Input Data:
Synopsis: "Over the past two decades, Chris Hansen's investigations have led to hundreds of would-be sex criminals being stopped in their tracks. Amazingly, after 500 arrests and hundreds of millions of video views, men continue to try to meet children online. So his mission continues."
Sources: TMDB, IMDB, Moviefone (mentioning Chris Hansen and Grady Judd).
Subject: Takedown with Chris Hansen.

Achievements mentioned: Hundreds of would-be sex criminals stopped, 500 arrests, hundreds of millions of video views.
Problem: Men continue to try to meet children online.
Mission: To continue investigations.
Constraint Check: The prompt asks for "Season 3". However, the provided text does not specify details for Season 3 specifically. It provides a general series overview. I must use the provided text to describe the narrative arc as it pertains to the series/season context provided.
Constraint Check: The word count for overview must be 160-220 words.
Problem: The provided synopsis is very short (approx 45 words). To reach 160-220 words without inventing facts is impossible.
Wait: Let me re-read the instructions. "Write ONLY verifiable facts that are explicitly supported by the provided SYNOPSIS and SOURCES."
If the source text is only 45 words, and I am required to write 160-220 words, I cannot fulfill the word count requirement without violating the "never invent or guess" rule.
