That confused me too. But the silver thing on the couch isn't the Macbook, probably a remote. The laptop is apparently still open on a table or something while he is asleep and somehow catching him perfectly in frame (yes, I am still skeptical of this).
Does this software (Hidden) work when the computer goes in to sleep mode? Because it's also odd that it's still alert even after he's taken the time to fall asleep on the couch.
