How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect

"Gaston's militant paranoia about Catholic threats in the earlier episode (warning Muss about plots) escalates into his even more intensified warnings to de Coligny in the next episode after the Admiral's shooting, where he directly accuses Catholic guards of being enemies."
