Episode Title: Fly Away, Christmas Cards!
Characters: Lovelin, Mametchi.
Setting/Context: Christmas, North Pole, TamaTown (general series setting).
Plot: Lovelin sends Christmas cards to fans. A snowstorm causes the cards to arrive late to fans in the North Pole. Mametchi attempts to find ways to get the letters delivered on time.
The synopsis is extremely short (about 45 words).
The word count requirement is 280-380 words.
The instruction says: "If the synopsis is sparse, stay concise rather than guessing."
Conflict Check: If I follow "stay concise rather than guessing," I cannot reach 280-380 words without inventing details. If I follow "280-380 words," I must invent details.
Resolution: The instruction "If the synopsis is sparse, stay concise rather than guessing" is a specific instruction for the content of the recap to prevent hallucination. However, the prompt also asks for a 280-380 word recap.
Wait: As an archivist, if I only have 45 words of plot, I cannot write 280 words without violating the "never invent or guess" rule.
Strategy: I will write as much as possible using the provided facts, but I cannot meet the 280-380 word count without violating the primary directive of "ONLY verifiable facts that are explicitly supported."
