Lauren Cohan addressed this on Talking Dead. Maggie is/was singularly focused on Glenn. She viewed finding Glenn as finding safety and viewed it as Beth would be with Glenn. One would think she might be more motivated now in finding her sister.

If we see someone making a stew while singing Tom Waits songs next week, we'll know what happened.

And if we do, let's hope the producers don't title it "Alive".

Followed by setting up camp underneath the crumbling and partially collapsed ceiling.

This. If I'm walking down the road with this guy for days on end it just might occur to me to ask, you know.. like after we're done discussing football, our favorite movie, and what's the deal with airline food.. "so how did all this start anyhow and how do we stop it?" I guess nobody really cares. Meh.

I also like how people keep their hair nice and trim and cars start right up on 4 year old gasoline.

Kirkman's one word to describe the season finale is "savage"

This was a decent episode, I just like that we are getting back to a larger group and that Rick was in this episode. The tunnel was decent. More abraham which was good. A little more character development of Eugene and Rosita.

Terminus looks like it could be a cannibalistic cult group residing there based on the preview. All these welcoming signs, just a big trap.
Edit: Going back through the replies now, I see this is the popular theory.

When I saw that big-ass bbq at Terminus, I immediately thought of the bbq scene in Fried Green Tomatoes.

Should be a good finale, next week!

"claimed!"

If I started seeing a bunch of singed to a "safe" location like Terminus I could be curious yet I would wonder why they would want to make themselves a target. Of course it's possible some nice normal people want to have a community because it makes since to work together.

So I guess with the limited budget, this Terminus set will be with us for the next two seasons?

The Terminus people are obviously eating zombie meat. Cannibalism is so last year.

Wow, that painting confirms a theory of mine. Sasha said something a few episodes back about how "we get warnings, if we don't heed them, that's on us." In the same episode, a one eyed dog showed up at the house where Daryl and Beth were holed up. I think one-eyed people/things (like the Governor) are a harbinger of doom on the show. Sure enough, the dog was a warning of what was to come next -- the kidnappers. Notice the painting above with one eye crossed off.

At least that female soldier who looked like she was participating in a Maxim photoshoot actually of some clothes on. Though when you're running from zombies with grasping hands, I get the sense that those schoolgirl pigtails would be highly impractical. I kind of like the lesbian girl, wonder if she'll become part of the gang come next season. For people who've had access to no hygienic supplies for years, everyone on this show has perfect teeth! What's this about a " limited budget?" With the success the show is having, I would think AMC would be willing to throw more money than ever at it.

I think you are missing the "L" -- as in "we need to salvage this season." At least it looks like the Hobbits will make it out of the Shire next week.

Beth showed up on The Following tonight. There is no word yet on whether Kevin Bacon will cross over to The Walking Dead.

^Maybe he's dancing around inside that big old TERMINUS building.

"Early in the outbreak"? It's been over two years...

According to this website, we are only a bit past day 506.

Even at two years, that seems awful early for food to completely run out. Wild game could easily outrun the zombies so there is still non-human meat out there.

Was expecting Glenn to hock a loogie into the tunnel and say "Fuckin' A, biggest piece of meat in the cave"

Okay, all of this talk about BBQ and stuff has me wanting to grill out this week. Any recommendations?

I recommend hickory smoked Beth's labia with a side order of sautéed areola.

How about Judith on the rotisserie with an apple in her mouth. We didn't see Carol and Tyreese this episode, they may already be there. You have to assume Beth is toast, she was a featured character in a few episodes this 2nd half after being irrelevant the first few seasons. The group Daryl is with didn't snatch her. I'm expecting a creepy finale.

Bah, horrible, horrible, horrible! Add a bottle of a nice Merlot and now we are talking.

The only thing that will be "shocking" next week is IF they don't kill off a major character and Terminus is not full of cannibals. Seeing how they like to keep trying to "shock" everyone. I am OK with anyone they want to off. Even Daryl...one less show to watch and worry about then as I only really watch it for his character. No one else really matters to me anyway.

I was wondering why Abraham and Rosita look so well-pressed. They're both clean and well-groomed, and their clothes look new and clean,as opposed to folks like Rick and Daryl who look they've haven't bathed in a year.
