In this scene, Ophelia is being told by her brother and father to stay away from Hamlet. They try to explain to her that Hamlet has alot more freedom than her as he is the future king so he can do as he pleases. Her father, Polonius, tries to tell her that the love that Hamlet is showing her is just false love. He says it’s because Hamlet is young and he doesn’t know what he is doing. Ophelia doesn’t seem to try and protest about what her father is saying. Finally, Polonius just tells Ophelia to stay away from Hamlet and talk to him less, and again, she doesn’t protest.
