Episode recap

Role: Meticulous television and film archivist.
Task: Write a 280-380 word episode recap for Grey's Anatomy S22E12 (Get Lucky).
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 target: 280-380 words.
Synopsis: "Tensions rise as Teddy and Winston take on a complex procedure, while Kavita and Ben try and impress the new plastics attending. Jo and Link leave the babies with a nanny for the first time."
Sources:
[1] General info: Grey's Anatomy (2005), TV-14, Drama, follows doctors at Seattle's Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital.
[2] Cast/Crew info: Follows doctors at Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital.
[3] Prime Video: Meredith Grey is a brilliant first-year surgical intern at Seattle Grace Hospital.
[4] FilmAffinity: Creator Shonda Rhimes, Running time 45 min, Country US.
[5] Simkl: Drama, Romance, Soap.
Episode: S22E12 "Get Lucky".
Plot Point 1: Teddy and Winston perform a complex procedure, which causes tensions to rise.
Plot Point 2: Kavita and Ben attempt to impress the new plastics attending.
Plot Point 3: Jo and Link leave their babies with a nanny for the first time.
The synopsis is extremely brief (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" that violates the "no inventing" and "no guessing" rules.
Constraint Check: "If the synopsis is sparse, stay concise rather than guessing." vs "Write a grounded 280-380 word episode recap".
Conflict: The prompt asks for a specific word count (280-380) but also forbids adding any information not in the text. The text provided is only about 40 words long.
Archivist Strategy: I must expand on the context provided by the sources (the series itself) to reach the word count, but I cannot invent plot details for the specific episode. I can describe the setting (Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital) and the nature of the series (drama following
