B) Hamlet's and Laertes's accusations

Explanation:

Hamlet rants out at his mother when she asks him to stop going against the King (Claudius). In reply, he asks her that why had she betrayed his father and married his father's brother. Gertrude pleads Hamlet to stop speaking such things as she gets shattered on listening to the truth. She very well knows that Claudius has killed the King and had taken his place.
