Episode recap

Task: Write a 280-380 word episode recap for NCIS S7E10 (Faith).
Constraints:
Use ONLY verifiable facts from the provided SYNOPSIS and SOURCES.
No invented titles, names, dates, episode counts, awards, ratings, box-office, viewership, or plot points.
If a detail is not in the material, omit it.
Write original, neutral, encyclopedic prose in plain text.
No markdown, no asterisks, no headings, no bullet points.
Word count target: 280-380 words.
SYNOPSIS: "The body of the son of a retired Colonel-turned-preacher is found and the team have their suspicions that he may be the victim of a hate crime."
SOURCES:
[1] NCIS (2003) is a TV-14 Crime, Drama, and Action & Adventure series.
[2] IMDb info (mostly irrelevant to this specific episode).
[3] TMDB info (NCIS investigates crimes linked to Navy and Marine Corps personnel).
[4] Deadline article (mentions origin as JAG back-door pilots, Pauley Perrette's audition for Abby).
[5] Variety article (mentions Sean Murray, Brian Dietzen, Rocky Carroll).
Episode: NCIS Season 7, Episode 10, titled "Faith".
Plot: The body of the son of a retired Colonel-turned-preacher is found. The team suspects the victim may be the victim of a hate crime.
Series context: NCIS is a crime, drama, and action and adventure series that investigates crimes linked to Navy and Marine Corps personnel.
The synopsis is extremely brief: "The body of the son of a retired Colonel-turned-preacher is found and the team have their suspicions that he may be the victim of a hate crime."
The sources provide context about the show (investigates Navy/Marine Corps crimes, genre, etc.) but nothing else about this specific episode.
Problem: The user wants a 280-380 word recap. The provided information is only one sentence long.
Constraint Check: "If the synopsis is sparse, stay concise rather than guessing." "Never invent or guess... plot points." "If a detail is not in the provided material, you omit it rather than guess."
If I follow the instructions strictly, I cannot reach 280 words because there is no information to reach that length without inventing details.
The instructions say: "If the synopsis is sparse, stay concise rather than guessing." This contradicts the "280-380 word" requirement if the content is insufficient.
