Edith Montgomery:
[after Doc deletes several lines from her paper] What are you doing?

Dr. Martin Ellingham:
You don't need any of this. You're putting HSG at the top, mentioned it again in the middle, and then at the end. It starts to feel repetitive.

Edith Montgomery:
Tell the reader what you're going to tell them, tell them, then tell them what you've told them.

Dr. Martin Ellingham:
The readers of the British Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology aren't stupid. They know what they're being told without being warned of it in advance and reminded of it at the end. This whole page needs tightening. You've become verbose.
