1. He is all in black. He is still mourning the loss of his father, yet shows up at his mother's wedding (which he does not approve of).
2. One reason is that it was considered incest for him to marry his brother's wife. Another is that his brother has barely been dead for a month when they get married.
3. He asks to go back to France.
4. He is insulting Claudius for marrying Gertrude. He's saying that Claudius is his relative twice because he's his uncle and his step-father, but 'less than kind' means that he doesn't exactly treat him like they're that close.
5. He is in the spotlight of Denmark because he's the prince. He's also the 'son' because of Claudius's marriage to Gertrude.
6. His mom got married only about a month after his father's death, and to his uncle no less.
7. He's upset. He's saying that everything isn't quite what it seems. He's saying that he's dressed like he's mourning and to everyone else it looks like he's upset about his father's funeral, but he's really mourning his mother's marriage. He's also saying that his outward appearance matches his feelings.
8. You could keep the food from the funeral cold long enough to serve it at the wedding because they are so close together.
9. That there is the ghost of his dead father roaming around in armor.
