Season overview
Role: Meticulous television and film archivist.
Task: Produce a JSON object for "Below Deck Mediterranean" Season 7.
Keys required: overview (160-220 words), primer (array of exactly 4 concise bullet points).
Constraints: Use ONLY provided synopsis and sources. No invented facts. No markdown. No asterisks. No headings. No bullet points (in the prose, though the primer is an array). Output valid JSON only.

TMDB Synopsis: Captain Sandy brings 163-foot motor yacht “Home” to the pristine waters of Malta.
Source [1]: Series overview: Crew members living/working aboard a 150' mega-yacht in the Mediterranean.
Source [3]: Premiered on Bravo on May 3, 2016. First spin-off of Below Deck. Has aired ten seasons.
Source [4]/[5]: Crew provides service to wealthy/uncompromising guests. Challenges include love triangles and crew members crossing the line.
Season 7 Details: The only specific info for Season 7 is the TMDB synopsis: Captain Sandy brings the 163-foot motor yacht "Home" to the waters of Malta.
Word Count Check: I need 160-220 words for the overview.
Problem: The provided text for Season 7 is extremely sparse. It only says: "Captain Sandy brings 163-foot motor yacht “Home” to the pristine waters of Malta, one of the smallest and most historic archipelagos in the world."
Constraint Check: "You write ONLY verifiable facts that are explicitly supported by the provided SYNOPSIS and SOURCES. You never invent or guess... If a detail is not in the provided material, you omit it rather than guess."
Conflict: To reach 160-220 words, I would have to repeat the same sentence or include information not in the text. However, the instructions say "Write original, neutral, encyclopedic prose". If I only have one sentence of info for the season, I cannot reach 160 words without violating the "never invent or guess" and "only verifiable facts" rules.
Wait: Let me re-read the sources.
