Season overview

Role: Meticulous television and film archivist.
Task: Produce a JSON object for "South Park" Season 9.
Keys: overview (160-220 words), primer (array of exactly 4 concise bullet points).
Constraints: Use ONLY provided synopsis and sources. No invented facts. No markdown. No asterisks. No headings. No bullet points (in the overview, but the primer is an array of strings). Output valid JSON only.
Input: TMDB Season Synopsis and several sources.
Synopsis: "Join Stan, Kyle, Cartman and Kenny as they deal with the perceived dangers of global warming, a certain actor's sexuality is questioned, and the Pope arrives to witness a religious miracle. For them, it’s all part of growing up in South Park!"
Source [1]: General overview: "Four boys. One f**ked-up town." "Follow the misadventures of four irreverent grade-schoolers in the quiet, dysfunctiona"
Source [2]: "Follow the misadventures of four irreverent grade-schoolers in the quiet, dysfunctional town of South Park, Colorado."
Source [3]: Matt Stone and Trey Parker created the series.
Source [4]: Mentions Plex has cast and crew.
Source [5]: Irrelevant/homonym note.
Overview: Needs to be 160-220 words.
Content available: Stan, Kyle, Cartman, and Kenny deal with global warming, an actor's sexuality being questioned, and the Pope arriving to witness a religious miracle. They are irreverent grade-schoolers in the quiet, dysfunctional town of South Park, Colorado.
Problem: The provided synopsis is very short. I cannot reach 160-220 words without inventing details or repeating the same sentence multiple times, which violates the "verifiable facts" and "original, neutral, encyclopedic prose" rule. However, the prompt requires 160-220 words.
Conflict Resolution: If the source material is insufficient to meet the word count constraint without inventing facts, I must prioritize the "ONLY verifiable facts" and "never invent or guess" rules. However, usually, in these prompts, if I can't hit the word count, I should try to expand the prose as much as possible using the provided facts.
Wait, let's look at the facts again.
Characters: Stan, Kyle, Cartman, Kenny.
Setting: South Park, Colorado.
Themes/Plots: Global warming,
