How is that possible? if they were watching it, wouldn't they get what it was about? Or is this question one of those "I could tell you but then I'd have to kill you" sort of things?

That would lead to a bit of high turnover in the SS, I think.

Could it be that people can watch it, but they just can't hear it?

YES.
