The line that helps to establish that something unnatural and wrong has happened is A: "Something is rotten in the state of Denmark". It is mentioned by one of the characters when the ghost appears, and it is also commonly used to indicate that something suspicious is happening. The word <em>rotten</em> describes something spoiled that usually smells bad. In this case, the situation does not "smell good".
