Episode Title: The Mickey (S7E7).
Celina's last day as a rookie.
John gives Celina one final test.
Bailey makes a new friend.
Lucy places her faith in Seth for an undercover assignment.
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" that violates the "no inventing/guessing" rule.
Constraint Check: "If the synopsis is sparse, stay concise rather than guessing."
Conflict: The user asks for 280-380 words, but the source material only provides about 40 words of plot.
Strategy: I must provide the facts available. If I cannot reach the word count without violating the "no inventing" rule, I must prioritize the "only verifiable facts" and "omit rather than guess" rules. However, usually, in these prompts, I should try to expand using the series context provided in the sources if possible, but the sources only provide general series descriptions, not episode-specific details.
