I like how JD just casually accepts that the Janitor wrecked his bike and they greet each other in a friendly manner like they aren't enemies. That was good stuff.
+Xylarxcode-Well, at this point in time, yeah, they understand each other very well. JD accepts that he antagonized the Janitor to the point the Janitor was likely going to do something like that to him. And the Janitor may have just done that to him anyway at some point to "teach him a lesson." JD accepts that his bike is destroyed, acknowledges the Janitor did it, and their relationship is more or less always like that. And when Troy tries to go after JD to attack him, Janitor holds him off. He doesn't need to attack JD. Janitor does many things to JD but he never really tries to hurt JD physically. . .that much anyway. The Janitor accepts and knows that JD got the point by having his bike wrecked. And there isn't any point to go after JD beyond that. Hitting him would just be super excessively cruel and Janitor has his limits on how cruel he is. In a twisted way, he and JD are "friends" and the Janitor is awfully fond of JD.
if you listen closely at the end of the second one, J.D. says "so I guess all you can do is try to notice the subtle differences within those moments"... go back and watch it again and you will find the two are in fact different
i always loved how much care they put into repeating this scenario. The "subtle" differences like the Janitor going to Yale, him using a Softball Bat and not a normal Bat at the end.. just fun :D
I do wonder what Scrubs would’ve been like if J.D. and Janitor would’ve been good friends. I’m sure it would’ve been just as great. I still love there buddy/rival/feud relationship. From them messing with each other to them once in a blue moon giving each other pats on the backs. When Janitor says “See you tomorrow”, I like to think that he likes the bond he has with J.D. in a “goofing around but caring” way.
I think, from the janitor’s perspective, they were good friends. I suspect that’s the Janitor’s MO. Wherever he is, he finds one person who he loves to mess with more than anyone else and when they’re gone so is he. He goes somewhere else to find a new “friend”
i think that was the goal the Déjà Vu feels kinda the same but ist not the original. its like a memory of the original like a photo of a picture if that makes sense.
I thought you just looped this first but then I realised ... wait a second :D Their answer was pretty smart. At least they visited the lie-berry for this
i love how when Troy's trying to figure it out in his head and counting with his fingers he licks them and wipes away his imaginary writing... silly Troy, he really shouldn't have kids.
I just caught that in both instances that they are counting random coins. The first time, Janitor says he went to Harvard, and the second time he says he went to Yale.
The spanish (of Spain) version is: "I have 100 ducks and put 2 of them in a drawer. How many beaks and legs are in?" They went to search ducks and then failed because they forget the part of the drawer and calculed beaks and legs of 100
With that answer I'd have been legitimately impressed. Mind you I'd have avoided them without spewing a tricksy riddle, but that probably took some serious research.
Wtf is a nickel? I swear the US overcomplicates their currency, just like with the NY subway system. We keep things simple - pennies & pounds, that's it
@@thenightman9189 At one point, it was made out of nickel. Now, only the surface cladding of the coin is nickel, as is the case for the dime and quarter as well.
This is the episode of my first theory where i thought JD was the son Jan-itor. Then another episode Janitor says he has a long lost son. Maybe thats why The Janitor keeps a close distance to him.
I'm just confused as to why he would say them interchangeably, but they make him say "one of them isn't a nickel" when he talks to JD so he could easily set JD up with the answer. Like why would he say "no nickels" when JD isn't around, but say it differently when he is? Naturally I would have expected the janitor to say "no nickels" in front of JD too or else it just sounds too scripted to me...
I love that little note of betrayal in Janitor's voice when he says "You lied to me", it's such a little inflection but has such a great effect.
I love all the actors, but Neil's the MASTER of subtle inflections. Incredible actor
"Hey, c'mere a sec, we wanna do stuff to ya" is one of my all time favorite Scrubs lines.
The janitor went to both Harvard and Yale
That guy cleaned many places...
Well, he IS a doctor. Doctor Jan Itor.
He was the custodial engineer at both universities.
Maybe it was between the episodes
He studied acting. He was an actor who didn’t make it and ended up as a janitor

