Well, there you go, "pre-ordering" stuff. Shame on you! The Grammar Patrol will be around soon to see you. :D
Get on the floor and place your hands behind your back. The modifier "soon" should not come between the infinitive phrase and the verb phrase that the infinitive phrase is modifying. "Soon" would more appropriately be placed directly ahead of the verb phrase, as in "Soon, the Grammar Patrol will be around to..." or "The Grammar Patrol will soon be around to...".
Actually, I think he merely forgot a comma "The Grammar Patrol will be around soon, to ...".
