Biography
Nora resided somewhere in New York, with her teenage son Tim Carpenter. She and her son had a very special bond ever since her husband died four years prior the accident.

Final Destination 2
Nora and Tim are on their way to the dentist when Kimberly Corman has a premonition of a pile up on Route 23. She blocks traffic, preventing the other drivers from entering the freeway. Nora wonders what is going, and watches in shock as the crash occurs moments. After the crash, she and her son are brought to the police station, where they learn about the curse of Flight 180, but Nora dismisses this.

That night, Nora tells her somewhat concerned son that it isn't true, and some people just need some 're-wiring'. The next day, she and her son go to a dentist's office for a routine check-up. While leaving Nora witnesses Tim's demise, which leaves her devestated. When the remaining survivors reunite for safety, Nora tells Kimberly that she no longer cares whether lives or dies, before leaving to plan her sons funeral.

Death
While standing in the elevator with Eugene Dix and an old man carrying prosthetic limbs, Officer Burke calls her phone. Startled, she drops it, and bends down to pick it up. Burke tells her that a "man with hooks" is going to kill her. Unaware that her hair is tangled in one of the prosthetic limbs, she quickly attempts to leave the elevator, but the hooks hold her back, causing her to panic. Although Eugene and the man try to untangle her hair, she runs out of the elevator, and the doors close on her neck.

Nora's body is lifted as the elevator rises. Eugene and the old man pull Nora's head inward, while Clear Rivers and Kat Jennings pull Nora's body outward. As Kat, Clear, Eugene and the old man desperately try to free her, the elevator continues to rise upwards, until the force finally decapitates her.
