What does Mitch whisper to Abby in their house?

I have always wondered, in the scene where Mitch whispers in Abby's ear...

can anyone lip-read any of what he is saying to her?

Any of the words at all?

Something along lines of " I've just discovered I'm working for the mafia, the house is bugged" I would imagine?

Yes that is my guess but I'm wondering if there's anyone particularly good at lip-reading that can actually make out his exact words.

"The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog"
..or....
"The chair is against the wall. John has a long mustache"

My "#3" key is broken so I'm putting one here so i can cut & paste with it.

It doesn't matter because the dumb ***** throws it all away by running out of their house screaming like a banshee.

I always thought that was just a ploy to get out of the house.

No, just a moment of sheer panic induced by fear on her part.

Yeah, that would make more sense given that in the very next scene she can be seen running away scared sh*tless from the house!

You're nice, but I'm really more attracted to your brother.

This scene was inspired by a similar scene in All the President's Men, which was why Hal Holbrook was cast in The Firm.
