play opens with the dialogue of Horatio, Marcellus, Bernardo, and Francisco who are guards
King Hamlet is dead (referred to as the ghost)
Horatio doesn't believe the news at first
"Let us impart what we have seen to-night
Unto young Hamlet; for, upon my life,
This spirit, dumb to us, will speak to him.
Do you consent we shall acquaint him with it,
As needful in our loves, fitting our duty?" - The men plan on informing Prince Hamlet about his father's death
the scene ends with Marcellus saying that he knows "Where we shall find him most conveniently."
