Adelbert's father

Adelbert's father is the rich father of Adelbert in the 1932 short, "Mickey's Good Deed" and the 2023 remake of the same name.

Role in the short
On Christmas Eve, inside of a rich mansion, Adelbert's father along with his wife (Adelbert's mother) and the butler are dealing with Adelbert throwing a huge temper tantrum and refusing all the expensive toys they try to give him. Adelbert soon starts to take interest in Pluto, who is outside singing Christmas carols with Mickey outside the window. Adelbert starts demanding that he keep Pluto as a pet and his father demands that the butler buy Pluto from Mickey. Mickey refuses to sell Pluto only for him to change his mind after realizing he can use the money to help a nearby poor family. Adelbert's father, Adelbert's mother and the butler were delighted when they see Adelbert having fun with Pluto.

Some time later, Adelbert's father and mother yell at their son as the latter wrecks the mansion in an attempt to hit Pluto. His parents get injured and Pluto trips the butler as he continues to throw things. As Adelbert destroys the house and continues to frighten Pluto, he throws a cake which ends up hitting his mother's face. Later, Adelbert destroys the Christmas tree, causing his father to get stabbed in the backside by the tree's centerpiece.

Adelbert's parents finally had enough. They order the butler to throw Pluto out, and Adelbert starts crying and screaming. His father turns him around facing him, pulls his pants down and spanks him. Pluto watches and laughs after he sees this. Later, he leaves to search for Mickey.
