Talk:The Fault in Our Cutie Marks/@comment-28723573-20160817172328/@comment-182470-20160820024924

Maybe you're right, Jonny. Or maybe it refers to the fact that no griffon we've seen has a cutie mark, nor has there been evidence in the show so far that such a thing is possible. So there's ample reason to believe that the CMC's "impossible problem" is giving someone what they want but, apparently, can never have: in this case, a cutie mark. Now, this doesn't prevent a twist ending where it turns out griffons can get cutie marks, especially since the discussion has been raised over certain merchandise and stuff, though I can't remember where. But the synopsis seems straightforward enough to put two and two together.
