Constraint 3: No guessing or inventing plot points.
Constraint 4: Write original, neutral, encyclopedic prose in plain text.

Constraint 6: Word count must be 280-380 words.
Synopsis: "The team helps Skip Tracer Randy when his new love interest is kidnapped. Meanwhile, Angela and Nyla enlist their moms to help catch a con artist, and Wesley is threatened to drop a case."

Episode Title: Mutiny and the Bounty (S7E17).
Plot Point 1: The team assists Skip Tracer Randy after his new love interest is kidnapped.
Plot Point 2: Angela and Nyla enlist their mothers to assist in catching a con artist.
Plot Point 3: Wesley faces a threat to drop a case.
The synopsis is extremely brief.
The word count requirement is 280-380 words.
Problem: If I only use the provided facts, I cannot reach 280 words without repeating myself or adding fluff, which violates the "neutral, encyclopedic prose" and "never invent" rules.
Constraint Conflict: "Write a grounded 280-380 word episode recap" vs "If the synopsis is sparse, stay concise rather than guessing."
Resolution: As an archivist, I must follow the instruction to use only provided facts. If the facts provided do not allow for a 280-word count without violating the "no guessing/no inventing" rule, I have a conflict. However, I can expand on the context provided in the sources (the series premise) to provide a professional introduction, then detail the episode's specific plot points.
Series Context (from sources): The Rookie is a crime, drama, and comedy series created by Alexi Hawley. It stars Nathan Fillion, Alyssa Diaz, Richard T. Jones, and Melissa O'Neil. The series follows John Nolan, a small-town man who, following a life-altering incident, pursues his dream of joining the LAPD. As the oldest rookie on the force, Nolan faces skepticism from some higher-ups who view him as a walking midlife crisis.
