Context WMG / Scrubs

Go To

1[[WMG: The frequent ImagineSpot moments JD has are real and JD imagines that they never happened]]
2ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin
3** WAIT! you mean he's been walking around headless since the end of episode 2.
4[[WMG: Sacred Heart is in San Antonio Texas]]
5My girlfriend's theory is that it's in San Antonio because in the episode where Dr. Clock (Heather Graham) has her watch set to the time in Greenland, Elliot states that it's 3 hours off. Also Shaun works at Sea-World. The only Sea World in the proper time-zone? San Antonio.
6** Elliot once has to take a train to see Shaun in Sea World. There are trains servicing San Antonio, but it suggests that Sacred Heart is somewhere else in Texas at least.
7*** San Antonio is actually the largest American city without any commuter rail system, and like many major Texas cities only has a single Amtrak station
8** Jossed, it's in California.
9
10[[WMG: Sacred Heart is in Sacramento, California]]
11Not the wildest mass guessing but hey South Sacramento is the only place you can get Dunkin' Donuts in the state. (As Turk did in one episode or another)
12** Also 916 as in (916)-CAL-LTUR is the area code for Sacramento.
13** Jossed. Apparently it's in San Difrangeles (San Francisco, San Diego and Los Angeles).
14
15[[WMG: Scrubs is a sequel to Series/TheAdventuresOfPeteAndPete]]
16JD is Big Pete. Cox is Artie, traumatized by having joined the adult world without his superhero persona. The Janitor is Endless Mike Hellstrom, only grown up.
17
18[[WMG: JD's fantasies are hallucinations.]]
19Or at least the fantasies he confuses with reality are. Numerous times, he has disconnected with reality enough to make strange movements, leading other doctors to ask, "Are you okay?" In the fairytale episode, he asks Elliot, "Am I imagining him?" This is presumably because he was born prematurely, as evidenced by his reply "I was a preemie" when a patient notes that he is a "strange man."
20
21[[WMG: The entire world is created by JD's imagination]]
22Perhaps he's in a coma. Perhaps it's a really long daydream. But what if the voice-over JD is the real JD's mind commenting on this entirely new world created inside his head, where he looks at himself from a distance? JD seems to be aware of some things that the characters should not hear, like the incidental music. And voiceover JD (or Real JD) seems to be aware of and comments on scenes that JD doesn't witness. Basically, what we think is JD thinking inside his head, along with the various voiceovers, is the voice of Real JD's mind; everything we see and hear outside of that is simply a construct created by Real JD's mind.
23* Impossible. [[Series/StElsewhere He's not nearly autistic enough.]]
24
25[[WMG: The Narrator from the Headscratchers page is [[Literature/{{Dexter}} The Dark Passenger.]]]]
26It can go to different people, such as in "His Story" and "Their Story." Perhaps it just grants limited knowledge of things nobody else on the show could know and gives the host strange fantasies.
27
28[[WMG: Jordan is the ancient demon-mother Lillith in disguise.]]
29Look at the evidence! She sleeps with anything, hates humankind in general, and somehow never looks quite right despite her purported attractiveness.
30* You don't think Jordan's hot?
31** Oh, Jordan is hot. She just always gives me a "bad feeling about this". -- Eli
32
33[[WMG: Jordan used to be Kate on ''Series/TheDrewCareyShow'', but she killed The Devil, got his powers, and decided to move to California when her double life got boring.]]
34As soon as she got The Devil's powers, she made an illusion of him that required a virgin bride (The Devil wanted a slut) and reverse-engineered a second life as the daughter of a dying hospital director in San Frangeles. When Jordan!Kate got tired of Drew, she had Kate leave Cleveland. She spent the next seven years trying to usurp Kelso's position as resident life-force stealing demon.
35
36[[WMG: The Janitor's real name is Steven]]
37The only evidence for this is that that's what he called Rowdy's replacement.
38* His name is Josh. He tells Cox this while defending the integrity of his newsletter.
39** I think it was mentioned somewhere that JOSH actually stood for Janitor Of Sacred Heart?
40** The Janitor enjoys lying to people and constantly tells contradictory stories about himself. If he said it's Josh, then it probably isn't.
