it is ironic that Jack used fire to capture Ralph becuase be was trying to find Ralph, which he did. Also the fire caused a ship to come to the idland because they saw the jungle on fire. With the ship stopping at the island and an officer coming on the beach, saved Ralph who was coming so close to a violent death. The officer also stopped the other boys from continuing on to kill Ralph. The ship saves Ralph and alll of the remaining boys. Seeing an adult and being saved, makes all of the boys emotional.


Why did the beast plague the boys?

None of the boys actually see the beast. they see the figure of it on the hill and it just implements itself as an ideology on the island. basically, jack and ralph climb up the mountain, see a bulk figure/shape, which was actually the dead parachuter that landed on the island..


Why are the twins examining Ralph curiously as though they were seeing him for the first time?

Because they have just noticed what Piggy noticed some time earlier: that Ralph is losing his capacity to think and concentrate on the importance of being rescued. He keeps having 'blanks' when his mind drifts or clouds and he cannot remember what he was saying or why.
