My theory, newcomers who eat the human/zombie flesh offered to them on a plate are welcomed, people who reject it are eaten. Might explain why Glenn n co wound up in the same place, they made the same decision to reject Terminus as well. I get that just from a feeling about the human size of the drum under the grill, and the people at Terminus seem oddly healthy; they look like they have and have had a steady supply of meat.
I'll bet Rick n crew take over Terminus. They are all stuck on how good it used to be in the prison, or at least they had some sense of security, and they can't totally get over it and that's what they are all searching for. And now the people at Terminus gave them a reason. Maybe Rick will even pull a Governor like move, now that he has come to terms with the inner struggle between humanity and brutality.
Oh yeah, there were a lot of context clues.
- Rick explaining to his son how you funnel animals into your snare, by only giving them one place to go
- The People in Terminus had a big - ass grill and fresh meat on it
- The people in Terminus herded Rick & Co to the boxcar
- The people in Terminus seemed reluctant to send Carl into the boxcar (presumably because he's a kid?)
- Crazy candles and people's names pained all over the floor and stuff
- Rick & Co ran by a boxcar with other people inside of it shouting for help
- Rick & Co ran by metal cages with piles of human bones in them. The bones were bloody, but cleaned of all flesh.
My conclusion is cannibals. TWD already had an episode on the inevitable illness, it seems to me that Cannibalism is also inevitable. When I saw the bones in the cage I knew for sure it was cannibalism.
