Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"In E106, Cromwell orchestrates the downfall of Anne Boleyn and receives Henry's trust, including the token from Katherine. In E201, Cromwell uses his political acumen to threaten Mary through Chapuys, demonstrating his continued role as the king's enforcer and the steady erosion of Katherine's legacy."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Cromwell's character arc—from mastermind of Anne's execution to principal advisor managing the succession—directly connects the two episodes. His actions in both episodes are motivated by the same need to secure Henry's will, and Katherine's memory is a lever he uses and ultimately destroys.
