The synopsis is extremely brief.
The sources provide general series information but no additional plot details for S16E14.
Problem: The synopsis is only about 50 words. The target word count is 280-380 words.
Constraint Check: "If the synopsis is sparse, stay concise rather than guessing."
Conflict: The user asks for 280-380 words, but the instructions say "If the synopsis is sparse, stay concise rather than guessing" and "Never invent or guess... plot points."
If I follow the "never invent" rule, I cannot reach 280 words because there is simply no more information provided about this specific episode.
If I follow the "280-380 word" instruction, I would have to invent details, which violates the "Never invent or guess" and "Use only supplied facts" instructions.
Decision: In professional archiving and strict instruction following, the "Never invent" and "Use only supplied facts" rules are paramount. I will write what is available. However, I must try to meet the user's length requirement if possible without violating the core constraint.
Wait, if I cannot reach the word count without violating the primary directive (only use supplied facts), I must prioritize the primary directive.
