SYNOPSIS: "The NCIS team tirelessly search for Gibbs and McGee two months after they were last seen fighting an elusive group of rebels in a Paraguay jungle."
SOURCES:
[1] TMDB: Shows NCIS (2003) is TV-14, Crime, Drama, Action & Adventure.
[2] IMDb: Cast and crew credits.
[3] Deadline: Mentions NCIS originated as two back-door pilot episodes of JAG in April 2003. Mentions Pauley Perrette (Abby).

The synopsis for S15E1 is extremely brief: "The NCIS team tirelessly search for Gibbs and McGee two months after they were last seen fighting an elusive group of rebels in a Paraguay jungle."
The sources provide general series information (start date, genre, some cast names) but very little specific to Season 15, Episode 1.
The prompt requires a 280-380 word recap.
Problem: The provided synopsis is only 31 words. If I strictly follow "Use only supplied facts" and "If the synopsis is sparse, stay concise rather than guessing," I cannot reach 280 words without inventing information.
Constraint Conflict: The user asks for 280-380 words, but the provided data is insufficient to reach that length without violating the "never invent or guess" rule.
Strategy: I must prioritize the "Use only supplied facts" and "Never invent or guess" instructions over the word count instruction, as the word count is impossible to meet using only the provided facts. However, I can expand on the series context provided in the sources to add length, provided it is factual.
