Explanation

Experiment

This is a dark pun. The setup compares an orphan, who doesn't have parents, with an apple. The punchline uses the word "picked" which means to pick an apple from a tree, but it also means that an orphan gets chosen for adoption by a family. The humor is derived from this comparison, which creates an unexpected and slightly disturbing connection between two concepts.
