Is an in-text citation needed if I already mentioned the show title?

Multi tool use
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!
