big character death
we've been hearing about all year--and maybe even the cause of the plane crash--was due to a tragic dodgeball mishap! Boom, smack, crack...and we'll have more carnage than we'll see on Carnivale. Nice detective work there!

deus ex machina

(Latin, 'god from the machinery')
A device in Greek theatre in which problems were resolved at the end of a play by the intervention of a god who was apparently brought down from Olympus.
The money would be their "god" that resolves the problems

Re: Random Finding...

i found a website that said:

deus ex ma·chi·na

1. In Greek and Roman drama, a god lowered by stage machinery to resolve a plot or extricate the protagonist from a difficult situation.
2. An unexpected, artificial, or improbable character, device, or event introduced suddenly in a work of fiction or drama to resolve a situation or untangle a plot.
3. A person or event that provides a sudden and unexpected solution to a difficulty.

so it seems as if they will introduce a new charrie or have one of the main charries be 'god like' or help them in a drastic way. my guess it that it is Locke
