This is probably a stupid question, but how does the town determine who gets to become members of society and who becomes dinner?

eta: Is this something explained in the comics? Or is it just the town has been together since the beginning and anyone new happening upon the town is out of luck?

They were probably already a group, began to run low on supplies/food and thought up the plan to stay alive.

At this point I would say everyone who shows up is dinner, but I'm not really sure.

Whoever has no issue with eating other humans is probably allowed to stay

Btw, what the hell was the point of the man who got swarmed and eaten in the middle of nowhere? Wat

I read a FOILER that said the man intentionally runs into the group of walkers to commit suicide, and he yells "I'M NOT GOING TO TERMINUS" over and over as he does it. I thought it sounded kinda cool. Sets Terminus up as a CLEARLY dark place if a guy is willing to let himself be devoured to avoid it

the foilers were 10x better than this sack of shit.

I understand wanting to get people excited about "RICK IS BACK" but no one cares about rick that much. We gave up on him a long time ago.

America's FIRST Spy Ring!!!!

AH, the UNTOLD story! (:

(we just finished on the west coast - aka - hollywood)

America's FIRST Spy Ring....... they are messing with the wrong people!

Woah!

Last line should have been

"Who we are"

There's just no poetry to this show

I mean we had Carl's "who ARE we" and the whole flashbacks juxtaposing Rick playing SIMPLE FARMHAND and the present in which they may not be as sadistic but are by now MORE DANGEROUS than any of the groups they've gone up against

It's kind of a WALTER WHITE transition by which having systematically eliminated all threats they become the greatest threat

Maybe Rick should have said "... I am the danger." lol

But seriously writers, what. "Who we are" writes itself. "Screwin with the wrong people" is as gay as a teenage nerd playing with legos.

THAT BLACK MARK ASIDE, this was the first episode I found genuinely difficult to watch ... I did enjoy Rick's righteous violence but the lead-up was rather unpleasant. lol!

I wonder if Beth being given the SHERIFF HAT is FORESHADOWING and in season 5 we'll find out she has become the leader of Terminus, still wearing the hat

(:

THOUGHTS ON GIMPLE/SEASON 4:

He's clearly done a lot better than whoever was showrunner for season 3, but what I rly like is how he's brought the entire SERIES ARC into focus again. The MESSAGE if you will is that Dale and Herschel are wrong, Shane and Carol are right. And Rick's JOURNEY has been from the former to the latter. You can't have democracy and a simple, sustainable lifestyle. It would be a TRANSGRESSIVE message (it's anti-peace, anti-humanist, pro-violence) except it only rly applies within the fictional world of zombie apocalypse
