Task: Write a grounded 280-380 word episode recap for Grey's Anatomy S7E5 (Almost Grown).
Constraints: Use ONLY verifiable facts from the provided SYNOPSIS and SOURCES. No invented titles, names, dates, etc. No markdown, no asterisks, no headings, no bullet points. Neutral, encyclopedic prose.

The synopsis for S7E5 is very brief: "As part of their training, Seattle Grace's residents are put in charge; the attending surgeons compete for a million-dollar grant."
The sources provide general series info: Creator (Shonda Rhimes), cast (Ellen Pompeo, Chandra Wilson, James Pickens Jr., Kevin McKidd), setting (Seattle Grace/Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital), and general premise.
Problem: The synopsis for this specific episode is extremely short. To reach the 280-380 word count without inventing facts, I must expand on the context provided by the sources regarding the series itself, while focusing the core of the recap on the episode's specific plot points.
Drafting Strategy:
1. Introduce the series and its premise using the sources.
2. Mention the setting (Seattle Grace/Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital).
3. Mention the creator and key cast members.
4. Transition to the specific episode (S7E5, "Almost Grown").
5. Detail the episode's plot: residents being put in charge as part of training and attending surgeons competing for a million-dollar grant.
