The middle column of the displayed long exact sequence is in even degrees; in other words, its entries appear on the E_1 page of the couple. Specifically, $E_1^{pq} = Ext^p(W,A_q/A_{q-1})$ can be found in degree $(2p,2q)$. The bottom element of the middle column is degree $(0,4)$, which is then $Ext^0(W,A_2/A_1)$. The top element of the middle column is $Ext^1(W,A_2/A_1)$.

i10 : prune Ext^0(W,A_2/A_1)
