Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Gardiner's character remains consistently adversarial: from the moment he returns to court, he targets Cromwell. The confrontation in the Great Hall establishes his enmity, which directly carries over to the arrest scene where he is the primary antagonist.
