"We Will Rise" is a great episode that shows, again, the strengths of "The 100" and its position as a very smart (even if sometimes conventional) show. And it does in a way that overcomes the lack of focus that it is having this season.
Clarke, Bellamy and Roan have to deliver fuel to Raven for her trip. Raven, which is getting crazy at the impossibility of doing the mission with the little fuel they have left ('poor' Murphy paying for her frustration). And at what is left from Arkadia people are asking for revenge, blood and a sacrifice.
The show intertwines the three story-lines of the episode flawlessly, with great pace, amazing scenes, and great direction. It doesn't give a moment of respite, and, in the few moments where the action slows down, it gives us plot development and character study, developing the characters we have got to care for. And if that was not enough it also keeps touching on aspects about power, class, humanity and what is behind our decisions, humanizing all the characters along the way. The reasons behind the character's decisions make sense, even if you may not agree with them. That the show won't let go of these classical but always relevant questions is a plus.
"The 100" still has a lot to offer.
