Look... that is TL; DR - in its entirety, at least. I might go back later because I enjoyed the show very much. But I did catch the part where you claim her whole story is bullshit and made up? Because I didn't get that at all.

No, their "little dance" didn't stop the shooting but perhaps it will heal the victim(s). As shown in the previous episode when they healed Scott and the Sheriffs wife.

OA's intentions were not to share her story but to use them to open a portal of some sort. She succeeded in her mission in that by experiencing near death (the gunshot) she could reach the others (or at least Khatun) and find answers.

That's what makes it so good. Brit Marling certainly deserves an award for creativity.

We all (or at least most of us) want to know what happens after we die. Or if coming back to life is a choice we make consciously (so to speak) or not. It's an interesting perspective to me.

If you enjoy stuff like that and have a dark sense of humor watch the show Dead Like Me. The main cast is a group of "grim reapers" who meet up at Der Waffle House and their job is to "pop" people's souls before they die and help them find their "lights". The reapers get a post-it note with a name, address, and time of death. It aired 2003-2004 but it's still a great show that was cancelled way before it's time.
