Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"In Episode 1, Cromwell dismisses Richard and Rafe, telling them to go home while he walks alone. In Episode 2, Richard is shown in the courtyard with Gregory and Rafe, in relaxed domestic banter, indicating the household has settled into its new normal after Wolsey's fall."
