Narrative Connection

How these two moments in the story relate


Why These Connect

The narrative assertion

"Norfolk allows himself to be manipulated by Cromwell to plead for More's life against Anne's wishes in Episode 4; in Episode 5, during the false death crisis, he naturally aligns with Cromwell, responding to his command about the queen's location and asserting his own regency claim."
