Hamlet Scene ii

The Second scene starts out in King Claudius's Court and the conversation drifts to the fact that Hamlet still seems sad about his Father's death. Then Claudius has a monlouge where he tells the court that Death is tough but life is for the living and that " we should focus on Fortinbras."  It sounds like he's tryhing to distact Hamlet from King Hamlet's death, Interesting. But Hamlet just plays it off as though he's happy even though we learn in his soliloquy that he is pretty upset. So Then Hamlet talks to Horatio and learns that a ghost like figure with a striking resemblance is wandering the grounds at night. That's basically it.
