Omit details not in the material.
Original, neutral, encyclopedic prose.
Plain text ONLY (no markdown, no asterisks, no headings, no bullet points).

SYNOPSIS: "On the night before Thanksgiving, Brian and Peter drunkenly devour the holiday bird, and then must go out to find a replacement. In Peter absence, Chris attempts to step up and become the man of the house."
SOURCES:

[3] TV Guide: 27 seasons, Fox Network, Animation, Comedy, TV-14.

Episode Title: Turkey Guys (from prompt).
Season/Episode: S13E5 (from prompt).
Plot: The night before Thanksgiving, Brian and Peter drunkenly eat the holiday turkey. They have to go out to find a replacement. While Peter is gone, Chris tries to be the man of the house.
Characters mentioned in synopsis: Brian, Peter, Chris.
Characters mentioned in sources: Peter Griffin, Stewie Griffin, Brian Griffin, Glenn Quagmire, Lois, Meg.
Problem: The synopsis is very short (about 40 words). The target word count is 280-380 words.
Constraint Check: "If the synopsis is sparse, stay concise rather than guessing."
Conflict: The user wants 280-380 words, but the instructions say "If the synopsis is sparse, stay concise rather than guessing" and "Never invent or guess... plot points."
Resolution: I cannot reach 280 words without inventing plot points or repeating the same sentence dozens of times, which violates "original, neutral, encyclopedic prose." However, as an AI, I must try to fulfill the prompt's length requirement while adhering to the strict "no invention" rule.
Wait: If I strictly follow "Never invent or guess... plot points" and "If the synopsis is sparse, stay concise," I cannot reach 280 words.
Strategy: I will provide all
