hunters in the audience turn on the other guests when it seems the turkey is out of reach.
287	* FurryConfusion Played straight in the ''Mickey Mouse Works'' short and accompanied by CarnivoreConfusion. Averted in the ''House of Mouse'' episode.
288	* PaperThinDisguise: Mickey as the turkey convinces a little. The turkey as Mickey, with Mickey's pants over his tail feathers, not so much.

299	* AbhorrentAdmirer: Tiki becomes this once Pluto decides [[BrosBeforeHoes he rather stays with Mickey than start anything with her]] and she refuses to acknowledge his "no".
300	* HugeGuyTinyGirl: Tiki's a small dog compared to Pluto; a trend with his girlfriends. She and Butch take over once he becomes her romantic interest.
301	* InnocentBlueEyes: Qualified until she didn't let Pluto go, although even then she's presented as silly instead of malicious.
302	* PairTheSpares: Tiki and Butch after Pluto manages to escape. The two knew each other before Pluto's involvement, but had no interest in each other at that time.
303	* SupermodelStrut: She's performing the canine version of a sashaying walk when Pluto first sees her, and he's immediately attracted to her.
304	* UptownGirl: Pluto had to outsmart Butch, the guard dog, before he could make it to Tiki's penthouse to reunite after meeting her when she was out walking with her owner.

316	* CuteKitten: Both in appearance and behavior towards Goofy.
317	* ThoroughlyMistakenIdentity: Due to a [[CoincidenceMagnet chain of coincidences]] but understandable from Goofy's perspective, he mistakes a mountain lion for Mr. Pettibone grown big and strong.

323	[[AC:First appearance: ''"Organ Donors"'', 1999]]
324	-> Voiced by: Matt Frewer
325
326	The owner of a toy factory who uses real organs in his creations.
327	----
328	* {{Expy}}: The Toymaker is likely based on Winslow Schott Jr., the Toyman of ''{{Franchise/Superman}}'' fame, as he first appeared in ''WesternAnimation/SupermanTheAnimatedSeries''. Overlaps with an AffectionateParody of both Victor Frankenstein and the Creature from ''{{Literature/Frankenstein}}'' and its movie spinoff ''Film/BrideOfFrankenstein''.
329	* FrankensteinsMonster: For starters, it's hard to tell what manner of creature the Toymaker is. He is most likely a {{Cyborg}}; his legs are mechanical and his face does not appear truly organic, but the exact balance of flesh and metal isn't clear. His legs, furthermore, are duck-like and he goes around pantless like Donald. His head, [[HybridMonster on the other hand]], is monkey-like. In the short, he seeks to take Mickey's heart and use it to bring his bride to live.
330	* ObviouslyEvil: His demand for an organ and blatant disappointment at being presented with the musical one, his TheHyena tendencies, and his factory that has no workers but him and is rather far removed from society should've tipped off the trio much sooner.
331	* OrganTheft: In his defense, when he called ''Organ Donors'' he thought he was going to get a heart legitimately. Turns out [[ExactWords the name refers]] to the [[OminousPipeOrgan musical instrument]] and then he might as well take the heart of one of the delivery boys to stay on schedule. Once Donald and Goofy tried to rescue Mickey, he decided he'd had use for all their organs. They escaped before he could harvest them.
332	* PygmalionPlot: He was supposed to be the Pygmalion.
333	* SupervillainLair: He owns a toy factory bordering on toy kingdom atop a hill.
334	* WickedToymaker: No toy weapons are seen in action, but his lair is toy-themed, his bride-to-be is a doll, and he himself seems to be part toy.
335	* WingdingEyes: He gets spiral eyes twice as a sign of high spirits. Once it's followed by an EyeColourChange to green.

341	[[AC:First appearance: ''"Organ Donors"'', 1999]]
342
343	The intended partner of the Toymaker, but he couldn't get a heart to complete her.
344	----
345	* BlushSticker: Hers are painted-on.
346	* CreepyDoll: She really doesn't look like she'd have a heart even if she'd get a heart.
347	* {{Expy}}: An AffectionateParody of the Bride from ''{{Literature/Frankenstein}}'' and its movie spinoff ''Film/BrideOfFrankenstein''. She's like the former in that she never does get brought to life, but like the latter in that she (reportedly; cut out) was to be finished with a heart donation.
348	* GracefulLadiesLikePurple: Whether she'd have liked the color is anyone's guess, but she looks elegant in it.
349	* PygmalionPlot: She was supposed to be the Galatea.

357
358	Shelby's overprotective mother.
359	----
360	* CatchPhrase: "Hey, Duck!", uttered to [[WesternAnimation/DonaldDuck her usual victim]].
361	* HairTriggerTemper: When you're on her good side, Mrs. Turtle is pleasant company who doesn't hide her admiration for good qualities and accomplishments. Unfortunately, it's much easier to be on her bad side.
362	* MamaBear: Towards Shelby and his siblings that may or may not exist. She's an [[{{Jerkass}} exaggeration]] in that her child is a BrattyHalfPint who delights in [[BadlyBatteredBabysitter the power her protection gives him]] and in that she herself always presumes the worst of people upon meeting them and prematurely threatens them to be on their best behavior.
363	* RemovableShell: She steps out of it in ''"Donald's Pool"''.
364	* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: Mother Time in ''"Babysitters"''.