Xylarxcode ha - nice try - law’s impartial - ‘nuff said 👋

it reminds me of the looney tunes where Sam Sheepdog would attack the coyote but moment they clock out they're okay with each other.
Strawbruarry!
Don't have kids.
I never noticed they did this two times! haha
ironmaiden93ofangmar they're from different episodes
I know. That's what I mean. I never noticed they went through the same sequence in 2 different episodes
ironmaiden93ofangmar well apparently the second episode's name is My Deja Vu, My Deja Vu
I seen them doing it in the Deja Vu episode before the first one
Neither did I.
if you listen closely at the end of the second one, J.D. says "so I guess all you can do is try to notice the subtle differences within those moments"... go back and watch it again and you will find the two are in fact different
If I was in JD's position and I heard the answer they gave me, I would've just given him the answer, that was impressive.
i always loved how much care they put into repeating this scenario. The "subtle" differences like the Janitor going to Yale, him using a Softball Bat and not a normal Bat at the end.. just fun :D
I love how this is the only show that could have two version of the same scenes and still be equally as funny and not feel tired.
Come here, we wanna do stuff to ya.
"Boy, your face is as red as a strawbrary!"
"Don't have kids."
@@markcollins2666 Twelve year old comment, but I admire you for the follow-up.
LOL!!!!
Once he's at Harvard and the second time at Yale.
"I swear we've done this bevore!"
I love the Janitor ^^
First time he says he went to Harvard, second time he says the other guy went to Yale.
two guys destroyed your bike, and one of them wasn't me! xD
"Don't have kids" is possibly my favourite insult.
the funniest thing to me is imagining the janitor and troy walking into a bank and asking for coins
With top hats
Troy: Can't we just kill him?
Janitor: How's therapy going?
I think that’s a nice little aspect for Janitor’s character. He likes messing with JD but not to the point where it’ll kill him.
it's like a game of spot the diffrence

I just realized he refers to himself as janitor
You gotta give the Janitor credit. That took dedication.
I honestly would have just given the Janitor the win, with the answer he found.
"Troy! This one's over."
They definitely deliver the lines better on the first run.
i think that was the goal the Déjà Vu feels kinda the same but ist not the original. its like a memory of the original like a photo of a picture if that makes sense.

