I think that its either B, the host's responses to the woman, or C, the woman's excessive commentary. (I'm leaning more towards B, but i'm not sure.) 

One example that establishes irony is woman asking if the musician is "grateful" for being introduced to white people and the host's contradictory response. I hope this helped! :)

In "Arrangement in Black and White," by Dorothy Parker, the irony is conveyed through the host's responses to the woman.

<em>"He's over there by the bookcase," she said. "Let's wait till those people get through talking to him. Well, I think you're simply marvelous, giving this perfectly marvelous party for him, and having him meet all these white people, and all. Isn't he terribly grateful?"</em>

In the above statement, the host's contradictory statement and the use of the word <em>"grateful"</em> convey irony. In the setting, the guests remain the innocent parody of the society's prejudice whereas, the audience recognizes the racism.

Read the excerpt from The Common Sense of Bicycling: Bicycling for Ladies.

By straightening the knees and using the ankle movement freely, the rise of the knees may be lessened several inches. When the pedal is at the highest point, the toe should be raised and the heel lowered. . . . although the right pedal is at the highest point, the knee has made very little impression on the front skirt. The feet should be in line with the machine, turning neither in nor out. The knees must be kept pretty close to the machine and should not move laterally at any part of the circle. The arms should have a slight drop at the elbows. The handles should be about level with the saddle, but this will depend on relative length of arms and waist.

Dear Malcolm,
Houston ain’t that bad but it doesn’t have you. They’re known for BBQ which is too messy and burnt for me but the rodeo is is here. I went yesterday they had a huge carnival! With all kinds of games and oh my god the food, you would’ve died of happiness. Then there were bulls and sheep you could visit but I couldn’t bring myself to watch the bull riders. School starts up next week, wish me luck
Xoxo, Lila
