Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The oath-taking ceremony makes Cromwell a councillor, giving him the institutional standing to treat an Archbishop as a subordinate. His disdain for Cranmer's 'poor dinner' and offer to 'send someone over' is the behavior of a man who now outranks the Church's hierarchy.
