FactoidDeus ex Machina is Latin for 'God from the Machine" which is a plot device whereby an insoluble problem is abruptly solved by use of an unexpected intervention of some new event, character or object. Depending on usage, it can be used to move the story forward when the writer has "painted himself into a corner".
