Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"In Episode 5, Gregory quotes Norris's advice about jousting: 'you can't do it if you're not afraid.' In Episode 6, Norris shows exactly this kind of courage — he walks out on Anne without bowing, defying the Queen despite the danger. Norris's own philosophy is enacted: he faces the Queen's wrath because he understands that fear is part of honor."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This creates a tragic heroic arc for Norris: the man who understood fear as a component of courage in the tiltyard applies that wisdom to a far more dangerous arena — the Queen's chambers. His defiance is both noble and suicidal, a direct enactment of his own jousting philosophy.
