HELP!!!!!!!

Read the passage from "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty."
"Not so fast! You're driving too fast!" said Mrs. Mitty. "What are you driving so fast for?" "Hmm?" said Walter Mitty. He looked at his wife, in the seat beside him, with shocked astonishment.
What is the effect of the dialogue in the excerpt?
(A) It suggests that Mrs. Mitty is an unreasonable and uncaring woman.

(B) It suggests that Mr. Mitty is so absorbed in his fantasies that he's unaware of the world around him.

(C) It suggests that Mrs. Mitty knows all about her husband's vibrant and exciting inner life.

(D) It suggests that Mr. Mitty dislikes dealing with real-life issues.
