A Mickey is a capsule containing chloral hydrarte.  Ingestion causes
temporary unconsciousness.  A Mickey is also known as a Mickey Finn.
Mickeys used to be quite popular among dastardly sick curs for
committing date-rapes.  They mix it with the the victim's drink.  I
think they use a different drug for that purpose nowadays.  I don't
know where they got the name for it.
