Am I missing something by skipping the end of episode screen

alan-wake

Whenever you finish a chapter in Alan Wake, you end up at a screen that says "End of Episode X" with some music in the background:

End of episode

I've never sat through one of these screens until they go away on their own. Am I missing out on something?

You're not missing out on any story relevant content as far as I know. I've stared at the screen when I finished Episode 1 only to realize that the only thing that plays during these screens are songs.

When the song ends, the Episode Ending texts fades into some kind of mist. The song doesn't start again. Instead, the next episode starts (beginning with the recap of the previous episode).
