Does Trekkie Monster's huge donation to the Monsterssori school count as a Deus ex Machina? After The Money Song, it certainly seemed like one to this troper.
Landstander: Probably, but one of the funnier Deus Ex Machinas I've seen. Besides, it's still a satisfying ending when Princeton realizes he hasn't found his purpose but it's ok if he hasn't. I love the song For Now so goddamned much, it's one of the best endings ever in my opinion.
