Synopsis:

After Tom Cat leaves his house, drunk on hooch to go hunting, Mickey organizes all his mice friends to break into the cat's house. Once inside, Mickey and Minnie play the piano by dancing on the keys and, later, others play some of the cat's musical instruments and records (using themselves as the speaker and stylus). In the end, Mickey and Minnie successfully kiss each other.
