The boys begin to realize that living on this island is not going to be very fun. Ralph and Simon construct shelters for everyone, while Jack tries to kill his first pig. All the other boys go and play in the ocean or sleep. Ralph begins to become frustrated because all of the other boys won't work. His leadership skills seem to be slipping because he cannot seem to get the boys to do what he wants. Simon is becoming more and more withdrawn. This is a sharp contrast to what at first he came across as. He seemed at first very outgoing, but this may have just been a cover for something that he is hiding. Jack seems to be becoming obsessed with sticking and killing a pig. He only talks of killing pigs and every thought he has includes pigs in some way. This obsession may have started because of the boredom of living on the island. The pigs offer a hobby that help focus him away from other things.
