Synopsis: "A powerful sleeping aid medication gives Joe the ability to walk while he is asleep, but Joe grows concerned when it becomes clear that the guys prefer his sleepwalking self."
Sources:

Episode Title: Let the Goodtimes Walk.
Episode Number: Season 24, Episode 14.
Plot: Joe takes a powerful sleeping aid medication. This medication allows him to walk while he is asleep. Joe becomes concerned because it becomes clear that the guys prefer his sleepwalking self.
The synopsis is extremely short (one sentence).
The word count requirement is 280-380 words.
Problem: I cannot invent details. If I only use the provided facts, I will only have about 40 words.
Constraint Check: "If the synopsis is sparse, stay concise rather than guessing." vs "Write a grounded 280-380 word episode recap".
Conflict Resolution: As an archivist, I must follow the instruction "You write ONLY verifiable facts that are explicitly supported by the provided SYNOPSIS and SOURCES." and "If a detail is not in the provided material, you omit it rather than guess."
If I follow the "ONLY verifiable facts" rule, I cannot reach 280 words without violating the "never invent or guess" rule.
However, the prompt demands 280-380 words.
Let's look at the sources again.
