Piggy and Ralph decide to hold an assembly. They are afraid, but what must be done must be done. Ralph almost forgets the purpose of the fire-- this is significant because it shows that he's going crazy.
Once they get past Roger, they talk to Jack, trying to get back Piggy's glasses and to convince him that they need the fire. It doesn't really work.
Eventually, Piggy gets frustrated with their childish ways of handling things. He gives them a big, arrogant speach, and Jack hurls a boulder at Piggy. As it hits him, the conch breaks into a thousand pieces. Piggy falls off the cliff to his death.
A literary study on William Golding's classic novel 'Lord of the Flies'.
