They were summoned by Claudius to do the spying. They weren't just hanging around the castle.
: "Vladamir and Estragon are the main characters in Samuel Beckett’s play Waiting for Godot. These two stand around with no agenda, much like our beloved Bluntman and Chronic. Rosencrantz and Guildenstern originally appeared in Shakespears "Hamlet." More recently, Tom Stoppard wrote a play with them as the protagonists called "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead." These two characters are buffoonish and again, *SEEM* to have *NO REAL AGENDA*."
: Claudius indeed had them spy. But what were they doing up until then?They're a couple of dumb college students enjoying a good mope. Remember too, it's not their agenda, it's Claudius' agenda.
