Derek Lyle scored twice and set up another to inspire Queen of the South to victory at St Mirren.
Lyle fired home the opener after 12 minutes and then made it 2-1 in the 43rd minute with a low finish from close range, two minutes after Tom Walsh had crashed home the equaliser.
Lyle then set up Stephen Dobbie for the third.
Queen of the South move up to second in the Championship with St Mirren now rooted to the bottom of the table.
