Final answer:
The words that suggest Patrick is aggravated with Mary's doting or pampering are 'lock the nursery,' 'difficult Peter,' 'lost his temper.'
Step-by-step explanation:
The words that suggest Patrick is aggravated with Mary's doting or pampering are:
- 'And lock the nursery for a few days until I can get over this.'
- 'You know how difficult Peter is about that. When I punished him a month ago by locking it for even a few hours - the way he lost his temper! And Wendy too. They live for the nursery.'
- 'It's got to be locked, that's all there is to it.'
These quotes indicate Patrick's frustration and irritability towards Mary's excessive attention and indulgence towards the nursery and their children.
