Plot
God sits in his couch, next to St. Peter, wondering where everyone is after his remoderning Heaven, and says that they need to get more people in there and they start searchign for who to admit in.
Ned is next shown talking about "Who will get into Heaven" to kids, with themself imagining how they'll die and go to Heaven, and then explaining how he was raised without religion by his family and his youth. He started selling trampolines after the Apollo 14 moonlanding's bounce fever and making lots of money, only to discover they're a death bringer for kids after 500 consecutive bounces. The next possible victim was going to be Homer, but Ned moved him out of the way, getting electrocuted. After getting up, he woke up in Heaven next to Jesus Christ, telling him to take the road to redemption. Back on Earth, Ned is reborn, having given a second chance, following God's path.
Next in the classroom, Marge tells the story of her grandmother, Genevieve Bouvier, which was an atheist, married to Meaux, a Nazi collaborator and cafe owner. U.S. Paratrooper got trapped in their bar with incoming Germans in the cellar, and since she doesn't believe in Heaven after death, she makes them appear as French waiters, saving them. However once the German try to kidnap her, they start to kill all of them, and finally giving Moe's grandfather a proper kiss and going to their bedroom together. Marge tells the kids that this story tells them that atheists can do great things too. After this, God agrees to take atheists in Heaven too.
Gautama Buddha proposed buddhist next, introducing Lisa, which tells the story of the princess Siddmartha, searching a way to better her boring life, finding children playing even though they've nothing, contrast to her having everything and living like that, and disguises herself as a poor boy, visiting the land outside her palace, and finally finding enlightenment at the end after a very long time.
After watching the three stories, God agrees to accept all the good souls are welcome in Heaven. In the end, a thunder was heard by the Flanders family, with Ned saying it's just angels bowling. A bowling pin crashes their house, and St. Peter says sorry to them, but they consider it a blessing. God comments he's just a kissup.
