The sources provide general series info but very little specific episode detail.
The word count requirement is 280-380 words.
Problem: The provided synopsis is only about 25 words. The sources provide general series information. To reach 280-380 words without inventing facts or guessing plot points is impossible if I strictly follow "If a detail is not in the provided material, you omit it rather than guess."
Strategy: I must expand on the series context provided in the sources (creator, cast, setting, genre, production) to provide a comprehensive entry for the episode within the context of the series, while focusing the core of the text on the episode's specific premise.
