"Cancer" (incorrectly pronounced "Sanser" by the Superjail inmates/convicts) is a little girl from the Superjail episode "Mr. Grumpy Pants."
Personality[]
"Cancer" is a sweet, fun-loving child who is afflicted with cancer, the inmates mistake the word "CANCER" on her bracelet for her name.
She is seen in the season 4 premiere when everyone thinks of their worst memories.
Relation to Other Characters[]
- Ash - They became best friends during the episode, and numerous times, Ash protected her.
- Alice - Cancer calls Alice "Mommy." Afterwards, Alice gives Cancer a makeover and prolonged Cancer's life by accident numerous times (through darts) and on purpose once.
- Warden's Inner Child - He tried to kill her numerous times without success.
Trivia[]
- According to the memorial picture at the end of the episode, she was four years old. (2004-2008)
- She can talk, but does so very little, only saying "love you!" when an inmate is unable to read it from a storybook and "Mommy" towards Alice.
- Cancer was accidentally let into Superjail through a bag of pills stolen by Jacknife. Jailbot carried Jacknife into Superjail, along with the pill bag, and Cancer was originally meant to be incinerated, but was saved by Ash.
- In the pilot episode, "Bunny Love", the little girl in the backseat of the car that Jacknife steals in the beginning looks a lot like Cancer. Her inferred father dies, creating a backstory that ties her to Superjail before "Mr. Grumpy-Pants" which explains why she was in the orphanage. This shows a generally rough life, knowing that her father was probably her last parent and Jacknife (the person who brought her into Superjail in the aforementioned "Mr. Grumpy-Pants") killed him. Interestingly, Cancer's early appearance in "Bunny Love" had a headband while Cancer in "Mr. Grumpy Pants" had a butterfly hair clip instead. Her T-shirt even said "I love bunnies" (the word was actually a heart) on it. But this would change to just be the head of a bunny after she sees Jailbot capturing of Jacknife in the pet store.
- According to one of the series' creators, Christy Karacas, on an Instagram post, Early designs of Cancer had her as Jacknife's daughter.
- The Superjail creators said that, if the show was renewed, they would probably do an episode where Cancer comes back as a ghost. This later proven true with a quick cameo in episode 2. Yet again in episode 6, she only makes a cameo.
- Out of all the killings and deaths, The Warden's Father and her are the only known deaths that remain canon.
- During the Season 2 episode "Mayhem Donor", just after The Warden drills into the underground volcano using his drilling robot, a blue ghost of Cancer can be seen reading a book to Ash while deep beneath the earth.
- In the intro of the Season 3 episode "Oedipus Mess", there is a memorial statue of Cancer that is seen after Jailbot hauls Jacknife away. There is a plaque that reads "Cancer Memorial Park 2004-2008." This statue appears at a cancer memorial park that appears inside a hospital.
- In the episode "Terrorarium", a little girl resembling Cancer appears as a missing child on a carton of milk in Jared's refrigerator.
- A giant version of Cancer appears in "Superhell!" as a projection of Ash's saddest memory.
