Ouch, They Got Sick

''...and it just ever so happens that the best player on our team can't show up! We've gotta win, and YOU gotta help us!''

Seen in athletic, theater, and musicalundefined situations, Ouch, He Got Sick refers to when a person turns up sick, injured, or simply absent for the Big Dramatic Final and the Main has to take over for them. This is the point where the Main can make up for all of their failures in the past and have a guaranteed Moment Of Perfection. They succeed in whatever they're doing and everyone's happy because. Cue Credits.

For many people, The Bullshit Meter Is Hitting High because of how they may perceive this to be another case of Plot Ex Machina and/or The Stars Are Aligning.
