Episode recap

Task: Write a 280-380 word episode recap for NCIS S6E6 (Murder 2.0).
Constraints:
Use ONLY verifiable facts from the provided SYNOPSIS and SOURCES.
No invented titles, names, dates, counts, awards, ratings, etc.
No guessing or inventing plot points.
Original, neutral, encyclopedic prose.
Plain text only (no markdown, no asterisks, no headings, no bullet points).
Word count: 280-380 words.
Synopsis: Gibbs and his team are searching for a cyber serial killer who takes videos of his victims. The team quickly finds out that the videos of the dead victims are false.
Sources:
[1] NCIS (2003) is a Crime, Drama, and Action & Adventure series.
[3] Mark Harmon plays Leroy Jethro Gibbs.
[5] Sean Murray plays Timothy McGee. Michael Weatherly plays Tony DiNozzo/Anthony DiNozzo.
The synopsis is extremely brief: "Gibbs and his team are searching for a cyber serial killer who takes videos of his victims. The team quickly finds out that the videos of the dead victims are false."

Constraint Check: "If the synopsis is sparse, stay concise rather than guessing." AND "Write a grounded 280-380 word episode recap."
Conflict: I cannot write 280-380 words of verifiable facts if the only facts provided are two sentences of plot and a few names. If I expand to meet the word count, I will be "inventing or guessing" or "adding dialogue, scene order, character names or plot events not explicitly present," which is strictly forbidden.
Strategy: I must prioritize the instruction "You write ONLY verifiable facts that are explicitly supported by the provided SYNOPSIS and SOURCES" and "If a detail is not in the provided material, you omit it rather than guess."
If I follow the "only verifiable facts" rule, the output will be very short (around 40-50 words).
If I follow the "280-380 word" rule, I will violate the "only verifiable facts" rule.
In professional prompt engineering and instruction following for "meticulous archivists," the "ONLY verifiable facts" and "Never invent" instructions are the primary constraints. The word count is a
