Answer: Deus Ex Machina

The dictionary definition of this reads: "any active agent who appears unexpectedly to solve any insoluble difficulty". The phrase basically means that the gods step in to settle disputes between people at unexpected times. "Deus ex Machina" was the name of the crane used to lower the gods onto the stage of the ancient Greek theatre.

In the modern theatre, "deus ex machina" basically means an easy answer to a problem, which is what the treasure chest is. Peter's bet on the dodgeball match increased his cash flow so much that he is able to buy the controlling stock of Globo-Gym.

The other phrases mean "In many, one", "Buyer, beware", and "Always wear underwear".

Answer: True

A native of "Romanovia", Fran Stalinofskivitchdavitovichsky (Missi Pyle) is the deadliest woman on Earth with a dodgeball. Her expertise comes from playing on the company team of the power plant where she works. She demonstrates this by hitting a guy so hard with a dodgeball, it kills him. Fran is incredibly ugly, but Owen the loser (Joel Moore) falls for her at first sight. I don't understand why Missi Pyle always winds up playing really goofy-looking characters.

She's beautiful!

Answer: 3

Stiller got so caught up in the action of the game, he lost control of where he was throwing. He even hit Christine Taylor right in the face!
