What happens

Mickey's Garden is a 1935 American animated short film produced by Walt Disney Productions and released by United Artists. The film was the second Mickey Mouse cartoon shot in Technicolor (after The Band Concert) and is also the first color appearance of Pluto. The cartoon is also the first color cartoon where Mickey Mouse speaks (though he only does so at the end when Pluto starts licking him). The film's plot centers on Mickey trying to rid his garden of insects, but they keep coming back. When he accidentally gets hit with his own bug spray, he begins seeing a warped reality. It was the 76th Mickey Mouse short film to be released, and the fifth of that year. The last dialogue of the show is Mickey telling Pluto to stop licking him in the last 20 seconds.
