- Rising Action
- Jack
- While a plane is attempting to evacuate school boys from a war torn England, the plane crashes, killing the only adult and leaving the numerous boys stranded on an uninhabited island. Piggy and Ralph find each other on the island before attracting more boys. Once the boys are gathered, they attempt to build an organized society with a chief.
- Climax
- Ralph is named chief, and Jack becomes a hunter. Jack is upset for not being chosen as chief. He kills his first pig and has a drive to kill more. Fear is introduced into the society when the littluns mention the "Beastie" who they claim to have seen.
- Falling Action
- The boys split into two groups after Ralph and Jack get into an argument. Some boys follow Jack with him becoming a chief, while others, including Piggy, stay with Ralph. Simon, another boy who stayed behind, is killed after he comes out of the woods, as everyone thinks he is a beast. Ralph and his tribe later raid Ralph's base, stealing Piggy's glasses to make fire. The boys go to retrieve the glasses.
- Resolution
- While attempting to get Piggy's glasses back, Ralph and Jack get into a fight and some of Ralph's tribe is captured. Roger, a member of Jack's tribe, rolls a large boulder down the cliff that Ralph and Piggy are on, knocking Piggy off the cliff into the rocky water below.
- With no older kids left in Ralph's tribe, he finds a hiding spot. Ralph's tribe begins to hunt him, however, and uses fire to draw him out. Ralph takes off running with Jack's tribe chasing him. Ralph, followed by the violent tribe, runs to the beach.
- After running to the beach, Ralph and a Naval officer spot one another. The other boys trickle out of the forest behind Ralph. When the officer asks about what happened, all the boys begin to cry.
