Anthology of Interest 2 - S4-E3

Continuity mistake: There is a weird case of musical tables going on during the Professor's Nobel Prize presentation. When Professor Wernstrom stands and says 'He needs medical attention.' he is sharing a table with an African-American man (who drops his pipe) and a younger man in a green shirt. On the table is an empty retort, an empty glass, one knife and two plates with half eaten meals on them. When he stands and tells the Professor he isn't going to get the Nobel Prize there are three plates with complete meals, a full retort and a full glass and two sets of cutlery. The African-American man has regained his pipe and is at a different table, and a white, bald man has joined them.

The Honking - S3-E1

Continuity mistake: When the robot at the start is dying, the doctor opens a panel to see his "heart beat." After a couple of other shots we see the panel again and this time it's closed without anyone touching it. It's also important not to confuse the doctor closing the robots eyes with this panel.

I, Roommate - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: When Fry is watching "All My Circuits" for the first time, it shows Calculon screwing a golden nut onto the index finger of a fembot's right hand. In the very next shot, the bolt is on the middle finger of her hand. (00:03:15)

The Farnsworth Paradox - S5-E10

Continuity mistake: In the very beginning scene, where Fry and Leela are talking, there is an explosion. When some ceiling falls down there is one big bit and three small bits next to Leela's foot but then a few seconds later there is one big bit and a few small bits all in different places. (00:00:40)

Hell is Other Robots - S1-E9

Continuity mistake: When the everyone is singing and the Devil Robot is taking Bender down in the Lift, we can see that the back of the lift is grated in one close up shot, but in a far away shot it is a solid cube with no grate. (00:18:15)

Answer: The initial number is 0101100101 = 357. When reflected in a mirror, however, it reads 1010011010 = 666 (the number of the Beast). It is a parody of The Shining, where the words Red Rum are seen as the word murder in the mirror.
