Hamlet Act V

WOW WHAT AN ENDING!!! Hamlet finds out that his father was poisoned by Claudius (officially).  Hamlet is sent off basically to death.  Hamlet comes back to Denmark because pirates that captured his ship released him.  Hamlets friends Gild and Rosen, are the ones killed instead of Hamlet because Hamlet switches the letters.  Hamlet comes back and finds out Ophelia drowned and gets in a fight with Laertes over who loved her more.  Hamlet and Laertes are later placed into a fencing match but with swords and Laertes poisons the tip of his sword to throw a fatal stab.  Claudius poisons the holy cup and tries to get Hamlet to drink form it but Hamlet says its not time to drink yet.  So Hamlet's mother starts drinking, thus poisoned.  Hamlet and Laertes start fighting, stab each other and are both poisoned because they switched swords by accident.  Hamlet then sees that his mother is poisoned by Claudius and kills him with all the poisons.  At the end they are all dead with madness and prince of Norway claims all the kingdom for himself.
