I think Terminus is some kind of cult. Did anyone notice she was cooking a bunch of meat but I didn't see ANY livestock. I think the candles were some kind of ritual sacrifice and every group that comes in has to sacrifice one of their own to feed the colony.

Ewwwwwww...that's just freakin' nasty!

Hopefully Carl. If it's based on lowest IQ, definitely Carl.

I liked this episdoe, but man Glenn ****** me off. So stupid he almost got Tara killed, go around the tunnel filled with walkers moron.

Really like the Abraham and Eugene group, like the characters, and them having an actual goal other than just surviving.

I didn't get the whole hesitance about going around. How could it possibly add a whole day unless it was going through a mountain (which we've never seen)?

I like Daryl's group too and it will be interesting to see what happens when/if they meet up with Rick.

I really want to find out what happened to Beth. It's weird that there's only one episode left this season. Hopefully they cram in a lot.

I feel like that was pretty much implied, even though they didn't directly show it.

Very possible....

From what I've read, there's a group in the comics called the Hunters. They are a group of cannibals who ate their own children to survive, because they could not find/hunt enough food. Now they hunt people, as they are easier targets.

Would be a big adaptation to have them be the group at Terminus, but the show has done plenty of that already.

Yeah, and didn't they just get that minivan, drive to the other entrance and Eugene estimated they should be coming out about now? Seems like if anything, that was quicker.

I was not a big fan of last nights episode. After the previous week it would be hard to top that. I have a feeling we will be left with a lot of cliffhangers at the end of the finale.

My guess is that most of the first half of season 5 is the group heading towards Washington.

I found it rather strange that Terminus had no guards, no locks and no real fortifications. Just walk right in. In a world like TWD that's just an invitation for trouble. Hopefully next week is real interesting.

I could be wrong, but I was under the impression there was another barrier beyond the first one they walked through. I thought the sign said something to the effect of "Wait here and someone will let you in".

The helicopter is the one that crashed and the Gov and his men found.

Ah, yes... now I remember that.

I have a feeling Terminus is going to be a nightmare.... and overall, will not be a long stay for our current cast of characters. I am more interested if the characters start heading up to D.C. Finding out what caused all of this and being able to stop it really interests me.

Cult sounds about right. They are just too nice and trusting.

Haha yep, the logistics and timelien made little sense, definitely contrived for the drama. Hey, its the Walking Dead, I love it but the writing has never been top-notch quality.

Well, the initial plan was to walk around which would have taken longer. Fortunately they found a vehicle.

I just find it strangely weird ALL the loose ends there are yet to tie up, and have them only getting to Terminus the second to last episode.

- Have Carol, Tyrese, and Judith already made it to Terminus?
- Have Rick, Carl, and Michonne even seen those signs for Terminus? (Actually, in the snippet they showed on Talking Dead, it appears they are headed that way, but had they seen a sign about it by the end of last week's episode?)
- What happened to/where is Beth?
- What about Daryl and his new buddies?

Just a LOT of questions.
