Overview (Goal: 160-220 words):
The provided synopsis for Season 4 is very short: "With all the Brassic gang back in Hawley, things don’t get any easier. From discovering severed body parts to training racing dogs, then finding unexpected guests and causing mayhem at a murder mystery night, trouble is never far away when Brassic comes to town."
The total word count of the synopsis is about 45 words.
The prompt requires 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."
Conflict: I cannot reach 160-220 words without inventing details or repeating the same sentence multiple times, which violates the "original, neutral, encyclopedic prose" and "never invent" rules.
Resolution: I must attempt to expand using the available information (the setting, the characters' general nature, the creators, etc.) without inventing new plot points. However, the synopsis for Season 4 specifically is extremely thin.
Let's see what else I have:
Setting: Hawley, suburban northern England.
Characters: Vinnie and Dylan (inseparable), a group of working-class friends.
