Episode Title: Slow Night, So Long (S7E9).
Plot: Residents are on night shifts alone. Attendings are celebrating Derek's grant for his clinical trial.
The provided synopsis is extremely brief: "The residents are on their own with the dreaded night shifts while the attendings go out to play to celebrate Derek's grant for his clinical trial."
The sources provide general series information (creator, cast, premise) but do not provide more plot details for this specific episode.
Constraint Check: "If the synopsis is sparse, stay concise rather than guessing."
Constraint Check: "Write a grounded 280-380 word episode recap."

Wait a minute. The synopsis is only one sentence long. If I strictly follow "Use only supplied facts" and "If the synopsis is sparse, stay concise rather than guessing," I cannot reach 280-380 words without inventing facts.
