What the mynah bird said:  

"Don't go there"  (Ronette Pulaski also uttered these words in
a coma when Cooper tried to interview her.)
"Laura, no!"  (or something like that)
"Stop it, Leo!" (something like that)
"Hurting me"  (with the emphasis on the "ing", i.e. "hurtING me"

The "hurtING me" is a nice touch.  Often when you teach a bird to say
something, they learn it a little differently.  What the bird
probably heard was "you're hurting me".
