Plot[]
The episode starts with Minnie, Mickey, and Pluto inside the clubhouse. They see a rainbow that has appeared outside. They then go outside to get a closer look and sing the clubhouse rainbow song about the order of the rainbow's colors. After Goofy, Daisy, and Donald join they plan to be "rainbowers" and go to find the other end of the rainbow, the pot of gold, and the leprechaun who Donald doesn't believe is real.
They then go inside the clubhouse to get their "mouseketools" from the "mousekedoer" which are: a tennis racket and ball, a giant fan, a magnifying glass, and the mystery "mouseketool", which is a yellow question mark. Then Toodles downloads the "mouseketools" from the "mousekedoer". After getting their mouseketools, they go back outside to find the other end of the rainbow with Donald leading the way, wanting to find the pot of gold and still thinking the leprechaun is a figment of their imaginations. After they leave Pete dressed as a leprechaun emerges behind Pluto's dog house. Pete doesn't want them to find his pot of gold and plans to stop them. Then after saying the words "rainbow rainbow go go go" he flies up the rainbow. Pete lands on two paths one pointing towards the end of the rainbow and one pointing towards hot dogs. Pete then takes off the sighs' arrows to confuse the "rainbowers" so they won't be able to find the end of the rainbow. Pete jumps into a bush right before the clubhouse "rainbowers" arrive.
Minnie sees the signs but states they don't have arrows telling them where to go. Daisy and Pluto see the arrows the brocken off arrows. Minnie bet it was the leprechaun who did it. Mickey says they think the leprechaun might be trying to keep them from finding the pot of gold. Goofy replies "If he is he's doing a good job" and they can't tell which path leads to the end of the rainbow. Minnie notices that each sign has a row of three clover shapes and the clovers are different. Goofy counts the leaves and finds the rainbow Sigh's clovers have four leaves, and the hot dog sight clovers have three leaves. But they still don't know which path leads to the end of the rainbow. Mickey sees little pots along one of the paths and thinks they might be teny tiny clovers. Goofy states their so small they can't tell if they are three-leaf clovers or four-leaf clovers. Mickey says they need to take a closer look then Minnie says they need a "mouseketool". Mickey asks the others to summon Toodles. Toodles' screen shows the tennis racket and ball, the giant fan, the magnifying glass, and the "mystery mouseketool". Minnie asks which mouseketool they can use to see the tiny clover shapes to which Goofy replies with the magnifying glass. After Toodles flies off Minnie uses the magnifying glass to see the tint clover shapes and asks the viewer how many leaves they have. Minnie then counts the leaves the find that they have four leaves and comes to the conclusion the path is the four-leaf clover path.
Daisy then puts the arrows back onto their correct signs. Donald runs in the direction of the hot dogs but Daisy reminds him of the pot of gold to which Donald runs back in the direction of. The clubhouse "rainbowers" go toward the end of the rainbow as they sing the clubhouse rainbow song. Right after they leave Pete the leprechaun pops out from a bush and says the "rainbowers" are smarter than he thought but still won't let them from finding his pot of gold. He then says "rainbow rainbow go go go" then magically flies up onto the rainbow. The clubhouse "rainbowers" stop at a ravine with a yellow tower with two draw bridges and a target on a four-leaf clover on top of it. Mickey reads a sign with a note from Pete the leprechaun saying to get across they have to hit the target. Minnie asks Donald does he now believes the leprechaun is real but the note is blown by the wind before Donald can see it. Goofy wonders how are they going to hit the target from where they're standing to the top of the tower. Mickey says they're going to need a mouseketool then instructs the gang to summon Toodles. Toodles' screen shows the tennis racket and ball, the giant fan, and the "mystery mousetool" are left. Minnie asks the viewer what can they use to hit the target, which they pick the racket and ball. After Toodles flies off, Minnie asks the viewer to help her use the tennis racket to hit the ball to which the viewer agrees. On the count of three Minnie hits the ball towards the target.
