Moviegoer 1: Couldn't they have thought of a better way for them to pay him back than just winning $80,000 in blackjack?

Moviegoer 2: Yeah, the writers pulled a total deus ex slot machina...

Deus Ex Machina

Literally "God from the machine", Deus Ex Machina originally referred to Greek plays, where the "gods" would be lowered onto the stage in order to provide a quick resolution to the story. Today, Deus Ex Machina refers to any improbably and/or overly convenient character or mechanism that comes out of nowhere saves the character(s) from their doom.

For a hilarious send-up of Deus Ex Machina, check out the spaceship scene in Monty Python's Life of Brian.
