No inventing/guessing titles, names, dates, episode counts, awards, ratings, box-office, viewership, or plot points.
If a detail is missing, omit it.

The synopsis is very short.
The word count requirement is 280-380 words.
Problem: The provided synopsis only contains about 40 words of plot information. The sources provide background on the series and characters but no additional plot details for this specific episode.
Constraint Check: "If the synopsis is sparse, stay concise rather than guessing." AND "Write a grounded 280-380 word episode recap."
Conflict: I cannot reach 280 words without inventing details, which is strictly forbidden. I must prioritize the "never invent or guess" and "only verifiable facts" instructions over the word count if the source material does not support the length. However, I should try to expand using the available series context if it helps, but the prompt asks for an episode recap.
Wait: If I write only what is in the synopsis, it will be about 40 words. If I try to reach 280 words, I will violate the "never invent" rule.
Strategy: I will provide the facts available. I will include the series context provided in the sources (John Nolan's background, the show's premise, the creator, and the main cast