After the tennis ball hits the target the tower turns purple and then turns and lowers its draw bridges allowing the clubhouse "rainbowers" to cross and Minnie reminds them to keep their eyes on the rainbow. Right after the cross, Pete comes out from behind the target and after hearing Minnie say "Keep your eyes on the rainbow" he comes up with the idea "If they can't see the rainbow they can't follow the rainbow. Pete calls his flying mechanical helper friend (who is like Toodles), Sheamus (who is a flat floating green disk that is shaped like a shamrock and has a green screen with four leaf clovers that come in various shades of green) for a "Leprechaun tool". Sheamus's screen shows the "mystery leprechaun tool" which is also a yellow question mark, and is revealed to be a fog machine. On their way to the end of the rainbow the clubhouse "rainbowers" become surrounded by a thick cloud of fog. Mickey wonders where the fog came from Goofy says he bets it's because of the leprechaun then Donald says he best it's not. From outside of the fog Pete the leprechaun then says "That's what you say". After Mickey turns on the giant fan it blows all the fog away. Minnie says they need to get rid of the fog to see what's going on. Daisy says they could blow the fog away like with some wind. Mickey tells the other five to summon Toodles for a mousketool. Toodles's screen shows the giant fan and the "mystery mouseketool" are left. Minnie asks which mouseketool they can use to blow the fog away and the viewer picks the giant fan. After Tooldes flies off, Mickey turns on the giant fan.
After the giant fan blows the fog away they then see the end of the rainbow. After going to the end of the rainbow they don't see and pot of gold then Daisy points out how the rainbow looks different. Minnie asks the viewers if they remember their song about the colors of the rainbow they then sing the clubhouse rainbow song. Minnie asks the viewer if the rainbow goes in the right order and Mickey replies that the rainbow is fake. After Pluto touches the fake rainbow it falls apart and they then see the real rainbow in the right order of colors. The "rainbowers" then go towards the rainbow. Right after they Leave Pete comes out from a bush and worries they may find his pot of gold he then plans to hide his pot of gold before they reach the end of the rainbow. He then says "rainbow rainbow go go go" and he magically flies up onto the rainbow. The "rainbowers" see the real end of the real rainbow which is on a patch of four-leaf clovers in the shape of a giant four-leaf clover behind a hill with many four-leaf clover-shaped bushes in front of a really green river Mickey points out that is really right in the way of them. Goofy then says the leprechaun is really tricky. Donald frustratingly tells Goofy again the leprechaun is a figment of his imagination. Minnie then points up towards Pete the Leprechaun riding the rainbow to its end.
Minnie says they can ride the rainbow like a slide to the end of the rainbow. Donald asks what going on and then Minnie replies that first, they summon Toodles for their last "mouseketool". Toodles' screen only shows The "mystery mouseketool" is left. The "mystery mouseketool" is revealed to be a trampoline. After Tooldes flies off The "rainbowers" then jump onto the trampoline two at a time onto the rainbow with Mickey holding Pluto and Donald holding Goofy. They then slide to the end of the rainbow and see Pete the leprechaun to Donald's astonishment. They're glad to meet Pete the leprechaun and Donald asks him where the pot of gold is. Pete tells them that since he is a leprechaun he is supposed to keep anyone from finding his pot of gold and he hid it before they slid down the rainbow. Donald asks Pete where he hit his pot of gold and Pete unfortunately says he his his pot of gold in a four-leaf clover-shaped bush but he can't remember which one because they all look the same. Goofy offers to find Pete's pot of gold and trips over a rock after being distracted by a bush and lands in the pot of gold.
Pete the leprechaun thanks Goofy for finding his pot of gold. For finding his pot of gold Pete wants to reward them. To Donald's surprise instead of gold Pete's reward is his Grandmother's special golden leprechaun cookies. Everyone then eats Pete's Grandmother's cookies finding them to be delicious. Mickey asks Goofy what goes great with special golden leprechaun cookies to which Goofy replies with hot dogs. Mickey then says it's time to go back to the clubhouse to do the hot dog dance. Pete says they can ride the rainbow as a shortcut back to the clubhouse. Pete then instructs them to ride the rainbow they have to say "rainbow rainbow go go go."
Everyone then slides on the rainbow singing the clubhouse rainbow song back to the clubhouse. Mickey thanks the viewer for helping them find the end of the rainbow and now it's time to do the hot dog dance. Everyone (except for Pete) then goes back into the clubhouse and they do the hot dog dance.
