Source-grounded

Episode recap

Task: Write a 280-380 word episode recap for Grey's Anatomy S19E17 ("Come Fly with Me").
Constraints:
Use ONLY verifiable facts from the provided SYNOPSIS and SOURCES.
No invented titles, names, dates, counts, awards, ratings, etc.
No guessing or inventing plot points.
Original, neutral, encyclopedic prose.
Plain text only (no markdown, no asterisks, no headings, no bullet points).
Word count: 280-380 words.
Synopsis: Teddy calls an emergency meeting to discuss the intern program. Link wrestles with his own self-doubt as he preps for a massive surgery. Nick shares some much-needed guidance with a struggling Lucas.
Sources:
[1, 3, 5] Series follows personal/professional lives of doctors at Seattle's Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital.
[4] Mentions Meredith Grey as a first-year surgical intern at Seattle Grace Hospital (Note: The synopsis is for S19, so the "first-year intern" part from source [4] is historical context, but the current setting is Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital).
Teddy calls an emergency meeting regarding the intern program.
Link experiences self-doubt while preparing for a massive surgery.
Nick provides guidance to Lucas, who is struggling.
The synopsis is extremely brief (only three sentences).
The word count requirement is 280-380 words.
Problem: If I only use the provided facts, I cannot reach 280 words without repeating myself or adding "fluff" which violates the "neutral, encyclopedic prose" and "never invent or guess" rules.
Constraint Check: "If the synopsis is sparse, stay concise rather than guessing."
Conflict: The user asks for 280-380 words, but the provided material only contains enough information for about 40-50 words.
Decision: As a "meticulous television and film archivist," I must prioritize accuracy and the instruction "If a detail is not in the provided material, you omit it rather than guess." I cannot fulfill the 280-380 word count without violating the core instruction of only using provided facts. However, I will attempt to expand on the context provided in the sources (the setting of Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital) to see if I can add any substance, but even then, it will be very short.

Wait, looking at the prompt again: "Write a grounded 280-380 word episode recap... Use only supplied facts. Never add dialogue, scene order, character names or plot events not explicitly present. If the synopsis is sparse, stay concise rather than guessing."