41* Considering how Janitor was treating Steven as though he were alive, it seems more likely that the person that made him had named the dog Steven, not him.
42
43[[WMG: The Janitor's real name is Jan Itor.]]
44 Why would he give a fake name at his son's career day?
45* We can't even be sure his son is real.
46* Alternately, John 'Itter. ''He's JD's father''.
47** He does make that claim in Season One.
48* It's not Jan Itor, it's Thejan Itor.
49
50[[WMG: The Janitor's name...]]
51...starts with a "Ch" or a "Sh". As seen in the second half of the Bahamas two-parter.
52* Shaun Itor?
53
54[[WMG: The Janitor's real name is Neil Flynn.]]
55 That's right! Neil Flynn is played by...Neil Flynn. JD noticed that the Janitor played the transit cop in The Fugitive, and the Janitor did confirm it. So, if the Janitor played the cop, and that cop was played by one Neil Flynn, then this means that the Janitor and Neil Flynn are one and the same.
56* That’s why he never stays fired no matter how bad he does his job, he doesn’t really work there. Neil Flynn just like to screw with the doctors at a local hospital when he’s not on acting jobs
57
58[[WMG: The Janitor's name is Neil Flynn...]]
59Who is working at Sacred Heart under the name John 'Itter, who is JD's dad.
60
61[[WMG: All of this speculation about the Janitor was put here by the Janitor himself to seem more mysterious.]]
62
63[[WMG: Dr. Cox's pessimism is the result of a life-altering disillusionment]]
64In one episode, his mentor comes to the hospital, and Dr. Cox acts towards him a lot like JD acts towards ol' Coxy. So, somewhere between the time he was a fresh-faced Billy Idol-impersonating intern and when we met him as a hard-minded no-nonsense attending physician, he became so traumatized by something that he lost all faith in life. That's why he's so hard on JD - he sees too much of himself in the younger man, and he's scared the same thing will happen to him.
65* I thought that was {{canon}}?
66
67[[WMG: Dr. Kelso is [[Manga/DeathNote a Kira]]]]
68Okay, might be a stretch, unless someone can find proof.
69* If he was, then his wife would probably be dead by now.
70** Unless his wife is his Shinigami! How about that?
71*** So THAT'S why we don't see her! We haven't touched her note! Shinigami probably can't reproduce under normal circumstances, but Kelso's son should still be half-shinigami; a gay half-shinigami works due to RuleOfCool.
72* Maybe he killed TCW and Dr. Miller.
73** Dr. Miller, no question about it. But why would he go after TCW?
74*** Because he's a MagnificentBastard?
75*** Because her husband had an odd insurance plan that cost the hospital a lot of money to keep him in the room. Kelso IS a spendthrift.
76
77[[WMG: J.D. is the Janitor's insane work-buddy]]
78That's why the Janitor hates him. J.D. makes his life a living hell by being a special-needs crazy person. The hospital is real, mind-you, but all the bits about J.D. being a doctor are just parts of his hallucination. Turk, Carla and Elliot tolerate his hanging around because they feel sorry for him. This is why J.D. can get away with crap that would get him fired as a doctor...
79
80[[WMG: Scrubs is upstairs from Crichton's Series/{{ER}} television show]]
81You never see the emergency room in Series/{{Scrubs}}. That's because it's an entirely different show called 'Series/{{ER}}', and it used to have Clooney beating up pedophiles like God intended...
82* No, the Sacred Heart ER is where George Clooney's character went ''after'' he left the show ER. (ER was set in Chicago.)
83
84[[WMG: Denise is the reincarnation of Cutthroat Bitch from ''Series/{{House}}'']]
85Because....Yeah.
86* That would require Denise to have time traveled. Their lifespans overlap, and CTB's timeline is almost certainly linear. So Denise was born around March 2009 and then travelled back in time before she went into premed.
87** Reincarnation is not necessarily linear.
88
89[[WMG: The Janitor is... Neil Flynn fallen on hard times.]]
90This was heavily implied when J.D. recognized him while watching ''Film/TheFugitive''.
91* They just incorporated it into the back story for Janitor. It isn't supposed to imply that it is Neil Flynn himself.
92** Hey, if it could work for [[Series/TheOfficeUS Creed Bratton]]...
