Hamlet: Act 4

Claudius suggests to send Hamlet away and excuse him for Polonius's death. 
Hamlet states to rozencranz and guildenstern who do you think you are, I'm the prince.
Claudius plans to have agents in England to kill Hamlet.
Since Claudius already knows that Hamlet knows, Hamlet does not need to care how he talks now. He's a man.
Reflect on mistakes and learn.
Gentleman suggests Ophelia is crazy.
Claudius worries about Ophelia and Laertes reaction to excusing Hamlet from their father's death. 
Horatio receives a letter that Hamlet is not on his way to England.
Letters are also delivered to the king with Laertis in presence declaring his promise to avenge Polonius's death. King Hamlet also promises to act by poisoning Hamlet's drink if Laertis poisoned sword doesn't kill him.
Queen Gertrude tells Claudius and Laertis that Ophelia drowned.
