Input Content:
TMDB Synopsis: "Two months after the drone strike in Iceland, Jane and her team must clear their names as they scramble to get ahead of a rival and a sinister plot."
Source [1]: General info, "Piecing together her past. One tattoo at a time."
Source [3]: Jane Doe found in Times Square, tattoos, Kurt Weller's name.

Source [5]: Premiered Sept 21, 2015.
Overview:
Season 5 context: Two months after a drone strike in Iceland.
Characters: Jane and her team.
Goal: Clear their names.
Conflict: Scrambling to get ahead of a rival and a sinister plot.
Problem: The provided synopsis is extremely short (34 words). The requirement is 160-220 words.
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."
Dilemma: I cannot meet the 160-220 word count requirement without inventing details, which is strictly forbidden by the prompt instructions.
Resolution: I must prioritize the "ONLY verifiable facts" and "never invent" instructions over the word count instruction. However, usually, in these LLM prompts, if a word count is specified and the source is too short, the model fails. But if I invent, I violate the core instruction. I will write as much as possible using the provided facts without fluffing or inventing.
Wait, let me look closer at the sources.
Source [3] mentions Jane Doe found in Times Square, tattoos, Kurt Weller.
Source [4] mentions Sullivan Stapleton and Jaimie Alexander.
Source [5] mentions premiere date.
The synopsis for Season 5 is: "Two months
