Season overview
Role: Meticulous television and film archivist.
Task: Produce a JSON object for "Lilyhammer" Season 2.
Keys: overview (160-220 words), primer (array of exactly 4 concise bullet points).
Constraints: Use ONLY provided synopsis and sources. No invented facts. No markdown. No asterisks. No headings. No bullet points in the overview (plain text). Output valid JSON only.
Input:
Synopsis: "In Season 2, Frank juggles fatherhood to twins with his status as Norway's newest crime kingpin, which draws unwanted attention from British rivals."
Source [1]: Frank The Fixer Tagliano testified against his Mafia boss in New York and entered the Witness Protection Program.
Source [2]: Series is a crime comedy-drama starring Steven Van Zandt.
Source [5]: Mentions eight episodes (though this might refer to the series or a specific season, I must be careful).
Overview:
Subject: Frank "The Fixer" Tagliano.
Context: He testified against his Mafia boss in New York and entered the Witness Protection Program.
Season 2 plot: He is now Norway's newest crime kingpin. He is juggling fatherhood to twins alongside his criminal status. This new position as a crime kingpin draws unwanted attention from British rivals.
Word count check: I need to expand this to 160-220 words using only the provided info.
Wait, the provided info is very sparse.
Info available:
1. Frank The Fixer Tagliano testified against his Mafia boss in New York.
2. He entered the Witness Protection Program.
3. In Season 2, he is Norway's newest crime kingpin.
4. He is juggling fatherhood to twins.
5. His status draws unwanted attention from British rivals.
Problem: Expanding this to 160-220 words without inventing facts is extremely difficult. If I strictly follow "never invent or guess... if a detail is not in the provided material, you omit it", I cannot reach 160 words if the source material only provides about 40 words of plot.
Let's re-read: "Write original, neutral, encyclopedic prose...".
If I cannot reach the word count without inventing facts, I must prioritize the "ONLY verifiable facts" and "never invent" rules over the word count constraint, or try to use the available facts very descriptively. However, the prompt says "factual
