The synopsis is very short.
The word count requirement is 280-380 words.
Problem: The provided synopsis only contains about 60-70 words of actual plot information for this specific episode.
Constraint Check: "If the synopsis is sparse, stay concise rather than guessing." AND "Write a grounded 280-380 word episode recap."
Conflict: I cannot meet the 280-380 word count without inventing details, which is strictly forbidden by the "ONLY verifiable facts" and "never invent or guess" instructions.
Strategy: I must prioritize the "ONLY verifiable facts" and "never invent or guess" instructions over the word count instruction if the source material is insufficient. However, I can expand on the context provided by the sources (the series premise and cast) to add substance, though the prompt asks for an episode recap.
Refined Strategy: I will write everything I can from the synopsis and the general series context provided in the sources. If I cannot reach 280 words without violating the "no guessing" rule, I must remain concise as per the instruction "If the synopsis is sparse, stay concise rather than guessing."
