tub spout diverter?

hello
im not sure what it is called but the kids were in the shower
somehow the mechanism which diverts the water from the spout to the shower fell off
I've tried a few ways to put it back but it doesnt seem to work. It's a plastic piece with a rubber o ring on the other side with the pin holding it up. Anyone have the time to elaborate on this I'd greatly appreciate it

Am I missing something here? Is this a special diverter that can't be replaced by one of the two diverter spouts I have put up? Why are you two guys attempting a repair on such a inexpensive fitting when it's so simple and easy just to replace it? It's cool to repair but I was just curious. Regards, Tom

Tom ..... because she has all the parts in her hand. If she can slip it back in - it will take 5 seconds and the thing works again
