Lord of the Flies

Ralph: Okay, listen up. Whoever holds the conch gets to speak. That's the rule.

Larry: Is this like assembly, sir?

Ralph: Yeah. Except anybody who wants to speak gets to

Piggy: But not before they get the conch

Ralph: Right. There doesn't seem to be anybody here except us

Jack Merridew: And a pig

Pablo: It was a wild boar!

Rapper: No! It was a regular pig! Big, but regular!

Piggy: If it was a regular pig then it must have got here from people

Rapper: Yeah, if there's pigs, there's people!

[Rapper snorts, and the other boys laugh]

Ralph: Ok, cadets, like I said, this island's probably uninhabited

Jack Merridew: But we don't know, we've gotta explore more

Ralph: Right, there's a lot of things we gotta do. But the main thing is we're not by ourselves, we've got Captain Benson

Piggy: Can I speak?

[Takes the conch from Ralph]

Piggy: The most important thing is who knows we're here? Nobody knows we're here. They know where we were going, but they don't know where we are because we never got where we were going

Larry: Where were we going?

Piggy: We were going home

Ralph: I'm sure they're out looking for us. We should set up some kind of steady signal like a fire and keep it going all the time. And we're gonna have to have rules

Jack Merridew: Can I have the conch?

[Takes the conch from Ralph]

Jack Merridew: Yes, Ralph's right, we've definitely gotta make a fire