93** So the Janitor left so he could star in ''Series/TheMiddle''?
94*** To me he did.
95
96[[WMG: The Janitor used his taxidermy skills to make a Neil Flynn skinsuit that he wears 24/7.]]
97* Have Neil Flynn and Janitor ever been seen in the same place? It could be that Janitor completely replaced him, taking acting jobs to supplement his (formerly) incredibly low janitor pay, when he isn't hanging around the hospital and tormenting JD, or courting Lady.
98** In one episode, JD gets ink on the Janitor's skin (due to a faulty ink pen). When the Janitor points this out he says, "This is my favorite ''skin''!"
99[[WMG: JD contracted a degenerative disease of the brain at some point, possibly from a patient.]]
100Notice how he seems to get dumber & more emotionally unstable every episode.
101
102[[WMG: JD is the ancestor of Gaius Baltar from Series/{{Battlestar Galactica|2003}}]]
103
104[[http://img16.imageshack.us/img16/9227/gaiusbaltar.jpg Gaius Baltar]]
105Compare to: [[http://img5.imageshack.us/img5/853/60088473.jpg JD]]
106
107The hallucinated Cylon that Gaius sees is clearly an inherited trait and originated with JD's fantasies. It was already shown that JD's baby does the daydreaming thing, and so it is a genetically inherited trait. It would just become more refined over the intervening generations before Battlestar Galactica until the hallucinations tie into reality, and comment or give advice on the current situation.
108
109Either that, or they are the same person and JD/Gaius is a JustForFun/TimeLord.
110
111If they are the same person, and he is a Time Lord, then the contrast between their personalities could be explained as the intervening centuries, along with the destruction of Caprica, to have matured JD somewhat.
112
113[[WMG: Sunny will be the next Nick Murdoch (broken intern from season 1).]]
114She's happy, optimistic, and under a lot of stress; and she keeps getting paired up with Denise, who quite frankly scares the living daylights out of her. She's stayed up for days trying to take care of patients to the point of hallucination. Unfortunately for her, ''[[BreakTheCutie the cuties must be broken]]''. She'll snap, and the only thing that'll save her is ''not'' being the best intern so that she's still friends with Denise and... whoever's in charge of her.
115
116[[WMG: Nick Murdoch is Matt Murdoch's half-brother.]]
117Vague resemblance, but not enough to be a clone. Nick will try another line of work but, being irreversibly broken, he'll eventually be sent to Arkham (remember, in WMG world, DC and Marvel are in linked continuities). There, he will take on the technology of his cellmate and become The Doctor (supervillain name, not [[Series/DoctorWho the Doctor]] you're thinking of). On a visit to California, Matt will stop him from destroying Sacred Heart, along with Janitor and his friend and former co-worker Harrison Ford.
118
119[[WMG: Nick Murdoch is [[Series/WillAndGrace Jack McFarland]].]]
120They both are played by the same actor for a start. The timelines do also work, if you assume Nick/"Jack" (most likely an assumed name to get into college parties) studied medicine. At some point between a year after Will came out to Grace at Thanksgiving and the very 1st episode of Will & Grace, Nick graduated, abandoning the overly camp persona to focus on his studies, and then transferred to Sacred Heart. The events of My Super Ego happened, and Nick subsequently underwent a massive breakdown, his mind snapping back to the last point in time when he was happy: being "Jack". At this point he moves back to New York, moves in with Will, and the events of Will & Grace occur. This explains Jack's lack of maturity (his mind snapping back to a point before he matured and focused on his studies), his overly gay attitude (it was deliberately over the top when he did it the first time), and his nursing aptitude (his medical knowledge and skills shining through). His family play along, naturally, and Will and Grace don't know about Nick. Karen may actually know, between her private detectives and her comment about talking hundreds of times on the phone but never actually meeting (until the 1st episode of Will & Grace), but if she does she's not telling. It does explain why she spoils him far more than her step children though.
121
122[[WMG: The Janitor didn't exist before Season 2]]
123Originally, he was just JD's imagination. But after JD constantly referred to "the janitor", even though the real janitor only showed up at night, eventually people believed that there was a day janitor; and so he became real. This is also why the janitor can't be fired; he doesn't exist on any hospital staff list, and the higher-ups haven't heard of him.
