Where's the pin, and how's it exploited? (media.kbin.social)

I'm failing to understand the lichess.org practice exercise 'Exploit the Pin
#3'. I've arrived at the 'correct' move (Nxg5), but without any understanding of where there is a pin, and how it has been exploited. Can someone please enlighten me?

Oh! This is teaching you about the Tennison Gambit. That's a really solid move to introduce to any end game.
