In the series' pilot episode, protagonist J.D. sees Janitor fixing a sliding door that was stuck, and suggests someone might have stuck a penny in the door. Janitor, thinking J.D suggested this because he put a penny in the door, tells J.D., "If I find a penny in there, I'm taking you down." He has spent the rest of the series tormenting J.D. Some of his practical jokes have been on the severe side, such as destroying J.D.'s bike, trapping him in a water tower, and stranding him in the middle of nowhere.
Neil Flynn, who plays Janitor, has said:
"I think it's possible that he doesn't hate J.D.," he says. "Maybe J.D. is as close to a friend as he has. For all we know, he just has poor social skills. I think that the janitor constantly misreads J.D.'s motives and assumes he's a rich young punk."[1]
It is suggested that the Janitor has a troubled past. During Carla's baby shower, he presents her with a "baby cage," which he says is nicer than the one he had as a child. |