124* So this universe operates on ClapYourHandsIfYouBelieve logic? I'd come up with a witty retort, but that sounds ''awesome''.
125* According to IMDB:
126** Through the first season, the cast and crew, especially writer/creator Bill Lawrence, were so sure that the series would be canceled by the end of the season, that a plot twist was created for use when they'd have a forced series finale. This plot twist noted the fact that the Janitor, Neil Flynn's character, never directly spoke nor was spoken to by any other character than JD, Zach Braff's character. Therefore, the Janitor would be a complete figment of JD's imagination. This idea was kept up into the second season, still in fear of cancellation, until Flynn asked Lawrence to be able to finally interact with another actor on the series. (Although Elliot actually throws a cup at him in the 6th episode and sarcastically says "SORRY!", in episode 11 he gets punched on the balls by a little girl and in episode 15 the janitor teases the nurse with the vacuum cleaner)
127** Also in the first episode with Ben, he shows JD photos where the Janitor is in the background and asks who he is. But it's strange that Ben could see The Janitor on the photos but never in person. Hmmm...
128*** [[spoiler:None of that was real.]]
129*** The Janitor is obviously a [[WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons reverse vampire]], you can see him in mirrors and in photographs but not in person.
130
131[[WMG: Janitor is an archbishop.]]
132Not necessarily of the Catholic Church or even any mainstream religion. The second time the "Minister of Justice" that Todd found tried to say his name, it sounded like "Archb-". It could be that he hadn't said the Janitor's name at all, but his title, preceding the name.
133* Maybe his name is Archibald.
134
135[[WMG: Janitor is a superhero.]]
136The Janitor. Either one of the darker, gritty ones from the eighties, or a villain. He wanted a new Janitor outfit with a cape from Kelso to replace his old one, which had been damaged or [[WesternAnimation/TheIncredibles sucked into a plane engine]]. His backstory confusion is so nobody will believe him if he accidentally gets hit with a truth ray or truth serum. His motto is either "cleans up crime" or "he'll clean out the banks and clean your clock, but won't clean anything else"; and his catch phrase (good or evil) is "I'll mop the floor with you!" Also knows Daredevil's [[SeparatedAtBirth previously-unknown]] twin Nick Murdoch from his days at the hospital, and saved or threatened Harrison Ford, getting him a part in ''Film/TheFugitive''.
137
138[[WMG: Janitor has never intentionally killed an animal.]]
139He bought Bingo (the salt-and-pepper dispensing rabbit) and Stephen online. He stated outright that he traded his squirrel army for a stuffed dog he found online, and may not have been lying. The squirrels were all captured alive, and he could have either been ''really'' bad at taking care of squirrels, or trained them to stand really still on a plaque or stand like he did with Sancho (the raven) to make Kelso think he'd been killed and stuffed.
140
141[[WMG: Janitor has a very long name]]
142The Name being [[spoiler: Glenn Anthony/Thomas (Depending on whether the intern said Tommy or Tony) Ephraim Klaus Nigel Joshua (insert Asian Name here) Matthews]] Thus his comment that the many names he's been called all have a dagree of Truth to them
143
144[[WMG: JD's fainting spells are also triggered by {{Imagine Spot}}s.]]
145Not just defecation. But it's a different trigger that locks his knees instead of falling over. Or something.
146
147[[WMG: JD is a repressed Bisexual.]]
148Notice that, during his numerous moments of HoYay, he barely narrates. JD is an UnreliableNarrator, and so he glazes over the stuff that he's not comfortable with.
149* This is true, but there are no real HoYay moments; they're always one-sided. JD is almost always the instigator. The Todd may wear man-thongs, but he never tried to have a long sensitive talk with his best friend while exchanging hand-made gifts.
150
151[[WMG: JD is the future Milhouse.]]
152They're both nerdy, kind of whiny, effeminate at times, and not particularly bright. They also almost have the same hairstyle.
153* JD's definitely very intelligent considering he's a doctor (and a good one at that). He's just kind of unfocused, quirky and a bit self-centered.
