Hamlet compares himself to a pipe, saying his "friends" believe he is easier to play upon than a pipe. Polonius is to the point where he is simply trying to do anything he can to get Hamlet to go to his mother.
Claudius admits to the audience that he murdered his brother and feels guilty for it, but he values his prizes too much to atone for what he did.
Hamlet sees his uncle praying, and is ready to kill him, but doesn't because he is worried that Claudius will go to heaven if he dies while repenting. Unfortunately, Claudius is unable to repent, but Hamlet does not know this. Hamlet is cruelly logical as he decides on a course of action to ensure that Claudius goes to Hell.
