"The Same Boat" is the thirteenth episode of the sixth season and 80th episode overall of the post-apocalyptic horror television series The Walking Dead, which aired on AMC on March 13, 2016. The episode was written by Angela Kang and directed by Billy Gierhart.
This episode focuses on the characters of Carol (Melissa McBride) and Maggie (Lauren Cohan), who are captured by members of Negan's group known as the Saviors. It marks a turning point in an ongoing plot arc for Carol, one of the most cutthroat members of Rick's (Andrew Lincoln) group, who is forced to re-examine herself as she is confronted by a remorseless killer: Paula (Alicia Witt).
Carol Peletier (Melissa McBride) and Maggie Greene (Lauren Cohan) are survivors in a post-apocalyptic world overrun by zombies, colloquially referred to as "walkers," "growlers" or "coldbloods." Other members of their group, including Carol's close friend Daryl Dixon (Norman Reedus) and Maggie's devoted husband Glenn Rhee (Steven Yeun), were recently led by Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) to make a pre-emptive sneak-attack against another community of survivors known as the Saviors. Daryl had previously been threatened by a group of Saviors he was able to kill, and Maggie negotiated a mercenary deal to eliminate the Saviors and their leader, Negan. Using ruthless tactics such as killing people in their sleep and gunning-down those attempting to escape, the group slaughter two dozen Saviors. Although one of Rick's most stalwart allies, Carol refused her assignment on the main attack and insisted on staying with a pregnant Maggie on the sidelines.
