Revealing mistake: When the Professor comes over to the Robot to ask "How would you like to do us a favor?", look closely at the mesh like part of the Robot's "face", just left of the vertical black bar. You can see the Robot actor's eye blinking and looking around. When he nods, you can see the outline of the actor's head.
