Only in different branches. In all branches their spin will match. Bob and 
Alice have no trans-branch interaction, which would introduce non linearity in 
the wave.

The fact is that, experimentally and theoretically, a singlet state describe 
all spin result being accessible with equal probability. Its description in 
some special base is misleading here.
