Frank's Bad Day Part IX

"Leslie, whats the difference between SMI & Purgatory?"
"Which version do you want?"
"The short version...I`m beggin` ya."
"Oh, since you asked so nicely...", she tilted her head and grinned slyly.
"SMI and Purgatory are both places where people are prepared for Heaven. The difference is that SMI does this by interfering for good in the lives of people on earth, whereas Purgatory uses more 'classical' methods of preparation. I can't go into more specifics than that until you go through orientation."
After making such a big deal of the long explanations, Frank was trying to seem satisfied with this crumb of information. Before he could try to make any small talk with Leslie, the bus slowed to a stop. Charon's voice came from the front of the bus, "Ok everyone, move to the right side of the bus. We have a pick up of some lost souls, you know the drill. Frank, you sit next to Leslie, and you do EXACTLY what she tells you. Do you understand me?"
"Yes, I understand."
"Good man. Nothing to worry about if you do what you're told."
