The King and Queen send two schoolmates of Hamlet to spy on him. They disagree on why Hamlet is acting strange. The Queen says it is because of their over-hasty marriage, but the king prefers the story that Hamlet is lovesick over Ophelia. They hide while Hamlet comes in and starts insulting Polonius. The schoolmates come in and question him, but Hamlet is suspicious and reveals nothing. Actors come in, and Hamlet has Polonious hire them. Then he does his famous "To be or not to be" soliloquy about his internal struggles: he hates his uncle, he's angry at his mother but he's worried that the ghost might be a demon sent to trick him, so he gets the idea of using a play to prove the King's guilt.
