Drafting Content:
Sam Winchester investigates a case involving missing babies and the murder of their parents. During the investigation at one of the crime scenes, Sam discovers a baby that was left behind. Sam calls Dean Winchester for assistance. Dean is initially reluctant to leave Lisa and Ben, but he eventually agrees to meet Sam. Upon meeting, Dean surprises his brother with how parental he has become. The brothers take the baby to Samuel. Samuel decides that the baby should be raised as a hunter, a decision that infuriates Dean. Before the brothers can reach a decision regarding the baby's future, a shape-shifter breaks into the location and attempts to kidnap the infant.
Word Count Check:
The draft above is very short (approx 125 words). The requirement is 280-380 words.
Problem: The provided synopsis is extremely sparse. 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 violating the "never invent or guess" rule.
Re-evaluating Constraints:
"Write a grounded 280-380 word episode recap..." vs "If the synopsis is sparse, stay concise rather than guessing."
This is a conflict. If I write 280 words based on a 70-word synopsis without adding anything,
