I’m writing a paper and ran into a problem. I’m not sure if I need to do an in-text citation if I already mentioned the episode title for the show I’m referencing in the sentence. For example if I wrote: “In the episode: ‘The Gang Buys a Boat,’ they discover...” at the beginning of the sentence, would I need to put (“The Gang Buys a Boat”) at the end of the sentence or could I forgo the citation since the episode title was already mentioned in the sentence itself? The format is MLA for the citations. Thank you!

@jim This is perfectly on topic in the narrow sense of providing an objective answer to the question. (There would not be style guide tags for this site otherwise.)

Why do you think that The Gang Buys a Boat needs a citation in the first place? What is it that you are citing? The title of an episode, alone, doesn't require a citation. It's only if you are referencing an authoritative source that you need to say what that source is. In this case, it's not clear to me that the source would be the title of the episode. It's more likely it would be a book that mentions it, or a website that links to a video of the episode. So, the title of the episode aside, what is the source that you are using for the claim that you are making?
