So, one?

McGuffins

You sure do like using that word a lot.

They have no idea what it means

They seem to think it’s a derogatory term for a plot device for some odd reason.

Like, mention that a James Bond movie has a McGuffin and somehow that makes it a bad movie. Am I getting the mindset right?

Either way, suddenly I’m hungry for a McMuffin.

Apperently, things that drive the plot are bad now.

I thought we liked Indiana Jones movies. Well, the first three at least.

We're not supposed to like Temple of Doom. It was in the memo.

Definitely not Temple of Doom.
