I respectfully disagree . The evaporator is in the passenger FRONT seat area therefore the front seat floor carpet would be wet also . The question states that it is not wet . My guess is a door seal failure IE : door gasket seal or window seal . Bottom of door gasket probably held and the top area leaked causing a flood inside the back floor passenger area.

Me too: Also could be the windshield. Is the car absolutely flat? Are you SURE all sunroof drain holes are clear?
