speaking of the devil
The Free Dictionary gives the definition: speak/talk of the devil (humorous)
something that you say when a person you are talking about arrives and you are not expecting them. Apparently, Lisa went there and wasn't very impressed - oh, talk of the devil, here she is.
See if it suits the context
