Detailed explanation-1: -What do Polonius and Laertes warn Ophelia about in Act I? That Gertrude is jealous of her beauty and will try to have her removed from court. That she should be careful to preserve her virtue in her dealings with Hamlet and should not believe all that he tells her.
Detailed explanation-2: -Ophelia’s dilemma is salient in this scene. Both Laertes and Polonius tell her that the man that she loves is using her, that he will discard her, and that she should not trust her own heart. She is a dutiful daughter.
Detailed explanation-3: -Polonius sternly echoes Laertes’ advice and forbids Ophelia to associate with Hamlet anymore. He tells her that Hamlet has deceived her in swearing his love and that she should see through his false vows and rebuff his affections. Ophelia pledges to obey.
Detailed explanation-4: -Synopsis: In Polonius’s chambers, Laertes says good-bye to his sister, Ophelia, and tells her not to trust Hamlet’s promises of love. Polonius joins them, sends Laertes off, then echoes Laertes’s warnings to Ophelia, finally ordering her not to see Hamlet again.
Detailed explanation-5: -For what reasons does Laertes say Ophelia should not be with Hamlet? Laertes says Ophelia shouldn’t be with Hamlet because Hamlet is a prince and won’t have a choice in who he marries later on, so she might have her heart broken.
