Series Context: NCIS follows a Major Case Response Team investigating criminal cases connected to the US Navy and Marine Corps personnel and their families. The series was created by Donald P. Bellisario and Don McGill.
The synopsis is extremely brief: "NCIS searches for new leads after an undercover operation to apprehend a businessman who uses acts of terror to manipulate the stock market is compromised."
The sources provide series-level info but no specific character names or plot details for this specific episode other than what is in the synopsis.
Problem: The word count requirement is 280-380 words. The available facts for the episode itself are only about 30 words.
Constraint Check: "If the synopsis is sparse, stay concise rather than guessing." vs "Write a grounded 280-380 word episode recap".
