He stays after the boys have left the fighting ground and the "lord of the flies" speaks to him. "You are a silly little boy', Just an ignorant, silly little boy" The boys have all reached the point of cracking up because the "lord of the flies" is the actually beast. The beast is just a figment of their imagination due to the fact of the occurrences and goings on within the island. All in which are evil.
