NBC’s ‘Revolution’ season 2, episode 3 preview: Rachel fights to stay alive

What is it with constantly seeing so many cliffhangers regarding Elizabeth Mitchell and whether or not her character survives something? The first time that we saw it, it was with Juliet on “Lost,” and we imagine that most of you are very familiar already with just how that story ended. (Spoiler alert from 2010!) Anyway, this promo for next week’s “Revolution” season 2 episode again makes us feel like her life is in jeopardy, but we imagine somehow that she will find a way to survive taking an arrow.

Not only is Rachel going to be attacked during what is an invasion of the Town of Willoughby, but she is going to try and lend a helping hand to Miles in what is definitely a time of need. Want to read some more on that very subject? Then just check out the full synopsis below:

“Rachel (Elizabeth Mitchell) makes a valiant attempt to rescue Miles (Billy Burke) and to escape with an ailing Tribesman’s wife, while Neville (Giancarlo Esposito) and Jason (JD Pardo) are caught off-guard, assaulted by violent refugees. Charlie (Tracy Spiridakos) and Adam (Patrick Heusinger) are at odds over what to do with Monroe (David Lyons). Legions of Tribesmen threaten all of Willoughby but with questionable leadership and Aaron (Zak Orth) faces death, yet again.”

By the time this episode ends, hopefully there will be a little more insight into just what is going to happen with all of these characters, and the action starts to pick up a little bit. Plus, is Aaron going to die so many times that he becomes like that character on “Game of Thrones” that the Lord of Light revives again and again? Wait … are the nanites actually the Lord of Light? Is Melisandre guest-starring on the show next week? So many questions!
