In Disney Mickey Mouse season 3 episode 6, titled "Bottle Shocked," Mickey and his friends encounter a big problem when they decide to start their own brand of soda. The episode starts with the gang gathering together in Mickey's garage, where they brainstorm about starting their own business without realizing how much effort it takes.
Mickey, being the most proactive among them, suggests that they manufacture their own soda flavors to sell to their friends and neighbors. Everyone loves the idea, and they all set off to try and make the best soda flavor.
However, as they pour out their test batches of soda, they quickly realize how much competition they would be up against if they wanted to make their brand global and appealing to the public. The group starts to bicker among each other on what ingredients to use, what flavors will work the best, and how the packaging should look like.
As the group starts to put their heads together to solve the problem, they become aware of the reality that soda-making is a tough business, and it takes more than just a good recipe to be successful. But throughout the episode, the group undergoes a series of hilarious mishaps as they try to make the perfect soda they all can agree on.
To make things more difficult, they discover they're all used to different flavors, which leads to them getting into a heated argument about what flavors to choose. The group eventually agrees to each make a batch of soda that they think is the best, and they all come up with different flavors that they believe would be a hit.
Mickey's batch has a very eye-catching color and flavor that everyone loved, while Goofy's batch tasted like candy but had a terrible aftertaste. Donald's batch on the other hand was so sour that it made everyone pucker, but it was a huge hit with Clarabelle.
The group is eventually able to work past their differences and come up with a successful soda recipe that they can all agree on. However, they learn that making a great product was only half the battle. They now had to market their new brand of soda if they wanted it to be as successful as they dreamed.
As the episode progresses, the group struggles with various advertising campaigns and marketing ideas, such as creating a catchy name, designing the perfect bottle, and even brainstorming ways to get the word out. They create wild advertising campaigns, including putting their faces on billboards and going around town handing out free samples.
The end results are always hilarious and leave the group feeling more bottle-shocked than ever. Ultimately through, they learned a lesson and gained an understanding of how much work and dedication were required to compete in the market and start their own business.
In conclusion, "Bottle Shocked" is an enjoyable episode that showcases how difficult, but ultimately rewarding it is to start a business and compete in a crowded industry.
