At the end, Yen Sid whacks Mickey from behind with the broom, and Mickey quickly runs out of the room and leaves.Īfter the piece is over, Mickey runs to Leopold Stokowski as both congratulate each other and Mickey exits while Leopold waves goodbye after he shakes hands with him. He picks up the buckets and goes back slowly to finish his chores. Yen Sid glares at Mickey, who gives him back his hat and the broom. Just then, Yen Sid comes in and sees this, and with a wave of his hands, the water descends and the army of brooms is decreased to one broom. Mickey goes to a book and looks for a spell to stop the brooms. Mickey tries to get the water out, but finds that there are too many brooms. They keep going to the vat and filling it up. Just when it is all over as Mickey is away, the little wooden split pieces, lying quietly on the floor, begin to come alive, stand upright, grow arms out of their sides, and turn into more brooms with buckets of water. Finally, when the water keeps rising, Mickey, in desperation, grabs a huge ax and chops the broom into pieces. Mickey even tries grabbing one of the buckets, but that too fails. Mickey tries to stop the broom without success it walks right over him, bringing more and more water.

Mickey wakes up to find that the room is filled with water, and despite the cauldron overflowing, the broom is not stopping.

He dreams that he was a powerful sorcerer high on top of a pinnacle commanding the stars, planets, and water. Since Mickey is satisfied, he sits down on the chair and falls asleep. He commands the broom to carry buckets of water to fill a cauldron. When he goes out of sight, Mickey puts the hat on and tries the magic on a broom. After some magic, Yen Sid puts his hat down, yawns, and goes to his chambers. The scene starts with Sorcerer Yen Sid, who is working on his magic while his apprentice Mickey does the chores.
