Well? How did Henry know that she was talking in her sleep? I mean where they sleeping together?
obviously the inference is they had sex. and that's the joke
Henry: "I'm just as human as the next man"
Indy: "I WAS the next man!"

You are making idiotic assumptions and using them as a defence.
We do not know what Elsa said in her sleep to give her away. Even so, you are also assuming Henry heard her and instantly KNEW she was a Nazi.
Where as he could have heard her say "something", and this was a simple first clue that lead him into discovering she was a Nazi later.
And so, God came forth and proclaimed widescreen is the best.

Exactly, so there's no argument for either side.
The line is meant to be informative and funny at the same time.
And everyone who "talks in there sleep" does it differently. Some people reflect on conversations they had earlier that day, others say things on their minds, and others just speak in word salad.
You're obsessing too much over a minor detail. Henry heard her say something that made him deduce her duplicity. Henry is ultra intelligent and made a proper deduction.
She could've gone over a conversation with Donovon or the Nazi Commander in German while she was asleep.
Either way, it's hilarious and not meant to be disected. -

I just watched this again today and this part made more sense to me than before.
The context of what is said is:
Jones Sr.: "I knew she wasn't to be trusted."
Jones Jr.: "How's that?"
Jones Sr.: "She talks in her sleep."
So it was more of Jones Sr. saying that he suspected Elsa as untrustworthy because of the mere fact of her talking in her sleep and coming across as shifty and mischievous -

Except that's not the dialogue. The actual dialogue was as follows:
Indy: "How did you know she was a nazi?"
Henry: "She talks in her sleep."
[Exchange of glances]
Henry: "I didn't trust her. Why did you?"
So, in other words, it wasn't that Henry deemed Elsa as
untrustworthy
because she talked in her sleep he never trusted her to begin with. But because of whatever she said in her sleep, he knew she was a nazi. -

I always assumed it was a euphemism for her slipping up during/after sex.
How could her political/ideological affiliations possibly come up during or after sex?
"Yes! Spank my nazi ass!"
Or
"Mmmmm, you are much better than Colonel Vogel. Oh, schnap, did I say that out loud?"
Sorry, I just don't see it.
