When a side character in a story performs brainless acts that gets the protagonist into trouble, or even in mortal danger, much like the monkey Abu in the movie "Aladdin".

Abu grabs a shining jewel in the Cave of Wonders, the cave collapses in on itself, etc.) In animated shows, this is often an animal sidekick, but does not have to be as such in all media.
