Week 9: Arrange Your Face (Part 2)
Wyatt visits Cromwell at Austin Friars, where he recommends Cromwell ask for his old job as Master of the Jewels. “From that post, when I had it, I found I had an overview of the revenue.”
Wyatt tells the household his old stories. About being locked in the Tower by King Richard and the cat that brought him a pigeon.