154
155[[WMG: [[Series/BattlestarGalactica2003 Gaius Baltar]] is JD's ancestor]]
156See the other JD/Baltar theory and the finale of Series/{{Battlestar Galactica|2003}} for details. Done right, this could even be a StableTimeLoop.
157
158
159[[WMG: The Janitor is a Shinigami and Doug Murphy is his Kira.]]
160Janitor "auditioned" J.D. for the post of his Kira in the first season, but J.D. was too nice. Eventually he found Doug, who "everybody knows" is just a horrible doctor who is responsible for a boatload of deaths in the hospital and who somehow knows ''exactly'' how everybody in the morgue has died. Doug likes to tear pages out of Death Notes and put them into patient charts. Sometimes he has fun...
161* "Patient X. Latex glove sewn in body during surgery, causing infection.
162* "Jill Tracy. Rabies."
163* "Mr. Bradford. Rabies. Jill Tracy's rabies-infected heart valve transplanted into body."
164* "Ben Sullivan. Cardiac arrest following examination for leukemia."
165
166
167[[WMG: JD is [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Shinji Ikari]] and the whole series takes place during [[AssimilationPlot Instrumentality]].]]
168Because the only person more whiny and pathetic than JD is Shinji, this is the closest he can come to being a success. Dr Cox is a softer version of Gendo (JD and Shinji both want that illusive hug), Kwarou is Turk, Jordan is kinda a gestalt version of Akagi and Misato, Elliot is Asuka, Carla is Yui, Ted and The Todd are Kensuke and Toji, Rei is Kim, and the Janitor...well he is Shinji and JD too.
169
170[[WMG: The Janitor is a [[TabletopGame/ChangelingTheLost Changeling]].]]
171Specifically, a Wizened Drudge. (see Winter Masques) It explains his strange powers, lack of background (taken by some Fetch probably, and who knows what he did with that), craziness and disrespect of authority, and being able to do his job so well when nobody's looking.
172
173Of course then it's completely certain that the rest of the cast are various other TabletopGame/NewWorldOfDarkness inhabitants.
174** So close. In fact the Janitor is a changeling. Specifically, he's the Changeling who was once Neil Flynn. That guy in ''Film/MeanGirls'' and ''Series/TheMiddle'' is a fetch.
175
176[[WMG: At least one incarnation of the Brain Trust represents the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse]]
177OK we have it like this
178
179* The Janitor: War his thing with JD and his general sociopathy
180* Ted: Famine his generally worn and neglected nature,
181* The Todd: Pestilence just how much of a metaphorical "plague" he is to his co-workers
182* Doug Murphy: Death. considering the fate that most of his patients met and the job he took after he quit being a doctor
183
184[[WMG: The Janitor is secretly the chairman of the board of directors]]
185He never gets into any trouble, comes and goes as he pleases, drinks on the job, and getting fired had no effect on him. He's friends with Kelso at night. He certainly doesn't do any cleaning. On more than one occasion, he has been able to manipulate Kelso in a way that indicates Kelso has to go along with it, because the Janitor is his boss. He consistently lies because to tell the truth in any way would reveal who he really was. He hangs around in the guise of the Janitor so he can keep a closer watch on how things are going in his hospital.
186* Interesting since we never see the rest of the board, we only hear about them. He probably doesn't sit in on the meetings either, and just relays his instructions to Jordan or one of his other lackeys.
187** We actually see at least one meeting of the hospital’s board in season 3 episode 4 “My Lucky Night” in which Jordan convinces them to give Dr. Cox a promotion. It’s full of old white guys and doesn’t appear to include the janitor.
188
189[[WMG: The world is viewed through JD's/Lucy's eyes]]
190This would explain why Dr. Kelso goes through VillainDecay: he starts out as the evil overlord, generally becoming less scary as JD gets more experienced and he realizes that Kelso is a cake-loving moron. This is also why Kelso has such CharacterDerailment in the last season: He's gone from being the resident villain (JD's point of view) to the old, retired doctor with dated ideas about medicine (Lucy's point of view).
191
192[[WMG: My Fallen Idol is the true last episode of Scrubs]]
193
194[[WMG: The Todd was sexually abused by both his father/uncle/brother ''and'' his mother/aunt/sister]]
195It would explain why he seems gay sometimes (because he was abused by a male family member) and straight the rest of the times (because he was also abused by a female family member).
