Making Managed Object Context available to array controller in Storyboard scene

I have a core data, document based, storyboard OS X application.

There is a test project here:

https://github.com/ericgorr/sb_ac_doc

which is just the default project Xcode creates with a few modifications.

I have a single view controller and the view contains a table view which will eventually display the data in the Core Data document. I will also using an array controller to manage the rows for the table view.

The three scenes are:

 - Application Scene
 - Window Controller Scene
 - Main View Controller Scene

The *Main View Controller Scene* contains the *TestItem Array Controller*.

The *TestItem View Controller* contains the code:

    class ViewController: NSViewController
    {
        var context: NSManagedObjectContext?

        //
        // ...
        //
    }

The *TestItem Array Controller* contains the Parameters Binding:

    Managed Object Context
        Bind to: Main View Controller
        Model Key Path: context

In Document.swift:

    override func makeWindowControllers()
    {
        let moc = self.managedObjectContext!

        // Returns the Storyboard that contains your Document window.
        let storyboard          = NSStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
        let windowController    = storyboard.instantiateControllerWithIdentifier( "Document Window Controller" ) as! NSWindowController
        let contentController   = windowController.contentViewController as! ViewController

        NSLog( "%@", self.managedObjectContext! )

        contentController.context = self.managedObjectContext!

        NSLog( "%@", contentController.context! )

        self.addWindowController( windowController )
    }

This is my attempt to pass the MOC to the view controller before the array controller attempts to access it.

The NSLog's both print out valid values.

However, I am getting the following crash:

What is the correct pattern I should use so the array controller can access the MOC of the document?
