Appearance
The Janitor is a middle-aged black man, who wears both a surgical mask and hospital scrubs as he wanders through the hospital. He is usually seen either with his mop, or working alongside a ginger-haired janitor (such as in 5-1N).
Personality
Having worked at the hospital for five years now, The Janitor is a rather jaded and exhausted person as a whole. He commonly says that he isn't being paid enough to handle everything chaotic happening in Middlesea Hospital, but despite his words he appears rather fond of the patients and staff. He's also a rather good listener, and often has things to say about the level the player last completed.
Relationships
- The Janitor appears to at least consider The Intern friends, given how he will frequently have something to say about the level the player just completed. This is especially noted for 4-1's Janitor dialogue, where he wonders if you forgot something or just like talking to him.
- The Janitor seems a bit resigned in regards to Hailey & Logan, saying that love isn't that complicated and they should confess already and that they need to stop dancing in the plant room. Despite this, he seems a bit fond of them.
- The Janitor and Nicole are decidedly acquaintances, despite the fact that Janitor says he's been going to the cafe for five years and Nicole still hasn't gotten his name right. Despite this, he's rather fond of her music, particularly noted in 4-4N's Janitor dialogue.
- The Janitor holds Paige in high regard, especially after an incident mentioned in 4-2's Janitor dialogue where Ada handled a surgery while the patient's wife and four kids were stuck in the hospital. He's also noted when Paige gets particularly stressed, she starts drinking a lot of soda.
- For the most part, the Janitor seems to be baffled by Ian and his actions, especially his erratic schedule. He comments on how late the radiologist stays, and how he's usually the first one clocked in during 5-2N's Janitor dialogue.
Levels
- Main Ward (Not Treatable)
- SVT Ward (Not Treatable)
History
- In the Steam Demo, Janitor can be seen conversing with a coworker that reappears in 5-1N's visuals. This was meant to serve as a roadblock, much like how Janitor's cart blocked off Act 5's Physiotherapy Ward before the player unlocked it.
Trivia
- The Janitor is one of the few characters in Rhythm Doctor that the player does not operate on directly. The other characters that share this trait as of the Act 5 Update are his coworker, the Nurse, Doctor Edega, and Doctor Spider.
