In "Lord of the Flies," when Ralph asks Piggy about his father, Piggy responds by saying that his father is dead. He mentions that his father was a police officer and that he has no one to look after him on the island. This exchange highlights Piggy's vulnerability and the lack of parental guidance that contributes to the boys' descent into savagery.
