Programmer: It’s because my actual project is classified…
Wife: What??? Are you saying you don’t trust me?!?
Programmer: HUMPF… ok, I tell you…

Original: Confidencial
Wife: Darling, you’ve never told me what you’re working on
Programmer: It’s because the project is classified…
Wife: What??? Are you saying you don’t trust me?!?
Programmer: HUMPF… ok, I’ll tell you…
…after a 15 minute watered down explanation.
Programmer: So, do you get it?
Wife: Uh, no… But now I just don’t care…
I would stick to calling it an explanation for dummies. “Watered down” could be understood as “simplified because it’s classified”, which misses the point.
And don’t use “now” in the last sentence. She never really cared, she was jus angry about the trust issue.
