Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Rafe's loyalty to Cromwell, demonstrated when he defends Cromwell's attachment to Wolsey ('Perhaps something is to be got by sticking fast'), is echoed when Rafe warns Cromwell against tying their fortunes too tightly to Anne Boleyn, showing his continued role as a cautious advisor."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
In Episode 2, Rafe shows his strategic thinking by suggesting that loyalty to Wolsey might still yield profit. In Episode 3, Rafe applies the same cautious calculus to the Boleyn situation, warning Cromwell: 'All our fortunes depend on that lady now... Do you really want to tie us even more tightly to her?' This shows Rafe's consistent role as the voice of strategic caution, and his character continuity as someone who thinks several moves ahead about the risks of political alliances.
