Episode recap

Task: Write a 280-380 word episode recap for The Rookie S8E12 (Spy Games).
Constraints:
Use ONLY verifiable facts from the provided SYNOPSIS and SOURCES.
No invented titles, names, dates, episode counts, awards, ratings, box-office, viewership, or plot points.
No guessing or inventing details.
Write original, neutral, encyclopedic prose in plain text.
No markdown, no asterisks, no headings, no bullet points.
Word count target: 280-380 words.
SYNOPSIS: "The FBI and LAPD join forces on a covert sting operation to protect Bailey, while Wesley and Angela face tensions in their marriage when his campaign is threatened by a public scandal."
SOURCES:
[1] General info about The Rookie (2018).
[2] Cast/crew link.
[3] General info about John Nolan.
[4] Tru Valentino promotion info.
[5] Creator Alexi Hawley, cast Nathan Fillion, Alyssa Diaz, Richard T. Jones, Melissa O'Neil.
Episode: S8E12 (Spy Games).
Plot Point 1: FBI and LAPD join forces on a covert sting operation.
Purpose of sting: To protect Bailey.
Plot Point 2: Wesley and Angela face marriage tensions.
Cause of tension: Wesley's campaign is threatened by a public scandal.
The synopsis is extremely brief (two sentences).
The sources provide general series information but no additional details for this specific episode.
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 violating 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 instructions say "If the synopsis is sparse, stay concise rather than guessing." and "Never invent or guess... plot points."
Decision: I must prioritize the instruction to "only use supplied facts" and "never invent or guess." If I cannot reach the word count without inventing facts, I must provide the most accurate, concise summary possible based only on the provided text. However, usually, in these prompts, if a word count is specified, the user expects a certain length. But as an archivist following strict rules, I cannot hallucinate.
Wait, let me re-read. "Write a grounded 280-380 word episode recap". If
