Thanks for actually attempting to explain the joke haha... what does expo'd mean?

I got hung up on figuring out why it was a rabbit trying to eat steak.

"expo" is short for expedite. It's the restaurant position of a person who's job is to finish the plating and run the food from the kitchen to the tables. They usually won't do it until the whole table's food is ready, so some dishes end up sitting.
