The entire last half of the episode I was trying to figure out whether the Terminus people were cannibals or not. Too many indications that say yes. But at the same time it's weird that so many people have bought into this lifestyle of trapping travellers and feeding on them like they're cattle. Pretty messed up.. or maybe I've seen too many horror flicks where the cannibals are portrayed as clans of hunch-backed inbreds.
Kind of dark episode, really kept you hooked, though. It was fun. I'm also glad they finally got their dark pasts out in the open this season, cause I personally don't care for example what happened to Michonne. We get that things are screwed up now, and she had to do some messed up stuff before. It just really slows down the present storyline when they have to take timeouts every so often to sit around and put on their cry faces while reflecting back on stuff the audience doesn't have much of an emotional connection to.
I really don't mind the flashbacks as much as when they throw those moments in.
