Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Jane Rochford's damning testimony of incest between George and Anne provides the central evidence used to convict and execute George. Wolsey's ghost in the later episode includes George in his litany of Cromwell's victims, directly tied to this accusation."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The incest accusation is the key that unlocks George's conviction. Without Jane's betrayal, the case against him would be weaker. The later episode's reference to George as a victim is a direct outcome of this causal event.
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.
