SPOILERS --
I swear I remember scenes where Michael is alone or just with Janet (or otherwise outside the presence of the Tortured-4), and he was always still in "Good Michael" character and pretending he was flummoxed about "Good Place" issues.
Can you verify there actually weren't any such scenes, and the show deftly always had a Torture-4 around when Michael was on screen?
Maybe I'm not the best person to answer, but I did rewatch a few episodes and I don't remember Michael being alone with Janet. But even if he was, Janet is not one of the group. Michael said she was borrowed by the real Good Place, right? Or reprogrammed or something.
-Who is it?
-It's Grandpa. And it sounds like he's gotten into the horseradish again.
Yea he said he stole her from the real Good Place and she is compeltely seperate from teh Bad Place individuals. So aroudn her he'd probably still act becuase if she knew the truth she could reveal it.
shareHe didn't say that. He said she came from the general mainframe. He didn't mention the good place.

This Janet was a stolen from the Good Place. She was never in on the loop, she thought she was in the Good Place just like the other four.
shareThe first lone Michael scene was with Shawn. You could also interpret his all knowing comment as joking.
shareI think there was one scene where he was having a "private" conversation with Janet, but Tahani was snooping on them from the other room. It was in the episode where he left himself logged in, and Tahani saw her bottom of the barrel ranking, so he had intended to be overheard by her.
(I'm only a few episodes in and will keep looking for more)
