The continuing travels of Mr. Smith: part the second, in which Mr. Smith goes to Hell

We rejoin our hero, still deeply loved, after passing through the Red Door

            After dropping

                     through an hole in the floor

            To another plane in the multiverse

                      they say its Hell

                                         but it could be worse...

                                                                                                           

 

“Welcome to Hell, Mr. Smith. We’ll need to complete your IAED before we can begin.”

“My IA-fucking what?”

“Oh, I’m sorry! You’re not familiar with our anagrams yet, I should have realized. It’s your Initial Application for Eternal Damnation, I – A – E – D for short.”

“Well, okay, I guess. What is it, like a profile page or something?”

“Umm, not exactly. There are actually two parts. The first is an oral interview. There are no correct/incorrect answers on this part; it is simply intended to help a sort of, er..how shall we say? A psychological profile, I guess should be the best way to describe it. Shall we begin?”

“Do I have a choice?”

“No. You do not.”

“Alright then. Go.”

“Splendid! We shall begin with the following question: What does the legal principle of innocent until proven guilty mean to you?”

“It means that if you are smart enough to commit a crime that leaves no evidence to convict you of said crime, there is always a chance to get away with it. This means that there are no innocents. There are only the dishonest and the lucky.”

“Alright, Mr. Smith. I believe we’re done here.”

“What? That’s it?”

“Oh yes, Mr. Smith. You've nailed it! Welcome aboard!”
