Perotta cowrote the teleplay, so I'm sure he's fine with it. Nora's explanation of the other side of the Sudden Departure should be treated as just another of the many explanations of the Sudden Departure that we'll never know are true or not. There's a reason why the show didn't show Nora on the otherside, and it's probably not just because they didn't have the budget. We're not supposed to know if whaf she's saying is true.
