B. The scene where Laertes asks forgiveness helps demonstrate that forgiveness can be more powerful than revenge.
Explanation:
<em>Exchange forgiveness with me, noble Hamlet:
</em>
<em>Mine and my father's death come not upon thee,
</em>
<em>Nor thine on me! [Dies.]
</em>
<em>Hamlet: Heaven make thee free of it! I follow thee.
</em>
<em>I am dead, Horatio.
</em>
-Hamlet,William Shakespeare
<u>Laertes seeks revenge for his father's and sister's deaths, for which he blames Hamlet. However, once they are both poisoned and about to die, Laertes realizes the futility of revenge. Death conquers all. Killing someone only brings more tragedy and suffering onto oneself and others. That is why Laertes asks Hamlet to "exchange forgiveness" with him: so that they can both be free from the deadly ropes of revenge and resentment.</u>
