Why This Matters Across Episodes

The longer arc this connection carries

Bonvisi's advice in Episode 101 ('Leave him now. You will be without a master') is the catalyst for Cromwell's strategic shift. In Episode 102, Cromwell acts on that advice by investigating how Anne Boleyn's rise could create a new master—and Bonvisi is now complicit in that exploration, showing his transition from protective mentor to political co-conspirator.
