1. In this scene opens with Ophelia, Hamlet's love, being warned by her brother Laertes about her relationship with Hamlet. He claims that eventually he will have to marry someone of higher social status and that she might as well move on. They go into their father Polinious' home where she is only told exactly the same thing by her father. At the end of the scene he condemns her from having anything else to do with Hamlet.
3. I really don't understand why it was such a big deal that Hamlet and Ophelia were together. Hamlet had just lost his father and you would think that Polonious would be more sensitive towards what exactly he was going through. My other question is what kind of role will Ophelia and her family play in the story?
7. I really do hate my father right now. I mean Hamlet just lost his father and now I have to tell him that he can't see me anymore. He is just so unhappy that his mother is already marrying his Uncle. I mean in my opinion that is just kind of creepy. I guess I understand what my brother was saying about Hamlet having to marry someone of higher status but I thought possibly things could be different between us.