196* Wow. Talk about UnfortunateImplications with this WMG.
197** Or, y'know, he could just be bisexual or pansexual.
198[[WMG: "Guy Love" wasn't a Hallucination.]]
199J.D. and Turk were just so excited by the idea of the patient's brain interpreting everything as song that they actually broke out into song. Which is why it is the only song from the episode to be referenced later.
200* Yes. They wrote it idly, years ago, but knew they would never be able to preform it in front of anyone without being horribly ridiculed. Then this chance came, and they seized it.
201
202[[WMG: The Janitor from this series and Clone High are the same and he regularly jumps back and forth between the two.]]
203All the stories the he tells are actually true, but they occurred in the bizarre world of Clone High. The Janitor's occasional misanthropy is his disappointment with the cruel nature of the hospital.
204
205[[WMG: The Janitor is a JustForFun/TimeLord]]
206The parallels of the name are obvious, as is the way he gets away with anything and everything. Either the cart or the van is his TARDIS. He may actually have a sonic screwdriver, or at least a sonic mop.
207
208[[WMG: Lucy is JD and Elliot's daughter, and she's gone back in time.]]
209Think about it. She's a CompositeCharacter that has many of the traits of both JD and Elliot. She is prone to {{Imagine Spot}}s, is overly nuerotic and screwed up with relationships. Why else does she get along so well with the two of them and always runs to them for help. She decided to be a doctor too and after finishing med school decided to intern when her parents were still young doctors. Note also that she calls Kelso's idea's about medicine dated.
210* It also explains why Elliot took such a liking to her so quickly. "You're like the nice sister I never had," she said.
211
212[[WMG: Denise Mahoney is actually Jennifer Dylan Cox, also back in time.]]
213If time travel is possible in the future, then why not? She has traits of both Jordan and Perry Cox, being brilliant and abrasive. She was first introduced as "Jo", but later on she's called "Denise", her father in the future told her that if she wanted the best possible mentoring experience, that she should learn from the best other doctor he ever knew.
214** Uh, she was introduced as Denise, JD gave her Jo as a nickname after the Facts of Life character
215
216[[WMG: Doug Murphy was only allowed to treat patients who were dying anyway.]]
217Ignoring the sitcom staple of having a guy in the same job as the protagonist and failing miserably, the is no way Kelso would settled any legal actions against the Hospital for an intern that inept. What was really happening is that he was knowledgeable enough to look like he was trying to be a better doctor, while Kelso stuck him with patients that were dying anyway and draining hospital resource. The hospital drags it out for as long as they can (even making him repeat a year) but it had to end sometime. Luckily all that experience with causes of death trained him to be an excellent coroner. And because they know Doug is not bright enough to catch on, they never had a gurney for the various bodies he totes around the just say they do, then when they chase him off to go collect a body they move the gurney back to whoever was using it before their ruse.
218
219[[WMG: Doug Murphy is an "Angel of Mercy" serial killer whose homicides are written off as incompetence.]]
220He is excellent at appearing to be upset about the deaths that occur under his care, but in actuality it's a cover. He comes under immense pressure as soon as he begins his internship and is tortured ceaselessly by both Kelso and Cox, leading to a psychotic break early on that expresses itself as mercy-killing. At the same time, his "nervous guy" persona enabled him to believably cover up the deaths, and he simply appeared unsuited to be a doctor, instead relocating to the morgue, where he seemingly regards cadavers as lumber rather than people.
221
222[[WMG: Laverne and Snoop Dogg Attending made out at her above-ground-pool party.]]
223In the episode "My Cuz," there's a one-off joke that Snoop and Beardface were "wiener cousins" through Nurse Roberts. A found it a bit disconcerting, because Laverne was married and probably had been for a while, seeing as they had a teenage son -- maybe the thing with Beardface happened before she got married, but she and Snoop couldn't have known each other very long because he was an intern at the beginning of the series. But then I remembered that she was having some marriage troubles with her husband in Season 4. It could very likely have been thanks to Snoop. It happened at the pool party because all of the {{Noodle Incident}}s happened there.
224
225[[WMG: The Janitor is Velika.]]
