Lord of the Flies Page #4

Synopsis: After a plane crash in the ocean, a group of military students reach an island. Ralph organizes the boys, assigning responsibilities for each one. When the rebel Jack Merridew neglects the fire camp and they lose the chance to be seen by a helicopter, the group split under the leadership of Jack. While Ralph rationalizes the procedures, Jack returns to the primitivism, using the fear for the unknown (in a metaphor to the religion) to control the other boys, and hunting and chasing pigs, stealing the possession of Ralph's group and even killing people.

(bird squawks)

About time.

- You guys by yourselves?

- Yep.

- Listen, you two, you have to stay awake.

- Give us a break.

What do you think? You have to be 1 1

or you can't stand a watch?

Just stay awake.

What's the big deal?

There's nobody left except Ralph.

They're scared of the monster.

You said we didn't believe

in the monster. You said.

I'm pretty sure we don't.

(whispers) Sam! Eric!

It's me.

You shouldn't be around here, Ralph.

You're not allowed. The hunters

are gonna come after you.

Yeah. And Jack had Roger

sharpen his stick at both ends.

If that happens, it'll be

because you let it happen.

If you don't stand up to him

you're just another one of his slaves.

(Jack) Hey, keep alert down there!

(hunter) Light another one.

We gotta smoke him out.

(hunter) He's over here!

(yells)

(hunter whistles)

(hunter whistles)

See anything over there?

No.

(both) Nothing.

Jack!

(Jack) Get him!

(shouting)

What are you guys doing?
