Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Wolsey's ghost warns Cromwell to 'fix the king a new wife' or die. In Episode 6, Cromwell actively orchestrates Anne Boleyn's downfall to clear the way for a new queen, directly acting on the ghost's ultimatum."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The ghost's advice is the explicit catalyst for Cromwell's ruthless campaign against Anne Boleyn. The warning—'I didn't. And I'm dead.'—hangs over every decision Cromwell makes in Episode 6, transforming Wolsey's posthumous instruction into the engine of the plot.
