Personal Response:

This is the best quarter out of them all, this is when the most of the stuff happens. Piggy tries to tell the boys how important it is to get rescued and survive when all the boys are thinking about is killing and having the power. Eventually piggy dies and Ralph is all alone. The boys go looking for Ralph and set the island on fire. Luckily to Ralph a nearby Marine ship see the island on fire and comes over to look and Ralph is saved.
