To prove that the ghost was telling the truth and that Claudius did indeed kill King Hamlet, Prince Hamlet developed a plan. The plan was to catch Claudius expressing guilt for murdering King Hamlet. When the players arrived, they put on a play that resembled the actions of Claudius. First, the King would die of poison by his brother. Then after the brother became King, he would marry the Queen (his sister-in-law). Prince Hamlet would watch Claudiusfs actions to see if he showed any guilt, if so, then Hamlet would be convinced that the ghost was telling the truth. As suspected, Claudius was very disturbed and he ordered that the play be stopped. Hamlet then realized that the ghost was right and Claudius did murder his father.

Hamletfs decision to feign madness is a sane one, taken to confuse his enemies and hide his intentions.

If a person in a rational state of mind decides to act as if he is crazy, to abuse the people around him regardless of whether he loves those people or hates them, and to give free expressions of all his thoughts against his society, when he starts to carry those actions out, will it even be possible to say at what point he stops pretending to be crazy and starts actually being crazy?
