Detailed explanation-1: -He asks Horatio to watch the King and note his reaction to a specific speech in Murder of Gonzago. If the play does not reveal Claudius as the killer, Hamlet promises Horatio that he will admit to having seen a “damnèd ghost” rather than the honest spirit of his late father.
Detailed explanation-2: -Having told Horatio what he learned from the ghost-that Claudius murdered his father-he now asks him to watch Claudius carefully during the play so that they might compare their impressions of his behavior afterward. Horatio agrees, saying that if Claudius shows any signs of guilt, he will detect them.
Detailed explanation-3: -He asks Horatio to observe Claudius’s looks during the scene in which the murderer pours poison into the king’s ear so that afterwards they can compare notes and judge the truth of the Ghost’s story.
Detailed explanation-4: -What was the King’s reaction to the play, and what did Hamlet and Horatio decide his reaction meant? Claudius stops the play. Hamlet and Horatio decide that this means the King is guilty of poisoning King Hamlet like the ghost said.
