Lost: Down the Hatch | Season 3 Episode 12: “Par Avion” Josh Wigler (@roundhoward) and Mike Bloom (@AMikeBloomType) are fishing for birds. Does one fish for birds? Either way, they’re caught in the net known as “Par Avion,” the final Claire Littleton flashback episode on LOST. In “Par Avion,” Claire decides to rescue the gang with the help of some winged friends. But her non-winged friends Charlie and Desmond have other plans in mind. In the past, we learn about Claire’s father, and elsewhere on the island, the sonar pings strike back. About Down the Hatch … LOST: Down the Hatch is a full-tilt spoiler-filled rewatch of LOST.
