How Hermes Requisitioned His Groove Back - S2-E14

Continuity mistake: Hermes is a Grade 36. But when he finishes sorting the master in-pile he is demoted because he finished two seconds early. 1.0 tells him that he's demoted to grade 38. When 1.0 uses the control to demote Hermes, the number 38 is already on Hermes badge and then quickly turns into 36 and then back into 38. (00:19:30)

How Hermes Requisitioned His Groove Back - S2-E14

Continuity mistake: When Hermes said that the form that Morgan filled out for a "regulation date that ended in regulation disappointment" was stamped only four times. The form shows three red stamp marks close to each other and a fourth one at the bottom right corner of the page by itself. Hermes then puts the form on 1.0s' desk and the first red stamp in the upper left corner is now by itself and the second and third stamp marks are now next to the fourth stamp mark. When we get a close-up of 1.0 looking at the form the stamp marks are back in their original place. (00:20:10)

A Clone of My Own - S2-E15

Continuity mistake: When Bender makes the joke about where the professor would be without all the students who love and respect him, we see the professor sitting with nothing in front of him on the table. When it cuts, two glasses and a blue cup suddenly appear. (00:02:35)

Mortug

A Clone of My Own - S2-E15

Continuity mistake: When we see the professor's clone inside the tube there is a panel attached to a metal post going down to the bottom of the tube. When the professor hits the button to empty the tube of fluid it cuts to a close-up of the clone's feet and the metal post is suddenly gone. (00:08:05)

Mortug

A Clone of My Own - S2-E15

Continuity mistake: When Professor Farnsworth places the envelope containing his holo-message on the table, we get a quick glimpse of the front of the envelope, and it is blank, without any writing on it. He then walks away with the Sunset Squad robot, without taking time to address the envelope. When the crew finds the message, the words "For my crew" appear on the envelope.

Twotall

Bender Gets Made (a.k.a. Bendfellas) - S2-E17

Continuity mistake: As Bender goes up to the Oilade stand there are four full glasses on the table and a large jar next to them. Bender drinks one of the glasses of oil and puts it down. He picks up another glass leaving two full glasses and one empty one on the table. The following shot there are now three full glasses. After this there are still three full glasses but the glasses have moved to the other side of the stand. The next shot the jar of oil disappears. (00:10:45)

Lummie

Rebirth - S6-E1

Continuity mistake: As the power builds up in Bender, his left eye pops out, making him a cyclops, subsequently being eaten by the Cyclops eater. After the monster dies, Bender comes out, and has two eyes in the long shot, but puts his left eye back in the close up.

Answer: Yes Leela knew from early on that Fry had feelings for her. They were pretending to be a couple in 'A Flight to Remember' from season 1 and Fry tried to get on dates with Leela ever since. She just didn't show signs of the feelings maybe being mutual before some of the later episodes.
