-What reaons do Rosencrantz and Guildenstern have to spy on Hamlet?  If Hamlet is their friend why do they do it?
       1.  Do you remember the Queen's line "you shall recieve such thanks            to a King's remembrance"  that is where the answer lies.  The                  friends are merely players.  They are the days men.
                                               -Joe McCarthy
       2.  You makr R & G seem very simple.  If the parents of a old                      school friend called you and asked for your help.  And they                      promise you a good reward for your time.  This is how R & G                 feel.                              -Baudelaire

-Do you believe Hamlet is really insane when he goes to visit Ophelia?  Is he going crazy or trying to make a point? 
        1.  I think it's probably two fold:  Ophelia will probably go tell                      Daddy all about it, so it could be part of his plot.  It also could be             a reflection of the genuine depression, uncertainty, anger, adn                   sadness.  He could also be trying to make Ophelia feel bad.
       
-Polnoius seems anxious and willing to help the King "contain" and "figure out" Hamlet.  Do you think Polonius knows Claudius killed Hamlet senior. 
        1.  Of course he knows he was chosen by Claudius to head up the                 new governement in Denmark.
