First, db.auth_event.time_stamp.max() simply produces the following SQL:

MAX("auth_event"."time_stamp")

It is not a query, just an expression.

Second, your approach will not necessarily give you what you want, as there 
is no guarantee that the maximum timestamp value in the entire auth_event 
table happens to coincide with the most recent "connect" event (as opposed 
to some other type of event).

Instead, a better approach is to (reverse) order by timestamp and limit the 
select to the first record:

db(db.auth_event.description.contains('connect')).select(orderby=~db.
auth_event.time_stamp,
                                                         limitby=(0, 1))