371	-> Voiced by: Creator/JeffBennett
372
373	A young child that likes to create chaos.
374	----
375	* BrattyHalfPint: Shelby is solely concerned with doing what he wants, which often enough includes [[BadlyBatteredBabysitter purposely being a pain to look after]]. He knows he's protected by his mother's aggression set to unleash if he'd not be taken care of properly. Acting like a responsible adult therefore doesn't net results nearly as good as fighting fire with fire does. As happens in ''"Mickey vs. Shelby"'':
376	--> '''Mickey:''' "You're sure he won't get away?"
377	--> '''Donald:''' "I glued him to the stage."
378	* MassiveNumberedSiblings: Abandoned. As the punchline to the events of ''"Donald's Shell Shots"'', Mrs. Turtle tells Donald he can photograph all of Shelby's siblings, which are some thirty in numbers. None of them have been featured since, even in situations where they'd logically be around like when Mrs. Turtle needs a babysitter in ''"Domesticated Donald"''.
379	* PerformanceAnxiety: Unexpectedly suffers this, which comes up in ''"Mickey vs. Shelby"''. Mickey comes to his rescue by performing with him.
380	* RemovableShell: Shelby can leave his shell to run around either naked or in diapers. In ''"Domesticated Donald"'', Donald crawls into his shell, which is BiggerOnTheInside, to retrieve his video game.
381	* SignatureLaugh: It sounds something like "heeeh-eh-eh-eh!".
382	* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: Baby New Year in ''"Babysitters"''.

388	[[AC:First appearance: ''"Hansel and Gretel"'', 1999]]
389
390	A witch looking for a good meal of roasted mice.
391	----
392	* AdaptationalBadass: A considerably more potent threat than the witch from ''Hansel and Gretel'' is usually portrayed. She uses her magic to herd her prey into a cage and succeeds in capturing them, and even when she's knocked into her own oven, she becomes a ''much'' more dangerous magical threat and isn't even killed by the end of the story.
393	* BitchInSheepsClothing: The witch pretends to be a generous host to people lost in her woods, but only as long as she needs to fatten them up and lock them away [[ImAHumanitarian for her own dinner]]. The way she needs a moment before answering the door suggests that she may have also changed her outfit and appearance to look more bright and colorful to sell the act.
394	* BondVillainStupidity: She makes one critical error in leaving the cage open while she takes Mickey to the oven, allowing Minnie to escape and get the jump on her.
395	* {{Expy}}: She seems to be based on the witch of the 1932 short ''Babes in the Woods'', also a ''WesternAnimation/SillySymphonies'' product. Both of them are a ShoutOut to the witch from ''Literature/HanselAndGretel''.
396	* FatteningTheVictim: Downplayed. She only provides Mickey and Minnie one big meal and tries to cook them shortly afterwards.
397	* GingerbreadHouse: Being who she is, obviously she has one. Somewhat unique is her elaborate security system made out of candy.
398	* OneWingedAngel: Once she's in the oven, she takes on a new, fiery demon form to attack Mickey and Minnie with.
399	* PlayingWithFire: In a twist on the classic tale and [[BurnTheWitch witches in general]], being pushed into the oven was not the end of the witch. The inside of the oven was BiggerOnTheInside, enough so for Mickey and Minnie to avoid the flames. In here, the witch gained a new form or perhaps embraced her true form as a creature made of fire.
400	* {{Sadist}}: She takes glee in Mickey and Minnie's terror once they realize what she intends to do to them, and their despair when it looks like all hope is lost.
401	* SapientEatSapient: True to form, she doesn't care that Mickey and Minnie are living sentient people, she's still going to eat them.
402	* SealedEvilInACan: By the end of the short she doesn't seem to be in danger of perishing thanks to magically turning into a fire demon, but she's still trapped inside her oven with seemingly no way out.
403	* ShadowOfImpendingDoom: Only her moving shadow is shown when she walks to Mickey's and Minnie's room to prepare them for dinner.
404	* SilentSnarker: She has an unimpressed face when Mickey pretends to be too weak to open the oven door to buy some time, and even points into the oven annoyed once she opens it.
405	* TakingYouWithMe: Usually pushing the witch into the oven is the end of her, but this witch is quick enough that she pulls the two mice into the oven with her.
406	* VileVillainSaccharineShow: ''Mickey Mouse Works'' is pretty light-hearted, but the witch is one of the darkest antagonists featured in the series. She's a NoNonsenseNemesis who lures Mickey and Minnie in solely to eat them, and turns out to be a much more powerful threat than her literary counterpart. ''WesternAnimation/MickeysHouseOfVillains'' even saves her short for very last when the movie takes a darker tone following Jafar's takeover.
407	* WitchClassic: Type WickedWitch who wears a RobeAndWizardHat.

416	Pete's cousin and occasional partner-in-crime.
417	----
418	* {{Catchphrase}}: "Just like old times".
419	* CatsAreMean: Nothing new for members of Pete's family.
420	* CountryCousin: He's not very smart, or at least is intellectually overpowered by Pete, dresses the part, and speaks with a thick accent.
421	* TheFamilyThatSlaysTogether: He and Pete are cousins within a family that traditionally has been depicted as producing more crooks than law-abiding citizens, who despite their criminal lifestyle do get along well and are often in schemes together.
422	* FatBastard: He's not as needlessly cruel as Pete, but still large and mean.
423	* OldFriend: Zeke makes various references to having worked together with Pete before, for better of for worse, responding to events and accusations with the phrase "just like old times".
