I was watching a movie yesterday called Heartbreakers. At one scene
she (sigourney weaver) said "I micked him" after she made the guy
drunk and made him to sleep with him.

What is the meaning of that "mick" word? I couldn't find it.
I need to find out the Dictionary meaning.

Dear airtughan-ga;

Thank you for allowing me an opportunity to answer your interesting
question.

What Sigourney Weaver’s character was referring to was the covert
application of a drug (usually Chloral Hydrate in a drink containing
alcohol) commonly called a “Mickey Finn” or sometimes more
generically, the infamous slang term, “knock-out drops”. For the sake
of the movie (and to be more cool I suppose) the term was shortened to
“Mick”, probably assuming that many viewers would know what she was
talking about.

In real-life however, Chloral Hydrate is a substance far too dangerous
to be arbitrarily played with. It is a very serious Schedule IV
pharmaceutical sedative that is synergistic with alcohol and has the
same depressive attributes on the central nervous system as
barbiturates, often bringing on a coma-like state. Too much of it or
an adverse reaction to it can cause breathing difficulty and/or
abnormally low blood pressure sometimes resulting in death.
