I mean she's standing right next to him and it's very obvious. I'd say it's his dry humor that he deliberately doesn't acknowledge what the audience is laughing about. He wouldn't have said "you shouldn't laugh about that" unless that's the additional joke.
Ehm... I adjusted the volume to hear the joke. I know I'm normally an idiot, but I think I'd be needing some sleep.

That is amazing.
Adam Hills had a couple comedy specials where he has an interpreter and some of the jokes get 2 rounds of laughter as you see how it gets signed.
