The correct answer is A.

All examples use the denotative meaning of the word "crash" that is its direct meaning. Only the first option, option A. uses the connotative meaning of the word "crash" that is secondary that is associated meaning of the word. Here the word "crash" means to go to the party unannounced or uninvited.
