Episode recap

Task: Write a 280-380 word episode recap for Grey's Anatomy S20E9 ("I Carry Your Heart").
Constraint 1: Use ONLY verifiable facts from the provided SYNOPSIS and SOURCES.
Constraint 2: No invented titles, names, dates, counts, awards, ratings, box-office, or plot points.
Constraint 3: If a detail is not in the material, omit it.
Constraint 4: Write original, neutral, encyclopedic prose in plain text.
Constraint 5: No markdown, no asterisks, no headings, no bullet points.
Constraint 6: Word count target: 280-380 words.
Synopsis: Amelia comes to a realization. Teddy encourages Amelia and Meredith to speed up their Alzheimer's research over fear of Catherine finding out. Mika finds herself in the middle of Link and Jo. Lucas receives bad news.
Sources:
[1] General info: Follows personal/professional lives of doctors at Seattle's Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital.
[2] General info: Meredith Grey is a surgical intern at Seattle Grace Hospital (Note: This source describes the series start, but the episode is S20).
[3] General info: Series started in 2005.

The synopsis is extremely brief.
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 "guessing," which is strictly forbidden.
Constraint Check: "If the synopsis is sparse, stay concise rather than guessing." vs "Write a grounded 280-380 word episode recap".
Conflict Resolution: Usually, in these prompts, the word count is a target, but the "ONLY verifiable facts" and "If the synopsis is sparse, stay concise" instructions take precedence to avoid hallucination. However, if I write only ~50 words, I fail the word count instruction.
Wait: Let me look closer at the sources. There is almost nothing else.
Strategy: I will expand on the context provided by the sources (