226Or at least a Great Being.
227
228[[WMG: Doug died]]
229After he gets put into a morgue drawer with the door closed in My Soul on Fire (he was depressed because he thought he was the only one not invited to the wedding), he never appears again, not even in the last fantasy, despite having been in the show since the second episode (Several characters who only appear in three episodes are in the last fantasy. Even Colin Hay is in the [[Franchise/FinalFantasy final fantasy]]!)
230
231[[WMG: Dr cox isn't jack's real father]]
232Well since Jordan DID say that he wasnt his the first time perry saw her pregnant... could be true
233
234[[WMG: Dr. Cox is a member of the Series/{{Blackadder}} Family.]]
235Cox is an utter rat bastard of a deadpan snarker who has nothing but contempt for those around him, traits he inherited from his ancestors from England.
236
237[[WMG: Dr. Cox wasn't pissed at J.D. for sleeping with Jordan, just for lying about it]]
238Cox asked J.D. if he slept with Jordan in a nonchalant manner. Had J.D. said yes, he'd just shake his head and mock him for falling for her witchcraft.
239
240[[WMG: J.D. is a clueless RealityWarper]]
241In the first season, the Janitor really ''was'' a figment of his imagination - something he dreamed up because he felt guilty about putting a penny on the door. J.D.'s powers made him real, slowly enough. At first, only J.D. could see him...then Elliot bumped on him...by the last season, he even had a wife (which was also imagined by J.D. - nobody's real name is Lady).

243The power does have a darker side - J.D. didn't like Nick, so he caused him to have a HeroicBSOD. He didn't like Molly, so she basically stopped existing (same thing that happened to the Janitor's previous family). And, after he dumped Dani, he was sick of her, so his powers turned her from a sweet awkward girl into a gross psycho - she ''claims'' she was always that way, just acting nice for him, but she didn't use to smoke (since J.D. commented on how noticeable the taste of nicotine in her mouth was) or be into violent sex. It's also noticeable that she acted nice [[UndercoverWhenAlone even when J.D. wasn't around]].

245[[WMG: Todd wasn't part of JD's fantasy in ''My Finale'']]
246
247Todd just happened to walk by while JD started to fantasize about all the people he knew at Sacred Heart, and decided to give him a "Goodbye Five, from the big dog. JD physically recoils from the high five because it's actually Todd doing it.

249[[WMG: Doug is related to [[WesternAnimation/MiloMurphysLaw Milo Murphy]] ]]
250
251Much like how Milo deals with disasters on a daily basis, Murphy's Law follows Doug around and causes hazards for him, and that causes the high death rate for his patients, as well as other incidents around Sacred Heart.

253[[WMG: The Janitor is [[Series/DeadLikeMe a grim reaper]] ]]
254
255That explains why he works at a hospital, because so many of his reaps are patients who died there, and also why he's so vague about his past, because he's a lot older than he looks.

257[[WMG: Dr. Cox killed Dr. Mickhead's wife and framed him for it]]
258
259Perry has expressed violent tendencies numerous times; making violent threats when agitated, expressing desire to have Jordan die and having a fantasy of killing Elliot. However, he couldn't kill either of these two women because he loves the former and respects the latter. So he went for the best option and killed someone he had no feelings for, while framing Mickhead whom he also dislikes for sleeping with Jordan.

261[[WMG: JD didn't let Kylie win at arm-wrestling]]
262
263In one scene, JD's relationship with his new girlfriend Kylie is contrasted with Turk's relationship with Carla, which was already a few years old. Both couple were arm-wresting and JD "let's" Kylie win to look kinder and compliment her for being strong, while Turk mercilessly beats Carla and brags, saying "This is what happens when you mess with the warrior!"
264
265But, when you consider JD's lack of physical strength in the rest of the show, it doesn't seem likely at all that he'd be able to beat her even if he wanted, so who's to say he didn't? Maybe he was beaten fair and square, and he just didn't act like a sore loser to save face.
266
267Meanwhile, Turk's victory over Carla wasn't as breezy as he made it look, which is why he was bragging so much. In fact, that's what Carla expected - she'd have lost some respect for the competitive Turk if he just let her win.
