Detailed explanation-1: -As promised, Polonius arrives in Gertrude’s room before Hamlet and hides himself behind an arras.
Detailed explanation-2: -In Gertrude’s room, Polonius hides behind a tapestry. Hamlet’s entrance so alarms Gertrude that she cries out for help. Polonius echoes her cry, and Hamlet, thinking Polonius to be Claudius, stabs him to death.
Detailed explanation-3: -Finally, Hamlet reveals that Polonius’s body is under the stairs near the castle lobby, and the king dispatches his attendants to look there. The king tells Hamlet that he must leave at once for England, and Hamlet enthusiastically agrees.
Detailed explanation-4: -That is the order, Polonius claims, that has led poor Hamlet into madness. Polonius then suggests that he and Claudius hide themselves behind a needlework wall hanging so they can eavesdrop on the couple when Ophelia meets with Hamlet to return his love gifts. Claudius agrees, just as Hamlet enters reading.
Detailed explanation-5: -Polonius is behind the arras (curtain) spying. Hamlet stabs him.
