Listen up, simpleton. This joke is all about a pun. An orphan is a kid without parents, and they crave a family to be loved and 'wanted.' But when the police are looking for a criminal, they also say that person is 'wanted.' The joke twists the emotional need for belonging into a literal interpretation by linking it to getting arrested. It's dark and clever, unlike you.
