Claire's tranquility in The Bear has been intentionally written to contrast with other characters, and it's not due to underdevelopment. Claire's reduced presence in The Bear season 3 highlighted her importance in maintaining balance among chaotic personalities. Claire's character, described as "Peace" by Carmy, plays a crucial role in bringing a unique element to The Bear's storyline.

The Bear season 3 includes a line from Carmen "Carmy" Berzatto that acknowledges the audience's view of Claire Dunlap is more accurate than they realize, if not a little misunderstood. Molly Gordon's character has been criticized by portions of The Bear's fan base for a very specific reason, but Carmy's appraisal of her perfectly explains why Claire conducts herself the way she does. While she may have been used sparingly in The Bear season 3's cast, it's still clear to see that Gordon's character has a very specific role in the show.
