Source-grounded

Episode recap

Task: Write a 280-380 word episode recap for Grey's Anatomy S21E7 (If You Leave).
Constraint 1: Use ONLY verifiable facts from the provided SYNOPSIS and SOURCES.
Constraint 2: No inventing/guessing titles, names, dates, etc.
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: "The doctors at Grey Sloan must put aside their emotions under intense circumstances. Levi asks James a shocking question that could impact their future."
SOURCES:
[1] Series title: Grey's Anatomy (2005). Setting: Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital.
[2] Cast/crew info (no specific episode details).
[3] Setting: Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital.
[4] Character: Meredith Grey (brilliant first-year surgical intern at Seattle Grace Hospital).
[5] Directors/Stars: Rob Corn, Debbie Allen, Ellen Pompeo, Justin Chambers, James Pickens Jr., Chandra Wilson.
Episode Title: If You Leave.
Episode Number: S21E7.
Setting: Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital.
Plot Point 1: Doctors at Grey Sloan must put aside their emotions under intense circumstances.
Plot Point 2: Levi asks James a shocking question that could impact their future.
The synopsis is extremely sparse. It only mentions two main things: doctors managing emotions under intense circumstances and Levi asking James a question.
The word count requirement is 280-380 words.
Problem: I cannot invent details to reach the word count. If I only use the provided facts, the text will be very short (approx. 40 words).
Constraint Check: "If the synopsis is sparse, stay concise rather than guessing."
Conflict: The user asks for 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: In professional archiving/fact-based writing, if the source material is insufficient to meet a length requirement without violating the "no invention" rule, the length requirement must yield to the "verifiable facts only" rule. However, I should try to provide as much context from the sources as possible to flesh it out, while strictly adhering to the "no invention" rule.
Context from sources: *Grey'
