MS and MS Smith Barney?

So I got interview offers from both Morgan Stanley Fixed Income and Morgan Stanley Smith Barney Markets Group. These are on-campus interviews and I do not know much about MS Smith Barney Markets other than the fact that they mostly deal with the retail brokers. The interviews are scheduled on the same day, in the same place, only 2 hours apart. (hopefully by different employees).

Do I need to decline this offer from MS Smith Barney in favor of the MS FICC, or can I still keep it? What do I have to say if an interview from either MS asks me why(or whether) you applied to another MS? FYI, I'm mostly for S&T opportunities and hope to work in the sell-side of the options, commodities or fx desks.

And also, if someone can shed some light on what kind of activities interns usually do at MS Smith Barney, I would really appreciate it.
