Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"In Episode 2, Cromwell learns that More was the first to sign all forty-four charges against Wolsey, even adding an absurd accusation. This betrayal deepens Cromwell’s bitterness, which in Episode 3 fuels his reaction to the letter revealing More’s opposition to the divorce and his enmity toward Cromwell."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
More’s role in Wolsey’s destruction is a personal grievance for Cromwell that persists across episodes. This continuity explains why Cromwell’s response to More’s defiance in Episode 3 is so visceral (threatening to beat him) – it builds on established resentment.
