This scene is rather awkward. Hamlet's sexual suggestions about his mother are troublesome to say the least. Still, Hamlet wants to save his mother from her incestuous falling off with everything that is right and holy. Hamlet also illustrates just how nasty, manipulative, and treacherous Claudius is. Gertrude truly knew nothing about the murder of her husband at the hands of Claudius.
