Keep main arc plot in mind. Is this episode a side plot? If it's main then give weight to what is happening like battle or protagonist's choice. What two factions are there and their goals? Who is the hero and the Other involved here?
How rested and centered is the individual? Can they use their heroic str or magic, or rely on the encouragement of others? What mood are they in? Patient or short fused? --> Next tables determine the social encounter's particulars.
Opponent is really on their game and either fully leaning into the hero's progress or really proving to be a dominating force, either not easily persuaded or very intimidating.
