Featured reviews
The multi-linear storyline is a lot more captivating than the regular slow moving single story lines they've been rehashing. Following up last week's episode it's impressive that we've been given yet another breath of fresh air.
This episode is a beautifully elaborated chess move, and they finally got the show in check.
Next week's finale, I have a feeling, is going to be intense and predict a MUCH more exciting 5th season than this past season.
The best is yet to come.
10/10 (relative to this season)
Daryl learns that there are strange rules in the group of marauders and he has a problem with one of them named Len. Ben explains the rules to be followed to him and judges their conflict. Rick, Carl and Michonne are also heading to Terminus.
"Us" is one of the best episodes of this Fourth Season and the series finally moves forward after several stalled episodes. The fans certainly are curious about what Terminus might be. Terminus in Latin means "the end" but in what sense is this sanctuary? Will it be the end of a journey or simply the end? Daryl has joined a dangerous group and what will happen when they reach Terminus? Unfortunately there is only one additional episode before the end of the Fourth Season. My vote is nine.
Title (Brazil): "Us"
Note: On 16 April 2016, I saw this show again.
Meanwhile, Daryl struggles to assimilate himself into the Claimers as one of the group. He fight with a man named Len over a freshly-killed rabbit. The leader Joe explains that they only have one rule: if someone wants something, he claims it. He then cuts the rabbit in half for Daryl and Len, since the former was not aware of the rule. Later, Len tries to convince the group that Daryl stole his half of the rabbit. Joe then reveals that he witnessed Len put the rabbit in Daryl's bag. He and the group begin viciously beating Len.
Joe informs Daryl that they are tracking a man who had killed one of their group. That man is possibly headed to Terminus.
Memorable scenes include the group's encounter with the mysterious signs leading to Terminus and the revelation that not everything is as it seems, highlighting the group's growing distrust and wariness of others. Meanwhile, Glenn's determination to find Maggie and reunite with her drives him forward, showcasing the power of love and hope in a world filled with darkness.
We got more insight on a new group of characters... Joe and The Claimers! They have a very simple code to live by.. but do not hesitate and shows no mercy if you stray from that! They believe its survival of the fittest!
The storylines with Glenn and Maggie finaly come together and it was so heartwarming to see!
The episode ended on a highnote that will leave you wanting more!! What is waiting for them at Terminus?

- TriviaIn this episode Abraham refers to Glenn as 'Casey Jones' with his determination to get to Maggie by following the train tracks. This is a reference to the real-life Casey Jones, who was an American Railroader for the Illinois Central Railroad from the years 1863 - 1900. Casey Jones passed away while on a train that collided with a stalled freight train in Mississippi.
- GoofsWhen Joe cuts the rabbit in half, there is blood stain on the tree stem. In the next shot that stain disappears.
- Quotes
[Eugene tells Rosita that he still has to live with the decisions he makes after saving the world]
Dr. Eugene Porter: If Glenn and Tara were still alive and there were no significant delays and they continued traveling at approximately three miles per hour and I timed it correctly in my head, they might be somewhere around here.
Rosita Espinosa: Those two are not the priority. The only priority is getting you to Washington.
Dr. Eugene Porter: After I save the world, I still have to live with myself. I'm not leaving them behind.
