Get the MacGuffin mug.A plot device that motivates the characters and advance the story, particularly one whose importance is accepted completely by the story's characters, yet from the audience's perspective it might be minimally explained or may test their suspension of disbelief if it is scrutinized. The device, usually an object, is common in films, especially thrillers.
It is important that the audience never actually see the MacGuffin. I dunno why.
The term "MacGuffin" was invented by Alfred Hitchcock; according to the Oxford English Dictionary, he explained the term in a 1939 lecture at Columbia University:
In regard to the tune, we have a name in the studio, and we call it the 'MacGuffin'. It is the mechanical element that usually crops up in any story. In crook stories it is always the necklace and in spy stories it is always the papers.

Interviewed in 1966 by François Truffaut, Hitchcock illustrated the term "MacGuffin" with this story:
It might be a Scottish name, taken from a story about two men in a train. One man says, 'What's that package up there in the baggage rack?' And the other answers, 'Oh that's a McGuffin.' The first one asks 'What's a McGuffin?' 'Well' the other man says, 'It's an apparatus for trapping lions in the Scottish Highlands.' The first man says, 'But there are no lions in the Scottish Highlands,' and the other one answers 'Well, then that's no McGuffin!' So you see, a McGuffin is nothing at all.

Get the macguffin mug.An exorbitantly over-priced shit hole of a restaurant located on the corner of 4th and Pine St. in Jamestown NY. Owned by a pompous, senile, and downright unpleasant crazed man affected by severe PTSD, MacDuff's is infamous for catering to approximately 50 gullible, senile, and rich old people annually, as well as being one of the greater rip-offs in the western hemisphere. No one likes the place, except those whose brains have become victim to severe atrophy and are lured into the establishment by the aforementioned owner's domineering demeanor. MacDuff's is one of those places that would be better off not existing, along with the assface of an owner.
Hey, what smells like rotten fish, death, cold cream, and napalm???
Oh, it's only MacDuff's. You get used to it after a while.
