What is a "MacGuffin"?
A MacGuffin is an object, event, or character in a story that serves as the driving force for the plot but is not inherently important to the story itself. Its main role is to motivate the characters and advance the narrative. The MacGuffin often holds significance for the characters but is not essential to the overall story, acting mainly as a plot device to propel the action and create tension.
