The narrative assertion
"Cromwell's exposure to More's unyielding moral defiance in Ep4 hardens his pragmatic cynicism in Ep5, where he doubts Cranmer's naive belief in Henry's love for Anne."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Cromwell's experience with More—where conscience trumped politics—shapes his response to Cranmer's faith in Henry's devotion; he now sees the king's emotions as tools to be managed, not trusted.
