After Mr. Janitor cleans a few rooms, it will dispose of 500+ caps in the garbage can closest to the room one found it in. Do not talk to other robots while it is cleaning. This may cause it to stop cleaning and attack. Mr. Janitor will not activate a second time. After activating Mr. Janitor, wait outside the room for a few minutes, then he will come back and put the caps in the garbage can outside the door with the 250 to 600 caps.
