House of Mouse segments

  • Hades and Maleficent finally going on their date in "Halloween For Hades", especially considering how hard he was trying to impress her, and how genuine his affections for her were. There's someone out there for everyone, even the bad guys.
    Mickey: Even if you're the hot-tempered lord of the underworld, it's always best to be yourself.
  • The ending to "Not So Goofy", where Mickey and the staff apologize to Goofy for wanting him to be "un-goofy" and tell him they liked him better as his goofy self.
  • Donald's price for giving Mickey the money needed to pay the rent: let Daisy perform during the show.
  • Ludwig von Drake's song in "Ask von Drake" mentions (and features) Roy Disney (Walt's nephew).
  • In “Max’s Embarrassing Date”, Max thinks Goofy will embarrass him while he’s on a date with Roxanne at the House of Mouse. As the date progresses, Max repeatedly gets embarrassed by the House of Mouse staff until Goofy butts in and tells everybody to leave Max and Roxanne alone. Unlike Mickey and his friends, Goofy understands that their attempts to help Max’s date created an embarrassing situation for him. To top it off, Roxanne is grateful to Goofy and Max isn’t embarrassed by his dad when he accidentally causes a ruckus in the dining area.
  • The ending of "Mickey and the Culture Clash", where Mickey and Minnie get back together after realizing that Mortimer was playing them both for chumps.
  • Donald immediately going off to make amends with Dennis the Duck when he learns that the latter is his biggest fan. Given what Donald has to put up with most of the time, that must have meant a lot to him.
  • Seeing Roxanne once more, and she's still with Max. While it's not explicitly confirmed if House of Mouse takes place before or after An Extremely Goofy Movie (the events of that movie aren't stated nor implied, though from a chronological perspective, it would make sense, especially since Max looks older in House of Mouse), the fact that Disney did not forget her role is sweet.
    • Even sweeter is just how excited the cast is to meet her. It shows just how much Max means to them and how they want to meet the special lady he's with.
  • In "Goofy for a Day," Max attempting to wait on Hades has him sic Pain and Panic on him to take him to the Underworld. Goofy immediately runs in to save his son before warning him about Hades.
  • During the Christmas wishes segment in Mickey's Magical Christmas: Snowed In At the House of Mouse, Mickey says that Minnie is all he wishes for Christmas. It's doubly heartwarming when you remember that Wayne Allwine and Russi Taylor, the voice actors for Mickey and Minnie, were married prior to Wayne's death.
  • The finale to Mickey's Magical Christmas: Snowed In At the House of Mouse, featuring every character (yes, even the villains) raising their voice in chorus, singing and convincing Donald that it's friends, family, love, and warm wishes that makes it "The Best Christmas Of All."
  • In "Pete’s Christmas Caper", Pete learns that everybody on the house staff got together to give him presents, meaning his whole scheme to steal all the presents was for nothing. He still was genuinely touched that they put aside his villainy to do something nice for him. And he gets to repay at least Minnie! Mortimer has been trying to force Minnie to kiss him the whole episode by hanging mistletoe between them. At the end of the episode, Pete arrives and kisses Mortimer instead, and actually shares a high five with Minnie. It’s an act of pure kindness this version of Pete never seems capable of, but he does it nonetheless.
  • "The Mouse Who Came to Dinner" has it being revealed Lumiere was the critic everyone was waiting for and after saying he would never give Mickey and the gang a bad review, helps them get rid of Mortimer.
  • In "Max's New Car" Goofy goes around asking his friends for there opinions on whether or not Max is responsible enough to own a car, and they all agree that he is, this of course is juxtaposed with Max on an out of control ride in the car from the previous cartoon, and near the end of the episode even after crashing a car into the wall backstage ,everyone is still backing Max up on letting Goofy get him a car.
