Very good finale. This show's getting really good again. Now for my SPOILER theory on Terminus:
Those of you who read the comic (I don't) have probably already put this together, but I've heard there was a storyline involving cannibals. I'm almost positive that the group at Terminus is an adaptation of that. Let's look at the clues:
First, these people have been putting up signs everywhere to lure people to Terminus claiming it's a sanctuary. When people arrive, they're greeted by a creepy lady cooking, who offers them a plate of food. Second, when shit went down tonight, the snipers on the roof were careful not to kill Rick and his group, but instead corralled them toward a specific area. During that scene, Rick's group runs past a courtyard filled with human bones that have been completely picked clean of their meat. Third, when the group is forced to enter the train, Rick notices a pile of paper plates and powdered milk cartons on the ground - fattening up the prisoners maybe? I think so.
Also, some really nice symbolism earlier in the episode is when Rick is showing Carl and Michonne how to catch food with the trap set up so that the rabbits are lead through a certain way into the snare. Very cool. People who claim that The Walking Dead lacks good writing clearly don't notice things like this.
Overall a very strong episode and I'm very much looking forward to its return.
