The Walking Dead so far!

Well we are 3 episodes in on the newest season of The Walking Dead. A lot has already happened. Spoilers are ahead if you haven't seen any of the show.
One thing that happened really quickly is that they were out of terminus in the first episode, thanks to Carol. Carol proved to be a major bad ass in that first episode. Of course she already was pretty tough because she did things I don't see anyone else being able to do. Example killing Lizzie, Rick the way he is now, would've been able to do it, but before, when he was the farmer, not so much.
Carol starts a big riot with an explosion, which let all the walkers into Terminus. Pulling a trick from way back she covers herself in yucky walker guts, and walks with them infiltrating Terminus and shooting a bunch of people including Mary (the cook, Gareth's mom).
While all that is going on, it gives Rick, Glenn, and Daryl the opportunity to escape before being drained. They shoot a few Terminus people and release their people from train car A.
Tyrese has Judith, and beats the crap out of some Terminus dude that threatens to kill Judith. (Carol and Tyrese tied him up, not very good obviously, he confirmed what Carol thought about the group being in trouble. Which leads to her going into Terminus with the walkers.)
The end of the first episode is pretty awesome, it shows every reuniting, Tyrese reuniting with Sasha, and Rick/Carl reuniting with Judith. The first episode was the best season premiere ever in my opinion. Also at the end Morgan shows up, and it looks like he's following the group, tracking them.. something like that.
Episode 2 starts with the group talking about a few things, Carol talking with Daryl, I'm guessing about things she's done, basically the group is kinda mending fences. They hear a man screaming, needing help and it turns out to be Gabriel who's a priest. He leads them to his church. Right off the bat you can tell that Gabriel is scared to death, he's a coward, seems harmless, but does have a secret. You see little clues here and there, about what it is. He also takes part of the group to a close food bank where they get supplies. But it's a close call because there is about 10 walkers where the food is, along with a ton of water which leaked into the basement from a hole in the roof. But things happen and Bob gets pulled under the water, and lives. Later that night though he walks outside the church for some reason, and starts crying. This leads you to believe he was bitten. He's knocked out by Gareth and some more Terminus people, and wakes up tied up, by a campfire where they are eating his leg.
Now episode 3, confirms that Bob was bitten, he tells the hunters who've kidnapped him and ate his leg. He tells them that he's "Tainted Meat". Of course this freaks them out, and they start spitting the meat out. They take him back to the church and leave him outside. While he was kidnapped in the previous episode I forgot to mention that Carol almost leaves, but Daryl stops her and then they take off in a car chasing a car that has people that took Beth in it.
The group (Rick's Group) find Bob outside the church, after confronting Gabriel forcing him to tell his secret that he locked himself in his church and let all of his "flock" die outside the church.
They think Gabriel had something to do with three of their group missing. But they realize he didn't.
And once they get Bob back they find out it was the hunters, (people of terminus) that took him. They set up a plan that involves a few tricks. They trap the hunters in the church and ambush them, killing them all. After that Abraham, Rosetta, Eugene, Glenn & Maggie (who were kinda forced but chose to in the end), and Tara all leave to go to Washington D.C. I think that's the worst thing they could've done, is separate the group again. They just got back together, and it sucks.
Michonne sets on the churches steps and talks with Gabriel for a while, until they hear a noise, and Gabriel runs in. Michonne walks towards the trees, only to see Daryl stepping out, looking a bit sad, and moving slow. She asks where Carol is, and he doesn't say anything, he looks behind him telling someone in the trees they can come out.
So my question now is who the hell was in the trees behind him. You would think that if it was a guy, he wouldn't be hiding behind Daryl, but Daryl has no crossbow, so does the person have Carol as a hostage, and has Daryl's crossbow?? Or has Carol gone undercover where Beth is? Is the person Morgan? He might not know that he's following Rick's group, and therefore is a bit skittish about things. What do you think? Is the person Beth? But we see in the previews that Beth is in a hospital type environment. But I'm thinking, like other episodes that is going to be a flashback, showing exactly what happened when she was taken, and what has happened since. But what do you think about the season so far? Will the group meet up again??