a penny, and... a 1972 dime with a Roosevelt imperfection, today worth exactly 29 cents.
Janitor is known for his lies
i love how when Troy's trying to figure it out in his head and counting with his fingers he licks them and wipes away his imaginary writing... silly Troy, he really shouldn't have kids.
I do this though.... I draw it in air, then if I use the wrong equations, I wipe them away. I think it's a "visual" reinforcement strategy.
1:57 the janitor's face transition omg 🤣
"One of them isn't a nickel, the other one is!
I just caught that in both instances that they are counting random coins. The first time, Janitor says he went to Harvard, and the second time he says he went to Yale.
slightly smug about figuring out the riddle while having no memory of this scene :L
what about a twenty cents coin and a dime?
That's what I was thinking, since a U.S. twenty-cent coin was actually minted in the past (albeit briefly).
Don't have kids
they put a lot of effort in the riddle!!
1:17 "easy janitor"
Technically their answer is correct. He should have left them have it, they might not have wrecked his bike.
he says harvard the first time and yale the second ime
I still tell this riddle to people and they still get the answer wrong.
My best parts in this show was always the janitor.
"No its a riddle"
Such a great show
best pick up line: "hey! come here a sec, I wanna do stuff to you"
FUCK IT , GONNA TRY IT OUT TOMORRROW
Absolutely furious that I never got to see Troy’s iconic hat.
The spanish (of Spain) version is: "I have 100 ducks and put 2 of them in a drawer. How many beaks and legs are in?" They went to search ducks and then failed because they forget the part of the drawer and calculed beaks and legs of 100
as said above, remember, Janitor is known for his lies
With that answer I'd have been legitimately impressed. Mind you I'd have avoided them without spewing a tricksy riddle, but that probably took some serious research.
Why are there 2 versions of it?
I love it one is not a nickel.
I love bar bets.
Put a quarter, a nickel, dime and a penny profile up.
Tell me what the difference is.
Lincoln on the Penny is facing right.
All the remaining three faces are facing left.
And Yale.
He went to Harvad, and Yale?
Don't have kids.
I still say “strawbrary”
@BlackTights52 There was an episode called My Déjà Vu where parts of other episodes were put into the episode. The riddle was one of those parts.
The second time was better then the first
Doctors!
Strawbrary LOL
@GBBK12 did u figured out, whats the song is called?
amazing song when jd is running lol
janitors face is hilarious at 1:58!
What if one of them is a foreign coin worth $0.29?
Did you watch the video?
what video
Madcapredcap
This one lmao
there was a video?
Nope nope nope
If the Janitor had an unreasonable motive to torture JD for 7 years...This is a reason sure vindicates him.
The bat and crowbar were spotless. Who really destroyed his bike?
You lied to me.
wvu05 It’s a riddle.
Don’t have kids.
@blue1231 His goatee/beard thing is gone. Two years later, the difference is solved. =)
never noticed back then his face did turn red,
Mindfuck.
Which two episodes are these?
304, My Lucky Night
522, My Déjà vu, My Déjà Vu
JD just wants to waste their time lol
Mainly to stall them so they don’t torture him.
1:54 You swindled me
Scrubs did get lazy in later seasons
Wait. Wait. Hold on. The janitor went to Harvard? WHAT!?
Because it's one of his many fabricated backstories.
Nah he was at Harvard and Yale. As a JANITOR.
hang on a second the janitor went to havard?
KurnalGraham yup
Sloppy joe guy
💰
awesome!
@rotinaj47 @KurnalGraham
First time he went to Harvard and second time he went to Yale. Notice something?
It's like they redid the episode cos the actor Troy got changed
This is the episode where J.D. gets his first nectarini, right? Haha
GOD DAMMIT
does america not have 5 cent coins? i know you have quarters
+OhNoNotMyPenis Why the hell don't you call it five cents then?!?
Penny 1 cent
Nickel 5 cents
Dime 10 cents
Quarter 25 cents
half dollar/fifty cent piece 50 cents
dollar coin 100 cents
What do you mean? We do.
Krigalishnikov because it’s made of nickel?
@Evi1M4chine Rarely a good idea to ask us to use common cents.
Wtf is a nickel? I swear the US overcomplicates their currency, just like with the NY subway system. We keep things simple - pennies & pounds, that's it
In Canada we call a 5 cent a nickel too.
It's made out of nickel.... Not really that complicated.
@@thenightman9189 At one point, it was made out of nickel. Now, only the surface cladding of the coin is nickel, as is the case for the dime and quarter as well.
A penny is 1 cent and kinda worthless. A nickel is five
A dime is 10
A quarter is 25
A half dollar is rarer to find and 50.
The other one is
Weird!
This is the episode of my first theory where i thought JD was the son Jan-itor. Then another episode Janitor says he has a long lost son. Maybe thats why The Janitor keeps a close distance to him.
First he went to Harvard then he went to Yale Lol
The only thing that didn't age well about this show is tge medical procedures
Da fuq. Janitor says "2 coins, 30 cents, *no nickels*" but when he approaches JD, he says "one of them isn't a nickel"
Well, yes. The Janitor didn't understand the riddle. He thought "one of them isn't a nickel" meant "no nickels".
I'm just confused as to why he would say them interchangeably, but they make him say "one of them isn't a nickel" when he talks to JD so he could easily set JD up with the answer.

Naturally I would have expected the janitor to say "no nickels" in front of JD too or else it just sounds too scripted to me...
BRBallin1 That's because it is scripted... They have a whole team of writers, writing the script for every episode. That's how sitcoms work.
Aya Drevis Normally this show doesn't feel so scripted, but this scene did.
BRBallin1 it's a riddle not a question, so ones a quarter ones a nickle, the one that isn't a nickle is the quarter
@blue1231 OHHHHHH DEJA VU
@KurnalGraham Yale
Lebron never figured out the answer.
Troy is such a treasure in this show!
the janitor calls himself "janitor"? poor guy!
it's cuz his name not being known is a running gag in the show, we only his name in the finale season
Not sure if i am spelling this correctly, but this screams Mandela effect lmao
