The only thing I question is how Carol knew that Terminus was bad news? She hears gunshots and instantly knows it's a trap?

I can pretty much guarantee we're going to see that guy again, and he'll probably kill a group member...call it the Saving Private Ryan German soldier moment.

She's the most fatalistic character on the show, so I can see her knowing something was rotten in the proverbial Denmark...but still, there's a wide gap between proceeding with extreme caution and immediately lathering yourself in intestines and blowing up propane tanks
...thinking back, apparently she did get there and see them hauling off Rick though, so I guess it made more sense than at first I thought it did.

I enjoyed the episode, though then ending was all a bit too Hallmark moment for me. That won't last though, so that's OK. I do like the direction they moved. Some of it was still beyond ridiculous...the aim of the bottle rocket, the dumbasses who had survived years this way but apparently couldn't shoot a gun at anything and were generally dumber than fuck, and my personal favorite, the "No Country for Old Menning" of the prisoners just happens to stop right before any of the group gets hurt in the beginning...
...but all in all it was a nice way to start the season. A couple of random thoughts:-That was the dude from the first episode in Atlanta at the end right? The guy who lost his wife and kid that they ran into again at that compound type thing? That could be interesting.
-As I said before, I expect that a) Tyresse did not kill that guy, and b) not only will we see him again, but he will likely kill a group member, perhaps his sister, and maybe right in front of him.
-Obviously Gareth is somewhere with a few stragglers, and obviously the groups will meet again. Sets up a great dynamic there when the rules have changed.
-I completely disagree about killing off the baby, I think that adds some deeper story arc...for Rick, for Carl, for the group in general...it already has, hell Carole put a bullet in the head of Bipolar Barbie basically to protect her.
-I almost wish they hadn't killed off so much of Gareth's family...and it was hard to know which ones of them aside from the mother all died...so fast. I mean what was the point in introducing the backstory and the beginning and end of such an important episode, just to kill them off? I guess it was the whole both groups are the same and different, humans turning to monsters, yada yada yada, but we've seen enough of that already...it was badass when Carole fed her to the walkers though.
-So...they were cannibals, I suppose? But didn't it seem like more than that? Was all that just an elaborate way of luring and preserving the meat, or was there more to it? I especially thought the 3 bins, one with "Feed" one with "Wash" and one with "Burn" were phenomenally creepy, but seemed to indicate something deeper...or maybe I am just overreading it?

Thought he was the dude with the son that saved Rick in the first couple of episodes that RIck runs into later, dude had lost his mind because his son had turned and he was hold up in the town.

Thought this was an interesting tidbit from a comments section, I have seen it multiple times, but I missed it when I watched it:
I never would have caught it if not for what Nicotero and Gimple said on "Talking Dead", but if you recall in the episode last season where Carol meets the young couple in the house and then the girl gets killed and the boy goes missing - the boy is the first one killed at the trough. And fun fact: the actor is the guy who plays Penguin on "Gotham", they said they flew him out for the day for his scene, which didn't even have any dialog, then flew him back when they were done.

Yes, that was Morgan at the very end.
I think the producers have been watching Marvel movies to much in the off season. That was a credits cut scene if I've ever seen one.
Looks like we'll meet Father Gabriel in the next episode. He plays a pretty large role in the comic from what I've read

I thought there was a moment of recognition there between Rick and the dude, but I couldn't place the guy.

Good catch about Tyresse--he was yelling "no" while he was hitting the guy, wasn't he? As in, "No, I won't be a killer"? Flashback to the inmate at the prison that Rick locked outside with walkers, but didn't chose to kill the guy himself, and who was the cause of the later walker invasion and, indirectly, Lori's demise. Decisions have consequences.
The guy at the end was Morgan, who sheltered Rick in Season 1, Ep. 1, and who reappeared later having lost his young son to his zombie wife that he couldn't bring himself to head shot.
Another character reprise from The Talking Dead last night--the first guy lined up with them at the trough who was slaughtered was the missing Sam from the hippie couple that Rick ran into during a trip into town in a previous season. The walkers got his girlfriend, but he never showed up again. Rick had given him his watch, and the intranets are saying that was the same watch Carol was contemplating when she came across the trophy room at Terminus. (Is it just me, or shouldn't it have been a monster hint that no good was going to come from a place whose name means "the end/final point.")
This guy>
Another tip from TTD: Not a follower of the comics, but apparently a character from them called Father Gabriel will turn up next week.

Also I have seen it suggested, multiple times, that the crazy fucker with the tattooed face that they free from the box car at Glen's insistence was the rapist from the "Then" flashback portion at the end...hence him coming out and screaming "We're the same!" before getting summarily eaten.

Oh did she? They have so fucking long between seasons anymore that I forget what even happened.She's the most fatalistic character on the show, so I can see her knowing something was rotten in the proverbial Denmark...but still, there's a wide gap between proceeding with extreme caution and immediately lathering yourself in intestines and blowing up propane tanks

I think it was in this episode...she moved forward and had a look after leaving Tyresse with Judith and redneck asshole #6461267, and I seem to remember her seeing that they were pulling Rick and the others off the ground in straps after gassing them, which prompted her to move to the location of blowing shit up.
