This episode hails as one of the greats in Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. We get a fun adventure with a great treasure at the end. But the truly great part of the episode is what happens while everyone is searching for the treasure.
In this episode, we are introduced to Quoodles. She's a tool distributor just like Toodles who is just as adorable and sweet albeit slightly ditzy compared to him. She's assisting the baddie of the episode, Space Pirate Pete. While I wasn't a fan of Quoodles at first, basically seeing of her as a copycat version of Toodles, I was proven to not jump to conclusions so quickly. In fact, when Quoodles and Toodles meet, it leads to the episode's subplot.
Toodles and Quoodles zing a.k.a. Fall in love with each other at first sight. And it's the sweetest thing I've ever seen. I was expecting some sort of conflict between the two. Instead, they see each other as the same and get along extremely well. And in what I consider one of the best moments in the whole series, Toodles tries to give Quoodles flowers at one point only for Space Pirate Pete to ruin the moment, force the two apart, and leave them heartbroken. It was the first time I ever truly empathized and sympathized with fictional characters.
The two clearly love each other but being on opposing sides in hunting the treasure puts them at odds. Luckily, there love brings both treasure hunting parties together. Towards the end of the episode, Quoodles gets stuck in Space Pirate Pete's sticky web. Toodles does try to rescue her, only to get stuck as well. But the two of them getting stuck ends up resulting in Mickey and Pete putting differences aside and teaming up! That was great writing and it led to the creation of the most underrated couple in animation history, in my opinion.
Once again, I'm hoping Disney brings Toodles and Quoodles back in the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse revival and other Mickey Mouse related projects as the two make such a great couple and whenever both are together, it makes me happy times infinity to the power of 10,000!
