Susan is a talking and singing boil on Turanga Leela's right butt-cheek that was revealed in "Attack of the Killer App". She has always tried to hide it until Philip J. Fry discovered and filmed it. Leela asks Fry to delete the video, but to win a challenge against Bender, Fry sent the video to Twitcher. Soon, everybody knows about the boil, but, just as quickly, everybody forgets the story.
It is possible that this is no ordinary blemish, but another of Leela's mutations, similar to how Andy Goldman's mutation is presented.
