Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Cromwell's manipulation of Henry's ghost vision establishes his power over the king, which he then carries into his confident, domineering interaction with Cranmer."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Cromwell's ability to reshape Henry's guilt into divine mandate in Ep 2 directly fuels his arrogance and sense of control when he visits Cranmer in Ep 3. The same psychological mastery over the king underpins his presumption to dictate even Cranmer's meals.
