The boys light the island on fire to drive Ralph out of the forest. Marines/army people see it and go to the shore where Ralph runs into one. He thinks they are crazy boys playing a game, but Ralph just breaks down and cries, along with the others. Crying for the innocence they lost on the island.

The only plan that the boys have to increase their chances of rescue was the one suggested by Ralph, to build a fire on the mounatin top to attract the attention of any passing ships or planes.

The boys weren't rescued because the hunters were supposed to keep the fire going but they went hunting instead so the signal fire burned out.
