If the movie is particularly bad, the One Scene Wonder may be [[SignatureScene the only thing remembered about it]], or indeed [[JustHereForGodzilla the only reason anyone watches it]]. When a minor character in a musical does this through the use of one fantastic song, it's MinorCharacterMajorSong.

This is not the same principle as EnsembleDarkHorse, who is usually a secondary character that still gets to make appearances every so often (in comparison, a One-Scene Wonder can range from primary to less than tertiary, so long as their screen time is relatively insignificant), nor is it the same as DeadStarWalking, because the intent is not to fool you into thinking that the actor will appear more often. The character just appears, gives a show-stealing performance, and then is gone. Like a SpearCarrier, only way more righteous. Like a {{Cameo}}, except you don't have to recognize the actor to appreciate the scene for all it's worth. You know you're dealing with this sort of character if you start referring to "their scene."
