- Act 2:Hamlet followed the ghost and it is revealed it's the spirit of Late King Hamlet.

Upon hearing this, Hamlet wants revenge.
- The rest is silence...

They hear a noise from behind the curtain and Hamlet stabs it, hoping that it was Claudius hiding. It turns out that it was Polonius, Ophelia's and Laertes' father.
- Act 4:Gertrude tells Polonius that Hamlet killed Polonius, but Claudius is worried because he could've been the one who died. Word spreads to Ophelia, who goes crazy because her boyfriend left her and killed her father. She commits suicide. Laertes and Claudius then come up with a plot to take revenge and kill Hamlet.
- If that doesn't work then I'll poison his drink!
- Act 5:Laertes and Hamlet duel and Hamlet scores a point. King Claudius drops a "pearl" into a goblet to celebrate, but it's the poison. Queen Gertrude drinks it unknowingly, and she dies.
