By sheer luck and nosiness. The nosiness comes in because he decides to have a look at Rosencrantz and Guildenstern's sealed orders, and finds that they are instructions to the English to execute him. Fortunately he has the equipment and skill to forge a new set of orders in which Rosencrantz and Guildenstern go to the chop in his place. He is also extremely lucky in that pirates attack and he ends up on the pirate ship, and the pirates agree to return him to Denmark.

What is used by the king to pawn Hamlet's plan?
Please rephrase this question. As it stands it sounds like Claudius took a cab downtown to Ernie's Pawnshop to get a loan on a map owned by Hamlet. What other kind of plan did Hamlet have? Hamlet is famous for not making plans, of not thinking out any practical scheme to accomplish his revenge.

What does Claudius do that makes Hamlet hesitate in killing him?
Claudius did not choose to punish Hamlet for his crimes for two reasons. One he loved Gertrude, Hamlets mother too much and two, the people loved Hamlet and Claudius feared punishing him would cause a revolt.
How did Ophelia betray Hamlet's trust?
In what they call the Nunnery Scene, in Hamlet Act 3 Scene 1, Hamlet gets angry at Ophelia. The scene is very complicated and it is difficult to find a consistent explanation of the lines. In one theory, Hamlet becomes mad at Ophelia because he thinks she's become Claudius's courtesan. The situation is that Hamlet knows he was summoned there by Claudius. Claudius, himself, tells us that he summoned Hamlet. Hamlet finds Ophelia there, and then she returns the gifts he gave her, so Hamlet thinks Ophelia is returning his gifts because Claudius told her to. That's how it looks to him. Hamlet thinks he was summoned there by Claudius so Ophelia could return his gifts. Thus, Hamlet suspects that Ophelia must have gone over to Claudius. Hamlet thinks the same kind of thing has happened again that he's already seen, that being, first his mother went to Claudius and married him, then Hamlet's old friends R & G went to Claudius and started working for him, so now Hamlet thinks it's happened with Ophelia, too, when she returns his gifts, after Claudius summoned him there. And why would a lecherous old king be interested in a pretty young girl? Hamlet draws the obvious conclusion. He's gotten the tragically wrong idea that Ophelia is a prostitute. Here is another possible interpretation of what is going on. Hamlet expects Claudius to be behind the curtains and knows he is there watching this. He bumps into Ophelia. There is a lot he'd like to say to Ophelia, but he has to be careful because he is being overheard. She is going to return love-tokens to him (she is in fact doing this because her father told her to do it) His first thought is to deny it; he doesn't want Claudius to know about Ophelia and him. Then he thinks she is behaving oddly "Are you honest?" and she gets worried. Is he on to her? Hamlet then tries to tell her to get out of his life because he is too dangerous, and retire to a convent. "Why would thou be a breeder of sinners?" Then something happens, and he asks the question, "Where is your father?" Her answer gives away the fact that she knows that Polonius is behind the arras--she knew it all the time. Here he was trying to be nice to her, and she was selling him out. He is furious and instead of telling her to get to a "nunnery" that is a convent he tells her to get to the "nunnery" that is a brothel, because she had sold herself out like a prostitute. Ophelia certainly is Claudius's and Polonius's tool. She has engaged Hamlet in conversation knowing that the purpose of the thing is to trap him in front of the hidden witnesses. She has sold out to Claudius just like Rosencrantz and Guildenstern and Gertrude have. But she has done so because she is very weak, dependent and somewhat dimwitted, and she is trying to be a dutiful daughter and obey her father, without reflecting on what this might mean for Hamlet, or that it implies choosing sides in some court intrigue. When she finds that out, it will drive her mad. Hamlet is wrong about Ophelia, but he doesn't know that. She hasn't really gone over to Claudius. However, Hamlet's mistaken idea makes him very angry.

What scheme does claudius and polonius have while Hamlet is visiting his mother in her quarters?
It's mostly Polonius's scheme, not Claudius's. Polonius is a spymaster and his answer to everything is to spy on the person. He proposes that by spying on Hamlet's supposedly private conversation with his mother, Polonius may learn something relating to Hamlet's madness. It's an Elizabethan wiretap. Polonius suggests the scheme in 3,1 as follows: My lord, do as you please, But if you hold it fit, after the play, Let his queen mother all alone entreat him To show his grief. Let her be round with him, And I'll be placed, so please you, in the ear Of all their confidence. Claudius agrees because "madness in great ones should not unwatched go." In 3,3 Polonius tells Claudius "he's going to his mother's closet. Behind the arras I'll convey myself to hear the process." he then says And, as you said, and wisely was it said, 'Tis meet that some more audience than a mother, Since nature makes them partial, should o'erhear The speech of vantage. Claudius said no such thing. Polonius is putting his own words in Claudius's mouth and then congratulating the king on how clever he is for saying them. Polonius knows how to be a courtier.
