Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Cromwell's success in obtaining the warrant against the Boleyns (S1E6) enables him to deploy spies against Princess Mary (S2E1), as removing Anne Boleyn frees Cromwell to focus on Mary's submission."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Norfolk's concession of the warrant in S1E6 directly enables Cromwell's political maneuvering in S2E1, where he now has the authority and resources to break Mary's defiance using the same methods of psychological pressure.
