Well sure, whatever those surrounding buildings were...

I can not remember if it was us, here in this thread or on Talking Dead where the idea was raised that the chapel/funeral home Daryl and Beth got separated was a trap set by the people who abducted her.

Is that even still plausible? That these cops set a trap out in East Bumble, Georgia and then drive out there to check it from DT Atlanta? When that scene was set up, we saw how meticulous some of the corpses were taken care of, even after the ZA and I think some were zombies that were prepared for funerals. With the crosses on the cars, I thought they were going for some sort of religious cult/zealot like slant. But now that the drivers are revealed to be cops trying to restore order in a hospital, nothing so sinister seems to be going on. I'm guessing the chapel had to have belonged to someone else and they just got lucky stumbling into Beth and Daryl and set up the zombie flash mob on the porch, but it just doesn't quite fit.

Yeah, I'm having trouble understanding why the hospital/cop group would even want or need to go out "rescuing" or trapping people. New people they bring in are, in their words, a drain on resources. The only benefit they can provide is a worker bee to iron the scrubs, mop floors, and launder police uniforms. So why go out patrolling every day to find survivors and "save" them? Why would they need to set traps to catch people? I mean, they're not eating them! At least that would make sense

The lady who runs the hospital believes they will be part of a new generation who keep the world going, so it makes sense they would keep looking for new survivors. They're also careful not to save those they think will be a threat to their dictatorship, but little do they know the real Carol & Beth.
The final episode will likely have the group going into the hospital to rescue Beth & Carol. Next week could just be filler dealing with the plan set-up, and the backstory with Glenn & the paramilitary dude.

Could the final episode please include Morgan? It's evil that we got a split second of him the first episode and nuthin since.

That has already been done with Merle hot-wiring the Impala for the trip with Michone back to Woodbury and Dale constantly working on his RV to keep it running.
Who is to say that the cars have been sitting around for the entire 18 months to 2 years of the Zombie Apocalypse? Maybe the truck that Daryl & Noah took last night has only been sitting around for a few hours or a few days, or maybe even a few weeks? Maybe Daryl - the expert tracker that he is - saw a bunch of cars around and saw that the truck has not accumulated 18 months of dust & dirt on it, so could be workable? It also could very well have been driven by somebody following another car back to Grady... maybe some friends of that other doctor they brought in last week? They park the car there, attempt to sneak into Grady and get ambushed by walkers, or picked up by the Grady spotters or something? Bingo, a car that's practically warm for them to take.

Morgan's probably already inside the hospital, plotting to "clear" it, maybe he's posing as that mysterious janitor guy Beth noticed in last week's ep

when they first met Eugene, he had been in radio contact with somebody in DC until the previous week. Maybe they'll realize that maybe there is some sort of civilization still there?

You know Eugene was lying, right? It was all one big lie. ALL OF IT. There is nothing in DC or anywhere else.
