Final answer:

Hamlet's plan at the end of the soliloquy is to pretend to be mad to unmask Claudius's guilt.

Step-by-step explanation:

At the end of the Soliloquy, Hamlet has concocted a plan (b) to feign madness and gather information. Throughout the play, Hamlet devises this strategy to create an aura of confusion around his behavior, which he believes will provide him with the cover to observe Claudius's actions and ascertain his guilt. This state of pretense also serves as a protective barrier while Hamlet plans his next moves in his quest for revenge against his uncle for the murder of his father.
