A giraffe sticks its neck out from a hole from below. Two people in the room are in complete shock.
A giraffe is native to African Savannah and would not be in the middle of a city area sticking their heads from holes.
Why is the giraffe there?
I know it's not an elephant, but we still need to talk about it.

A play on the phrase "elephant in the room," which refers to a topic that's obvious to everyone, but is hard/uncomfortable to discuss. Here, it's not a literal elephant, it's a giraffe. Nonetheless, the man is suggesting that despite the misalignment with the idiom, they need to talk about doing something about the giraffe in their living room.
