When Hamlet speaks of his father's death, Ophelia corrects him by pointing out that he should remember the goodness of his father, King Hamlet, rather than expressing despair. She emphasizes that Hamlet's father was a noble man and that his death should be honored rather than dwelled upon in sorrow. This correction reflects Ophelia's loyalty to her father and her desire to remind Hamlet of the positive aspects of his father's legacy.

What part does Ophelia play in the plan of Polonius and the King What is her reaction to the way Hamlet speaks to her?

Ophelia is bait. She is to engage Hamlet in conversation while Polonius and the King are secretly listening in, hoping that he will reveal to her the reason for his strange behaviour. But Ophelia is not entirely on board with this plan, about which she was never consulted, and she tries to steer the conversation away from revealing details. Hamlet's explosion of anger when he realizes that the conversation is a set-up, and Ophelia is privy to it, convinces Ophelia that he really is crazy ("O what a noble mind is here o'erthrown.") while at the same time convincing Claudius that he is not ("what he spake, though it lacked form a little, was not like madness.").
