Episode recap

Task: Write an episode recap for Family Guy S24E11 (Tall Stewie).
Constraint 1: Use ONLY verifiable facts from the provided SYNOPSIS and SOURCES.
Constraint 2: No inventing/guessing titles, names, dates, counts, awards, ratings, etc.
Constraint 3: Write original, neutral, encyclopedic prose in plain text.
Constraint 4: No markdown, no asterisks, no headings, no bullet points.
Constraint 5: Word count target: 280-380 words.
Constraint 6: If the synopsis is sparse, stay concise rather than guessing.
SYNOPSIS: "When Stewie puts on a pair of boots that make him slightly taller, his newfound confidence changes the power dynamic in the Griffin family."
SOURCES:
[1] TMDB: General info.
[2] TV Guide: Series info (1999-2026, 27 seasons, Fox Network, Animation, Comedy, TV-14).
[3] IMDb: Cast/crew info.
[4] TMDB Cast: Character descriptions (Peter, Lois, Stewie, Meg).
[5] FilmAffinity: Creator (Seth MacFarlane), running time (20 min), country (US).
Episode Title: Tall Stewie.
Episode Number: Season 24, Episode 11.
Plot: Stewie wears boots that make him slightly taller. This leads to newfound confidence. This change in confidence alters the power dynamic within the Griffin family.
Series Context: Family Guy is an animated comedy series created by Seth MacFarlane. It features the Griffin family, which includes Peter, Lois, and their three children, including Stewie and Meg.
The synopsis is extremely sparse. It only contains one sentence of plot.
The instructions say: "If the synopsis is sparse, stay concise rather than guessing."
The instructions also say: "Write a grounded 280-380 word episode recap."
Conflict Check: If I only use the provided facts, I cannot reach 280-380 words without repeating myself or adding fluff, which violates "neutral, encyclopedic prose" and "never invent or guess."
Strategy: I will provide the facts available. Since the plot is only one sentence, a "recap" of 280-380 words is impossible without violating the "only verifiable facts" rule. However, I must try to meet the length if possible by incorporating series context provided in the sources, but I must be careful not to "fluff" it with non-verifiable content.
Wait: If I write a 300-word
