"Honey" is the fifth episode of the sixth season of the post-apocalyptic horror television series Fear the Walking Dead, which aired on AMC on November 8, 2020, in the United States.
Dwight and Sherry spend the night together. A radio call from Hill interrupts them, requesting that Dwight and Al return. Sherry gets up. Shortly after, Dwight hears strange noises and investigates. As he approaches a window, a masked individual appears behind the glass. Startled, Dwight flees, but another masked person intercepts and captures him.
In a skatepark, Dwight’s blindfold is removed. Multiple masked people emerge, holding Dwight at gunpoint. Sherry appears; she apologises and explains to Dwight that she is part of the masked group, which is composed of Virginia’s outcasts who are now trying to take Virginia down. Ozzie, a member, threatens to kill Al if he doesn’t tell them Virginia’s whereabouts. Dwight honestly says he doesn’t know. Rollie appears and vouches for him. The group frees Dwight and Al, and discloses that their current objective is to shoot down the SWAT truck. Al advises them to steal the truck instead. The assault on the truck succeeds with the unexpected help of Morgan.
The group reconvenes at the skatepark, and Morgan tells them of a new place to settle. Sherry explains that her group plans on killing Virginia. Conscious of the casualties to come, Morgan declines to participate. Dwight is hesitant, but Sherry convinces him to join. The next day, after failing to extract information from a captured Pioneer, Sherry convinces Dwight to report back in an attempt to lure Virginia out. Dwight radio-calls Hill, successfully requesting an intervention. To protect Dwight, Sherry locks him up alongside Morgan and Al, who have tried to sabotage their plans. The masked group prepare their assault.
At night, Morgan convinces Dwight that attacking now is not a good idea. Dwight frees himself while the Pioneers arrive. He gets to Sherry and talks her into calling the assault off. As the Pioneers leave, Sherry angrily blows up at Dwight, asking him to go. Dwight takes off with Al and Morgan.
En route to their new settlement, they collect the survivors from the city tower. Morgan tells everyone that the place they are heading for will require "a lot of work." Dwight leaves a clue to his destination for Sherry before setting off.
