How did Jack respond to being called a thief? Why did he react this way?
"We won't be painted. We aren't savages."
What did Ralph do to the pig skull? Why?
Final discussion of the book: the confrontation between Jack and Ralph, Piggie's death, Ralph's confrontation with the Lord of the Flies and the rescue which, ironically, happened as a result of Jack setting the island on fire. The parallel of their rescue by military personnel with what occurred on the island was also discussed.
