Ralph- In this chapter Ralph hosts a meeting with the whole group. In it, Ralph confronts and tells Jack and his hunters of what an awful job they are doing at getting drinking water, keeping up the signal and even keeping up to the designated toilet area. Not only the hunters but also all the other boys in the group. After getting a response where all the boys except Piggy and Simon, leave the meeting and walk away to enjoy their feast, Ralph feels like giving up his leadership role. Piggy then tells Ralph that the whole group would need his advice on how to do things around the island. This shows the frustration Ralph is going through and how much he is trying for everyone to listen to orders and go back in to order.
Jack- At this point the reader can clearly see that Jack's character has changes since the first time the reader read about him. For instance when Ralph hosts the meeting and informs Jack about his lack in leadership, Jack doesn't accept it he just walks away chanting the hunters "song".
Theme- At this point things seem to have gone out of control and the leadership seems to have been delegated to Jack. All the boys feel that Jack is right and now seem to follow him. Not knowing that they could have been rescued by now. From this Ralph feels like giving up his leadership but is stopped by Piggy and Simon.
