"Clear the set!" said the director. Her crew had just spent all night

creating a breakaway floor under the purple carpet on the set of The
Mummy's Tomb. Finally, she would get a chance to see somebody fall
through it.
Suddenly, the producer strode onto the set. "Where is that good-for-
nothing director?" he grumbled. Then he spotted her sitting in her
director's chair across a great expanse of floor. He started to make his
way across the purple carpet to give her a piece of his mind about all
the money she was wasting.
Which statement best explains the text's use of dramatic irony?
A. When the producer decides to cross the purple carpet, the
audience is aware that he will fall through the breakaway floor.
B. When the producer decides to cross the purple carpet, the reader
knows he will yell at the director.
C. When the director prepares to see the breakaway floor in action,
the author gives few details about who will fall through.
D. When the director prepares to see the breakaway floor in action,
she anticipates seeing the producer embarrassed.
