Is this true or will he need to sand them, putty and re-paint?

Well, I can offer one anecdote:

I painted the bedroom, rolled on latex, and everything looked fine.
Maybe a half hour later, small bubbles started forming everywhere in
the still tacky paint. Ohmygosh! Catastrophe! I tried popping a couple
of the bubbles, but that just seemed to make it worse. Not knowing
what to do, I left the room to sulk at the prospect of having to strip
the paint off the walls of the entire room. Next morning, all the
bubbles were gone, and everything looked fine.

... and they lived happy ever after?
