Futurama

Mars University - S2-E2

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Fry and the professor is trying to make Gunter choose between the banana and the hat, the distance between Fry, the professor, and Leela changes noticeably between shots. First Fry and the professor are wide apart with Leela behind Fry. Then after Leela hears the robot-house's boat approaching, they're all suddenly down by the lake standing next to each other.

Mars University - S2-E2

Continuity mistake: When Gunter is trying to figure out where the hat goes, the banana disappears and reappears between shots. When Gunter finally figures out the hat goes on the head the banana is nowhere to be seen, yet when he needs it to do some calculations the banana is on the ground right next to him.

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)

Brannigan Begin Again - S2-E6

Continuity mistake: After Brannigan has explained the plan to attack the Neutral Planet, Fry turns around in his chair and you can see the head rest goes together with the chair. When it cuts the head rest sits on a bar attached to the chair. (00:16:35)

Mortug

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

When Aliens Attack - S2-E3

Continuity mistake: When the filming of the fake TV show begins, Fry says "Lights." and Bender dramatically opens his chest cabinet to display a large stage light. The camera cuts to Fry, who says "Camera one." and then the camera cuts back to Bender, whose chest is now closed again. There wasn't enough time to shut his chest between the shots and we would have heard it anyway, given the amount of noise the stage light gives off.

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.
