"Always Accountable" is the sixth episode of the sixth season and 73rd episode overall of the post-apocalyptic horror television series The Walking Dead, which aired on AMC on November 15, 2015. The episode was written by Heather Bellson and directed by Jeffrey F. January.
This episode focuses on Abraham, Sasha and Daryl's plotlines after the events of "Thank You". It marks the first appearance of the characters Dwight and his wife Sherry from the comic books, who are played by Austin Amelio and Christine Evangelista, respectively.
Daryl (Norman Reedus), Sasha (Sonequa Martin-Green) and Abraham (Michael Cudlitz) arrive at the 20-mile where Rick believes the walker parade will continue away from Alexandria without further intervention. They turn left on Route 642 to head back home but are soon ambushed by a group of gun-wielding assailants in cars. As they flee, Daryl is separated and crashes his motorcycle. Sasha and Abraham soon crash their car and emerge from the wreckage with guns blazing. They defeat their attackers but Sasha convinces Abraham to flee when they hear reinforcements arriving. Daryl eludes his attackers and quietly walks his motorcycle through a burnt-out path through a forest littered with charred walker bodies. He tries to radio Sasha and Abraham but gets no response. He hides his motorcycle under a pile of branches and finds a pair of sisters, Tina (Liz E. Morgan) and Sherry (Christine Evangelista), who pretend to surrender, diverting Daryl's attention so he is blindsided by Dwight (Austin Amelio).
