Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The ritual transformation of Jane Seymour during Anne's trial—where Margery cuts the strings of Jane's cap and blood runs down Jane's face—directly precedes Jane's coronation; the blood offering is a sacrificial prelude to her queenship."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The symbolic violence of Jane's transformation at the trial (blood on her face as a 'first offering') is causally linked to her later assumption of the crown: she has passed through a sacrificial rite that made her eligible to replace Anne, and the later scene shows the result of that ordeal.
About Causal Connections
A directly causes B. The first event sets forces in motion that produce the second. These are the load-bearing connections of plot--remove one and the story structure collapses.
