"Claire-a Culpa" is an orchestral piece on the Season 3 soundtrack. It plays at the end of the episode "Par Avion".

Scene descriptionEdit

In a flashback, Claire visits her mother in the hospital. She apologizes for their angry conversation in the car before her accident.

In the present, Charlie reads the note Claire wrote, and they attach it to a seagull's leg. They release the bird, which joins its flock.

Kate, Sayid and Locke, meanwhile, reach the Barracks. They think they see Jack fleeing, but is actually playing football with Tom.

InfluencesEdit

The piece's first movement is a variation on the theme from Claire's theme. The second movement features the Others' motif, Ben's theme, and Jack's motif.

Title significanceEdit

"Mea culpa" is Latin for "I'm sorry." The title is thus dog Latin for "Claire is sorry."
