Deus ex machina, meaning 'god from the machine,' is a divine figure that appears out of the blue to provide a magical solution to a hopeless problem.

This 500 BC Greek/Roman dramatic device utilized the timely appearance of a god to resolve the plot complications. The god usually appeared in the sky with the help of a 'mechane,' or crane.

Aeschylus, Sophocles and Euripides, were all Deus ex machina fans. The plays Eumenides, Philoctetes and Medea, all use divine intervention to solve a crisis.
