In response to a question about Mickey Mouse’s first appearance on film:

sidesh0w:
Dude, the answer is Steamboat Willie.
K:
You sound pretty sure.
sidesh0w:
Yeah. Trust me.
K:
[hesitant] How do you know?
sidesh0w:
It’s what your mom calls me every night.
[General laughter, groaning]
K:
Does she call you “Steamboat Willie”, or “Mickey Mouse”?
sidesh0w:
She goes back and forth.
[beat]
Cat:
I bet she does.

And, scene.
