A crucial time when Ralph could have and should have exerted his authority was at the end of chapter 5: Beast from Water, when Jack said 'Bollocks to the rules." Ralph should have reminded everyone who was in charge and then insisted that they back him up when he ordered Jack to shut up and sit down. Instead by allowing Jack to disobey the rules he undermined both the rules and his own authority.
